12/03/2023 – 2023 highlights: If you could get all your Christian loved ones to check out one amazing Christian warrior tool, what would it be?
Well, for this blog, I am going to list twelve such tools. Please, if you have twelve, be it one or twelve, please share with us here on comments, or in your own post. I am entering these in reverse chronological order. I will reference the date – mm/dd/2023; a short summary; and an estimate of duration. To, learn more for any particular tool, I would recommend using the search tool with just the date: mm/dd/2023, so you can check it out. Even for read only, you need a logon to be able to use the filter and the search tools. Send me an email at semikkah7@protonmail.com to get a user logon.
So, if you are new or missed these over the years, here are the twelve:
11/26/2023 – “Watch: young Israel female tank commanders save two communities during the Hamas attack on October 7th!…” One word: Inspiring! – Around 15 minutes – news clip
09/22/2023 – “Look and be amazed” // A 2008 archived Alistair Begg sermon from the “obscure” book of Habbukkuk: Why? – 30 minutes.

07/15/2023 – “Sound of Freedom” movie follow up – PragerU presents “Light in the Darkness” – The remarkable journey of Tim Ballard’s fight against human trafficking in his own words. FYI – Eight episodes – PragerU.com @ around an avg. say of 13 minutes an episode. This is Tim Ballard’s fight against human trafficking in his own words.
07/15/2023 – Recommendation: “Eight Days of Hope” / eightdaysofhope.com / EIN reference # 75-3212540 / To date, they have partnered with 13 organizations in 8 states to build 6 counseling care centers and 7 safe homes for serving survivors of human trafficking.// Give today – “bring our daughters one step closer to restoration” / FYI: I include the tools we use to evaluate charities we review at least annually for both initial and ongoing support.
06/17/2023 – “Thank you Hillsdale College! / “C.S. Lewis on How to Enjoy Prayer” // “…In his mature thought, Lewis understood prayer less as man speaking to God and more as God speaking to and for man, and man learning to participate in the divine cycle of God creating, sustaining, and redeeming the world.” A one page testimonial and review from C.S. Lewis’ course: “C.S. Lewis on Christianity” – Lesson Five: “Prayer”. Lesson Five runs less than one hour – lecture and quiz.
05/02/2023 – “A new book review fellowship!: “The Source” by James Michener // Join us! We have a blog for each chapter of this amazing 1000+ page historical novel by Michener.” We were blessed beyond the effort and time to read and discuss the entire book.
03/07/2023 -“The transformative power of classical music” by Benjamin Zander. // The Argument for an unfathomably all sovereign and all loving God, called The Argument from Aesthetic Experience: “1). There is the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. 2.) Therefore there must be a God. You either see this one or you don’t.” (From memory – one hour YouTube presentation)
01/18/2023 – “The Geometry of God and Your Salvation” – 10 minutes – an amazing illustration of God’s Truth, His relationship to us!
12/06/2020 – “Sheep Among Wolves – Volume 2” – a 1:53 minute YouTube production of FAI – Frontier Alliance International. It is a few years dated, but it covers the “Disciple to Convert” witnessing model of the underground Christian church of Israel, one of the fastest if not the fastest growing church in the world! So, I’m cheating here, as I originally posted this three years ago, with a repeat post or two into 2023. So “last but definitely not the least”. So if I am picking just one, I choose this one as my personal choice. I found it off the charts , both for “inspiring” and “convicting”, a desired condition for it compels action.
Sharing with brothers and sisters, this is how we fulfill our mission as His impregnable remnant church, through prayer and by His grace. It is God driven synergy, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, particularly if those parts are isolated in a hostile and evil world. And the whole is one, one body in Christ!
Soli Deo Gloria!
Your brother in Christ,
Jimmy
