Harvesting, Milling, and Cooking with Arizona's Native SuperfoodIn this episode we explore mesquites as a desert food source, hosted by Romey Romero & Farmer Greg. This episodes guests are Peggy Sue Creekmore and Mike Clow and we explore one of the Sonoran Desert's most abundant and overlooked food sources: mesquite beans. The conversation covers how to identify quality mesquite trees, harvest pods safely, dry them properly, and turn them into nutritious mesquite flour using a community hammer mill. Listeners learn why mesquite has been a staple food for centuries, how it compares to conventional flour, and how to transform this free local resource into delicious baked goods, drinks, and snacks. The episode also highlights educational workshops, harvesting walks, and community milling opportunities.Key Topics & EntitiesMesquite bean harvestingMesquite flour productionCommunity hammer mill projectNative desert food systemsPeggy Sue CreekmoreMike ClowFarmer Greg PetersonSonoran Desert edible plantsPalo verde beansCarob podsIronwood seedsAflatoxin preventionBruchid beetlesUrban Farm mesquite milling eventsKey Questions AnsweredWhy is mesquite considered a valuable food source?Mesquite pods are highly nutritious, naturally sweet, gluten-free, and rich in protein. Indigenous peoples and desert communities have relied on mesquite as a staple food across the Southwest and northern Mexico for centuries.Do all mesquite trees produce good-tasting pods?No. While all mesquite pods are technically edible, flavor varies significantly from tree to tree. Some are sweet and pleasant, while others can be chalky or have an unpleasant aftertaste. Tasting pods before harvesting is essential.What does mesquite flour taste like?Mesquite flour has a naturally sweet flavor often compared to graham crackers, caramel, or malt. Many recipes require little or no additional sugar because of the flour's natural sweetness.When is mesquite harvesting season?Mesquite pods typically begin ripening in June, although weather and elevation can shift timing earlier or later. Pods should be fully tan, dry, and free of green coloration before harvesting.How should mesquite pods be harvested?Harvest pods directly from the tree rather than from the ground. Many harvesters use a tarp and gently shake or tap branches to collect ripe pods.Why shouldn't pods be collected from the ground?Ground-harvested pods can develop mold and aflatoxins, which may contaminate community milling equipment and reduce food safety.How can harvested pods be stored properly?Pods should be dried thoroughly in shallow boxes, baskets, dehydrators, ovens, or even a parked vehicle. Moisture is the primary cause of spoilage and milling problems.What is a mesquite hammer mill?A hammer mill is a specialized machine that pulverizes entire mesquite pods, including seeds and pod walls, into flour. Traditional grain mills cannot process mesquite effectively because its natural sugars gum up the machinery.What can be made with mesquite flour?Mesquite flour can be used in cookies, muffins, crepes, breads, energy balls, beverages, and other baked goods. It works particularly well in low-temperature baking and gluten-free recipes.What happens to the material that doesn't become flour?The coarse material, often called "chunky bits" or chaff, can be used to make tea, brewing mash, and other food products.Episode HighlightsMesquite flour is naturally sweet enough to reduce or eliminate added sugar in many recipes.Flavor quality varies dramatically between mesquite trees, making tasting an important step before harvesting.A mature mesquite tree can produce more than 100 pounds of pods in a season.Harvesters should only collect pods directly from the tree to prevent mold contamination.Proper drying is the single most important factor for successful milling.The Urban Farm community hammer mill converts harvested pods into food-grade flour.Mesquite flour is gluten-free and requires binders such as eggs, chia, or applesauce when baking.Desert trees such as palo verde, carob, ironwood, and mesquite offer significant edible resources often overlooked by modern food systems.Calls to Action & ResourcesMesquite Harvesting Walks — https://urbanfarm.org/mesquiteMesquite Milling Appointments — https://urbanfarm.org/mesquiteUrban Farm Educational Programs — https://urbanfarm.orgDesert Food Tree Guide — https://learn.desertkitchen.net/treesVisit www.UrbanFarm.org/990 for the show notes and links on this episode!Need a little bit of advice or just a feedback on your design for your yard or garden?The Urban Farm Team is offering consults over the phone or zoom.

This is the final part in our series. This time we talk about different grains. Not the normal mash bill for sure. Hope you enjoy.Badmotivatorbarrels.com/shop/?aff=3https://www.instagram.com/zsmithwhiskeyandmixology?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==While whiskey is traditionally made from the "big four" grains—barley, corn, rye, and wheat—distillers are increasingly using alternative grains to introduce unique flavors, textures, and aromas. These non-traditional grains allow craft distillers to differentiate their products and push the boundaries of classic whiskey profiles.Common Alternate Grains and Their EffectsDistillers choose specific alternative grains primarily for their impact on the final spirit's flavor profile and mouthfeel.Oats: Used to create an exceptionally creamy, oily texture and a dense mouthfeel. They add a mellow, oatmeal-like sweetness and are often used as a "balancer" to smooth out harsher grains like rye.Millet: Known for providing a gentle sweetness with distinct nutty and anise-like (licorice) undertones. It is historically used in African brewing and is prized by some for producing a smoother spirit than corn.Quinoa: Imparts a bold, nutty, and earthy character. Though challenging to work with due to its small size and bitter coating, it is highly expressive; even a small percentage in a mash bill can significantly alter the taste.Sorghum: Offers a rich, earthy depth with smoky or maple-like notes. It is versatile, as the plant can produce syrup for rum-style spirits and grain for whiskey-style spirits.Rice (Brown Rice): Adds a toasty, nutty flavor and an oily texture. Some distillers note a unique "sweet potato" aroma that pairs well with the vanilla notes from oak aging.Buckwheat: Technically a "pseudo-grain," it lends a distinctly earthy, floral, and nutty body, sometimes reminiscent of roasted pistachios or hazelnuts.Triticale: A human-made hybrid of wheat and rye. It is used to achieve the spiciness of rye but with the soft, sweet finish of wheat.Distilleries Using Alternative GrainsKoval Distillery (Chicago, IL): A pioneer in the space, Koval offers a 100% Millet Whiskey known for its clean, nutty, and floral profile. They also produce an Oat Whiskey and a "Four Grain" expression that blends oats with malted barley, rye, and wheat.Corsair Distillery (Nashville, TN): Known for experimental "alt-grain" releases, Corsair produces a Quinoa Whiskey (80% malted barley, 20% quinoa) which adds distinct earthy and nutty notes. Their "Grainiac" 9-grain bourbon includes corn, barley, rye, wheat, oats, quinoa, triticale, spelt, and buckwheat.High West Distillery (Park City, UT): Produces Valley Tan, a whiskey inspired by Mormon pioneer recipes that blends wheat and oats.High Wire Distilling Co. (Charleston, SC): Known for their "Southern Revival" series, they produce a 100% Sorghum Whiskey using grain grown in Tennessee, offering a profile that some compare to Scotch.Alchemy Distillery (Arcata, CA): They recently released a Bottled-in-Bond Quinoa Whiskey made from grain grown just miles from the distillery.Pine Bluffs Distilling (Pine Bluffs, WY): Offers an Oat Whiskey with a mash bill featuring 36% oats, noted for its smooth texture and vanilla-honey notes.Dakota Spirits Distillery (Pierre, SD): Produces 1804 Oat Whiskey, highlighting the grain's smooth, drinkable quality.Cathead Distillery (Jackson, MS): Debuted a Sorghum Grain Straight Bourbon Whiskey in 2025, using the actual sorghum grain rather than just the syrup.Whiskey Del Bac (Tucson, AZ – popular in the region): Though known for Mesquite-smoked barley, they frequently experiment with regional heritage grains.Hinterhaus Distilling (Arnold, CA – frequently discussed in regional whiskey circles): Often explores unique mash bills that depart from the standard four grains.

A sixth-grade teacher told Patricia Lee Lewis her story "could never have happened." She stopped writing creatively until she was in her forties. At 88, she just published her debut historical novel, Thorns of the Mesquite — 15 years in the making. In this conversation we talk about the writing workshop that cracked her open in her mid-forties, why treating your pain as fiction can set you free, what curiosity looks like at 88, and why she believes community is our most powerful tool right now. Patricia Lee Lewis is an award-winning poet, writing retreat leader, and co-founder of the Straw Dog Writers Guild. All profits from her novel go to organizations supporting domestic violence victims and civil rights. Because it's never too late to bloom like you mean it.

The unnamed model is part of Dacia's plan to launch four new EVs by 2030, with design direction hinted at by the Dacia Hipster concept unveiled in October 2024.IVECO PUTS WIRELESS ROAD CHARGING INTO TRAFFICIveco has launched a real-world dynamic wireless power transfer (DWPT) trial on the A35 Brebemi motorway in northern Italy, using a production eDaily van fitted with inductive charging hardware that can charge both while stationary and while driving over embedded road sections. The project moves DWPT beyond lab testing into live traffic conditions, though it remains a technology demonstration rather than a commercial rollout due to the large infrastructure investment required for wide deployment.BYD, CHERY AND GEELY EYE CANADABYD, Chery, and Geely are preparing to enter the Canadian market by end of 2026 following a January trade reset between Canada and China, under which Canada agreed to allow 49,000 China-made EVs at the most-favoured nation tariff rate in exchange for lower Chinese tariffs on Canadian agricultural goods. Up to 15 additional Chinese brands could follow, though homologation remains the key bottleneck, with Tesla, Volvo, and Polestar best positioned to move quickly under the quota as they already have certified vehicles and established retail networks in Canada.

With Shannan Perciballi A Rosie On The House ReplayThis episode explores Arizona's local food community through a conversation with Shannon Perciballi, publisher and editor of Edible Phoenix. Shannon shares the story behind the magazine's evolution, her transition from a 35-year restaurant career into publishing, and why “slow media” matters. The discussion highlights mesquite as an underrated desert food, the importance of supporting local restaurants and farmers, and how storytelling strengthens resilient regional food systems.Shannan Perciballi is the publisher and editor of Edible Phoenix, a quarterly magazine celebrating Arizona's local food culture. A longtime Phoenix resident, she brings decades of experience in restaurants, wine, and hospitality to her work. Perciballi holds an English degree from Arizona State University and advanced wine certifications, and is deeply involved in supporting farmers, artisans, and regional food systems through storytelling, community partnerships, and advocacy for resilient local economies.Episode HighlightsShannon's leap from restaurant executive to magazine publisher“We are never going to scoop a story—we are the slow story.”Mesquite flour and its sweet, caramel-like flavor in sourdough breadThe power of seed swaps to spark food-growing conversationsHow summer restaurant slowdowns ripple through the local farm economyThe tactile experience of holding a seasonal, intentionally crafted magazineKey TopicsEdible PhoenixShannon PercevalPamela HamiltonSlow media and quarterly publishingArizona local food cultureMesquite as a desert superfoodLocal First ArizonaUptown Farmers MarketNorth Phoenix Baptist ChurchDesert Botanical GardenSeed swaps and community eventsSupporting independent restaurants and farmersCulinary education through Careers through Culinary Arts ProgramWhat is Edible Phoenix and why does it exist?Edible Phoenix is a quarterly magazine celebrating Arizona's local food culture. It tells the “slow stories” of farmers, ranchers, bakers, gardeners, and artisans whose work often goes unnoticed in mainstream media. Its mission is to strengthen community through storytelling and support resilient local economies.How did Shannon Perceval become the publisher?After a 35-year career in Arizona's restaurant and hospitality industry, Shannon purchased the magazine in 2023 when founder Pamela Hamilton retired. A longtime subscriber, she stepped into ownership to preserve and grow a publication she deeply valued.What makes “slow media” different?Unlike fast-breaking news, Edible Phoenix publishes quarterly and focuses on depth over speed. It explores how food is grown, prepared, and shared—embracing seasonality and intentional storytelling rather than headlines.Why is mesquite important to Arizona's food system?Mesquite trees produce sweet, protein-rich pods that can be milled into flour. Despite being abundant in the desert, they're often overlooked. Featuring local foragers and educators helps reintroduce this native, climate-adapted food into the regional diet.Why is supporting local restaurants and farmers critical?Local restaurants often source from local farms, creating a circular food economy. When independent restaurants struggle—especially during summer slowdowns—farmers and ranchers feel the impact. Spending locally keeps money circulating in the community and sustains family-owned businesses.How can consumers discover truly local food businesses?Visit farmers markets and ask vendors where their products are served. Farmers often supply independent restaurants directly. Markets like Uptown Farmers Market are hubs for discovering both producers and chefs committed to local sourcing.What role do community events play?Events like seed swaps, cookbook exchanges, and food festivals foster relationships and food literacy. Celebrations such as Devoured at Desert Botanical Garden and Local First Arizona's Fall Festival connect eaters directly with growers, chefs, and artisans.ResourcesEdible Phoenix — https://ediblephoenix.ediblecommunities.comSubscribe to the magazine — https://ediblephoenix.ediblecommunities.com/subscribeUptown Farmers Market — https://uptownmarketaz.comLocal First Arizona — https://localfirstaz.comVisit www.UrbanFarm.org/971 for the show notes and links on this episode!Need a little bit of advice or just a feedback on your design for your yard or garden?The Urban Farm Team is offering consults over the phone or zoom.

This week on The Whiskey Trip Podcast, Big Chief takes listeners for a ride to San Antonio to sit down with Tim Crofton, the distiller behind Ranger Creek and a fellow Army Veteran. This episode goes beyond the glass. It is about service, transition, discipline, and building something meaningful after the uniform comes off. Founded in 2010, Ranger Creek was one of the first brewery and distillery combinations operating under one roof in Texas. They were putting barrels away before Texas whiskey had national momentum and before American single malt became a headline. They built this brand in South Texas heat that does not forgive shortcuts. Barrels expand, contract, and mature aggressively. You either stay disciplined or you lose control of the process. Ranger Creek chose discipline. Tim and Big Chief talk about how military service shapes leadership inside a distillery and how that mindset carries into daily operations. As fellow veterans, they also discuss the Department of Defense SkillBridge program and Ranger Creek's role in helping transitioning service members find purpose in the craft industry. Giving veterans a pathway from service to skilled trade is not just smart. It is leadership in action. The first pour of the episode was State and Republic Wheated Bourbon. Wheat brings a rounded sweetness and approachability, but Texas oak still drives structure and backbone. It represents the steady foundation of Ranger Creek's bourbon program and the control required to age whiskey in a climate that accelerates everything. Next came the Distiller's Vault Rye Whiskey. This pour shifted the tone. Rye carries natural spice and intensity, and Texas maturation amplifies it. Black pepper, baking spice, oak, and heat layered together with authority. The Vault series allows Tim to showcase barrels with bold character while still maintaining balance. This rye had grit. It demanded attention. In the second half, the conversation moved into American single malt, a category Ranger Creek has been serious about long before it gained mainstream attention. Texas Landmark The Original No. 2 American Single Malt delivered roasted malt, dark chocolate notes, and structure built for Texas aging. It is confident, direct, and distinctly Texan. Then came the 307 Tricentennial Series Single Malt. Aged in apple brandy barrels and then finished for 4.5 days in an Amburana barrel, it became something layered and memorable. The apple brandy influence brought fruit and sweetness, while the Amburana added cinnamon, baking spice, and warmth. Apple strudel in a glass. That 4.5 day finish required precision. Too long and it dominates. Just right and it transforms the whiskey. We closed with the Texas Landmark Cask Strength Mesquite Smoked Single Malt. This was the exclamation point of the episode. Mesquite smoke is bold and unmistakably Texas, but here it was controlled and intentional. The smoke wrapped around the malt instead of overpowering it. At cask strength, it delivered depth, intensity, and a finish that stayed with you. It might be the best single malt I have ever had. This episode is about Ranger Creek's history, evolution, and the work behind every barrel. It is about service, transition, heat, discipline, and building legacy in Texas. Good whiskey. Hard work. Real leadership. Take the ride.

Shelby Houston In Memory of Richard Houston On December 3rd, 2021, Richard Houston, a 21-year Mesquite PD veteran, answered a domestic disturbance call and tragic events unfolded and he did not make it home that night. Being a family member or a friend of a first responder can be very rewarding as you have a front row seat of a true servant, a role model, and a hero. However tragedy can watch from afar and show up and cause a loved to receive a life changing phone call that will shape everyone's future. Richard was a dedicated husband, incredible father to his children and a dedicated peace officer that left this world too soon.  Before he responded to that call and left this world he sent his daughter, Shelby, a sweet and reassuring text that he and her mom will aways have her back. At her father's funeral she gave a breathtaking eulogy that inspired so many as it truly showed the beautiful side of humanity as Shelby spoke of forgiveness. This is her story of resiliency, faith and the incredible journey she is now a part of. The ATO is honored to sit down with this amazing young woman as she tells her story of her new “Why” in life and how she honors her father. Here to help tell this story we also are honored to welcome on the Honorable Judge Rainey Webb and her husband, former Dallas SWAT member Chris Webb. “If you are serious about your dream, surround yourself with people who love you well” -Bob Goff  Mesquite Police Officer Richard Houston Badge #821 End of Watch December 3rd,2021 www.shelbyhouston.org WWW.BOBGOFF.COM

Happy New Year from The Bourbon Road! Jim and Todd ring in the New Year at the Bourbon Road bar with one final sample show to close out 2025. With the "Whiskey of the Year" episode just around the corner, the hosts are clearing the decks and diving into four distinct and intriguing pours that range from experimental finishes to classic Kentucky profiles. It's a diverse lineup that takes their palates on a journey from the coast of France to the American Southwest. The tasting begins with a luxurious offering from Bardstown Bourbon Company's Distillery Collection: the Normandy Calvados Brandy Barrel Finish. This blend of 12 and 13-year-old Indiana bourbons was finished for 28 months in apple brandy casks and an additional four months in toasted oak. Clocking in at 104.2 proof, it delivers a "flavor explosion" of honey crisp apple, vanilla cream, puff pastry, and a rich, compote-like texture that leaves the hosts searching for descriptors like "candle nose" and "apple pie." Next, they take a sharp turn to Oxnard, California, for Sespe Creek Distillery's Warbringer, a Mesquite Smoked Southwest Bourbon. This 98-proof experimental pour features mesquite-smoked corn and malted rye, resulting in a savory, polarizing profile. Todd and Jim pick up notes of "burnt all-beef hot dogs," barbecue smoke, and pumpernickel, describing it as a "smoky beast" that definitely ruffles some feathers but delivers on its promise of uniqueness. Returning to the Bluegrass State, the hosts sample the inaugural release from Jackson Purchase Distillery: the Full Proof. Produced in Hickman, Kentucky, by Master Distiller Craig Beam and Assistant Master Distiller Terry Ballard, this 4-year-old bourbon (roughly 117.8 proof) punches above its age class. It offers a definitive, classic bourbon profile with notes of buttery caramel, brown sugar, and a viscous, oily mouthfeel that Jim calls the "Wikipedia picture of bourbon." Finally, they explore the New Riff High Note Confluence Project Volume 1, a 100% Wheat Whiskey. This 6-year-old expression uses a complex mash bill of Red Turkey Wheat and various malted wheats. At cask strength, it surprises the table with a dark, complex profile featuring notes of cotton candy, mint tea, medicinal cherry, and a "Good & Plenty" black licorice finish that showcases the depth of heirloom grains. The episode wraps up with a "Winner Winner Chicken Dinner" segment where Jim and Todd attempt to rank these four very different whiskeys. Will they lock stock on their favorites, or will the polarizing pours divide the room? Tune in to find out and get ready for the 2025 Whiskey of the Year show coming next week! Be sure to check out our private Facebook group, "The Bourbon Roadies" for a great group of bourbon loving people. You will be welcomed with open arms!

Nearly a decade ago, a pension crisis in the police and fire retirement system put Dallas in a precarious financial position, making the city a national cautionary tale. The city's worst years in the past decade were 2016 and 2017, when Dallas had a $528 million deficit amid an exodus of police officers stemming from the pension crisis. Thirty-two year old Matthan Lough of Crandall was arrested last week after Mesquite police obtained a warrant on child grooming charges after investigators received a report in October about possible child grooming at the Christian Center of Mesquite. Lough worked as a teacher and coach at Pioneer Technology and Arts Academy, a charter school, in Mesquite; an office tower in Dallas' Arts District has traded to a new owner. An affiliate of TRT Holdings, a Dallas-based investment firm that owns the luxury Omni Hotels & Resorts chain, purchased St. Paul Place from Pacific Elm Properties. Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 505 - Golf in Mesquite - Featuring Wolf Creek, Conastoga, and Eureka Join Michigan Golf Live TV host Bill Hobson on a spectacular golf road trip to Mesquite, Nevada—one of America's most underrated destination golf regions. Just an hour north of Las Vegas, Mesquite delivers a rare combination of beauty, challenge, and exceptional value that keeps golfers returning from around the world. In this special feature, Bill takes you inside three pillars of the Mesquite golf experience: Conestoga Golf Club, Wolf Creek Golf Club, and the Eureka Resort & Casino. Each stop showcases a different dimension of what makes Mesquite a bucket-list trip for golfers of all skill levels. We begin at Conestoga, a course celebrated for its Old West character, dramatic rock formations, amphitheater-style homesites, and an exceptionally thoughtful course design. Gary Banks crafted a routing that blends the landscape, community, and golf experience seamlessly—providing both challenge and playability. With multiple tees stretching to nearly 7,500 yards, Conestoga offers forgiveness for beginners, strategic options for mid-handicappers, and pure exhilaration for skilled players. Stunning visuals, target-golf elements, and memorable holes highlight the front nine and set the tone for Mesquite's unique desert style. Next, we visit the world-famous Wolf Creek, a course so dramatic that many golfers assume the photos are fake. They're not. Wolf Creek's unfiltered landscapes, extreme elevation changes, deep canyons, and risk-reward tee shots create an unforgettable experience. From 150 yards and in, precision is key—this is target golf at its most beautiful and demanding. For many international golfers, Wolf Creek is a pilgrimage, thanks in part to appearing in videogames and global golf rankings. Every guest leaves with stories they can't wait to share. After long desert rounds, nothing beats coming back to a friendly, perfectly-sized home base. The Eureka Resort & Casino, an employee-owned property, prides itself on hospitality, continual improvement, and making a Mesquite golf trip accessible and affordable. Vacation packages combining rooms and rounds deliver some of the region's best deals. The intimacy of the resort offers a peaceful retreat after adrenaline-filled rounds at Wolf Creek, Conestoga, CasaBlanca, and the many nearby courses stretching toward St. George. World-class challenge. Remarkable value. And unforgettable hospitality.  BOOK YOUR MESQUITE GOLF ESCAPE #MesquiteGolf #WolfCreekGolf #ConestogaGolf #NevadaGolf #GolfTrip #GolfTravel #DesertGolf #MichiganGolfLive #GolfDestinations

Here's Friday's show LIVE from the PLUCKERS in MESQUITE, where we celebrated the 55th birthday of Big Ben Rogers.  In this episode, loads of fun audio kicking Ben Rogers squarely in the junk, and also Mavs trade scenarios for Anthony Davis, and why the outlook for the Dallas Cowboys is looking pretty good on Monday night. 

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Brian Murray from Mesquite, NV. Your commitment through Project23 helps deliver God's Word daily with clarity and conviction. This one's for you. Our text today is Judges 12:8-13 After him Ibzan of Bethlehem judged Israel. He had thirty sons, and thirty daughters he gave in marriage outside his clan, and thirty daughters he brought in from outside for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years. Then Ibzan died and was buried at Bethlehem. After him Elon the Zebulunite judged Israel, and he judged Israel ten years. Then Elon the Zebulunite died and was buried at Aijalon in the land of Zebulun. — Judges 12:8-13 After Jephthah's short and turbulent reign, two quieter judges followed: Ibzan and Elon. Their stories don't include major battles or dramatic miracles. Instead, their legacies were marked by stability, family growth, and years of peaceful leadership. Sometimes the greatest gift God gives His people is not a warrior or a spectacle—but a steady, faithful presence. In a world addicted to drama, it's easy to overlook the beauty of quiet faithfulness. We chase excitement, headlines, and "big moments," but God often works most powerfully through ordinary obedience lived out day after day. Ibzan and Elon may not be household names, but for seventeen years, Israel enjoyed stability under their leadership. Families flourished, communities grew, and peace prevailed. That's not flashy—but it's priceless. Your life doesn't need to be loud to be significant. Faithfulness at home, consistency at work, serving in your church, investing in your children, showing up for friends—these are the building blocks of a godly legacy. Don't despise quiet seasons. Embrace them. Drama fades, but faithfulness endures. God honors steady obedience more than fleeting excitement. ASK THIS: Do I overlook the value of quiet, steady faithfulness in my own life? Am I chasing excitement instead of embracing ordinary obedience? How can my consistency build peace and stability for those around me? DO THIS: Commit to one act of steady faithfulness today—pray with your kids, encourage a friend, serve in your church, or follow through on a promise. Ordinary obedience makes an extraordinary impact over time. PRAY THIS: Father, thank You for the gift of steady faithfulness. Teach me not to chase drama but to embrace obedience. Let my consistency be a blessing to my family, my church, and my community. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Great Is Thy Faithfulness."

Mark Kellner and I discuss his October 24, 2025, article in The Epoch Times where he states that more "Americans now say religion is gaining influence in national life than at any point in the past 15 years," which comes from a Pew Research Center report on October 20, 2025. Mark and I have been friends for 30 years and have discussed many topics related to faith and the Churches of God.  He is a well-known author and a great person to talk to.  This is our third podcast.   Career highlights Kellner began writing about issues of faith and freedom in 1983.   From March 11, 1991, to January 18, 2014, he wrote some 1,200 weekly—and for about 18 months, semi-weekly—technology columns for The Washington Times.   He authored a religion-news column for The Washington Times titled “Higher Ground,” which debuted January 25, 2013.   From February 2014 to September 2015, he served as national reporter for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City.   From 2021-2024, Kellner was a national “Faith & Family” reporter for The Washington Times.   He is now based in Mesquite, Nevada.  Areas of focus & contributions Kellner has covered technology topics (especially earlier in his career) and later moved strongly into religion, faith institutions, family issues, religious liberty, and cultural trends.   He has also contributed to other outlets such as Religion News Service, Christianity Today, and various magazines/newspapers.  1 Kellner is a philatelist (stamp collector) and is a member of philatelic societies including the Royal Philatelic Society London, the Collectors Club of New York, and a life member of the American Philatelic Society.   Notable publications He is the author of God on the Internet.   He also wrote a book in the “For Dummies®” series (about WordPerfect or other software) during his technology-writing era.  Significance in journalism Kellner's career reflects a breadth of reporting: from technology journalism to deep engagement with faith and family issues in the public square. His long tenure at The Washington Times (both in tech and faith reporting) gives him significant institutional memory in those realms. Because of his religion and family-focus work, his writing often intersects with cultural, social and values-based dimensions of journalism. Current status As of his website update (2024–25), Kellner remains a freelance journalist available for assignments and has experience covering swing-state elections (for the New York Post in Nevada).  He continues to maintain his portfolio of stories on faith, family, culture and technology.

Mary welcomes back Pastor Andy Woods to talk about the ongoing and often unpredictable hostilities in the Middle East. There seems to be no end to the back and forth politicization of every possible way to sway the west toward the current pro-Hamas agenda. From lies about starving children to the growing call for a Palestinian state, Israel is front and center of all the (big) news that is fit to print. We also discuss an insidious bill in the California Assembly designed to empower the state to control children; we look at those who have weighed in on that. Another topic is the Mesquite, TX mosque and its proselytizing of children who attend taxpayer funded schools. We don't necessarily need to explore who is behind it, but rather ask ourselves how is this being allowed to take place at all? Finally, we talk about EU censorship that has gone so far down the rabbit hole there is no going back. Andy Woods is Pastor of Sugarland Bible Church and is one of the very best systematic Bible teachers in the land. His YouTube channel is loaded with great content.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A
