    SPEAKERS CONFIRMED OUTSTANDING REGISTERCONSERVATIVE TODAY WCS18.COM SUMMIT. 2018 WESTERN Principled Ideas from the Centennial Institute Publisher, Dr. Donald W. Sweeting Volume 10, Number 4 • April 2018 Editor, Jeff Hunt MILITARY STRENGTH, This is like looking through the wrong end of a telescope. It UNDERSTANDING THE THREAT, is not American strength that’s provocative, it’s American AND AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY weakness that’s provocative. That is the reality the new administration faced in January, Amb. John Bolton, WCS17 and several significant things have been done since then. The president proposed a significant increase in the military budget over the Obama administration proposals, and it looks like the House of Representatives will authorize that increase. While I’m a great believer in reducing and eliminating deficits, we need to build up the military. Doing so doesn’t require larger deficits, it just means there are more wasteful domestic programs that are going to have to be cut. This starts by changing the debate on the level of military readiness we need. We need to recreate and reestablish the missile defense system that the George W. Bush administration began to protect us from rogue nations’ nuclear weapons programs. We need to rebuild the Navy to a suitable level. Under the last John Bolton, National Security Advisor of the United States, speaking at the 2017 Western administration, we watched the number of ships in our Navy Conservative Summit. drop to 285, the smallest number since 1916. Most of our astute military observers think we need a navy of 355 ships, so It roughly six-months since President Trump’s inauguration you can see we have a long way to go.

(202) 429-8970 April 19, 2017 Their Attorneys -ii- SUMMARY In this Petition, WSBS Licensing, Inc. and its parent company Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (“SBS”) seek modification of the television market of WSBS-TV, Key West, Florida (the “Station”), to reinstate 41 communities (the “Communities”) located in the Miami- Ft. Lauderdale Designated Market Area (the “Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA” or the “DMA”) that were previously deleted from the Station’s television market by virtue of a series of market modification decisions released in 1996 and 1997. SBS seeks recognition that the Communities located in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties form an integral part of WSBS-TV’s natural market. The elimination of the Communities prior to SBS’s ownership of the Station cannot diminish WSBS-TV’s longstanding service to the Communities, to which WSBS-TV provides significant locally-produced news and public affairs programming targeted to residents of the Communities, and where the Station has developed many substantial advertising relationships with local businesses throughout the Communities within the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale DMA. Cable operators have obviously long recognized that a clear nexus exists between the Communities and WSBS-TV’s programming because they have been voluntarily carrying WSBS-TV continuously for at least a decade and continue to carry the Station today.

  • Dear Church, Thyatira Bryan Dunagan, Sept
    Dear Church, Thyatira Bryan Dunagan, Sept. 29, 2019 Well, it is so great to be with you, and I'm so thankful for our music leaders and for Ashley Irons. She is such a gift to me, I know, and my family. Thank you. She's one of my pastors in addition to her giftedness in leading music. She is just a woman of great wisdom and who loves Jesus. So, we have been in a series looking at these seven letters to seven churches in the Book of Revelation. I have loved this series. I hope that it has been helpful and encouraging to you, but part of it is just spending time in the last book of the Bible. I had a grad school professor who wrote this about Revelation: "If it ever became illegal in my part of the world, as it actually is in other places this very moment, to own a complete copy of the Bible, and if the authorities as an act of mercy allowed me to possess just one book of the Bible, I would without hesitation keep the last." "I would keep the Book of Revelation because," and he would often say this, "no other book in the Bible presents the gospel as powerfully as the last book does." No other book, in the face of all that threatens to undo us, announces this hope that we have in Jesus the way Revelation does. No other book helps us to see Jesus as clearly as he is right now as the Book of Revelation.
