(Sometimes we tend to forget how horrible war can be.  We should be reminded.) This is a repeat of some sanguinary lessons from the Great War of 1914-18. In the years leading up to the Great War, French military thinkers had wavered back and forth over the best strategy and tactics to employ in the […]

As most of the family knows by now, my son Harold Jordan is organizing a family reunion to be held at Blowing Rock, North Carolina, August 23-25, 2024. I believe Harold coordinated with Joy Kuhar on some of the planning. I look forward to it, and I’m already signed up. Our last reunion was at […]

I have been deeply concerned by the actions of the Justice Department, the courts, and Congress in dealing with the so-called insurrection of January 6, 2021. I realize that some people apparently consider that event to have been an almost unprecedented threat to our Democracy, but I believe they are wrong. Only a few hundred […]

There are powerful forces abroad in Europe and America that seek to destroy the Christian faith. Nowhere is this more evident than in Finland where a member of the Finnish Parliament and a Christian pastor have been put on trial for publically quoting the Bible and publishing a booklet promoting traditional sexual ethics. Pavi Rasanan, […]

On August 11 Attorney General Garland threw down a gauntlet in the face of Congress by appointing David Weiss as special counsel to investigate Joseph Biden.. The sheer audacity of it astounds me. Does he believe that this bold move will shock and blind us to the point we will become oblivious to the evil […]

Who can forget the Apostle Paul’s beautiful paean to Faith, Hope, and Love, with a special emphasis on Love. Today, I wish to emphasize hope. These are dark and troubled times. We are engaged in a great spiritual battle for the soul of our nation. At times I feel as Lot and his family must […]

Yesterday was a sad day for the republic. For the fourth time we saw a former President indicted on spurious charges.
