In an email Sean Feucht, a missionary, musician, activist, author, and speaker who travels the world sharing the Gospel wrote, “On Monday, the city of Spokane Washington will hold a vote to formally condemn me, calling me a "known anti-LGBTQ extremist." Why? At our Let Us Worship revival last month, there was no violence, no rioting, no destruction. It was a simple gathering of Believers peacefully praising and worshiping God. Who could have a problem with that?
“As I wrote earlier this year, "To stand on the Bible is dangerous in the year 2023, especially when that truth conflicts with the LGBTQ agenda." The Spokane City Council has a problem with public worship because the Gospel has the power to free people from bondage, including LGBTQ lifestyles.”...... READ MORE
A new Census report shows that poverty has climbed by 60% last year. It is the first time there has been an increase since the Obama administration. In 2022, 12.4%, one in eight, Americans were living in poverty, up from 7.8% in 2021.
The Census Bureau stated that these numbers represented the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) and not the official poverty measure. The official measure “defines poverty by comparing pretax money income to a poverty threshold that is adjusted by family composition.” The SPM “extends........READ MORE
An 11-year-old girl in Ohio is a victim of an adult predator who was threatened by police with a criminal charge for producing nude photos of herself. The father had called the police to see if there was anything they could do to help his daughter.
A female officer informs him that she could be charged with creating “child porn." The father informs her that his daughter is a child and a victim. “It doesn’t matter," the officer said. "She’s still creating it.”
The interaction was recorded on body camera audio and by the father's doorbell camera in Columbus, Ohio. The father released his doorbell footage of the exchange to social media where it has been watched more than 750,000 times. ........ READ MORE
Assembly Bill 2098 (AB 2098) has been repealed by California lawmakers. Liberty Counsel stated, “The state’s controversial “medical misinformation” law meant to silence and punish physicians and surgeons who communicate and treat their patients in a way that deviates from the “official government position” regarding COVID-19. AB 2098 aimed to empower the state’s medical board to revoke the medical licenses of any health care professional who spread what the state deemed as “misinformation” about the safety, efficacy, and development of the COVID -19 shots, as well as alternative treatments to the virus.”
Four lawsuits challenged the law as unconstitutional for violating doctors’ First Amendment rights, and a federal judge issued a temporary injunction in January 2023 blocking it from taking effect during ongoing litigation. ...... READ MORE
Physicians for Informed Consent States, 'For Normal-Risk Children, the Polio Vaccine is Not Proven Safer Than Polio Infection'
Physicians for Informed Consent (PIC) has introduced two new educational documents, "Polio: What Parents Need to Know" and "IPV Vaccine: Is It Safer Than Polio?" Packed with key statistical data on the risk of polio as well as the risk of the IPV (inactivated poliovirus) vaccine, the documents assist parents in making a more informed risk-benefit calculation for vaccination.
"Now more than ever, people have concerns about vaccines on the childhood vaccination schedule, and a question we hear all the time is 'What about polio?'" said Greg Glaser, general counsel and national coalition director for Physicians for Informed Consent. "These new documents scientifically address this question, so more parents can research the vaccine and decide what's best for their children."
The following is a summary of essential facts included in the documents.
Polio - Disease Information Statement (DIS):
Polio - Vaccine Risk Statement (VRS):
"As polio is so feared in our culture, the data we reveal is paradigm-shifting," said Dr. Shira Miller, founder and president of Physicians for Informed Consent. "Our educational documents show that for normal-risk children the polio vaccine is not proven safer than polio infection — which has serious implications for both children's health and vaccine mandates for school attendance."
To protect and enhance children's health, parents must have access to reliable infectious disease and vaccine educational information. PIC makes scientific data freely available through its education program, a growing collection of concise, reader-friendly educational materials that support parents, physicians, and policymakers in calculating the risk-benefit ratio of vaccination.

The BRICS summit, which took place in Johannesburg, South Africa, in late August, has moved the de-dollarization of the world economy back into the spotlight. Decreasing the prevalence of the U.S. dollar in trade and financial transactions among the Global South was repeatedly brought up by the world leaders in attendance. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva even called for a new common currency for the BRICS bloc.
At the summit, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt, Argentina, and UAE were allowed membership. The six new candidates will formally become members on Jan. 1, 2024. This could give global clout to the BRICS bloc which now includes China, the world's second-largest economy, as well as Brazil, Russia, India, and South Africa.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, who attended the summit remotely due to an international warrant for alleged war crimes, said "BRICS is not competing with anyone, but it's also obvious that this process of the emerging of a new world order still has fierce opponents."
Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi said on the Iranian television network Al Alam that the expansion "shows that the unilateral approach is on the way to decay".

This is the final segment of my series on why I believe the American Empire is declining and heading towards its end. Any good student of history and geography learned at an early age that to be a legitimate country, you needed two basic things. It must have both law and order and a secure border. Without both, a country cannot survive as a free country for long. It will fail and fall, and this is exactly what is happening in America today.
Law and Order:
Today, liberal prosecuting attorneys in many states have stopped prosecuting criminals. Cashless bail is now the rage. You can rob a store or attack and injure someone, be arrested, and be back on the streets in just a few hours. Many of these offenders are habitual criminals, who continue to commit crimes 30, 40, or more times yet spend little time, if any, in jail. Fox News reported about a woman in New York City who had been arrested over 90 times but kept getting released on the same day she was arrested.
People are fleeing large cities in blue (liberal) states because of crime. It is not safe to shop, walk down the street, or even live there. Businesses are closing left and right because of financial losses. ‘Smash and grab’ mobs are looting stores. Also, with the homeless camping out illegally on the sidewalks in front of the store, customers can’t get in the front door.
Biden voters should not be proud of themselves. In 2 1/2 years crime is up 31% and homelessness is up 11%. Police are ordered to ‘standby’ as protesters attack churches and cathedrals. They paint anti-Christian messages, knock the heads off of holy statues, or destroy them completely. Carjackings are also up nearly 35% and murders continue to rise.
Although they are not perfect, most Red (conservative) states try to uphold the laws. Things are so bad in Blue states, that entire police departments in some small towns are resigning in mass. The criminals are winning in many areas of America, and unless we soon get a firm handle on crime, we are doomed as a nation.
A Secure Border:
The previous administration had a ‘remain in Mexico’ policy. People trying to immigrate to the United States had to remain in Mexico until their cases were heard. Now, just about everyone who can safely cross the Rio Grande River is allowed to stay. In addition, there are tens of thousands of ‘getaways’ who sneak into this country by avoiding the Border Patrol agents.
Don’t you wonder why they sneak in and avoid Border Patrol? If they came in like the masses do, they would be taken to wherever in the United States they wanted to go. Also, each illegal immigrant receives money, a phone, shelter, healthcare, food, and an education. Why sneak in and give up all this? Possibly they might be criminals or are carrying fentanyl, which kills nearly 100,000 Americans each year. It has also been reported there is one cartel member in Mexico who specializes in getting ISIS members safely into America.
I recently listened to a 24-year Navy Special Forces veteran speak to a group of men and women on September 11 of this year. His office in the Pentagon was very near where the plane imploded. He lost 38 of his 42 staff members that fatal day. Luckily, he was called to his boss’s office in one of the inner rings of the Pentagon when the plane hit. They both survived as did two members who were out of the office that day. He later served several deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan.
I, like everyone else, listened attentively to this retired Chief Petty Officer as we were spellbound. This was the first time, since the attack happened, that he had been able to talk about it his experience. He concluded with “We were attacked in 2001 because we, as a nation, became very complacent and I believe we are a complacent country once again”.
I have stated many times that the terrorists coming across our southern border will soon launch a series of coordinated attacks throughout the United States. It will be far worse than September 11, 2001. Be prepared, and may God have mercy on us all.
Nahum 1: 7 The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust him.

Hello Youth Room! I hope you all are having a wonderful week and staying safe! I’m praying that you’re having a great school year as well! Which do you like better, school or summer? Personally, I’m a school fan but that’s because I like to stay busy. Though, every now and then I just can’t wait till summer and not having to worry about AP government homework. Anyway, Today I want to talk to you guys about anxiety as I know school can bring a lot of that. And I just want to remind everyone that you are not alone.
I write a lot about mental health but anxiety or anxiousness is more common than many people realize. It can be really hard to deal with because sometimes people don’t know what they are worried about or that the feeling is even anxiety. It can
just be a physical reaction and that can be frightening. But anxiety is not impossible to overcome. No matter how lonely or all-consuming it can feel. God conquers all. And if you’re on his side you have the best type of armor. Just think about it. The same God that can make mountains melt, is with you through everything.
The book of Psalms provides a lot of guidance when it comes to feeling anxious. What helps me is remembering a comforting verse and saying it in my mind until I am calm. Two verses I really like are Psalm 118:6-7, “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear.
What can man do to me? The LORD is on my side as my helper; I shall look in triumph on those who hate me.” This verse brings so much relief. What earthly situation are we unable to face when we have God to back us up? I am just so grateful to have such a wonderful, loving, and strong God.
I have a lot of experience with anxiety especially when I feel like what I'm doing doesn’t measure up. But I can smile knowing that God thinks I'm more precious than rubies and so are all of you. The only person we need to please is Him. Thank you so much for reading this edition of Youth Room. I am truly so appreciative of all of you readers. I’m so blessed to have this opportunity to write and express my experiences and my love for Christ. I’m praying for you guys! Jesus loves you! This is Lyla Belle signing out.
Join us for our Faith Walk, on my Heart today, Transition. Transition - the process or a period of changing from one state or condition to another. Change has different complexities involved, at just the thought of change, one can experience what seems like a merry-go-round of emotions. One minute excited, next nervous, happy, then worried about what will happen next. In order to grow naturally, we must go through transition. We are ever evolving from one state to another. From even the time of conception in the womb, seed, egg, then baby. Growing from a fetus to a full-term baby. Transition takes place, to get us from one stage of life to another. The same applies to all the other changes in our lives. School, career, single to married, married to families. Even in the environment seen in the transition of seasons. Seasons present each one with their own anticipations of what’s to come next. Even believers, we who believe in and have a relationship with God. You should also expect transitions, in our walk with God. Changing from first hearing about our creator to accepting the gift of salvation and him being our Lord and Savior, to now being the one sharing him with others. Even those transitions are a transition in and of itself. But we should be in another state than when we first began our Faith Walk with the Lord. Allow your Faith to grow, and evolve, when you do you will become a part of the circle of life in Christianity. Transitioning from just receiving the word to sharing the word that has given you, life with those who feel lifeless. Life in Christ is not easy, however, it's better with God than not having him at all. It's time for a transition! To go from hearing the word of God to being a dower of the word of God. “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” James 1:22
From My Heart 2 Yours,
