With last Friday’s shows at Newport and Brookstone Meadows, Claire and I finished off an absolutely fantastic “When Swing Was King” Christmas season. And, in doing so, we tied a record — 17 shows in all! Our presentations 2 two senior centers in Branson, 1 up in Tekemah, 1 at New Cassel, 1 “home show,”…

1) “Lawlessness Ablaze” (Denny Hartford, Vital Signs Blog) From the article — It is an all too obvious and very tragic truth that our world is absolutely ablaze in lawlessness. Absolutely, out of control ablaze. Nevertheless, there remain Christians who stick their head in comfortable sand and try to ignore the flames, while other believers naively downplay…
What a terrific time we had this morning as we hosted a “When Swing Was King” Brunch for a few friends who braved the snow and made it to our home for a meal of eggs and sausage, hash browns, fruit, chocolate cake, cheese danish, apple fritters, cranberry toast, sparkling juices, tea, and coffee.

It is an all too obvious and very tragic truth that our world is absolutely ablaze in lawlessness. Absolutely, out of control ablaze.

1) “Twenty Million Dead: The Generation Abortion Stole from America” (John MacGhlionn, American Spectator) From the article — Imagine an entire generation, then erase nearly a third of it.
