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.

  • 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.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Black President in Film and Television
    “WELL, IT IS BECAUSE HE’S BLACK”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BLACK PRESIDENT IN FILM AND TELEVISION Phillip Lamarr Cunningham A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Angela M. Nelson, Advisor Dr. Ashutosh Sohoni Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Butterworth Dr. Susana Peña Dr. Maisha Wester © 2011 Phillip Lamarr Cunningham All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Ph.D., Advisor With the election of the United States’ first black president Barack Obama, scholars have begun to examine the myriad of ways Obama has been represented in popular culture. However, before Obama’s election, a black American president had already appeared in popular culture, especially in comedic and sci-fi/disaster films and television series. Thus far, scholars have tread lightly on fictional black presidents in popular culture; however, those who have tend to suggest that these presidents—and the apparent unimportance of their race in these films—are evidence of the post-racial nature of these texts. However, this dissertation argues the contrary. This study’s contention is that, though the black president appears in films and televisions series in which his presidency is presented as evidence of a post-racial America, he actually fails to transcend race. Instead, these black cinematic presidents reaffirm race’s primacy in American culture through consistent portrayals and continued involvement in comedies and disasters. In order to support these assertions, this study first constructs a critical history of the fears of a black presidency, tracing those fears from this nation’s formative years to the present.
