Simplified Exclamations About God’s Will by Jeffrey Gante from Tate Publishing & Enterprises was a very quick read. It is a mere 65 pages and very readable. Jeff writes like he is sitting there talking to you. He provides many verses to corroborate what he is telling you.
When Active Christian Media made […]

How The Left Was Won by Richard Mgrdechian was both enjoyable and annoying. Unfortunately, it was mostly annoying.
The book is written from a decidedly conservative point of view. This however caused the greatest disappointment. Richard had a great opportunity with this book, but he let it slip away with […]
Facing the Giants is a must see movie for Christians and those that like underdog sports movies in the vein of “Remember the Titans“, “Hoosiers” and “Rudy“. For those of you who have not heard of the movie, it is the first movie ever given a PG rating solely because of its Christian content. […]

The voters finally win a ruling. The requirements for third parties to be on the ballot in Illinois were excessive and now everyone can see why; they were unconstitutional. It is time for the politicians in Illinois to allow competition. It is good for the voters and the State. Please read […]
The U.S. Constitution was signed 219 years ago today. That was all the back in 1787 for those taught with Fuzzy Math. This document birthed the most radical form of government ever conceived. It gave the people the chance to govern themselves.
Tonight, the movie, A More Perfect Union, will be shown […]
Outgoing State Senator Adeline Geo-Karis has decided not to endorse either candidate running to take here seat in the 31st. Geo-Karis was defeated by Warren Township Supervisor Sue Simpson in the Republican primary this spring. It appears that raced caused hard feelings that have a left a deep wound.
The Schuerer Campaign sent me the following Press Release yesterday. It talks about how MoveOn.org is using its mailing list to rally the troops in support of Democrats in highly competitive Congressional races. This appears to include the 8th Congressional District since mailers are being received here.
It appears the race is a lot […]
The following letter to the editor was in the Daily Herald a couple of days ago. I found it hilarious. The writer wants change by re-electing the same person. He really wants the status quo, not change.
If you want change vote for Dave McSweeney or Bill Schuerer.
This day 5 years ago changed our world forever. I hope these pictures remind you why we must fight the evil in this world and share the love of Christ with all we can.

If you are looking for something to do this weekend indoors, I highly recommend you going to the movies and watch Invincible. The movie was very well done. Mark Wahlberg did an excellent job of portraying the struggles that Vince Papale endured on his journey to becoming the most unlikely and oldest […]
I saw this title and followed the link to The Boring Made Dull. It was an interesting read although I wish they had gone more in depth on why minimum wage increase hurt the poor instead of helping. It was a good observation for Christians though about how they should inform themselves before […]
I found this press release from the Schuerer campaign rather ammusing. He is classifying Bean as a Bush Democrat. This was funny to me, since the Democrats hate Bush.
Bean is social liberal and attempts to be fiscally moderate with certain calculated votes. She is big government for the most part, […]

I found that another Illinois Blogger, Romans 15:4 Project, (via Illinois Bloggers) writing about what options Christian voters have in the Gubernatorial race this November. He is coming to the same conclusion I am. The choice is becoming clearer by the day, write in Randy Stufflebeam.
As a conservative Christian, I cannot […]
