Here at FGGAM we still beleive in journalism!!! Hard to find in America! News reporting in America has turned into a political view. I was trained in journalism back in 1978 at the old Brown Institute in Minneapolis. I was a weekend news reporter at the Minnesota State Network in 78. I know the old ethics! Check your sources three times! America news today runs on rumors! UGLY!
We are a messed up country for sure. I never thought I would see the ugly sluff we are seeing right now in America. A former President on trial! It saddens me to hear what is coming out of this trial. Very ugly stuff. Politics is the playground of Satan. My goodness! The riots on college campuses reminds me of the 60’s. The Jewish people being persecuted so very badly here in the land of the free! Shame. The majority of Americans do not have a Biblical Worldview, we are seeing a meltdown of Christianity in America right before our eyes. Things are really going to get more ugly here. 46% Of U.S. Adults Now Unchurched
NEW YORK (Reuters) – When Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s hush money trial began in a Manhattan courthouse on Monday, cable TV news coverage of the case was as divided as America itself.
A Reuters review of 2-1/2 hours of daytime coverage showed the distinctly partisan approaches of the Fox News Channel and MSNBC News to the trial taking place in the midst of an election campaign pitting the former president against Democratic President Joe Biden.
Fox News, which is the country’s most watched cable television network and leans Republican, gave significantly more air time to other national news including protests on U.S. college campuses against the war in Gaza.
Liberal-leaning network MSNBC, a home for anti-Trump voices, focused solely on the trial. More Here

Lets dive deep into a Biblical Worldview, which to me is this biggest crisis in the world at this time. Below is how Focus on the Family presents George Barna’s research that shows just 4% of Americans and only 37% of Pastors have a Biblical Worldview.
A Biblical worldview is based on the infallible Word of God. When you believe the Bible is entirely true, then you allow it to be the foundation of everything you say and do. That means, for instance, you take seriously the mandate in Romans 13 to honor the governing authorities by researching the candidates and issues, making voting a priority.
Do you have a biblical worldview? Answer the following questions, based on claims found in the Bible and which George Barna used in his survey:
- Do absolute moral truths exist?
- Is absolute truth defined by the Bible?
- Did Jesus Christ live a sinless life?
- Is God the all-powerful and all-knowing Creator of the universe, and does He still rule it today?
- Is salvation a gift from God that cannot be earned?
- Is Satan real?
- Does a Christian have a responsibility to share his or her faith in Christ with other people?
- Is the Bible accurate in all of its teachings?
This is from Barna
The research indicated that everyone has a worldview, but relatively few people have a biblical worldview – even among devoutly religious people. The survey discovered that only 9% of born again Christians have such a perspective on life. The numbers were even lower among other religious classifications: Protestants (7%), adults who attend mainline Protestant churches (2%) and Catholics (less than one-half of 1%). The denominations that produced the highest proportions of adults with a biblical worldview were non-denominational Protestant churches (13%), Pentecostal churches (10%) and Baptist churches (8%).
“If Jesus Christ came to this planet as a model of how we ought to live, then our goal should be to act like Jesus. Sadly, few people consistently demonstrate the love, obedience and priorities of Jesus. The primary reason that people do not act like Jesus is because they do not think like Jesus. Behavior stems from what we think – our attitudes, beliefs, values and opinions. Although most people own a Bible and know some of its content, our research found that most Americans have little idea how to integrate core biblical principles to form a unified and meaningful response to the challenges and opportunities of life. We’re often more concerned with survival amidst chaos than with experiencing truth and significance.” George Barna.
