My new video looks at another miracle performed by Jesus. While teaching in the synagogue, Jesus heals a man with a withered hand. The healing not only shows Jesus' divine power, but also a profound example of compassion and mercy. It also showed the Pharisees' frustration in trying to catch Jesus in violation of the Sabbath law. Jesus after the healing, pointed out to everyone the importance of doing good even on the Sabbath.

The U.S. is now seeing the highest illiteracy rates in 155 years! The National Literacy Institute in a study found that 21 percent of U.S. adults are illiterate. That rate accounts for higher welfare recipients, unemployment, and to our surging incarceration rates. All of these result in taxpayer losses of $2.2 trillion dollars throughout the year. My new video report entitled "A Literacy Crisis Happening In America."

Another miracle of Jesus was the healing of a girl who was possessed by an unclean spirit. Found in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark. The girl's mother was a Gentile woman who found Jesus and begged him to heal her daughter. Jesus reminded her that his first ministry priority was to the Jews. When the mother humbled herself to Jesus and truly believed that He could heal her daughter, Jesus had compassion and told her to return home and find that the demon had left the girl. This video with another account of a miracle by Jesus!

Every year Open Doors' World Watch List ranks the 50 countries where Christians endure the most extreme persecution. In 2026 Open Doors found 315-million Christians worldwide facing very high or extreme persecution for their faith. That means 1 in 7 Christians are suffering persecution around the world. My new video reveals Open Doors' 2026 rankings for Christian persecution.

A 2025 Pew Research Center study shows that more and more younger adults are giving up on achieving the American Dream. The Dream has been decimated by unaffordable housing, less good career jobs, and rising prices on just about everything. This is gutting out the middle class from within. Now younger adults feel that the American Dream is slipping away. All of this causing loss of many core American values, such as family formation. I hope my new video you'll find informational.

In the Gospel Book of John, the Bible records the sixth miracle performed by Jesus. In chapter 9 we find Jesus healing a blind man who was blind from birth. Besides showing mercy for the blind man, Jesus may have healed him to show how Israel's spiritual blindness was also going to be removed someday. Also, the act may have allowed the blind man to identify as a personal witness what Jesus had done for him. My new video, "The Sixth Miracle of Jesus In The Gospel Of John."

The fifth miracle of Jesus happens in Matthew 14:22-33 of the Bible. Jesus tells his disciples to get on a boat and go to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, where he would meet them. As his disciples proceed far away from the coast Jesus left them from, a violent storm incuse and they cannot make any headway rowing. Suddenly, an image appears far from the boat walking towards them, and the disciples become scared that it's a ghost. Then they hear a voice saying "Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid." Eventually the apostle Peter started walking on the sea too, but sinks when he became scared of the storm. Jesus rescues Peter and they enter the boat where the disciples began to praise and worship Jesus for his power.

AI, stands for artificial intelligence computer systems, that conduct tasks that historically required human intelligence to complete. This includes recognizing human speech, making decisions, identifying patterns, generating written content, steering a car or truck, and analyzing data. A lot of people today are wondering if the benefits of AI are worth the resulting human job losses, production efficiencies, cost savings, etc.? My new program, "Do We Really Want AI To Replace More Human Decision Making?"

This is the story of the Prodigal Son found in the Bible's book of Luke. It describes how a father had two sons that worked his land. One son requests that his father give him his portion of the family estate early. After receiving the inheritance the younger son then tells his family that he is leaving them. The son goes to a distant land and squanders all his money. To survive he works on a pig farm. After realizing his dire situation the son decides to return to his father and beg him to forgive him. The father welcomes him back and calls for a celebration party. This angers the older son who is jealous and refuses to forgive his brother. A story about a father's love, and the sin of self-righteousness.

Pew Research has released their 2024 research study on the role of religion in America. A large number of people said the role of religion in public life is shrinking, and is believed to be a bad thing for the country. Most Americans surveyed think that religion plays a positive role in public life. Overall there is widespread concern that religion's influence in society is declining too rapidly. My new video "A Lack Of Influence Of Religion In The U.S. Disturbing To Many."

The Book of Enoch is a controversial religious book that was not included in the Christian Bible. Its contents included discussions of demons, giants, fallen angels, and why the great flood was morally necessary. The book of Enoch portrays rebellious angels that came to earth and bred with earth women, to produce a race of destructive giants named the Nephilim. My new video entitled, "The Controversial Book of Enoch And The Nephilim."

The US. government has placed new generations of Americans in financial peril because of their out-of-control spending. The congress has crossed over the $33 trillion threshold of debt. In recent months the debt is accelerating with over $1 trillion added almost every three months. Spending is out running revenues by such a huge margin that the ratio of public debt to GDP cannot be maintained. My new video looks at this, and also how the non-stop printing of money is weakening the value of the dollar worldwide.

This new video explores why grocery store food recalls are at record levels in the US. Everything from coffee, ice crème, to produce. The USDA says there has been a 125% increase in recalls when compared to 2004-2013. I'll also discuss some of the reasons for all the recalls.

Child poverty rates in the U.S. are reaching the highest numbers in many years. More than 11 million children are estimated to be living in poverty. That means that one in seven, or 15 percent, are living in struggling homes. Many factors, including the pandemic, have caused child poverty increases. It worsened in 2022 when pandemic relief benefits began to expire. This new video looks at U.S. skyrocketing child poverty rates since 2021.

Here is the amazing account of Jesus' Third Miracle with the healing of the paralyzed man at the pool of Bethesda. The pool was thought to have healing powers, so the man came often and laid next to it hoping someone would help him enter the water. But before he could get in other people would beat hit first to it. Jesus comes along and knows how the man has suffered for many years, so he says to the paralyzed man do you want to be made well? Without needing the pool, Jesus tells him to "take up his bed and walk." Trusting Jesus, the man is healed and goes away on his own power! The miracle is not only a lesson of Jesus' healing power, but also judging the paralyzed man's sins that got him into the position originally.

This new video report looks at U.S. civics testing, and why more students are receiving failing scores. I'll look at how this is happening, and reveal some expert's ideas on how to improve civics education in our schools. Civics and history knowledge are essential in promoting our American government, and attempting to ensure our freedoms and Constitutional rights will continue on. My new program, "More US Students Can't Pass A Basic Civics Test."
