Summary
It seems like we have entered some sort of a weird dystopian time in the United States where what we used to believe about our country is in question. I watched on the news yesterday as Rudy Giuliani turned himself in the political prosecution of Donald Trump. Guliani is 79 years old—and he was indicted last week along with Trump and 17 other individuals. This is a political witch hunt. It tells us a lot about the state of our union... and yet in the midst of all this, God's word remains the same. Today we'll be looking at the headlines and how our words can bring hurt... or healing. SHOW NOTES: http://heidistjohn.com/blog/podcasts/political-witch-hunts-power-words

| 0:55.0 | Check around. |
| 0:56.0 | I think you're going to be encouraged. |
