    Manhattan Madness: The New York Trump Trial (part 3)

    Manhattan Madness: The New York Trump Trial (part 3)

    May 30, 2024 is a day that will live in infamy! Donald Trump became the first former President of the United States to be brought to court on felony charges and have a jury reach a verdict of guilty. Not to mention that this happened while he is currently running for President again and is the highest polling candidate.
    The ripple effects of this historical day will be felt indefinitely. The debates will rage over whether or not this was justice or merely political lawfare.
    In part 3, we cover the start of the trial and all attempts to lift the gag order, recuse Judge Merchan, delay the trial, or move it to another venue were shot down.
    We look at the prosecution's witness testimonies, especially the star witnesses Stormy Daniels and Michael Cohen.

    BONUS: How I Predicted Inflation Since the Lockdowns

    BONUS: How I Predicted Inflation Since the Lockdowns

    In this episode I play some clips from episodes of Truthspresso in early 2020 where I predicted that the pandemic relief measures would lead to price inflation.
    Prepare to be amazed! ;)
    Do I have the spiritual gift of prophecy?
    No. It's just what the Austrian School of economics understood would happen.
    A Biblical view of government forbids monetary inflation and such frivolous borrowing and spending as happened under the guise of "helping" people.

    The Assassination Attempt on President Trump!

    The Assassination Attempt on President Trump!

    On Saturday, July 13, at a rally in Pennsylvania, former President Trump was giving an outdoor speech. Six minutes into it, gunshots were fired!
    The President felt one round whiz by his head. A second one bloodied his right ear. He ducked in the nick of time to avoid a third one that likely wouldn't have missed.
    Thankfully, he was Ok. He expressed valiance as his security detail escorted him out.
    The world-changing news just won't stop! The USA is careening toward third-world status.
    Please pray for former President Trump, the current President Biden, and for a true revival.
    Whatever happens in November, violent activism isn't the solution.

    The Rich, Young Ruler: Salvation by the Law?!

    The Rich, Young Ruler: Salvation by the Law?!

    Does the account of the rich, young ruler in the gospels show that Jesus taught that we could obtain eternal life by keeping the commandments of the law to the best of our ability?
    It can seem that way--unless we really pay attention.
    Let's not gloss over the lesson Jesus taught not only to this rich, young man, but also to His disciples around Him and to us today.
    What are we trusting for God's acceptance? Jesus Christ Himself is the answer!
    Scriptures Referenced:
    Matthew 19:16-26
    Mark 10:17-27

    Creationism and life issues at the 2024 Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference

    Creationism and life issues at the 2024 Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference

    Chelsea and I exhibited Castle Rock Women's Health at the Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference hosted by the Christian Home Educators of Colorado.
    Taking a few short breaks from the exhibit I carried my portable recording gear with me. I found some exhibits with hosts willing to talk for a few minutes and pitch their services to a Truthspresso audience.
    In this episode I talk about the challenges that faced the conference this year and how God worked out the details.
    Notable speakers at the conference were George Barna and Heidi St. John.

Diverse Topics- Good production quality

Daniel has done a great job of bringing in diverse topics from economics to theology proper to personality discussions.
I particularly appreciate the production quality and down-to-earth discussions, especially with his sweet wife.
These are podcasts that I will have my older children listen to.
There was one podcast where Daniel mentions transgenderism. So, if your children aren't old enough to understand, just be sure to listen to the podcast first.

thanks Daniel for your comments and podcast! I look forward to your future topics.
