And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

MLK Jr.'s Niece, Dr. Alveda King, just EVISCERATED the Democrat scheme to prop up fake race hoaxes through the SPLC's funding of hate groups!

"I am troubled by the conduct and messaging of organizations that claim to fight hatred while profiteering from division...serious questions about the Southern Poverty Law Center."

"We do not need more lists that place citizens under suspicion because they hold sincere beliefs about faith, family life, or public policy."

"Let me be clear: I reject racism. I reject hatred. I reject white supremacy...But I also reject the notion that Americans who hold traditional Christian beliefs should be treated as threats or terrorists, simply because we disagree with a prevailing political thought."

"We must speak out for truth and against the forces that would manufacture hate, fear, division, and violence simply to line their pockets and further their political ambitions. God bless America."

To you, it's just a Cracker Barrel parking lot. To me, it's where I gave my life to Jesus Christ.

I was 21 years old. I was working at the Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee after some of the worst years of my life. I'd made mistakes. Real ones.

I grew up in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, raised by a mom who worked hard and didn't accept excuses. But I made decisions that should have ended my story before it ever really started. By the grace of God, they didn't. But every day, I was carrying them.

One afternoon, a church group came into the restaurant, just back from a revival. I served them their meals like I served any other table. But something happened while I was serving them. I can't fully explain it to you. The Lord spoke to me. He said, “Stop running from Me.”

It knocked me back.

I went to find the table, and they were all gone. I could see through their windows that they were getting on their bus, and I knew deep down that if I let them drive away, I was going to keep running. So I went outside. The last woman, just as she was stepping onto the bus, turned to me and asked, “Are you okay?”

I told her, “No ma’am, I’m not okay.” I told her the Lord was telling me to stop running.

That whole bus emptied out, stood with me in the parking lot of a Cracker Barrel in Tallahassee, Florida, and prayed over me right there.

I gave my life to Christ that day. Right there.

I still get emotional about it. Because I know what I was before that moment, and I know what He's done since. He gave me a wife who shares my faith. He gave me three sons. He gave me a career, a community, a calling I never would have dared to ask for. He took a kid from Crown Heights who’d run out of chances and gave him a life that doesn't make sense apart from grace.

People ask me sometimes why I talk about it. Why I bring up the parking lot. Why I don't just keep that part private and let folks see the polished version.

I'll tell you why.

Because there's a young man out there right now — maybe in Tallahassee, maybe in Tampa, maybe in Miami, maybe in a small town in the Panhandle — who thinks his story is already over. Who thinks the mistakes he's made disqualify him from the life he could have had. Who thinks God doesn't want anything to do with somebody like him.

I'm here to tell him: that's a lie.

In life, you're not who you are at the lowest point. You're who you choose to become after.

The Lord met me in a Cracker Barrel parking lot. He'll meet you wherever you are.

You just have to stop running.

🚨 EVER HEARD OF THE “BLACKSTONE MEMORIAL”?
Most people have not.

In 1891, decades before the Balfour Declaration, decades before the Holocaust, and more than half a century before the founding of modern Israel, hundreds of prominent Americans signed a petition calling for the Jewish people to be restored to their ancestral homeland.

It was called the Blackstone Memorial.

The petition was written by William Eugene Blackstone and presented to U.S. President Benjamin Harrison and Secretary of State James G. Blaine.

Its central argument was simple:

Millions of Jews were facing persecution in Russia. Europe did not want them. America could not absorb them all quickly. So the question was asked:

Why not restore the Jewish people to their ancient homeland?

The memorial pointed out that the international powers had already helped restore other peoples to their historic lands. Bulgaria to the Bulgarians. Serbia to the Serbians. Greece to the Greeks.

So why not Palestine to the Jews?

The petition argued that the Jewish people had been expelled from their land by force, had never stopped longing to return, and that restoring Jewish autonomy there would be both just and humanitarian.

And this was not some fringe document.

It was signed by leading American politicians, newspaper editors, clergy, rabbis, judges, bankers, businessmen, and public figures.

Among the names were future President William McKinley, J.P. Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, Chief Justice Melville Fuller, and hundreds of others.

Think about that.

In 1891, major American voices were already publicly saying that the Jewish people had a legitimate historic claim to their homeland.

This was not invented in 1948.

It was not created by the Holocaust.

It was not some colonial project suddenly dropped into the Middle East.

The idea that the Jewish people belonged in their ancestral homeland was recognized by major American figures generations before the State of Israel was reborn.

The Blackstone Memorial is a reminder that Jewish restoration was not a modern propaganda slogan.

It was an old moral, historical, and political argument.

And America knew it long before the world pretended to forget.

So, dear Pope, quick question:

You’ve got these guys in Iran who say they’re doing God’s work… by hanging protesters at sunrise and beating women into forced confessions. Apparently, that’s what “holy” looks like now.

And I’m just wondering, when people get executed for asking for freedom, does that qualify as a “massacre,” or are we still workshopping the language?

Because from the outside, it looks like religion being used as a cover for straight-up brutality. And when the people who actually claim to speak for God stay quiet… it kinda sounds like God’s on mute.

So, are you going to say something about it, or is this one of those moments where silence is the safest prayer?
