Timestamps:
Timestamp: (0:22). The insane pace of our news cycles right now, and a historical reminder of how it once was (and why the current way is so bad for our mental health).
Timestamp: (3:16). America bombs Iran, Trump negotiates a ceasefire, and the political fighting about the effectiveness of the strikes takes off. (All in a matter of days.)
Timestamp: (8:08). This is a big victory for the Trump Administration, at least for the moment.
Timestamp: (10:02). But big questions (and obstacles) remain for President Trump. Let’s look at those…
Timestamp: (15:37). Two BIG reasons that we’ll know the truth of how successful the US bombing campaign was against Iran in the coming weeks and months.
Timestamp: (17:46). Three big challenges Trump will now face with Iran.
Timestamp: (25:31). Was this the best week of announcements for Ukraine in nearly a year? Let’s cover three good things that happened for Ukraine.
Timestamp: (30:53). Has Trump changed in his feelings toward Ukraine, following a pivotal NATO meeting in Europe? It certainly seems so.
Timestamp: (38:47). While the world focuses on Iran and Ukraine, China continues to build up its threats (and capacities) toward Taiwan.
Timestamp: (43:32). Let me end by sharing some Biblical wisdom and spiritual encouragement.
Hi everyone! Thank you for being here.
If you’re new to the show, let me say this. Each week, I cover hot spots and critical threats that might affect our country, as well as keep you informed about our military. I end each show by sharing some Biblical wisdom (without being too pushy).
My hope is you end each show better informed, less worried, and more optimistic (about both our country and your life).
Also, huge shout out to those of you whose paid subscriptions make it possible for me to devote time and resources to researching and compiling the news each week.

Let’s end with some notes on faith
As you know, if you want true peace, I believe you should look to God and the Bible for that — not a country, not a party, and certainly not a person. I believe that not only can God give you ever-lasting life, but that He can also give you peace in this life. God is like a good shepherd. He leads you by the still waters. He restores your soul. He guides you out of the death and destruction of sin. If you know nothing about the Bible, but want to test the waters and maybe try it out, check out my resource page here.
By the way, if you’re dealing with depression, PTSD, or thoughts of suicide, I have a link I’d like you to check out. In fact, it’s an entire page long. A pep talk, if you will, that I believe will help. I also have listed a hotline that you can call, whether you’re a service member or just a civilian. Here’s the page: PTSD.
Reminder: If you know nothing about the Bible, but want to read some of it for the first time in a while (or maybe ever), check out my resource page here. I know it’s a big book that can seem overwhelming, but that link can help you. And yes, you can read it from a phone, computer, laptop, etc. (See my link above.)
I also have a podcast that focuses solely on faith called The Search for God. You can find it below.
Love my moderate, optimistic view of politics and want to know more about how I see things?

I always like to end with an important reminder, whether you’re a Christian or not.

I’ve written 12 of them to date, and they include a CIA/Marine sniper series, a detective series, a private investigator series, an action-packed Western, a motivational self-help book about President Obama, and two realistic war novels: one about World War II and one about Afghanistan.
