If I lived in Iowa, I’d caucus for Huck

everfaith

Too bad the Texas primaries aren’t until March!  Huckabee often compares politics to being in a brutal sports arena.  And he’s right.  People of all walks of life get emotional and sometimes downright ugly when pushing for their candidate.  We are very fortunate that in our country, we don’t have riots or burn churches when a certain candidate doesn’t win an election.  I am so grateful for America…for the freedom to choose.  I once again urge you, whether you live in Iowa or New Hampshire or in one of the dozens of states whose primaries are in early February, get … Continue reading If I lived in Iowa, I’d caucus for Huck

This Homeschooler is still for Huckabee

everfaith

This post is a rebuttal to a 3-part post against Huckabee by SpunkyHomeschooler, another homeschooler. Before reading my discourse, you might want to read hers. It can be found here. A friend sent me the link to her site. I have only been homeschooling for one-and-a-half years. Before I had my daughter, I taught in a Texas public school for three years. I loved my students with every ounce of my being; teaching was an emotional roller coaster. They came from homes and backgrounds that I could not possibly relate to — 97 percent of the students in our school … Continue reading This Homeschooler is still for Huckabee

The Truth-o-Meter

everfaith

Some time ago I heard about CNN’s conservative guy Glenn Beck.  I watched him a couple of times and laughed.  I figured he was sort of like Bill O’Reilly’s counterpart.  I even bought his book, An Inconvenient Book, because I loved the name.  And while reading the book, I discovered that he is a Mormon. Way back in high school, I dated a guy who was a Mormon.  I’ll never forget the night he took me to a high school dance.  Rather than going out to dinner, his family turned their home into a fine dining establishment.  (We lived in … Continue reading The Truth-o-Meter

Mysteries Abound In The Underdog

everfaith

Life.  It’s teeming with the mysterious.  Scientists spend decades, even centuries, trying to figure out the inner workings of our physical bodies and our mental capacities.  We’ve created machines that take us soaring higher than eagles.  Computer technology allows us to know about events halfway across the world within minutes of them happening.  We can communicate with each other across thousands of miles while sitting in our cars or hiking in parks.  With all of these technological advances, the message of the cross to those who don’t believe seems…out of touch.  Who ever heard of someone coming back to life … Continue reading Mysteries Abound In The Underdog

Huckabee Pulls Ahead

everfaith

According to the latest national poll of likely voters in the Republican primary by Rasmussen, Mike Huckabee has pulled ahead of Rudy Giuliani.  The race is still very close, with 20% indicating support for Huckabee and 17% supporting Giuliani.  And in the state of Arkansas, the poll found that Huckabee would beat Hillary Clinton. The Bible teaches us that the Lord directs the hearts of kings.  In Proverbs 21, we find that: 1 The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases. 2 All a man’s ways seem right to … Continue reading Huckabee Pulls Ahead
