Well folks, there are gosh that there are just people.

I could probably spend the rest of the program talking about what this gentleman has done and and his accomplishments. You can most find him on Fox news. She you he is a regular with Laura Ingram but you can mostly find them at the eternal Word television network where he is the news director and lead anchor of EWTN news and he is also the creator and host of the news program of the world over, live author of the will wire wilder series for young readers as well is my sincere pleasure to welcome Raymond Arroyo to the program. Raymond will call light it it's it's my pleasure. Well, what we've we've got to unite and stand together.

My brother, because our our belief system. Our Christian belief system, which I believe is what has made America great is under gigantic attack.

After I only say that I spend a lot of my time and I'm not going television and the reason I write for children and time writing literature because the founders of the country belief that there were two foundations undergirded experiment that they consider an experiment in liberty and merriment self-government. They didn't know it would work or not because it was predicated on two things that they had no control and that it and informed people and moral people and to be informed To be literate To be able to read your mind and your own ideas critically think and to be moral person. You also have to repeat the word of God and to and to be open to the possibility that there is a moral code outside of your belt.

Whatever you think is right in the moment that there is an objective truth. Those who think that things to me. We have lost in America were watching it get pulled away and you lose in an armed populace moral people, you lose America and I think we focus a lot on the political right political personalities in court that the not that it nearly as important as those two foundational principles because you're only going to get representative and congresspeople and presidents that reflect the. The information, but knowledge of the people in the morality of the people and family with rainbow self and acquire in the dark. You know I regularly tell my audience is if you don't like. If you think when I say the word politician.

If you think you know liar and thief and someone steals and someone you can trust and so if that's what you think then you better go into the bathroom and look in the mirror and ask yourself is that me because our nation was created as a representative government. We are governed by the content of the people we keep giving power to the guys in DC we've given them in and we know what is the saying right that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely correct that we will yeah we we we have we have given that up and Raymond so I guess the question then is how do we get it back because I think a lot of you, I mean Virginia right told us right you know mama bears woke up and said hey wait a minute, you're messing with my kids something you had on right as we begin this conversation to put a ball around that entire we went to Loudoun County for 11 years – are okay. Were there. Our children were not public when they were married very small on talking to kindergarten and my my wife with the Peter started volunteering at weight. A lot of the school and we did pull them out of the loud good for you because the curriculum Janet time those schools were regarded in the nation, scaring the very best in the nation, and now you see they are ground zero backlash revolt against teachers unions and these teachers trying to cram a curriculum that does not reflect anything in the natural order. Forget what (phonetically striking that and that runs right back to where I always people will follow ideology in the narrative only so long even if it means their own financial detriment and pain felt unwanted child.

Yes, as you given your witness and background checks your child, all bets are off and you only one thought protect my baby that's what happened here. you are the team did come to this.

you know they lead, they let their agreement to get destroyed by all go to the roof and now curriculum is what triggered the church fell asleep look, i mean, for the first hundred and 50 years. it was the church. if an editor came into town and and printed lies.

it was the pastor that went to that editor and solicit i'm calling you out, and sunday sermon is going to be all about you, buddy. so if you don't want sunday's sermon to be about you.

you will retract your lies you attract your lies. they would sit down and have lunch and at lunch. dad would stand up and have to recite what the pastor had talked about in the sermon and then have a discussion about it so that they understood the moral soundings that that you are speaking up. i was in love and co. actually about a month ago, jonathan e. ward's house old jonathan have hosted an event about crt and we had members from loudoun county from the school board, parents, and so on and so forth that were there and i heard you know their stories firsthand my friend and i all my goodness say it it that you didn't surprise me this up, realizing that that led to glenn yunker, nana and a wimp and a winsome sears 20 as governor and lieut. gov. and and and and the other, the atty. gen., the just one there as well a month my harris i think is the name yeah yeah yeah the american again this is the idea that the racially driven, which is what i hear that the fact that you see an african-american lieutenant governor and a panic.

atty. gen. kind of underline the fact that it will be racially motivated. all you had a bigger panic and african-american birth" yunker then went though that all black holes narrative, but sick happens when people just start listening to themselves and they kind of repeat the echo and and so many in the media apparatus. what happened last night. look, they were all shocked by the virginia story workshop downtown holes with parent, the parent will collect your bill when you monitor actual movement and reaction from the people in your work on the results, not when you ignore that bunch of cretins you know well, my god.

now you will set you pulling the bear poked that there is what you did right. i mean they put the barefield charlie kurt had an article on human events that that talked about in fragile and and it was a, you know, basically saying listen, you know we've got an end and it's it say it's a grassroots movement but it's not like tea party and now i know you have nothing against department involve the tea party movement. this is different. this is more organic because you have a parent group is gathering talking about crt you have another peer group is gathering talking about the transgender issue and forcing boys may look at what happened to that father you got a father whose daughter is rate the school district refuses to even acknowledge that it took place, and he's the guy that they're going to tackle and take down in the meeting, i mean as a dad as you like. i shared with you you i laid my wife down for my daughter literally died four times late my wife down for my daughter. don't mess with my kids. okay, but there's a reason my gate posts are painted purple out there folks, okay, that's your warning here in texas don't come on my property and mess with my family this big bear. you don't want to tangle with me happening and i will the critical rate.

part of the only the latest manifestation of a very distorted idea of human doesn't comport with anything found in christian morality or christian notions of personhood and and and and and will work people up and talk for generations school has consistently undermined that makes curriculum particular the modern about whether environmentalism replacing god. you know the interchangeable pronouns that have no and i'm happy latin.

so when i hear what latin neck. nobody makes a lick. the likeness your latino or your latina feminine ending or lower matt masculinity.all spanish permit will the rest of the kind faculty lounge, make-believe and even my friend james carville who i agree with almost nothing on but you know we are both new orleans boy things that you know.

You can become and write a rule on the in the middle number in Houston on ballot Raymond arroyo.calm which at my website and then the date there I met Barnes & Noble, but the story talk a little bit I'll find book on the book tour for a picture book I wrote called the spider Christmas and it I consider it a family read all the books are write our family do that because to me it's really important that generations read and and go on these imaginative journey together because the media isolate people watch their one program in their room or in the car watching alone and not sharing it together and I wanted an experience that person will focus just on the ministry and the wonder of Christmas, but we'll Christmas not Santa or talk to your the reindeer only with your sweet lovely but not what you think about and I want people that you and I tumbled across 100 scale, kind of an enchanting thing that I've never heard before.

When I traveled in Eastern Europe.

The trees in Eastern Europe could decorate them with more tensile than our hotel info talked about and they Spider ornament in the tree, and I thought what I did all these trees and ornate kind of you know Jules spider ornament and I did there… Recycling Halloween alert kept going on about years later I stumbled across Mary Jo Jesus when they're on the flight to each. They hide in a cave and date have with writer and she performs a service to them the gift that only she can and it ends up being the most late to get just the right time and I thought why I'm never boring. It turns out that the legend story that fired the Eastern Europeans to create tensile not to replicate but it is supposed to be a representation of the spider's web answer ran the legend alive story like we all do unknowingly when looking to put it on their tree sure interesting tradition, we continue, but we've never either passed the story long story. I certainly didn't know never know. It goes back to the second century, anything very sweet tail and a part of the gospel that quiet, you know, we hear Joseph was told get up, take the child and mother go to Egypt right safety belt right now and then they go. Next thing we know, he told okay go back home. We don't know what happened between the dark spot in the dock got that little white thing you see them go into the cave naturally in the very beginning picture book up in italic rate appetite killed by her big spider mold and work spider if you saw spider hanging over your child in the pipe like clinic wrestling you bet no PCs that there's a stack of little spiders of the corn mother start to close by the regional mall are here for a reason. P and neat reflection therebetween. Mary trying to protect her baby and the spider trying to protect her and they kill each other. That really heartwarming touch a lot of people that I didn't expect frankly to be touched, even many many non-Christian people touched by what it brings us back to the centrality. What this is all about what Christmas is about and that and I did know when I started writing the story Of but who knew that we would really be like Mary and Joseph and Jesus my time in our own cave hiding out trying to protect our family… Which is what they're going running from Eric's guard yeah and if you have not. I think and if you have the local God will provide miracles in unexpected ways. Unexpected vehicle and that's what happened and it's really about using your gift and offering them to Christ when they are most needed and no matter how small or insignificant. You might think they are or how people ignore or even up here to view that get needed now and never more than ever, and it may have importance not only for you all command well and I think about you know the proverb right trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path right here. This is about, you know, leaning on understanding that that naturally Joseph or Mary might not have had an and this is about trusting God completely fully on the journey that they are on you know and and acknowledging that he is in the midst of this encounter because God gives us a line encounters you and I today. I mean, think about this, Psalm 139 says that he wrote out the days of our lives before we drew our first breath that is that every experience that you and I have had was so that we could come together today and have this unique encounter will know if it's so true, so true, I've always been the night I get like to think about that. I look at my favorite time of year you and I live in New Orleans where plate analyzes everything is in every direction you know where it would we live large here and you know that Melton now if you'll go along with every kind of the season at particularly religious religious celebrations. The best Christmas I love but the two things I love about it is that we often overlook it. Which is why wanted to emit story we often think of Christmas in America and retailers tell us it's all about Berkeley like sunshine and piano: all the external thing right.

The holy family Christmas for Christ will God made man coming into very dark world and running and literally running light from danger, but the light did not fail in the supernatural power of God that the light power and I don't think we spend thinking about that light, conquering darkness got our conquering evil sampling out of people we rarely think of John chapter 3, my brother is the rest hi John chapter 3 everybody stops it for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him but but the rest of it talks about light came into the world of madman preferred darkness over the light I and that is the world that Christ encounter when he's explaining to Nicodemus the significance of the born again experience. I must happen if I tell you the love of things in the natural you don't understand them, how are you ever going to understand the things in the realm of the spirit and in LA there was so much of that in the first century church that they understood.

You know when you think about Christ walking on the water and coming in and he's coming out to the boat and the first thing that they say is you know they are afraid because they think it might be an evil spirit that so clueless in that should clueless in the first century Christians understood that there was a realm that was not operating in the natural but was as real as the natural and we have lost track of that and it's to our detriment. In my Raymond go ahead and amen, amen. Please go to the website Raymond Arroyo.com Raymond Arroyo.com and make and plead with him to think about maybe making a stop here at the cowboy capital world. I think we would love to have him at the end of the day, when I stand before my God, I do not want him to ask me what did you do with the world that I sent my son to die for and redeem how did you fight the good fight, share the good news. Give people a check. How did you shine your light to be a beacon of truth in the darkness did you shrink back in fear when they demand you change my message. Did you call evil good and good evil, did you forsake my love for that of another line with the adulterer and setting up a new idol in your life have you to file yourself through compromise and tolerance of that which I call an abomination. Have you innocent blood on your hands for the children murdered on your watch of the young ones pervert in their way by evil men seeking their own comfort in reviling me know. At the end of the day. I want him to simply say the evidence is in. Well done, thou good and faithful servant.

I love my God and I love his creation, and I will go to my grave telling the world that evil is evil and only God is good and Jesus came to save the world, that no matter the evil in the world. I will never give up. And in spite of the hate I will love. In truth, God bless you all and may love remove the veil so you all might enter into his rest
