Gallatin Brawl
Broadcast Date: November 01, 2026
August 6, 1838, Daviess County Missouri: The local county elections were heating up, the Democrats verses the Whigs. William Peniston, a Whig, was running for a seat as a state representative. He had campaigned throughout the county, but came to the realization he was not likely to win due to the large number of Mormon voters in that…
Band-Aids and Sunsets
Broadcast Date: November 01, 2026
On a recent autumn morning, I stood transfixed, and watched the first glorious rays of the sun break the horizon. Oh, it was beautiful! I felt a surge of joy. It was invigorating. Well that night, at 6:56 P.M. from a commanding overlook, I watched that same blazing sun sink below the horizon. It was a strange mix of feelings. As its last…
John Jay
Broadcast Date: November 01, 2026
“Power” – it is a seductive, addictive, and a dangerous thing. And it is for this reason that the framers of the American Constitution divided it, balanced it, and checked it in the different branches of the American government. They well knew that men were not angels and that a lust for power unchecked would convulse the entire nation.…
Boston Tea Party
Broadcast Date: November 01, 2026
It was a cold rainy December night in Boston, Massachusetts when a crowd of some 7000 people responded to the ringing bells in Old South Church. They came spilling out into the streets, and listened to Samuel Adams and others speak about British tea and taxes. At that very moment, three ships laden with East India tea lay anchored in…
The President
Broadcast Date: November 01, 2026
I would like to talk about the President of the United States.
On May 30, 1787, a small group of men in Philadelphia changed the world. They were the delegates to the Constitutional Convention. Among other things, they created an officer of government unlike any ever before, one destined to become the most powerful political figure in…

Submission
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
Like you, I have wondered sometimes why good people have to suffer – and oft times that more intensely and more frequently than the ungodly of this world.
Now, recently – I learned of one of the reasons why in something that began with Job.
Do you remember when Job said to his friends, “Hold your peace, let me alone, that I may speak, and let come on me what will…
Jens & Elsie
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
Thursday, October 23, 1856 - Rocky Ridges Wyoming: Jen’s Nielsen and his wife Elsie struggled against the elements to pull their handcart over the barren rough terrain. The snow was deep and still coming, and the wind howled around them. The temperature with wind chill may have been well below zero. They were cold and weak, having traveled a great distance on foot…
Change
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
I am convinced that almost anyone can change. The purpose of life is to change. The sacrifice of the Savior insured that. And to me no character in the scriptures exemplifies change more than the Apostle Peter.
Three times on the night of the Savior’s betrayal Peter denied Him, and that after publicly proclaiming that he would never forsake Him. The record says that…
The Warning
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
It is my conviction that we live in the presence of God and angels, and that we are never unnoticed.
Many years ago I was dispatched in an 18-wheeler to a booming oil town in Wyoming. It was late at night when I finally arrived and got unloaded. Now, strangely I felt something that night in that town, something I have only felt once before in my life. It was like a…
Jefferson
Broadcast Date: October 25, 2026
You know, it was once said that ‘a man who takes offense when offense was intended is a fool, and a man who takes offense when no offense was intended is an even bigger fool.’ Well, that’s a pretty high standard, but what would our homes and society be like if we could only reach it?
Nearly two hundred years ago as a man on foot approached the city of Washington D.C…
