Summary

Happy Warriors are not tennis balls floating down the gutter of life, no, we tackle each of life’s jobs with joy and happiness and with passion and optimism. Election 2020! Voting for president is one of those jobs this year. This show is always about the things you really care about, like Family, Finances, Fitness & health, Faith, and Friendships; and today, we explore the Permanent Principles that shape our national politics. Hear the story of my background, the SoCal congregation I planted, my marriage, and the American Alliance of Jews and Christians. -(www.AAJC.org)- Learn why 75% of American Jews will vote for Biden and what that means. Why do many female concert pianists dress provocatively while male musicians dress sedately. How many Jews are there really in the United States? And how many Muslims? I recall my first-ever speech to a Christian audience in 1995. How do they count Jews? Only 40% of American Jews have visited Israel. Which American Jews have abandoned the faith of Abraham and adopted, as a belief system, the dogmas of the Democratic Party? How many Bible-believing Jews are there in the United States? There is a book I want you to look at: "America’s Real War", because it lays out the Permanent Principles of political change as it is occurring today. Why is America a Christian nation? And how can denying the truths of your nation’s founding harm you? Find "America’s Real War" at https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/americas-real-war-paperback/ Learn more about your ad choices.

0:26.3	somebody who recognizes that the challenges of life,
0:32.4	whether it's taking care of a family or building a family,
0:36.5	or whether it's taken care of a job or building a family, or whether it's taken care of a job or building a business,
0:41.7	or whether it is maintaining family connections and social connections. All of these things are
0:49.4	tasks. They are unrelenting tasks. And these are the tasks that a happy warrior
0:58.3	undertakes every single day of our lives with joy and with enthusiasm.
1:07.2	We undertake these jobs with optimism and confidence and passion because we realize that the only
1:15.1	alternative, the only time when relaxation is really available and that all we have to do is just
1:24.3	hang out, well actually that's in the grave. But until then, we find
1:30.2	happiness and fulfillment in dealing with everything that has to be done, weeding the garden
1:38.5	in every way that that can mean, pulling the weeds out of the garden so the flowers and the vegetables can grow.
1:46.1	All of that, unrelenting job, that's the sort of world we live in.
1:51.9	We have to be doing these things.
