Here’s a guide from the Babylon Bee on how to take your wokeness to the next level by canceling friends, breaking windows, and burning it all to the ground. Those on the Left isn’t going to like this blog. They may want to cancel me for it or hunt me down.

Larry the Cable Guy said, “The Babylon Bee is the funniest site on social media and this book hits wokeness with a truthful comedy sledgehammer right between its pronouns.”

Ted Cruz said, “If you’re looking for a careful academic analysis of the philosophical underpinnings of the First Amendment, this book is not for you. But if you’re looking to laugh your ass off while The Bee slays the Left’s sacred cows, look no further!”

Andrew Klavan said, “When you consider our culture today, you either have to laugh uproariously or repeatedly smack yourself in the forehead with a hatchet.”

Dave Ramsey said, “Laughter is the best medicines in our current toxic world, and the Babylon Bee is always good for fun.”

As I was reading this book, I had to laugh myself and think how can those promoting Wokeness be so stupid? It’s too stupid to be taken seriously by normal decent people. Anybody with half a brain wouldn’t come up with this Wokeness that those on the Left had.

Being woke means waking up to the cause. What cause? Every far-left, radical, communist, Marxist cause we can think of. Wokeness isn’t a private religion you can keep to yourself.

Being woke means: realizing the problems in your life are not your fault. Blame everyone else for your problems. This is pretty much sums up social workers or unqualified counselors, who tells you to blame your parents for your troubles. Believe me, I have witnessed that first hands with social workers going through counseling myself.

Worshiping the planet because humanity is evil. Rejecting organized religion and mindlessly believing the Left. Finding racism, sexism, and hatred in everything.

Brainwashing our kids to hate life and be miserable. This is what they are teaching our kids in school today.

Rioting-sorry; peacefully protesting- in the name of justice. Even though, they are destroying public property in the process. You see it on college campuses and you see it in major cities.

Never; ever being satisfied and having happiness, but instead constantly complaining about everything.

It’s important to remember that your problems are not your fault. They are the fault of the oppressor class: your parents, teachers, people with a different skin color than you, Anyone who disagrees with your woke worldview.

Class is how much money you have, how cool of a car you drive, and whether or not you have one of those fancy fridges that dispenses ice and water right from the door. To the woke: poor person is good and rich person is bad.

Any religion is acceptable except Christianity.

Being woke is all about diversity. They love people of all nationalities and want the whole world to just be a big melting pot of all cultures, creeds and nations. Except of course, Americans. America is a disgusting place filled with white nationalist who could learn a thing or two from more advanced socialist countries like Venezuela or the Soviet Union. They even side with the Hamas over Israel and America.

Race is a social construct created by white people to excuse their oppression of black and brown bodies.

Many of us who go about our lives thinking we don’t hate people for their race are actually secret racist. You breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. You say you’re not racist. You judge people not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. You only like vanilla ice cream. You’ve mispronounced someone’s name before-especially a person of color. You believe 2+2 equals 4. In other words, they believe in the new math.

How to be a Feminist: Don’t get married. Get an abortion! Have lots of cats or dogs if you prefer. Speak in a very loud, high-pitched voice. Shave your head or dye your hair a neon color. Take up some casual witchcraft. Affirm that trans women are women.

They talk about pronouns.

America’s fake founding: let’s make a country that has liberties. America’s real founding: Let’s make a country that will be more hateful and oppressive.

They believed that Abraham Lincoln was a racist; even though he was responsible for freeing the slaves after the Civil War.

They are easily offended by everything.

They believe that Jesus was woke and want to make churches woke as well.

They follow the science and believe in the like of Dr. Nazi Fauci. They believe that the vaccine is a cure-all. They take what their doctors says seriously instead of seeking a second or third opinions.

They believe what causes climate change are: Capitalism, Whiteness, cow farts, you existing, racism, homophobia, low taxes, freedom, hamburgers, and the nuclear family.

They believe to combat climate change we must: kill someone, get an abortion, eat bugs, switch from plastic bags to paper bags, drive an electric car, pay more taxes.

They believe that our naive parents and grandparents were totally lame, and they tried to change the world by being nice to their neighbors, going to church, loving their families, and raising their kids right.

They vote to bring about utopia.

These are just some of the craziest ideas coming from those promoting Wokeness. You’ll have to read that book or check out The Bees online to learn more.

The world has gone completely crazy! No wonder I prefer a cabin in the woods and to live off the land.

I won’t tell you companies or celebrities who have gone woke because that is for a future blog.

I hope you see how stupid those on the Left had become with this Wokeness. Believe me, this is not a joke. It’s too stupid to be a joke. It’s a joke that no one is laughing at.

Stay tuned for next week! There’s more stupidity to come.

Not only do we celebrate mothers on this Mother’s Day; it’s also fishing opening season for Walley fishing. If you are anything like me, you may wonder why?

I loved my mother, but I also love to fish. So when the government puts both on the same weekend, you wondered what the government was thinking? Then again, anything the government does, doesn’t make a bit of sense.

Mother’s Day should be a special day to honor your mother and the sacrifice they made for you. They carried you 9 months inside their womb. They took care of you when you were a child. They didn’t count the cost. Mothers look after you even when you became an adult. Even mothers who are not with us anymore, still watches over us through their spirit.

Could it be that by putting both on the same weekend, fathers would give mothers a break by taking the kids fishing?

I mean, who doesn’t love to go fishing? You can catch and release or you can catch and eat; whatever you prefer. There’s nothing like a good fish fry; especially by the lake when the fish you caught is still fresh.

It’s hunting, fishing and loving everyday. If I could make a nickel off turning them bass, never worry about the price of gas, I’d be wheeling and dealing and sitting there reeling them in.

There’s nothing like being on the lake fishing. I would rather fish than golf any day. It’s very relaxing just fishing on the lake, being one with nature. It’s so peaceful; unless you have stupid people out there making waves with their speedboat. Those people doesn’t understand being one with nature. All they care about is destroying nature and everything around it.

I’ll never forget when my dad would take us fishing. It was the best time we had with him. It didn’t matter what kind of fish we caught either, Sunfish, Walley, Northern, etc.

I even remember the family going up to Canada on a fishing trip before we needed a passport or birth certificate. We even went fishing at the Lake of the Woods; and the only way to get there was going up to Canada first and then coming down on the tip of Minnesota. I even remembered one time, dad got mom in the boat with us as we were fishing up in Canada. That was the year, I caught an eel. Someone from afar shouted, “they’re good eating!” But my dad ended up cutting the line as the eel was close to the boat instead of bringing it in the boat. Good family memories I would forever cherished.

As Brad Paisley sang in “I’m gonna miss her, he was talking about going fishing instead of spending time with wife/girlfriend. In this blog, I will mention, how I miss my mother now that she has been gone for around 12 years.

As Trace Atkins sang, “You’re going to miss this.”

Treasure the moments you have with your mother while she’s alive. When she’s gone, you will surely miss her.

My parents weren’t the kind to go out on a date to be alone with each other. They were more like to spend it with the family, doing things together as a family, creating memories for us kids. Memories are so much better than actual pictures.

Even though, my mother is gone, I believe that her spirit is watching over me. At times, I feels her presences. I believe that what saved me when I was in a car accident was the fact of three reasons: seatbelt, the airbag, and my mother’s spirit; as her spirit put her arms in front of me before the crash.

I love to fish and I love my mother. I missed my mother very much.

Who haven’t heard of Paul Harvey? I grew up listening and watching him on the evening local news at 6pm. He would closed out the news with the rest of the story. If you ever noticed in some of my blogs, I would make references to him. I was fascinated with him and his stories. He was a true journalist, who actually done his research to give you the facts, just the facts. I want to be that kind of blogger, like Paul Harvey before there was actually blogs back in his days.

As Paul Harvey would say, now the rest of the story.

Paul Harvey was born September 4, 1918 in Tulsa, Ok. He passed away February 28, 2009 in Phoenix, AZ. He was an American radio broadcaster for ABC News Radio. He broadcast news and comment on mornings and mid-days on weekdays and at noon on Saturday and also his famous “The Rest of the Story” segments. From 1951 to 2008, his programs reached as many as 24 million people per week.

Paul Harvey was best known as one of the most widely followed radio and television news commentators. He showed an interest in radio during childhood and in high school was a champion orator.

Paul Harvey News was carried on 1,200 radio stations, and on 400 American Forces Network stations, and in 300 newspapers. You can even catch his rest of the story on YouTube.

He attended Tulsa Central High School, where he 2 years ahead of future actor Tony Randall. Paul Harvey’s teacher, Isabelle Ronan was impressed by his voice.

By June1944, he began broadcasting from the ABC affiliate WENR.

The US attorney for Illinois empanel a grand jury to consider an espionage indictment; in which he went on the air to suggest he was being set up.

He had gone public in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s. He debut on November 16, 1952, when he began a 15 minute newscast on ABC.

To this day, there is no one who can light a match to Paul Harvey’s true Journalist ability. He deserve a praise for being a pioneer in the field of Journalism. People like him and Walter Cronkite actually had integrity when it came to reporting the news. He gave you the facts and kept his Conservative views to himself. He had integrity and actually did his research before giving his reports to his listeners.

I strive to be more like Paul Harvey when it comes to writing my blog. I want to be able to give you the facts along with my opinions to help you make the right decision. If somehow some of the facts in my blog isn’t correct, I apologize for it. I pledge to make sure to do my research much like Paul Harvey did, and true journalists should do. I strive to give you: who, what, why, where, when, and how, as I learned in studying journalism in college.

Not many journalists today is willing to do that. Most of them are bias; and they are not supposed to be. They are more of glorified blogger rather than a journalist. I don’t care what news station you may listen or watch.

I may watched Fox news, but I also watch my local ABC news stations. I want to get the full story, the rest of the story. That way, I can make the right decision. As a good reporter or lawyer, we must get all the facts, not just what certain news stations want to give us. That is the job of a good journalist and/or blogger must do.

I don’t think that Paul Harvey would be too proud of the news media right now. He would probably say that they have lost their ways and became too bias.

Even though, I may be a Conservative blogger like Paul Harvey was a Conservative, I try to give you the facts, just the facts; so you can make a rational decision.

They don’t make them like Paul Harvey anymore. No one can light a match to him. I hope that I can at least comes close though. Let me know how I’m doing at the bottom by pressing like and maybe even make a comment. I want to hear from you.

This is a broad subject and I will only touch based on some aspects of human trafficking. If you followed this whole month of my blogs, you will find a theme in these last 4 blogs.

HUMAN TRAFFICKING: is the recruitment, transportation, transfer, harbouring or receipt of people through force, fraud or deception, with the aim of exploiting them for profit. Men, women and children of all ages and all backgrounds can become victims of this crime.

SLAVERY: a condition compared to that of a slave in respect of exhausting labor or restricted freedom. It’s a condition in which one human being was owned by another.

Do you see the connection already?

Shortly after West Acres opened, there was an alert out there warning people of young girls and possible boys being followed to the restrooms at the mall and drugged. They were soon taken down to Minneapolis by human trafficker, getting them into prostitution. People just thinks girls when it comes to prostitution, but teenage boys also get sucked into yet as well; to suit a person preference, whatever it may be.

In the country of Amsterdam, there is a red light district. In the red light district, the do’s and don’ts are as follow. be respectful to the sex workers and do not take pictures of the sex workers.

The internet can be a tool for human trafficker and for those looking for a mate. Who ever had contact with someone from another country from someone looking for a way out of their country by marrying someone from the United States? Years ago, I had received e-mails from women from Russia trying to hook up with me to get out of Russia. They wanted men to pay for them to come to the United States, and they will become their wife. Not just Russia, but the Philippines as well.

We all know that the oil boom brought prosperity to North Dakota. But do know that it also brought human trafficker to the Western part of the state as well?

If you are thinking, “we do not have trafficking in North Dakota…you are not alone. Common misconceptions lead people to believe human trafficking is something that happens in another state, larger cities or across the globe. However, human trafficking affects every community in the United States across age, gender, ethnicity, and socio-economic backgrounds.

Individuals are advertised for sex online and trafficked out of local and rural hotels and homes. They are forced to work long hours on a rural farm. This may include the withholding of personal identification documents if they are from another country. They may also be withheld food, water, money and medical treatment. Labor traffickers may make threats against the worker’s lives or the lives of their love ones. Survival sex is the exchange of goods, like food or shelter for sexual act. Parents/Guardian trading their child for sex to obtain drugs and alcohol. This happens behind closed doors.

Very much like slavery was before the Civil War!

We all know about Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking and his island he done his business from. We know about who was on the guest list to Epstein’s Island. I won’t go into the list of famous people involved with Jeffery Epstein’s sex trafficking because that’s another blog. Besides you already know some who are on the list anyway.

The latest celebrity to be under investigation for human sex trafficking is Sean P. Diddy Comb.

Now let’s go south to the Border. Not only does the open border brings illegal immigrants into the United States, it also brings drugs and guns illegally. The cartels is also human trafficking these immigrants into the United States as well.

Human trafficking meets human smuggling at the Southern Border. This one of the reason President Trump stresses the need for a border wall to stop human trafficking.

Human trafficking is defined by the U.S. State Department as a crime involving the exploitation of an individual for the purposes of compelled labor or a commercial sex act through the use of force, fraud, or coercion.

The excuse that some of those in Washington used for not securing our Southern Borders is: the United States need people to do the job that no one here would do for less money. Some excuse, ha?

Some of the illegal immigrants coming across the borders were in prisons in their home countries. Their government are releasing them in hoping that they will come to the United States and become our problems. The cartels are helping them in getting across the borders as well.

So you can see that Joe Biden is on the Cartel’s payroll, so to speak. He is their employee of the year. It’s the President’s job to secure the border, and Joe Biden is failing at that. He is as guilty at human trafficking as Jeffery Epstein and P. Diddy Combs.

This is another reason why we must secure our borders. We have to do our part in stopping human trafficking from getting out of hand. We must stop the cartels once and for all. I’m glad that I didn’t get suckered in when some of these Russian women was pleading with me to help them to escape Russia and come to the United States. Believe me, it was a tempting offer. Luckily, I didn’t have the money to do that.

It’s time to secure our borders and stop the cartels from human trafficking. Even Bobby Kennedy Jr. says the same thing. If Joe Biden won’t do it, than he got to go in November.

I don’t know about you, but when I was in school years ago, we were taught about Haiti. I first learned about Haiti through the school lunch program at school. I was taught to be grateful and to eat what is on our plate, because there are people starving in Haiti and other countries.

These last few years, I have learned even more about Haiti through my church. Bridgepointe Community Nazarene Church has a good pastor who came from Haiti. Since he understands the plight of those in needs, he started a church pantry as an outreach in Fargo-Moorhead.

This is just one of the things Bridgepointe Community is doing as an outreach. I will mention the church’s connection with Haiti as well.

Haiti is a Caribbean country that shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic to its east. Though it’s still recovering from the 2010 earthquake, many of Haiti’s landmarks dating to the early 19th century remain intact.

The capital of Haiti is Port-au-Prince.

The official languages are Haitian Creole and French.

Haiti is east of Cuba and Jamaica; and south of The Bahamas.

We all know about Cuba and Fido Castro, a dictator of Cuba, who kept the people there poor and under his thumb.

We also know about The Bahamas as being a hangout for the rich and famous.

The island of Haiti was claimed by Spain after Christopher Columbus discovered it. After the 17th century, the island ceded to France in 1697. The French colonists established sugarcane plantations, worked by enslaved persons brought from Africa.

The Haitians scramble to survive, seeking food, water and safety as gang violence chokes the capital.

The United Nation says deaths rising sharply as gangs vie for power in Haiti; after overtaking the capital a couple months ago.

There is a do not travel to Haiti warning right now. The security situation is volatile. Violent crime is common, including murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, assault, sexual assault and carjacking.

Haiti is the poorest country in the Americas and one of the poorest in the world. The latest official poverty estimated suggested that over 6 million Haitians lived below the poverty line of US $2.41 per day and more than 2.5 million fell below the extreme poverty line of US $1.12 per day .

Gangs united to overthrow the remainder of the government, releasing more than 4,000 prisoners and causing violence in Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince. Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry has announced that he will resign once a transitional presidential council has been created. Many families have been forced to flee their homes, seeking safety with very few safe places to go.

A long-simmering crisis in Haiti has escalated over the last few weeks, resulting in unprecedented spikes in gang violence which have shut down the country’s airports, disrupted movement of people and goods, and displaced over 362,000 people inside the country, including 33,000 newly displaced.

The Leftist news media here in the United States and the those on the Left says that they shouldn’t have overthrown the capital. The reason for them saying that is because they are so in favor of the corrupt government. They don’t see anything wrong with the government. It goes to show that when you have Socialism government, it leaves the people poor and the government rich and powerful. Anyone who tries to stop them; they go after hard.

What’s going on in Haiti right now is a lesson for us in America to learn. This is why we need to stand against our corrupt government we have in Washington; especially those on the Left. This is why I will continue speaking out against those who wants to destroy America.

Now back to the other connection with Haiti and Bridgepointe Community. Through the Nazarene church and United Hearts for Haiti, we have started a church in our pastor’s home town, where he came from. We also started a technical trade school in that same town as well. People have gone there for a Work & Witness trip to help build the church and school.

Pray for the people of Haiti as they are going through this latest crisis. If you want and can give to help those in Haiti, you can do so through, United Hearts for Haiti. You can even send money in care of Bridgepointe Community Nazarene Church in Moorhead for United Hearts for Haiti. United Hearts for Haiti have had fundraiser at the church, most recently a chili feed.

I’m so glad for the connection I have with Haiti. It helps me understand more than what I was taught back when I was in school. This gives me a heart for mission and a heart for the people of Haiti as well. I stand behind them!

How about you, will you stand behind the people of Haiti in this crisis they are facing right now?

PRAY FOR THE PEOPLE OF Haiti!!

For those who are around my age and from North Dakota and near Fargo have experienced culture shock. When I was younger, Fargo was a much different city to live in. There was less crime and more normal people. There wasn’t that much difference races and culture, as there is today. It was much like the movie “Fargo;” which was filmed in Brainerd, MN. That movie was a satire of how the people of Fargo lives and talk. You could say that Hollywood was poking fun at Fargo with that movie.

That movie was fiction but culture shock is not.

What some may see as being racist, may only be culture shock. If you are not used to someone from a different culture, we could come across as being indifferent to other cultures or lifestyles. It’s because we don’t understand other cultures and/or people’s lifestyle choice.

Believe me, I’m not racist or indifferent about others life choices. North Dakota was considered to be in the stone age with a lot of things. North Dakota is one of the last state to move into the 21st century.

Just like the baby boomers and older generations, they are easily shell shocked in their way of thinking. Generation X, my generation is the generation that slowly sees changes in our way of thinking. Even though, I’m so close to being a baby boomer.

When my family moved from West Fargo to the farm in Rollag, south of Hawley, Minnesota, and we went to school in Hawley, it was a bit of a culture shock for us 2 youngest kids. The school and the town of Hawley was different to what we came from in West Fargo, or even Fargo. The kids were different too.

Even though I was culture shock, I have to admit, I see myself as a small town country boy now. To me, Hawley was and is my hometown. The farm is the ground, I grew up on. Hawley is where I got a better education than I did in West Fargo school system. I may had hated the moved back then; but I’m glad to have that experience of living in a small town such as Hawley.

There wasn’t hardly anyone with a different culture in Hawley; but one exchange student from the Philippines. He was taken in by a classmate’s family of mine. Could you imagine the culture shock that he went through? Probably more than what I went through. I graduated with him.

Like I said earlier, I grew up on a farm south of Hawley, in Rollag. It was like going back in time. The people there was really in the stone age and unacceptable of certain culture and lifestyle. I have a book that I’m in process of typing up in hope to get it published, called, “Rollag Hills.” Even though, that book is a novel, it depicts life in Rollag.

The older members of Rollag Lutheran church seems to control the pastor there. When the pastor was doing his job when he asked if the daughter of one of the family, if she was pregnant, and that was why she was getting married, he was immediately asked for resignation. It happened in the ’80’s; and it goes to show how behind time they were.

Another example was when a mixed-raced couple was living in Rollag. The older generation, my folks included thought it was horrible. They felt bad for any children they would have.

Or when a young woman was sexually assaulted and raped. The older generation blamed her because they felt that she was dress inappropriately.

These are just some of examples of people from a different generation being culture shock and making false accusations.

Just like a family who has a member who is a homosexual. Some are quick to condemn them for their lifestyle choices. They are quick to disown them as well. I have a cousin, who is gay, and believe me, there is members in my family who is condemning him for his lifestyle choice. They try to be accepting of him but deep down they want nothing to do with him. And now he is missing and no one knows if he is dead or alive. He’s my cousin and I love him despite of his decision.,

Some of these family wants to send anyone who is a homosexual to camp to de-program, camp set up by Michelle Bachmann. They think that they can pray the gay away.

I remembered one summer, when us two youngest ones went to Minneapolis for the weekend with an older sister. That was a culture shock for us as well. We saw people of different cultures and race. Even going to a bigger city than Fargo was enough of a shock to our system. The first night there we went drinking and stop at a White Castle afterward. When my brother-in-law and I was sitting in the back of his truck, he knocked on the window to get his wife, my sister to hurry up and leave out of fear. But it was probably more culture shock than anything.

Back in 2001, while driving past Chicago, I was a bit culture shock, and to this day I hated Chicago. While driving by it on the interstate, I reached over to make sure that the car doors were locked, out of fear.

I didn’t go through much culture shock when I went to NDSU; even though I met an exchange student from South Africa. Maybe because Fargo was still somewhat normal than it is today.

For some reason, I didn’t have much culture shock when I went to Indianapolis for a work & witness. Even though, I have encountered people from different culture and countries there.

There was a woman, I knew, and became friends with of a different race. Some thought she was a girlfriend. I even have a friend who is a Christian now; and he is from Iran. His name is Fred. He still got family in Iran and some are Muslims. They don’t have much to do with him because he’s a Christian.

So you see, I’m not racist. The church I’m a member of is a multi-national and multi-cultural church.

Sometimes, it’s not being a racist but rather it’s being culture shock instead. If a person isn’t used to another culture or someone with a different lifestyle than ours, we come across as being indifferent of them.

We are all brothers and sisters in the Lord. We must learn to accept one another and get pass any issues that differs from our own. We must learn to get along! We live in a nation of melting pot.

Not all of us talked like in the movie, “Fargo.” That movie is just a satire, being poked fun of by people of Hollywood.

Last summer, while at camp at Lake Geneva, at Alexandria, MN, there was a missionary from South Africa that brought back memory of the first time I encountered someone from South Africa. It was 1984, and I was going to NDSU. During the ’80’s Apartheid was going strong in South Africa. This person was an exchange student from South Africa and he was staying at University Lutheran Center; since they was sponsoring him, the Lutheran Church. He was the first person of a different race and culture I encountered once I graduated from high school.

Most young people today probably don’t know what Apartheid really is. I hope to help people get an understanding of what Apartheid is and how a similar thing is going on here in the United States.

The term “apartheid”, an Afrikaans word, derived from the French term “mettre a part”, literally translated to separating, setting apart. Apartheid is a policy that is founded on the idea of separating people based on racial or ethnic criteria. Racial segregation, especially a policy of racial segregation formerly practiced in the Republic of South Africa.

The best explanation of Apartheid is: The Apartheid (1948-1994) in South Africa was a racial segregation under the all-white government of South Africa which dictated that non-white South Africans (a majority of the population) was required to live in separate areas from whites and use separate public facilities, and contact between the 2 groups.

It was the year 1948 that Apartheid started. It was the election of the Nationalist Party in 1948 that marked the beginning of legalized racism’s harshest features called Apartheid.

The crime against humanity of apartheid means inhuman acts of a character similar to those referred to in paragraph 1 of Article 7, committed in the context of an institutionalized regime of systematic oppression and domination by one racial group over any other racial groups.

Apartheid was a system for keeping white people and nonwhites separated in South Africa.

Under the administration of the South African president F. W. de Klerk, legislation supporting apartheid was repealed in the early 1990’s and a new constitution-one that enfranchised blacks and other racial groups-was adopted in 1993.

In addition to Mandela and his fellow ANC prisoners release, the white government announces a package of reforms that include lifting the ban on the African National Congress and other Black groups. Mandela leads the negotiations with the government to end apartheid.

Nelson Mandela wound up spending 27 years in prison for leading the African National Congress, which opposed apartheid policies that kept South Africa’s black residents segregated, often in inhumane conditions.

Amid growing domestic and international pressure and fears of racial civil war, President F.W. de Klerk released Nelson Mandela in 1990. They led efforts to negotiate an end to apartheid, which resulted in the 1994 multiracial general election in which Mandela led the ANC to victory and became president.

Fast forward to today and similar thing is happening involving our Democracy; which is at stake. Under Joe Biden, he is weaponizing the FBI to keep Donald Trump off the election ballots. A similar thing is also happening to Bobby Kennedy Jr as well. Those on the Left are just so afraid of both Trump and Kennedy.

Donald Trump has a bunch of legal battles because of Joe Biden and the FBI under him. Yet, he is fairing very high in the polls with the American people; much like Nelson Mandela did in South Africa. The American people hated seeing what those on the Left is doing to our Democracy.

With Bobby Kennedy Jr. he first ran for President as a Democrat; but because of those on the Left, he was forced to runs as an Independent. Those on the Left is fighting to keep him off the ballot as well. They don’t even want to give him security. Anyone who runs for president is entitled to securities. He too is fairing better than Joe Biden in the polls.

Both Trump and Kennedy are fighting for the American people, democracy and our freedom to vote for whoever we may choose. That is the American way! This is so similar to the Apartheid in South Africa. It’s our god given rights as American citizens to vote for whoever we choose. They fought for this democracy in South Africa to end apartheid; now those on the Left is fighting to stay in power against anyone who may oppose them. It just happens to be Trump and Kennedy right now.

Without the impartial rule of law, there is no true democracy or moral governance. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. calls Joe Biden a threat to democracy. Joe Biden is a bigger threat to democracy than Donald Trump according to Bobby Kennedy Jr.

Kennedy wants a fair election by letting the American people make the decision on who should be president, not those on the Left and those in power. He stands by Trump as well as the American people; even though, he is running for president himself.

So you can see how this year election is similar to Apartheid in South Africa; except for the racial context. Those on the Left is separating anyone who may disagree with them and taking away our democracy and freedom. They want to remain in power and will stop at nothing to do so. We, the American people must stands our grounds against them. It’s our god given rights as American citizens; that our forefathers fought for, and our those in military also fought and died for. Don’t let them take away our rights as free American citizens. Don’t let them destroy our democracy. I will continue to stand up and fight. I will do this through my blogs as well. Will you join me in this fight for our democracy?

Happy Easter everyone!!

What kind of witness are you? How well do you do at witnessing to others? Are you lukewarm?

Many are afraid to witness because of when people sees the Jehovah’s Witness or the Mormons come strutting up to the house, apartment or even a car, they shut the blinds in hoping that they would go away.

Many Christians could give you a decent answer to why we need to evangelize the lost, but when you get around to specifics and plans, they begin to tremble, shake, and turn white.

If the church was a retail business, it would have floundered years ago, based on its bad marketing principles.

What part should Kingdom citizens(Believers) play in reaching the lost-an active or passive role? People needs the Lord, but so many of Christians don’t do a very good job at witnessing to others for many reasons.

What would you do if a lost person came knocking on your door? Would you turn them away?

The non-Christian population is busy with evading fears that they have either caused or that come from being victims. The Christians, unfortunately, often largely reflect the secular world when it comes to fear.

When we live lives with fear controlling our sharing of the Gospel, we are not living up to all that God has called us to.

Instead of dealing with fear, we sweep it under the carpet and call that good. It is time to have a wake-up call. Church, and honestly look at your life and see what actions and activities would be fear defining and faithless. What would the church be like internally and behind the scenes if it actually dealt with its issues or to quote modern psychology, its “demons”?

What a change we would find in our churches, regarding soul winning, if we had a different relationship to fear. Too often we have the white elephant of fear grossly distorting our walk, leading us to experience and pass on a counterfeit Christian experience.

Is the thought of witnessing scary to you?

I have a confession, I don’t know about you but I don’t do very well at witnessing to others. To be honest, I would rather be left alone than bother witnessing to others; as crazy as the world has become. I would prefer a cabin in the woods rather than deal with all the craziness going on in the world today., Believe me, the world is in desperate need of a Savior right now. What is the church doing about it? Are they as scared as I am?

When we witness, we are not to judge people’s lifestyle choices. Yet, there are people in churches who are hypocrite when it comes to witnessing to others. They are like the Pharisees and very judgmental of others. If you don’t look acceptable, you are not welcome into the church. If you don’t look or act the part, you are shunned away and condemn.

We all have a story to tell. Shouldn’t we be willing to share our story with the world? You can say that I am hiding behind my blog when it comes to witnessing to others. I haven’t done very well at witnessing because I don’t want to scare my readers away. Religious blogs don’t do very well for some reason. I’m aiming for what the readers want instead.

If your witness of Christ is hot, the King is accurately reflected and the Kingdom is blessed and grows. On the other hand, if you have a cold witness, your limp fish spiritual life will also become readily evident.

One of the hidden dangers of being lukewarm is that it dulls your senses. It slowly makes you think that life in partial obedience to God is actually another form of obedience.

What does a lukewarm heart do with the Bible, then? If the fire of the Spirit is not hot but just kept warm by a few dying embers of a past experience, this state will affect your approach to Scripture. If Christians continue being lukewarm, the Christian church will eventually die, when the elderly die. If the church doesn’t do their part in reaching the next generation, the devil will succeed. I’m afraid to say that the Christian churches are slowing dying.

When you think of a Christian as “on-fire” for God, what actions do you observe from their life?

We are in need of a revival once again. People needs the Lord now more than ever.

Where’s the beef? Much has been said recently about politics and how there is a dramatic difference from campaign promises to win election. This could be said and could be true of any political party, and can certainly apply to the Christian witness. It would seem a drastic problem when Christians at times do not resemble the name they bear. I have a hard time with people who judge others because they are different(sounds like I’m judging). Sometimes the devil is found in the heart of the long haired hippie type, while at other times it is the decadent heart of the clean cut church attending serial killer. On the other hand, in the church, spiritual fruit is not based merely on who can dress the best or quote the most Scripture or who listens to Christian radio. Yet there are people in the church who would judge a person if they drink alcohol or have been in a homosexual relationship.

The Great Commission states, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” This is our command as Christians to go out and witness.

As in Isaiah 6:8, my favorite Bible verse, “Whom shall I send, who will go for me? Here am I! Send Me!”

We mustn’t be all talk. The Lord will judge us by our actions as well. If we say one thing but do another, we are not truly witnessing. We are lukewarm and God will spit us out. There are people who doesn’t like drinking lukewarm water.

Now more than ever, the world needs to hear about Jesus. The Christian churches need to step up in their witnessing before it’s too late.

If you are moved by this blog to be a better witness press like and find yourself a good Bible preaching church. If you feel you are ready to come and accept the Lord, I hope that there will be someone who is a Christian available to lead you to accept the Lord. If not find yourself a good Bible preaching church. My prayer is that someone will come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior from this blog. I also pray for a revival now more than ever.

What kinds of a leader are you?

Tough times can be your opportunity to make your leadership. One of the most challenging tasks leaders face is being a change agent and leading people through tough times. But it can be one of the most rewarding. Good leaders never delegate problem-solving to someone else. They are active in facing challenges, breaking through obstacles, putting out fires, correcting mistakes, and directing people. Tough times don’t break good leaders. They make them!

As human beings, we seem to believe that life is supposed to be easy. This is particularly a problem in America today. We expect a smooth and easy road to success. We expect our lives to be hassle-free. We expect the government to solve our problems. We expect to get the prize without having to pay the price. That is not reality! Life is hard!

Nothing worth having in life comes without effort. No one escapes life’s problems, failures, and challenges.

Good leaders understand that adversity and challenges are actually opportunities to rise up in leadership.

Leaders can do that only when they have the right mind-set.

Some leaders treat adversity as a stepping-stone, others as a tombstone. Which are you?

Good leaders see and seize opportunities. They are continually on the lookout for ways to help their organizations and advance their teams.

Great leaders are out front. Great leaders don’t merely send others out in times of trouble. They lead the charge. To me, the best leaders are those who are hands-on. They are not afraid to get their hands dirty if they have to. They will work right alongside you. Whereas leaders who sit on their lazy ass and bark orders are the worse managers. They have to have people skills.

I have worked under bad management and I have worked under good management. At one of my job, I had a good manager, who worked right along with us workers. His name was Eric Ronson from the Fargo Country Club. Because he was a good manager, it was easy to respect him, making it hard to leave for a better paying job.

The manager at the Fargo Dome also is not afraid to get his hands dirty as well. I have seen him out there working with the workers getting ready for a concert or an event.

Then I have managers who would sit on his ass in his office barking orders at the staff. Sometimes, they even have a list as long as my arm.

As a leader, you need to come alongside them to help them figure it out. No team can win and keep winning unless everyone works together. It’s the responsibility of leaders to promote teamwork. I have seen that at Concordia, when the managers would come downstairs during lunch hour to help out during the rush.

Leaders cannot delegate the solving of problems to someone else. They have to be active in facing challenges.

People pursue leadership for many reasons. Some want power. Others seek riches. Many are driven by an ideology or a desire to change the world.

Leaders who do not put people first will ultimately disqualify themselves as leaders, because their people will lose trust and respect for them.

If the leader is undisciplined, does sloppy work, wastes time, or treats people poorly, the people will follow suit. The employees will have a bad attitude because of poor management. Yet, some managers cannot see that they are the reasons for the bad attitude.

Insecure leaders have a hard time investing in other people because they fear that someone will take their place. Leaders who are honest with themselves know that they don’t have all the answers.

Insecure leaders rely on controlling the people.

Effective leaders make things happen and get results.

A strong leader earns respect; whereas a weak leader become the butt of all jokes. Trump may have a big ego and came across as a bully; but other countries feared him; which kept us out of wars when he was President. Whereas, with Joe Biden, the other countries are laughing at him and the United States. They sees him as being weak, old and feeble-minded. Other countries don’t respect him, because they don’t fear him. They sees Joe Biden as a bad joke for America; and someone who people can walk all over. It’s like elderly abuse when it comes to Biden. Then when he says, “You’re all going to pay,” or “I’ll take you out back,” no one can take him seriously.

What is the best way to lead a large group of people through a tough change? Appoint other leaders to share the load. No leaders on your team? Then grow them. Investing in leaders offers a greater return than leading followers all by yourself. The better leaders an organization has, the greater its potential.

As a leader, you may be tempted to build relationships only with the people you like or with whom you are highly compatible, and ignore the others. Good leaders deal successfully with these differences and leverage them for the benefits of the team and organization.

Nothing lifts a person like being respected and valued by others. In other words, to get respect as a leader, you have to respect those working under you. You can do that by working alongside your employees rather than sit in your office on your lazy ass, barking orders.

Once again, what kind of a leader are you? Are you hands on or do you sit on your lazy ass in your office barking order?

What are you taking or doing to boost your Immunity? Are you taking anything for your immune system?

I’ll tell you what I have been doing later in this blog.

For many of us, the Covid-19 pandemic served as a wake-up call, forcing us to take a frank look at how well our immune systems could serve us during challenging times. Is your immune health up to par? Could it save you from a monumental threat?

Eating a wide array of herbs and spices on a regular basis, Dr. Mercola explains, can go a long way toward strengthening your immune system and preventing illness.

No one is talking about eating healthier with home-grown food and such. Instead, they are promoting the vaccine; or what I would like to call it what it is, POISON, The doctors and the pharmaceutical are only after our money. They don’t want the truth out about the healthier way to boost your immunity. They rather keeps us unhealthy and at their beck and call. The more we depend on them, the more money they make.

Your immune system is your first line of defense against all disease, especially infectious disease, like Co-Vid.

The best way to develop immunity to any infectious threat is through natural exposure.

When you get a vaccine, you stimulate only your humoral immunity, the B cells. The T cells are not stimulated.

It’s important to know that even the medications and vaccines that so many rely on for protection against disease doesn’t work by themselves. But yet people seems to believe whatever the doctors tell them. They take what they say as God’s truth.

When you strengthen your own immune system, you strengthen your ability to create active immunity.

I have been taking elderberry syrup and ginger roots. I also am taking Glucosamine: Chondroitin and turmeric. I’m even taking cod liver oil.

Before the advent of drugs, plant remedies were the go-to medicines.

Elderberry is a bold flu and co-vid fighter.

Garlic is better for your heart and prevent cancer than anything the Pharmaceutical can offer you.

Ginger is a spicy medicinal powerhouse.

How many remembered taking vitamins when they were children? How many still do? Believe me, I was given vitamins when I was a child. The reason for it is because we are not getting enough vitamins in what we eat daily.

You may heard the statistic that about 80% of your immune system resides in your gut.

If you are anything like me, you probably don’t drink enough water like we should. We should drink up to 8-8ounces of glasses of water per day. The color of your urine can help you determine if you need to drink more water.

Sleep is absolutely vital to your health. Yet there are some who have trouble getting enough sleep. They takes drugs to sleep. Those who takes drugs to sleep, also have to take drugs to wake up. Mike Huckelby promotes a sleep relaxant to help him sleep. To me, it’s a drug and he should know better, being a former Baptist preacher. When he promoted this, I lose confidence in him.

The same with those who promotes eating healthier, but yet at the same time they rush to get the vaccine, as though it’s the miracle cure. I don’t have faith in them either. They are talking out of both side of their mouth.

We all know that coffee is used to help people wake up in the morning, because of the caffeine. But do you know that drinking herbal tea will help you relax; so that you can get a good nights sleep? It’s way better than any drugs, even the drug that Huckelby is promoting. I will not take it. I will settle with herbal tea instead. Not the regular tea either.

I’ll drink coffee in the morning; but I cannot drink too much coffee, otherwise it has the opposite effect on me, and I get sleepy.

Matter of fact, I have a cup of herbal tea with me as I write my blog. It helps me to relax and keep my focus; so that I can write.

I didn’t rush to get the vaccine like so many people did; even though I worked at a hospital. I put it off for as long as I could, hoping that somehow I could be exempt from it. When I couldn’t hold off anymore, I took the advice from my chiropractor, who told me to take real lemon juice to dilute the poison from the vaccine I was being force to get. My chiropractor also been helping to boost my immune system.

If it wasn’t for the benefits like health insurance and retirement, I wouldn’t had gotten the poison. Matter of fact, I wouldn’t get chemo if I ever come down with cancer. The vaccine and chemotherapy will just destroy your immune system.

Stop believing the doctors and those promoting any drugs like the vaccine! If anyone tells you about herbal and organic; and yet still promote the vaccine or any drugs, think twice before you believe them. They are just talking out of both side of their mouth. Do your research for yourself like I have been doing. Anyone who promotes the vaccines and other drugs is only looking after themselves. They don’t care about keeping us healthy. They want us to remain sick; that way they can continue making money.
