After almost two years of this podcast, I reflected the last few months about the more important work which must step in here in the very soon future.  Our nation, our mainstream news sites, our conservative news sites, our government, our culture, our society, our education system, our judicial system, all, seem so chaotic and controversial.  This amassed craziness and noise will occupy every square thought in your brain, if you let it.  And that’s exactly what all the above are trying to do – they want you stressed out, they want you overwhelmed, they want you confused and disoriented, so they can push onto you more control, and move so quickly behind the scenes, that thousands of new laws or regulations get passed while you’re reading simply today’s headlines.  How this will affect you and your family, or your business, or your taxes, you will have no idea, because you were never informed about them, but you’re liable to them, and tomorrow it will be even more.  So, in the chaos of what has been the last few years, how can you still live a life of honor, prudence, integrity, and peace?  First, it would be to step back from seeking the world for your inputs (news, education, government, etc.).  Second, it would be to be focused and tune in to that which really matters.  If there’s something I have learned in my short time on this earth, it’s that life is short, and our relationship with God, first, and our relationship with other people, second, is what really matters.  And that is the next adventure which awaits.  In this next season, I will launch a sermon series podcast, stepping exegetically through The Holy Bible, to show the world the way for life, for integrity, and for peace.  We all are given but one life, for an unknown number of days, so, how will we live it?
