Listen July 3, 2012 Andy Griffith passes away Perhaps few photographs are more poignant concerning the common musical interests and spiritual heritage that were shared between Andy Griffith (June 1, 1926 – July 3, 2012) and Emmett Forrest (September 3, 1927 – January 12, 2013) than this featured picture. From childhood, Andy and Emmett shared a bond of friendship that endured throughout their lives. On the Andy Griffith Show, Emmett Forrest was fictionalized by the character Emmett Clark the fix-it-man, played by Paul Hartman.

Listen Akhil Amar In 2012, distinguished Yale Law School professor Akhil Reed Amar[1] published his book, America's Unwritten Constitution: The Precedents and Principles We Live By.[2] Summarizing his book Amar said, "Despite its venerated place atop American law and politics, our written Constitution does not enumerate all of the rules and rights, principles and procedures that actually govern modern America." Suggesting that interpretation of the Constitution "cannot be understood in textual isolation," Amar insists that jurisprudence must have the right to "particularly privileged sources...Read more...Read more...
ListenFor nearly a century, secularists and the irreligious have been seeking to rewrite America's Christian history to conform it to their worldview.

The History Channel and other popular media outlets have long advocated a rewriting of American history that began in the first quarter of the twentieth century.

ListenThis post is part 12 of the series:Christian Living SeriesOften, the Christmas season is the most meaningful time of year—for both the believer and unbeliever. Many fail to use this season of the year to point to Christ as fully as they might to Christianize the world around them. While some attempt to sanctify the carnal and merely sensuous for Christian purposes, the Apostle Paul warns believers to build with materials that are most precious and most enduring (1 Corinthians 3:10-18). For this reason, Christian leaders should look eagerly upon the Christmas season with the intent to...Read more...Read more...
"Almost all the civil liberty now enjoyed in the world owes its origin to the principles of the Christian religion.

By the principles of the Christian religion we are not to understand the decisions of ecclesiastical councils...No; the religion which has introduced civil liberty, is the religion of Christ and his apostles, which enjoins humility, piety and benevolence; which acknowledges in every person a brother, or a sister, and a citizen with equal rights. This is genuine Christianity, and to this we owe our free constitutions of government.
