Jon Noyes believed Christians were mentally bankrupt and their thinking? “Foolish fairytales” from a “cosmic skydaddy.” He would enjoy taking out the Christians he knew, in order to tear up their faulty theology. He says many did not have a defense of their faith. But one fateful night, truth came crashing through the door–literally, as he met the love of his life. “How could someone so smart believe these foolish things?” he boldly asked her. God started to work in Jon's life. He was passionately searching for truth, and found several bumps with reality he couldn't reconcile. He even attended Biola's seminary as a seeker, ultimately finding the truth he had been denying within the pages of the Bible. Now Jon helps Christians defend their faith with Stand to Reason and teaches at Beacon Hill Classical Academy.In 2013 Jon earned a master's degree in Christian Apologetics from Biola University, graduating with honors.

This week Tom Campbell looks back on 2020 in North Carolina.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – The North Carolina Supreme Court just gave the green light to the State Utilities Commission to resolve who will pay for the coal ash cleanup by Duke Energy. The Publc Staff had recommended that half the cleanup costs be paid by ratepayers and the other half by shareholders. What do you think of this proposal and is this what we can expect to happen?

Question to Rob Schofield and Dennis Wicker – The State Community Colleges announced that beginning in January the new President of the System will be Thomas Stith, who was Governor Pat McCrory’s chief of staff and has been North Carolina district director for the Small Business Administration. What do you think of his selection?

This week Tom Campbell discusses the giant surplus of cash in the state's coffers, and wonders why the Legislature isn't doing more to help struggling North Carolinians.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals recently sided with our legislature in ruling that lawmakers didn’t act with racist intentions when they passed a 2018 Voter ID law. We had passed a constitutional amendment that an ID would be needed to vote and a previous version of the law was struck down as an attempt at voter suppression. What’s your reaction of the 4th Circuit’s ruling and when do you think we might actually see identification required before voting?

Question to Rufus Edmisten and Peg O’Connell – There are many who believe that last year’s experiment with virtual learning resulted in most of our public school students essentially losing one-third of the year of learning. To find out for sure whether this assumption is truth our educators want to give standardized end of grade tests. Should they be in-person or virtual? Our State Board of Education is asking for federal waivers to not hold schools accountable if large numbers of students opt out of the exams. What do you think of that? How important are these tests?

Question to Leo Daughtry and Donna Martinez – Highway 12 is a ribbon of a road along North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Last week a winter storm once again covered sections of the road with sand. Sand and road washouts are a common occurrence. North Carolina has spent untold millions of dollars trying to keep this road on our barrier island open. Some are saying we should give up the fight and find other transportation alternatives or perhaps build an elevated highway like the one in the Florida keys. What do you think we should do about Highway 12?

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – Part of the repeal to the discriminatory HB2 legislation was a law that prohibited local communities from passing their own nondiscrimination ordinances to protect LGBTQ residents. That law has now expired and advocates are urging local governments to pass anti-discrimination laws. What do you think of this? Should HB142 be reinstated? Do we need each community to pass anti-discrimination laws or should this be a state responsibility?

This week Tom Campbell discusses the recent tightening of restrictions in response to the rapid increase in Covid-19 cases and deaths in North Carolina.

This week Tom Campbell discusses reasons why Democrats in North Carolina didn't see the gains they were hoping for in the 2020 election.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – Damaging storms and severe weather created major damage in our state and insurance claims surged. Insurance companies are requesting a 24.5 percent average increase in homeowners’ insurance as a result. In the middle of a pandemic, with so many out of work Insurance Commmissioner Mike Causey is faced with negotiating a settlement at a lower rate. What should he do? Is there an acceptable increase? What happens if homeowners have their insurance canceled.

This week Tom Campbell discusses what we can expect to see in this last month of 2020. He also discusses a way to make a difference for the better.

Question to Becki Gray and Howard Lee – The North Carolina Sheriffs Association released a report proposing statewide law enforcement reforms. One of the recommendations was that every North Carolina High School Junior should watch videos explaining how to interact with law enforcement. Some community activists oppose the idea because it could more easily violate someone’s rights. What do you think about the proposal? Should these videos be produced by law enforcement officials or should a bipartisan group be involved in the production?

This week Tom Campbell discusses his plans for Thanksgiving and how we can all get things back to normal sooner.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – A number of our state’s colleges are announcing big layoffs because of revenue shortfalls. Are these just temporary or do you think there will be a shrinking of college professors, support personnel and administrators? How will this affect higher education going forward?

Question to Bev Perdue and Rick Henderson – We are about to conclude one of the most divisive and bitter elections in history. Research indicates our millennial generation is losing confidence in our government and conspiracy theories have become an art form. How would you describe the state of the political climate in North Carolina? How about the state of government? What changes need making to make government work again?

This week Tom Campbell discusses bias in the media and what people can do about it.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – Infectious disease expert Dr. Toni Fauci warned the nation that even with vaccines it would likely be late next year or even into 2022 before we got back to some semblance of order. If true how will North Carolina cope? What changes do we need to make? Everyone is weary of this virus. Do you think we are willing to do the things it will take to protect ourselves and our neighbors?

Question to Brad Crone and Becki Gray – North Carolina citizens are alarmed when local businesses don’t take the requirement for face masks and social distancing seriously and many have filed complaints about particular businesses. Last week the Department of DHHS started making phone calls to those who have had complaints, warning them to get in line in observing the governor’s executive order. They were warned that it is a class two misdemeanor to fail to enforce these guidelines or else there will be further action. What do you think of this? Will it help to increase the use of face masks and social distancing? If not, should there be penalties or fines?

This week Tom Campbell discusses how the lockdown must have made people forget safe driving skills.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – We learned this week that the number of students enrolled in district schools has declined 4 percent or 71,000 students from last year. 8,500 enrolled in charter schools so the net decline is actually 62,000 students. What’s your reaction to this news? Is this a one-time event? What are the implictaions for state supported traditional district schools?

Question to Brad Crone and Becki Gray – During a conference call with county health officials last week DHHS Secretary Mandy Cohen encouraged leaders to consider levying fines against people who fail to wear face coverings in public. Face coverings are one of the most effective ways we now have to slow the spread of COVID-19. Some local officials opposed passing ordinances to levy fines or penalties. What do you think of the idea? How can we get people to wear masks? How far do personal rights go in helping protect others?

This week Tom Campbell discusses ways North Carolina can improve the way we do elections.

Question to John Hood and Chris – After nine consecutive weeks of decline North Carolina’s initial unemployment claims have risen for two consecutive weeks. The unemployment rate for our state increased from 6.5 percent in August to 7.3 percent in September. What does this tell you about our economy?

Question to Dennis Wicker and Anna Beavon Gravely - North Carolina had more than 14,000 new cases in one week, the highest numbers of death in a single day and the highest number of covid hospitalizations since the virus started. Rather than ease restrictions or even tighten then Governor Cooper announced we were remaining in Phase three. Did he do the right thing?

This week Tom Campbell discusses the financial impact small towns are feeling from lost revenue due to the Coronavirus.

Question to John Hood and Chris Fitzsimon – The Census ended Thursday after the Supreme Court sided with the Trump administration in halting it. North Carolina’s population is undercounted according to Carolina Demography Center at UNC. An undercount of 3 percent could cost our state $4.9 billion over 10 years. What’s your reaction to this news?

Question to Peg O’Connell and Patrick Sebastian – The State Department of Motor Vehicles is moving its headquarters to Rocky Mount in December. It is part of a movement to decentralize state offices across the state. About one-third of the current emmployees have chosen not to make the move. Whatdo you think of the idea of decentralizing state government from Raleigh?
