Episode 298 · Mini Miracles From Minor Moments Have you ever said the right words but still felt completely misunderstood? This week on Mini Miracles From Minor Moments, I'm exploring something that touches every single relationship in your life — the tone, pace, and pitch of your voice. The way we say something carries just as much meaning as the words themselves. This episode gathers several short reflections recorded over recent weeks, all pointing toward one central truth: how we communicate shapes how we connect. What This Episode Is About From a morning full of mini-miracles — emissions tests, quick errands, and a license plate sticker that finally got done — to a thoughtful look at guarding your mind against fear and self-doubt, this episode is a warm collection of everyday wisdom. I talk about building emotional and physical endurance, the discipline of small daily habits, and the art of focusing on joy even when life is heavy. Woven through all of it is a longer reflection on the voice — how our intonation, pitch, and pace tell people far more than we realize, and how a simple smile in your voice can change everything. I also share some personal moments from my week — a cornea injury that a chance conversation with an orthopedic doctor helped catch, a pair of sunglasses still missing since Mother's Day, and the exciting launch of my Art Therapy group, which is now meeting on Thursday afternoons. These are the minor moments that carry real meaning, if we stay awake to them. Main Talking Points Mini-Miracles Happen When You Least Expect Them A morning that flowed — errands done, sticker on the plate, still on time for an appointment — is a reminder to stay positive and keep moving. When things pile up, a peaceful mindset makes all the difference. Guarding Your Mind Is a Daily Practice Negative thoughts, comparison, fear, and the need to control things can creep in quietly. Training your thoughts during peaceful moments is what pushes destructive thinking out. Emotional endurance grows from patience, self-awareness, and reflection. Small Physical Habits Move You Forward Whether it's making the bed, taking a walk, or drinking more water, the small things we repeat build momentum. Even a half-mile walk counts. Honoring the commitments you make to yourself strengthens your identity and keeps joy within reach. Focus on the Good, Especially When Life Is Hard Life always brings sadness, illness, and loss. Choosing to call up joyful memories — a kind person at the bank, a warm summer day, a photo wall of good times — is not denial. It is a discipline that keeps us open to the miracles right in front of us. Your Voice Is an Emotional Soundtrack The tone, pace, and pitch of your voice communicate emotions that words alone cannot carry. Speaking with urgency raises the other person's anxiety; slowing down anchors them. Whether you want to inspire, comfort, or simply be understood, a calm and intentional voice makes all the difference. The Same Words Land Differently for Everyone A boss can address the same group and leave one person motivated, another insulted. We have to ask ourselves: how do I want the person on the other side to receive what I'm saying? Tone in texts and emails carries meaning too — short and direct can feel cold even when we don't intend it. Put a Smile in Your Voice People can tell if you are truly smiling when you speak — over the phone, in a counseling session, even in a voicemail. When we are preoccupied or distracted, our voice gives us away. Being present in our tone is one of the most generous things we can offer the people we care about.

Detailed Sermon Summary “Standing Where God Made a Way” Pastor Bryan Hudson, D.Min. Part 5 of the “Rooted & Grounded” Watch the 14 minute video: "The Road to Juneteenth" Pastor Bryan Hudson's sermon, “Standing Where God Made a Way,” connects the biblical account of Israel crossing the Jordan River in Joshua 4 with the historical meaning of Juneteenth. The central message is that believers, families, communities, and nations must remember the places where God brought deliverance, because remembrance preserves gratitude, identity, wisdom, and responsibility. The sermon begins by framing Juneteenth as more than a national holiday. It is presented as a memorial of deliverance and a reminder that God makes a way where there is no way. Dr. Hudson connects Juneteenth to the broader biblical theme of God delivering people from bondage, especially Israel's deliverance from Egypt and later their crossing into the Promised Land. He also references his video, “The Road to Juneteenth,” which traces the journey from emancipation declared to freedom enforced. Joshua 4: Remembering the Crossing The primary Scripture is Joshua 4:1–11, where God commands Joshua to have twelve men, one from each tribe of Israel, take twelve stones from the Jordan River after the people crossed on dry ground. These stones were to be set up as a memorial so that future generations would ask, “What do these stones mean?” The answer would preserve the story of how God cut off the waters of the Jordan and brought His people through. Dr. Hudson explains that this crossing parallels the Red Sea crossing under Moses forty years earlier. In both cases, God removed a barrier that His people could not remove on their own. The Jordan River was not always deep, but it did flood seasonally. God stopped the waters so Israel could cross, then instructed them to take stones from the riverbed—stones that were normally hidden—and make them visible as a testimony. A key insight is that the stones were not objects of worship. They were reminders of the God who acted. The stones pointed beyond themselves to God's power, faithfulness, and deliverance. Juneteenth as a Stone of Remembrance Dr. Hudson then connects Joshua's stones to Juneteenth. Just as Israel needed memorial stones to remember deliverance, African Americans and the nation need Juneteenth as a memorial of freedom delayed, freedom enforced, and freedom remembered. He explains that the Emancipation Proclamation was issued in 1862 and took effect on January 1, 1863, but freedom was not fully enforced in Texas until June 19, 1865, when Union troops arrived in Galveston and announced General Order No. 3. This shows one of the sermon's major historical lessons: freedom declared is not always freedom practiced. Justice often requires enforcement. Juneteenth, therefore, is not merely a celebration. It is a memorial, an educational moment, and a call to remember both God's deliverance and the human struggle required for justice. Theological Foundation: Human Dignity and the Image of God A major theological point in the sermon is that all people are made in the image and likeness of God. Because of this, no person or group has the right to dominate, dehumanize, enslave, or exploit another. Dr. Hudson emphasizes the importance of saying “enslaved people” rather than simply “slaves.” To call someone a slave can make bondage sound like their identity. But their true identity is that they were human beings made in God's image who were enslaved by others. This point becomes the moral foundation for the sermon's critique of slavery, racism, domination, and exploitation. Slavery was especially evil because it involved humans made in God's image enslaving other humans made in God's image. A Sober View of American History The sermon also calls for honesty about American history. Dr. Hudson says Juneteenth should never have been necessary. If the nation had truly lived up to biblical principles from the beginning, enslaving Africans would never have been tolerated. He notes that the founders debated slavery and compromised in order to form the nation. Some opposed slavery, while others wanted to preserve it because of the economic benefits of free labor. That compromise, he explains, carried a terrible cost and eventually helped lead to the Civil War. Dr. Hudson does not reject love for the nation, but he urges listeners to avoid “rosy narratives” that ignore the blood, suffering, and injustice woven into the nation's history. The proper response is gratitude mixed with sobriety, remembrance, and responsibility. God Still Makes a Way The sermon repeatedly returns to the message that there are always barriers to cross. God parted the Red Sea under Moses. God stopped the Jordan River under Joshua. God made a way for enslaved people through emancipation and enforcement. And God still makes a way for His people today. Dr. Hudson says that today's breakthroughs may not always look as dramatic as the Red Sea or Jordan crossings, but the principle remains the same: when God brings people through obstacles, they should remember, testify, and move forward in faith. Memorials Are Educational Another key theme is that memorials are meant to teach. In Joshua 4, the stones were designed to provoke questions from children. When the children asked what the stones meant, the older generation was responsible to explain God's deliverance. Dr. Hudson applies this to holidays such as Juneteenth, Thanksgiving, Easter, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and others. These are not merely days off or occasions for celebration. They are opportunities to educate, remember sacrifice, and pass meaning to the next generation. He warns that routines, celebrations, and comfort can obscure legacy. People can enjoy the benefits of history without remembering the sacrifice that made those benefits possible. Therefore, remembrance must be intentional. Standing Where God Made a Way The title phrase, “Standing Where God Made a Way,” captures the sermon's central conviction. Dr. Hudson teaches that many of us are living in places of blessing that exist because God worked through previous generations. We are standing on ground made possible by God's intervention, people's prayers, sacrifices, faith, courage, and perseverance. This applies personally, spiritually, historically, and nationally. We stand where parents, grandparents, ancestors, saints, activists, soldiers, and faithful servants endured hardship so future generations could live differently. Twelve Contemporary Stones of Remembrance Near the end, Dr. Hudson gives twelve “stones” that people and families can set up as memorials today. These are practices and places that help preserve memory, identity, and gratitude: Education — learning the truth and teaching it to others. Vicarious living — learning through the lives and experiences of others rather than repeating their mistakes. Identification — seeing oneself connected to faithful and courageous people from the past. Honoring — highly valuing parents, elders, ancestors, and those who made sacrifices. Testimony — telling what God has done personally and collectively. Studying history — learning the real story, not only simplified or sanitized versions. Serving others — turning remembrance into action. Shared experience — building memories and meaning together as families and communities. Museums — places such as Freetown Village that preserve and teach history. Family gatherings — moments that connect generations. Anniversaries — recurring opportunities to remember God's faithfulness. Juneteenth — a national and spiritual stone of remembrance that points to deliverance, justice, and responsibility. These “stones” help people stay rooted. They prevent forgetfulness. They help connect the present generation to legacy and history. Final Exhortation The sermon closes with a call to preserve memories that are worth preserving. Dr. Hudson urges listeners to be intentional with their children, grandchildren, families, and communities. If people do not connect present blessings with past deliverance, they may lose their way in the future. The final prayer thanks God for His goodness, for ancestors and heroes known and unknown, and for the fact that we are standing where God made a way. The prayer also asks God to help His people remember, honor, educate, and never take His blessings—or the people He used—for granted. Core Message The sermon's core message is: God makes a way through impossible barriers, and His people must remember where He brought them from. Memorials—whether stones, holidays, testimonies, museums, family stories, or historical observances like Juneteenth—help us honor God, educate future generations, and move forward without forgetting the sacrifices that made our present blessings possible.

Isaiah 30:17 uses the imagery of a banner on a hill to describe visibility, identity, and the reality that what is lifted up becomes a symbol others recognize and respond to. In this devotional, Lynette Kittle reflects on the meaning of the American flag as a national symbol and explores how honoring it connects to gratitude for freedom, sacrifice, and heritage. She emphasizes the flag not just as fabric, but as a representation of unity, history, and the values a nation seeks to uphold. Highlights Isaiah 30:17 uses “banner” imagery to represent identity and visibility. The American flag is presented as a symbol of freedom and national unity. Flags historically represent leadership, belonging, and shared values. The U.S. flag reflects the history and sacrifices tied to national freedom. Symbols can serve as reminders of heritage and collective responsibility. Gratitude for freedom can lead to reflection on God’s providence. National symbols often carry emotional and cultural significance. Honoring heritage can encourage unity and respect within a nation.

Full Transcript Below: Why Honoring Our Flag Pleases God By Lynette Kittle Bible Reading: “A thousand will flee at the threat of one; at the threat of five you will all flee away, till you are left like a flagstaff on a mountaintop, like a banner on a hill.” - Isaiah 30:17 Individuals and groups have stomped on it, carried it upside down, cut it up, and burned it, yet our nation’s flag keeps on flying and representing to many around the world, even if not to some in the United States, a sign of hope and true freedom. On this 250th Anniversary of the birth of our nation, our American flag is a worldwide symbol of freedom on this earth. Hands down, it is considered the most recognizable flag in the world as a symbol of freedom. When we honor our flag, remembering its history of how God led Christians to establish it, we honor God, because He is accredited with the birth of our nation. “Of course, it’s just a symbol,” notes Dr. Jerry Newcombe, Executive Director of Providence Forum, “but it’s a powerful one. To me, it represents the American story - self-rule under God.” Many who disrespect and spit on our flag do so because they hate the history ascribed to it and our nation’s long-held slogan of being “one nation under God.” Newcombe believes we should honor our flag because it honors God and our country. “A lot of blood was shed defending that flag,” he explains, “and it represents the freedom we enjoy.” Flag Day, celebrated each June 14th, commemorates the day our Continental Congress adopted the original American flag in 1777, made official in 1916 by President Woodrow Wilson. Growing up, many of us in the United States memorized and recited The Pledge of Allegiance, a pledge “written by a Baptist minister in the 1890s, with the ‘under God’ phrase added in the 1950s,” notes Newcombe. The Purpose of Flags Used primarily throughout history in warfare to announce battles and identify troops, national flags still play a role in distinguishing friend from foe. Culturally, the flag symbolizes power and leadership, carried during military processions and announcing dignitaries. They represent the people and beliefs behind them, of the hands that hold and carry them, and the buildings where they are flown. Flags also serve to draw together and rally people for unified causes, flown to signal, decorate, and display in parades and at events. As well, flags declare ownership, borders, and jurisdiction in homelands and foreign lands. Nations around the globe use them to communicate to the masses the loss of leaders and the mourning of national tragedies and disasters. The United States flag drapes the caskets of our fallen military heroes and veterans when they are being transported from the combat zones to home and at their funerals. The Meaning Displayed in America’s Flag America’s flag has 13 red and white stripes, each representing the original 13 colonies that began our nation, along with 50 white stars set on a blue background representing our current 50 states. There is significant meaning within the American flag’s design, as the Founder of Providence Forum, Dr. Peter Lillback notes. Each color displayed on the American flag has a definite meaning, with red standing for hardiness and valor; white for purity and innocence, and blue for perseverance, justice, and vigilance. Unlike some believe, even though Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag, the design is accredited to one of the original signers of the Declaration of Independence, Francis Hopkinson. Our American Flag Stirs Hearts Our American flag is a vital piece of America’s history, representing freedom for all, known to stir the hearts of its patriotic citizens. It’s a symbol that has inspired our nation through many troubles and conflicts, standing for life, liberty, justice, and freedom for all. In honoring it, we please God by recognizing the godly heritage it represents throughout the history of our nation and the world.

For nearly two and a half centuries, they were forgotten beneath the soil near Lake George, New York. No marked graves stood above them. No descendants visited to leave flowers.

What does it take to create one of the most abrasive, unsettling metal records of the 21st century? In this episode of Riff Worship, we dive into the shadows to dissect the terrifying sonic legacy of the UK's most elusive extreme music collective: Dragged Into Sunlight. Formed in 2006 by a group of anonymous DIY veterans, Dragged Into Sunlight have spent the last two decades weaponizing a volatile and uncompromising blend of sludge, death metal, black metal, and noise. Creating exclusively for themselves, the band permanently scarred the extreme music landscape with their 2009 landmark debut, Hatred for Mankind.This week we'll discuss:Dragged Into Sunlight's mysterious origins and their experimental, 19-minute long collaborative assault with Liverpool noise artist Kas Mana, Terminal Aggressor.The grueling, sleepless recording sessions of their debut album and the monolithic production made possible by legendary engineers Tom Dring (Corrupt Moral Altar) and Billy Anderson (Eyehategod, Melvins, Neurosis).Honoring the visceral, iconic, hand-drawn cover artwork by the late, brilliant Justin Bartlett. The band's infatuation with true crime, the cold reality behind their notorious serial killer samples, and the first-hand professional insight of working inside a Texas Death Row facility.From the pummeling riffs of ‘Boiled Angel' and ‘To Hieron' to the horrific ambience of ‘Totem of Skulls'—leave the hallway light on and join us as we celebrate a modern masterpiece of misery.Recommendations:Khann - ErodeU.S. Christmas - Run Thick In The NightFollow Riff WorshipInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/riffworshippod/Twitter: https://x.com/RiffWorshipPodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@RiffWorshipPodCheck out our Official Playlists:Riffs on Repeat (Spotify)Riffs on Repeat (YouTube Music)Hits from the Crypt (Apple)

What if the quiet revolution drawing hundreds of millions into daily scripture study—and toward the Savior himself—began with a single question: does anyone actually read this? Brother Mike Madsen, Program Manager for Gospel Learning and Teaching, pulls back the curtain on Come Follow Me, the coming shift to a shorter Sunday schedule, and a teacher-led journey through David and Goliath that finds Christ in a shepherd boy's sling.YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/tHSNfRcv7uMFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook WEEKLY NEWSLETTERhttps://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter SOCIAL MEDIAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTIMECODE0:00 - Part 1 - Brother Michael Madsen1:44 First Impressions of David: Example or Warning?3:20 Bio4:04 The origins of Come, Follow Me4:50 A family of seven studying in a 10x10 shipping container6:39 Fiji, Africa and the Philippines: The Global Ripple Effect7:26 They didn't see podcasts, seminary alignment, conversations at home8:39 Podcasts shouldn't supplant scripture study (Look for “study skills”)10:07 The Savior's invitations to feast on the word12:15 Honoring the unnamed writers behind the curriculum13:54 The Why behind the new 25-minute Sunday schedule15:10 Igniting fires, not filling containers (more containers)19:50 Inside the optimism and joy of the Church Office Building21:43 Is the Church actually growing?23:33 Come, Follow Me Manual24:48 Four questions for any picture27:06 Goliath's size and armor (and Scripture Study Helps)28:43 “How would it feel?” and facing the giant29:51 The number 4032:29 Israel's demand for a king: the “I/he/his disease”34:45 David speaks: “The armies of the living God”36:31 A different style of warfare38:16 The lion and the bear as divine preparation40:42 Mike's “primary teacher” pride story42:27 Trying on Saul's armor and 5 smooth stones43:13 Pick a character: “The Battle is the Lord's”46:00 How a sling actually works (and the marshmallow story)49:55 The power of silence in teaching50:37 “What do you learn?” and running toward the army52:12 Evan and the locker room54:15 Teach about Jesus Christ, no matter what lesson you teach55:50 David as a type of Christ57:32 Jonathan strips off his robe1:00:57 Saul's jealousy creeps in1:04:35 Saul's pursuit and David flees to Samuel1:05:02 Where jealousy originates.

Liminal time is that time between "no longer" and "not yet." It is something we experience in many seasons of our lives — something we see now as we enter the season of graduations and weddings. Other experiences of liminal time, though, come not by choice but by loss. This episode explores how the two most important factors in helping us when we find ourselves in the "in between" times are spirituality and community.

Episode Description In this episode of the Lead Ministry Podcast, Josh Denhart sits down with Vance Martin from Slingshot Group to unpack nine principles for leading up to your senior leader. They walk through the often-invisible work of building trust, bringing solutions, anticipating needs, and avoiding the trap of forming alliances against the very person God has placed above you. If you've ever felt like your boss doesn't see you, doesn't get you, or doesn't appreciate what you bring to the table, this episode will reframe how you show up for them — and how they will eventually show up for you. No Surprises – Why blindsiding your leader breaks trustBring Solutions, Not Problems – How to lift weight, not add itDon't Try to Fix Your Leader – Pray, don't correctForm Loyalty, Not Alliances – Why “venting” with teammates is gossipAnticipate Their Needs – Knowing rhythms, deadlines, and pressure points “Gossip isn't processing. If you're venting about your leader with teammates, you're tearing the team apart.” Proverbs 25:13 – Faithful messengers refresh their leadersMatthew 7:3-5 – The plank in your own eyeRomans 13:1 – Submission to authorityHebrews 13:17 – Honoring those who lead you Leading up isn't about getting your way. It's about building trust, honoring alignment, and being a follower worth following. The invisible, faithful, intentional work you do behind the scenes is what creates the visible fruit everyone sees. We hope this episode encourages and equips you.

Today, we chat with pastor and author Brian Zahnd for a wide-ranging conversation about faith deconstruction, theological reimagining, and the journey of losing — and rediscovering — Jesus. Brian shares how, after 30 years of ministry, he found himself rethinking core evangelical doctrines including hell, the Bible's role as foundation, and the nature of God, ultimately arriving at the conviction that "God is like Jesus." He candidly recounts the painful fallout of losing 1,000 church members through that process, the healing that followed, and why he believes the discomfort of deconstruction is not a crisis of faith but a necessary path to spiritual growth. The episode also touches on his new book Unseen Existences, which is out now! Such a powerful episode. Find Brian's church HERE. Pick up one of Brian's books HERE. Read Brian's Substack HERE.

Show Notes: Author Erin Mitchell Crawford shares her journey through loss following the death of her nine-year-old son, Hayes. Erin discusses her book, Held: 30 Days of Prayer Through Grief, which originated from her own raw prayers and reflections during her darkest moments.

In this heartfelt episode of Reading With Your Kids, Jed welcomes two very special guests whose books invite families into powerful conversations about love, loss, culture, and courage. First, Jed chats with Bianca Pierce, debut picture book author of On the Ranch with Cowboy Luke. Inspired by her brother Luke, a real Montana cowboy who passed away unexpectedly in 2025, Bianca created the book as a tangible way for his daughters – and young readers everywhere – to know who he was and what ranch life is really like. She describes long, frosty winters, calving season, training horses, fixing fences, and the grit it takes to work the land year-round. Bianca shares how the project became a healing journey for her family, how closely she worked with her illustrator to capture Luke accurately (down to his real outfits and tack), and how kids love the interactive seek-and-find page that sends them back through the story spotting hidden animals. Then Jed reconnects with Malia Maunakea to celebrate her new middle-grade novel The Shark Prince. Drawing from the Hawaiian legend of Nanaue, Malia follows 13-year-old Noheyah as he wrestles with a terrifying family curse, big emotions, bullying, and questions about what it really means to be "a man." Malia talks about honoring Hawaiian culture, researching legends deeply, and using fantasy to help kids explore generational trauma, identity, and healthy ways to cope with anger and fear. She also reflects on how writing these stories has changed her and sparked rich discussions with kids both in Hawaii and on the mainland.

The Book of Judges ends in total moral chaos, with everyone doing "what is right in their own eyes." But right against that dark backdrop, a young foreign widow named Ruth and a heartbroken, barren mother named Hannah shine a brilliant light. If you feel surrounded by a spiritual famine, their stories are the ultimate anchor. Summary: In this episode, we bridge the gap between the chaotic era of the Judges and the dawn of the Kings of Israel by studying the Book of Ruth and 1 Samuel 1–7. We move past the surface history to uncover deep covenants of loyalty, the anatomy of desperate prayer, and the power of remembering the Lord's help. The Oasis of Ruth: We explore how the story of Ruth and Naomi serves as the absolute antithesis of pride. We look at Ruth's radical commitment to stay on the covenant path ("whither thou goest, I will go") even when it cost her worldly security. Famine in the House of Bread: We analyze the irony of Elimelech leaving Bethlehem—which literally means "House of Bread"—during a famine, and what it teaches us about seeking spiritual sustenance outside of the covenant. Hannah's Desperate Prayer: We dive into 1 Samuel 1, contrasting the shallow religion of Eli's sons with the agonizing, silent prayer of Hannah. We learn how she moved from wanting a son for her own status to vowing to "lend him to the Lord" for life. The Call of Samuel: We study the transition of prophetic power to a young boy who simply learned to say, "Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth." Raising Your Ebenezer: We break down the battle of Mizpeh in 1 Samuel 7. We discover what an Ebenezer—a "stone of help"—actually is, and why setting up markers of God's past deliverance is the only way to keep our hearts from wandering. Call-to-Action: Samuel set up a stone and declared, "Hitherto hath the Lord helped us."

February 4, 2019Adam and Dr. Drew open the show with Drew asking Adam if he has heard about the recent comments made by David Alan Grier on the Howard Stern Show and how Adam interpreted them. The guys go deep in trying to understand the meaning behind his comments and how he came to believe the things he was saying. Dr. Drew also makes an impassioned plea for Adam to reach out and try to get a dialogue going with DAG in an attempt to salvage the friendship. They then turn to the phones and speak with a caller that has questions about the pros & cons of micro dosing and another whose girlfriend has a child with autism and is wondering about the potential should they have a child together.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the Iranian regime has no intention of honoring any deal. They view negotiations merely as opportunities to delay while pursuing their goal of conquering and converting others through violence, as they believe Allah commands. The regime exists not to govern but to expand its influence worldwide. Also, Mount Zion—the literal 4,000-year-old birthplace of Judaism in what critics call Israel's disputed or occupied territory—predates Islam, Christianity, and any notion of Palestinians. Jew-haters and Israel-haters use “Zionist” as a supposed distinction from “Jew,” yet there would be no Jews without Mount Zion. Under President Polk, when Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Washington, Oregon, and California were added 180 years ago despite Mexico's claims; no one today debates those states as “occupied territory,” nor questions that Americans live on land taken from Indian tribes 140 years ago. Yet Israel must endlessly defend its far older homeland against the same logic. Later, the birthright citizenship Supreme Court decision will demand courage to rule correctly - failure to do so would inflict severe, lasting damage on the nation. Some weaker Republican justices may uphold the status quo to avoid intense personal backlash from the left while the left operates a well-organized, networked, and well-funded militia that confronts ICE and local police across the country. Finally, with the election on Tuesday Rep Chip Roy calls in to update his run for Texas Attorney General. Roy also talks about the effort to Islamify Texas. Islam is primarily a political ideology masquerading behind the First Amendment to wage jihad against the West. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
