My good buddy Steve Deace last Thursday compared the current GOP primary race to a poker game. Take a listen to Steve's great riff on how Trump has changed the Republican template, perhaps forever.
By the way, Steve is this year's keynote speaker at the 8th Annual Hope Rides Alone Family Reunion Banquet honoring my fallen son Sergeant Eddie Jeffers. If you've not yet made your reservation, please do so today because seats are filling up fast.

"We are in a social civil war and we are losing because too many of us cannot 'be found in the thickest part of the battle.' Too often 'when the wind blows cold' in the form of opposition or ridicule, the evangelical does not take 'the bleak side of the hill,' but he or she runs from the hill. No more! As Reverend Spurgeon says, we must once again carry 'the heaviest end of the cross' on our shoulders."
I wrote those words, including parts of a Charles Spurgeon quote, in 2006. Nine years later they ring even truer as we find ourselves in the final battles of the social civil war.
That's why I want everyone to have a free copy of this book. It's available through Friday.
Please get your copy today by clicking on the book cover and share with everyone.
Right before the New Year I endorsed Newt Gingrich for President. You can see the video below to hear my reasoning.
Two weeks before my endorsement and after the culmination of a year of God working on my heart, I published a newsletter about how to critically think through voting for Newt. Below is the newsletter I'm providing for free that is usually only available to my subscribers, but I think it is important to get to as many people as possible.
The Truth Newsletter, Vol. I, Is. 19
Last night we had a townhall meeting at my house and I taught our crowd how to critically think through the political process when picking a candidate.
If any of you might be interested in attending a webinar on how to do this, please let me know.
Please spread the word about Aletheia Group L.L.C.

We are a people without national virtue.
We are a people who have come to accept as the norm the postmodern thinking of “what is right for you is not necessarily right for me”; meaning there is no absolute truth. Without absolute truth, there is no morality ruler. In Understanding Evangelicals: A Guide to Jesusland this writer wrote:
If there is no absolute truth then there is no chance for virtue. Random House Dictionary defines virtue as “moral excellence; goodness; righteousness.” Can America be a virtuous nation if we cannot agree on moral excellence, goodness, and righteousness? Without virtue America cannot last as its Founders envisioned.
President John Adams, while addressing the military, stated:
Historians would be hard-pressed to find a time when avarice, ambition, or revenge were more misguided and unabated than today. Some would say that is the outcome of the free market system. The free market system is no more responsible for the societal greed than your television set is responsible for the filth it displays. To blame America’s greed on the capitalist system is the same tortuous logic that says guns are responsible for criminals and murderers using guns.
So where is the problem? It is with the citizen. We the People are the problem. While Barack Obama tried to tell America that “we are the ones we’ve been waiting for”, in actuality we are the problem we are trying to fix.
In the never-ending assault on religion and morality, primarily Christianity, America has set itself so far off course that it is almost impossible to imagine the country ever righting itself.
