Hey everybody, this is Heidi St. John. Welcome to my little corner of the internet. You have found me at off the bench with Heidi St. John today is Thursday, July 29th today. I'm going to answer your questions and we're going to continue to read some headlines. Stick around. I think you're going to be encouraged.

So thanks for tuning in today. You guys before I get started, want to remind you that I am in fact going to be at Calvary Chapel Tri-Cities this Saturday, 38 AM. And you guys can come on out and I hope I mean goodness we need to pray.

Right. Can you guys with me on this? We need to pray. Also want to remind you that we are doing a wonderful study at Mom Strong International right now called Beautiful Lies. The guest teacher this month is my friend and author and speaker Jennifer Strickland.

And we are just watching the Lord do some amazing work through that study there this month. So check it out. This is a great way for you to study. God's word to understand how to apply it to your life. And if there was ever a time that we needed to do that.

The time is right now. It really is. It's right now. I want to give a shout out really quickly to Cora Wickey from Pennsylvania. Cora is a supporter of this show. Thank you so much. Cora for that. We really appreciate it. Everyone who is supporting this ministry financially.

You guys are a blessing to us and I want you to know that we that we notice every single one of those. We are so thankful for you and for what God is doing. And so thank you for that. Thank you for just coming alongside us and for letting the Lord use you.

That way it really is an encouragement to us. A couple of things before I jump into your questions. You know yesterday I spent the whole day talking about the headlines and frankly.

I could do it again. Because the headlines just they just they just keep it right on. They keep right on coming.

But a couple of things that are you guys are going to start to see as the thing plays out. And I've been saying this for a long time and I think unfortunately my predictions about this almost Soviet style.

I really what we're dealing with now is a Marxist takeover and I keep hearing people talk about you know fascism you guys should really I'm going to do a whole podcast on it. And then I want you to look around and tell me what's happening in the culture right now.

But I read something off of PJ media link back to it in the show this day governor DeSantis has a replied to the CDC.

And he said and I quote we believe parents can make decisions about their child's health and safety which is why we think parents can make the decision about whether the kids should be wearing masks in school.

So on Monday. So just a few days ago DeSantis told attendees at a round table quote I think our fear is that seem some of those rumblings that there might be an attempt from the federal level or even some of these organizations to try and push mandatory masking of school children.

And so our view is that this should absolutely not be imposed it should not be mandated resident Biden sniped at a reporter who asked whether the federal government will require all employees to be vaccinated quote this is what this is what your president said.

Deep breath. That's under consideration right now. But if you're not vaccinated, you're not nearly as smart as I thought you were this is our president.

The president said that on Thursday he will lay out quote next steps to push more Americans to get vaccinated.

He said that by following the science and doing our part by getting vaccinated America can beat COVID in the meantime more vaccinations and mask wearing an area is most impacted by the Delta variant will enable us to avoid the kind of lockdown shutdown school closures and disruptions we faced in 2020.

Unlike 2020.

We have both scientific knowledge and the tools to prevent the spread of this disease we're not going back to that except for we will the science is not on their side and it's a shame.

And we got people leadership you guys the Bible is so was so right on about this right the Bible said that when wicked people are in power.

The people the people suffer and that's exactly what's happening right now that's exactly what's happening in Washington state you guys heard we just enacted a bunch of police reforms that look like black lives matter protesters wrote them.

And they're based on some of the biggest whoppers told about recent high profile involved deaths.
