Signum Regis has released a new music video, “Ministry of Truth,” from their album “Undivided,” which came out this past November. The video features a professional cast and was shot on location in Argentina, an entire hemisphere away from the band’s home in Slovakia.

There’s a new episode of The Empowered Parent Podcast, and we’re discussing the new movie Sound of Hope: The Story of Possum Trot, which revolves around a small church in a small east Texas town that decided it was going to take the Biblical command to look after widows and orphans quite seriously.

Twenty-two families adopted 77 children out of the Texas foster care system, and not just any 77 children. They asked for “the ones no one else wants.” Listen as we discuss our thoughts on the film. 🎦

I’m somewhere between a third and halfway through Rob Kroese’s A Grift Too Far, and if this thing wasn’t already off the rails in the first 20 pages, it most certainly is now. 📚🤣

I’m sorry, we are nearly a quarter of the way through the 21st century, and if your automated mailing system can’t handle that my full first name has 11 characters and it chops off the last one, I’m not taking anything you send seriously.

And yes, I absolutely turned a Jack Carr book signing in to my own personal Jack Stewart book signing. Had to get his autograph on my copy of Outlaw, his awesome Clancy-esque thriller. 📚

And what a trooper, coming straight from the office to hang out!

Great seeing Jack Carr at Half Price Books again. I’m thinking Jack is going to need a bigger venue in Dallas in the future. Happy pub day, Jack!

Clearly the people complaining social media is toxic and awful are not following the right people online. Because I am crying from laughter from my Instagram feed today.

People are hilarious.
