Climate Warriors Ironically Caught in Arctic Sea Ice
Their aim was to capture film footage for use in a documentary about "climate change" (which, remember, is code for "dangerous to catastrophic manmade global warming).That was what 16 people identified as "Climate Change Warriors" were doing aboard the Arctic Tours ship MS Malmo when, on September 3, the ship got caught in Arctic sea ice that neither passengers nor crew anticipated.The incident occurred off Longyearbyen, Svalbard Archipelago, halfway between Norway (which owns the islands) and … [Read more...]
Organic Food, Essential Oils, and the Gospel of Grace

Anything with the label “natural” is quickly becoming the preferred method, even when we’re not totally sure what “all-natural” really entails. For some, essential oils are replacing traditional medicine, with promises to heal across the spectrum, from a simple cold to chronic illness.While … [Read more...]

How You Can Help Bahamians Devastated by Dorian
When Hurricane Dorian ground to a halt over the Bahamas, it was immediately clear that the result would be widespread devastation.

Few of us have the skills, the understanding, or even the opportunity to go on-site and lend direct help. Those who lack those but go on-site anyway often, … [Read more...]
