“For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding; he stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints.” Proverbs 2:6-8
Recently a long-time friend and reader of my blogs came to see me. Among other things she was distressed that all drugs, including hard drugs, have now been made legal in her state. There were other things on her mind, and she lamented that she didn’t know who to trust to get the news – the truth, that is. After our conversation I decided to write this blog on RESOURCES that I trust. Obviously, you cannot “trust” me to know all the good resources, but if you are interested, I am sharing a few of those I believe tell me the truth about current events, religion, etc.

Novels
• Storm Clouds Coming - by Ginny Dye is the first in her historical fiction series called The Bregdan Chronicles. The series gives a balanced narrative of the Civil War and Reconstruction period. I have read the whole series (18 books!) and understand why she is a best-selling author. The stories she tells are not only spellbinding, but I learned so much about slavery, plantation life, medicine, the underground railway, women’s suffrage, and the bravery of those on both sides of the war. These books are historically accurate, clean, and encouraging, for now when racism is such a big issue.
TV What can I say?
• FOX News is good most of the time.
• OAN if you can get it.
Otherwise, I say TURN OFF THE TV and read some good books!
Thanks for having the courage to post a source list. The view of truth seems to be confused with a view of feelings. Those who were not taught government and our Constitution are more easily set adrift by emotional arguments. Have a great week Rosemary.
