🎶This is my story... I'm so thankful God had enough grace to save me as a 10 year old boy, and He will do the same for you if you have faith to receive Him. Please watch this video message about salvation. Let me know what you think! I'd love to pray for you and with you.

@forestfrank Yes. The Bible says it is

Do you believe church attendance is essential for spiritual growth?

@SBrudnak @rynhayden Ah, yes…. Then I had to find you a belt.

Looking forward to meeting @rynhayden for the first time in person. Thinking this might be what our first conversation might go like 😂 This is very close to what my conversation with @StephenRuss sounded like the first time we met in person. He’s shorter than what you think 😂

@Protestia That’s actually super cool

Connect Church's 'Decor team' is getting ready for Easter.

@EricLDaugh @grok what does it mean to advance…? What happens next?

🚨 BREAKING: The US Senate just voted to ADVANCE the SAVE America Act, 51-48 It's time for a TOTAL FLOOR TAKEOVER and Republican senators drawing out debate for DAYS! Insane an 85-15 issue with the public can barely crack 50% in the Senate. DON'T GIVE UP UNTIL IT'S LAW! 🇺🇸

@MKnowlesShow The only one saying Tucker is being investigated and potentially charged with a crime is… Tucker. Thats what you should take with a grain of salt.

TUCKER CARLSON: The CIA Spied On Me Talking To Iranians

What’s stopping you from moving to Compton, California … buying this adorable and affordable starter home for only $650,000 … and raising a family in it?

I could also see a pastor taking one due to special circumstances… Health crisis, family needs, etc. I know of at least one pastor who would still be pastoring if he had just taken a six week break. Instead, he resigned and regrets it. But the notion one should take a sabbatical (which I would think indicates 6-8 weeks) before 10 years just to take one seems odd if you consider your job a calling. 🤷🏼‍♂️

@StephenRuss @JoshuaBarzon I’m on board with that, Stephen! If the church offers a specific number of weeks for vacation, definitely use them. It’s great for your well-being and theirs. I usually take about two weeks each year.

Pastors - what are your thoughts on ministry sabbaticals?

@tracykillinger @mnwickens @TonyShirley1611 @pshirley86 @PastorShaneRice Thank you!

Praying the Lord uses u men Powerfully tomorrow Preach! @mnwickens @StephenRuss @TonyShirley1611 @pshirley86 @PastorShaneRice

@DonnyMcMe He’s a freak! Super cool deer.

@StephenRuss Gnarly rack!

Last October, Eli and I had the incredible experience of shooting a double on big bucks. Just got the barrel mount home from Dean Stallion at American Taxidermy Inc., and it found a home in the family room! Looks good! 🦌🦌

Thankful for the 14 souls saved at our annual sportsmen’s outreach! This event has become a much-anticipated time each year. @ShootStraightTV and Timber Cleghorn did a wonderful job speaking!

Yes, we were able to get in, because we were a group of tourists and the economy has struggled mighty since the war broke out on October 7. They welcomed us at their shops and the street vendors were desperate. Very depressed, streets empty, but we were able to see the holy sites there. Some of that had to do with it being Ramadan at the time. The Palestinian guide who showed us the holy sites said his family goes back several generations, and they were down from 300,000 to 30,000 Christians in Bethlehem. I do not remember the span of time he mentioned in which that took place.

@StephenRuss @SteveDeaceShow Thanks for sharing. Were you able to get in, and what did you see?

This is true and something you’re almost never told.

@NKE_homeschool @SteveDeaceShow The West Bank is not under Israeli control. They are forbidden from even entering Bethlehem. I took this picture in March 2025. Palestinians are 10X more anti-Christian than Israel.

@SteveDeaceShow So, what happened? How and why did they leave? And, why didn't the Israeli government step in to protect that portion of their civilian population?

@SteveDeaceShow I was there last March, and we were told this. Crazy.

@DerekEckels 🔥

Abraham tithed without God telling him, and now people won’t tithe because they say in the NT God didn’t tell them. Maybe this is one reason why Abraham was called a friend of God.

Contrary to what many are saying, Marco Rubio didn't really say Israel led us into the war with Iran. Here's why:

@MattWalshBlog Puts us in better position with Russia and China?

I supported the Venezuela operation and I’m on board with acquiring Greenland because they both pass the only litmus test I care about: Will it be a net benefit to the United States? Venezuela and Greenland are low risk, high reward. Big wins for our people. We gain much and lose little or nothing. Easy call, as far as I’m concerned. I’m not actually an isolationist. I’m just an America First conservative in the strictest sense of the term. Does the benefit for America outweigh the cost? It must, or it’s a bad policy. This is one of my absolute core political principles, and always has been. With this Iran thing, I don’t see how the math works in our favor. Or at least it seems highly unlikely that it will work in our favor. And so I’m against it. If that puts me at odds with the administration, and with much of the conservative commentariat, so be it. I have to stick to what I believe. People who have followed my work for a long time are not remotely surprised by my stance on this.
