If you have ever been involved with Southern Baptists, I am sure you know about Lottie Moon.   She was a missionary to China in the late eighteen hundreds.  Southern Baptists have the largest foreign mission effort of any group in the world.  They raise almost all that money each year at Christmas time.  It isContinue reading “Miss Lottie Moon”

 After the trip to China just described, I worked with Chinese Intelligence for 22 years.  But before you question whether that was “good” or not let me explain.  Shortly after 1980 the Chinese authorities were still determined to know about the United States’ “management system”………just like the authorities in Russia wanted to know.   Since central planning of a huge economyContinue reading “More on China”

In the Summer of 1980 China had just been opened to outsiders. The people there all still wore those grey baggy clothes……everyone the same. If one was privileged to be able to “dress up” it had to be in one of those Mao suits. There was no style, no color as respects clothing. Except forContinue reading “China”

Remember, Dr. Hill said that God decided to do His work only through people. As Dr. Hill put it: That was the dumbest thingContinue reading “Dr. Edward Teller”

They had another wonderful trait. My friends who have Herefords and particularly Black Angus have all kinds of calving problems. TheContinue reading “Cattle Story”

This is one interesting guy. He surfaced at the very height of the Hippie Movement. Those of you that are old enough to remember 1967 and the years after that know of this extremely strange phenomenon. So many of the young people across the US started moving west, particularly to San Francisco and Los Angeles.Continue reading “Arthur Blessitt”

This week is the anniversary of the largest land-sea-air battle in world history. On this Good Friday before Easter, I think that it is only fitting for us to remember all those brave Americans who died to preserve our freedom on this anniversary, and what FDR said about our Faith in God. Ron The BattleContinue reading “Largest Land-Sea-Air Battle in World History”

This is about the born and unborn children of America…..our posterity.  The Founding Fathers of our country,  whose memory that so many current educators are trying to wipe away, were so very interested in their posterity……..the millions of yet unborn.  The Founding Fathers sacrificed their PROSPERITY for their POSTERITY.  Would you take the time toContinue reading “Our Posterity”
