People Amaze Me & So Does God

We spend a lot of time debunking the bu****it that seems to consume our world, and I, for one, think that is a good thing.
Kathy, Jess, and I are in Red Lodge, Montana, celebrating Thanksgiving.
We rented a cool little cabin, right on the edge of town.
Last night we went to the Snow Cap, the town hangout.
It was BINGO night.
The place was full.

We like to sit at the bar when we go out of town.
There is something about that bar stool that connects you to the locals.
We sat next to a couple from Billings, Montana’s largest city, about 40 miles from Red Lodge.
We discovered they come here often.
They told us, they sit in the same place because they always seem to meet the most interesting and sometimes strange people.
I’m pretty sure we fit both classifications.
In the conversation, they told us they had driven up into the mountains that afternoon, where her now fiancé had asked her to marry him.

We walked down the snowy street to a restaurant where our waitress chatted it up with us, told us about the town gossip, and swooned over our pictures of our grandson Niko.

This morning, as my mind rewinds to last night, I can’t help but smile.
The world is full of people like that.
You don’t have to look for them, but must put yourself in the right stool and be open to starting a conversation.

Yes, there are a lot of angry, nasty people in this world who like to spread their misery on the rest of us.
For too long, out of the niceness of our hearts, we gave them too much credibility.
But not anymore.

The last five or six years have been a real test for you and me.
We had to see the worst so we could fight for the better, and we are finally seeing wins.

We must NEVER stop pushing for change.
But we also have to stop allowing the buzzkillers to rob us of our peace and our joy.
I’m thankful for each one of you, freedom lovers.
God fearing people who, like me, are starting to understand the power of the truth.
Enjoy your day, your family and friends, and thank your God for His amazing grace.

Amazing things are happening in the Timber Industry despite what you hear.
In Philomath, Oregon, two young women and a supportive board of directors understand that to be competitive, one must compete.

11/26/2025

Oregon, you are so amazing. In two weeks, 13 days, you did the impossible. We'll tell you what we're talking about. Plus, a group of signature gatherers in Prineville, Oregon, has quite the story. It has to do with antifa, no king's folks, and the police. They join us live to fill us in.

Just a month or so and the petition gatherers have doubled the number they need. Breaking News.

Perhaps We Create Our Limitations!

The world is a complex and divisive place.
You can no longer refuse to pay attention, or you risk being washed out to sea.
The power struggle appears to be between the left and the right.
Don’t be fooled, it’s much deeper and darker than that.

This morning, I read this line that won’t stop circulating inside my head.
“He will do just as much for us as we let Him do in us.”
Think about that?

We are His creation.
He knows the plans He has for us.
He’s in the process of working those plans out for us.
The only limitation is based on us.

We are born with a heart, and that heart has a hole designed in it that is meant to be filled by God.
Life steps on us, people do bad things to us, and we start to fill that hole with something other than Him.
We find ways to numb our pain, pleasures that provide temporary solace, but that hole has a purpose, and all the garbage we allow to fill it, at some point, must be cleared so God can inhabit our lives.

God is the ultimate heart surgeon.
He understands what’s clogging our arteries and, over a lifetime, points them out, guides us to healing, and makes us into the men and women we are designed to be.
Each of us is uniquely qualified for so much more than we settle for.

Back to that hole in our heart.
The more debris we allow Him to take out of our hearts, the more He can do in us, with us, and for us.
It’s a partnership.
God cannot partner with sin.
Sin is what is usually substituted as our heart filler.
It has to come out, or He won’t come in.
The greatest men and women who ever lived were those willing to give God every corner of their heart so that He could fill it with Himself.

We are seeing a bright light shine on the earth, and that is because light always shines in the darkest places.
The world we live in is a dark and challenging place.
But remember, God knew this day would come.
We were each created to live in this moment.

If you look in the news, those under attack are the most willing to give it all.
The masses will try to preserve what was and fail.
Do not follow their folly.
It’s tempting and promises unity and prosperity, but it’s a lie.
Our search is for the truth, a truth that sets us free and cleans out our hearts so the Father can abide with us.
How much are we willing to give?

Tonight at 4 pm PT, we will be joined by the chief petitioners of an initiative to put the gas tax in Oregon on the ballot. They hope to have a count of the number of signatures they have.
Tune in for a live update on any of our social media channels.

11/25/2025

People all over Oregon are signing a petition to get the Democrats' gas tax put before the voters. We'll check in live with a booth in Eugene. We'll also talk with the chief petitioner to get an update. And we check in with another lawmaker about the governor's recent executive order and what that means to you.

Growing In Hard Places

On a recent hike, I noticed these trees growing out of the rocks.
There appeared to be little or no soil at the roots, yet these trees still thrived and stood tall.
If we were planting a tree, there is no way we’d try to get the seeds to sprout in cracks formed in solid rock.
Most wouldn’t survive.
But God gives some of His creations difficult starting places, not because He is cruel, but because He knows what each soul needs to realize its value.

I read this morning: “The tests of life are meant to make us, not break us. Trouble may demolish a man’s business, but build up his character.“ Mabtbie Babcock

Grow where God plants you. Don’t compare your soil to the starting place of others.
Our foundation is what is important.
The more solid, the more you can take.

There are many planted in fertile soil where the wind rarely blows and the cold rarely comes.
Where much is required, much is received.
Your fall begins when you start to compare.
Have a great Sunday.

Why All The Resistance To More Vaccine Research

For anyone who has had a family member or friend who struggles with autism, it’s hard for us to understand the resistance society seems to have to making sure there is no link between vaccines and the condition.
People cite study after study, but don’t look at who did the study, how the study was done, and most importantly, who funded it.

In California, one in eight boys will be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
Nationwide, the numbers have also skyrocketed.
Back when you and I were kids, the statistics show very few cases.
And it’s not that awareness is up; the number of cases is what’s up.

U.S. Secretary of Health Robert Kennedy expresses deep skepticism about the current state of vaccine studies, arguing they are inadequate and often conflicted by industry ties.
Kennedy also cites Placebo-controlled trials: Kennedy advocates for the use of inert placebo-controlled trials for all new vaccines, a significant departure from current practices, where new vaccines are often tested against existing, approved vaccines (as withholding a known effective vaccine for a deadly disease is considered unethical). He has stated that "placebo-controlled trials are gold-standard science" and believes that without them, the risk profiles of childhood vaccines are largely unknown.

How did the vaccine program become such a sacred cow for so many?
Why is the vaccine program immune to questioning?
It’s untouchable and sacred to promoters, but when you start looking at what is being pumped into our children’s veins, wouldn’t more testing, to be sure vaccines are safe, sound prudent?

Kennedy argues that there’s a conflict of interest with the medical experts who have historically advised the government on vaccine policy, such as the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), who have conflicts of interest due to financial ties to pharmaceutical companies
HELLO, does that not raise a red flag for you?

If we discovered the sugar in gummy bears or the red dye in Fruit Loops cereal might be causing something as devastating as autism, would we as a country be screaming for more studies?
If there were evidence that gas-powered vehicles or carbon could be linked to autism, there would be no studies.
You’d see legislation forced on the population and regulations imposed immediately.
But somehow, the vaccine is sacred to those who have never had a child or relative changed by autism.
You haven’t had someone you love, normal one day and the next, forever changed.

This is not about whether vaccines are good or bad.
More studies do not tell you that you are doing the wrong thing or that those of us who question vaccines are right.
This is to do the best studies we can, without the ties to the vaccine makers, so we can “DETERMINE” whether vaccines play a role, or not.
No one’s taking away your choice, but quit taking away ours as you refuse to even consider that vaccines might be part of what’s destroying so many lives.

We Won’t Go Back, Ever.

Something amazing is happening to the culture in America.
While one ideology goes deeper into the rabbit hole of socialism, the other is waking up to fight so that their voice is heard and America is restored.
Good and evil make lousy partners.
Cries for unity are just smoke and mirrors.
What the manipulators of the narrative want is for you and me to shut up, sit down, and go back to the land of apathy.

It ain’t gonna happen.
You fired us up.
Where was all the talk of unity during the last administration?
Exactly, you were in the driver’s seat and took us on a detour and dozens of wrong turns.
It’s time you pull over, get into the backseat, and hand us the wheel.

In Oregon, people from the left, right, and middle are lining up in big cities and small towns to give the middle finger to the governor and her super majority of Democratic lawmakers, who passed a $4.3 billion tax, which voters clearly said they didn’t support.
They asked to vote on it, but left-wing lawmakers had their fingers in their ears, refusing to listen to the will of the people.
Now those voters are gathering signatures so that democracy has its say, as they will get to vote on the idea.

In the small school district of Rogue River, a couple of moms found out one of the teachers was showing a video that included a cartoon r**e scene to their 13-year-olds.
Their kids came home shocked.
The moms, and now others in the community, are mad as Hell and making a huge stink about it.

In the Bethel School District, questions are raised over a “Rainbow Club” designed for students with gender issues.
It’s not just parents asking for answers; we’re getting emails and texts from teachers and even some administrators who say something is up and the public needs to know.
We’ve put in a request and are waiting.

I remember when COVID was at its height, people like you and me were so frustrated because we couldn’t ask hard questions without being canceled.
I would ask God, “What is this all about?”
Now, I understand.
They pushed too hard, too long, and too much.
Instead of going along, they made us so angry that we fought back and continued to push them for answers.
Pandora’s Box is open.
All these people lining up to fight illegal immigration, more taxes, and degradation of our schools are in some way connected to the far left’s push for power.
We are awake and taking action.
We Won’t Go Back…..Ever.
