I watched @CBS @60Minutes tonight, and Ross Douthat interviewed President @realDonaldTrump. Toward the end of the interview, they talked about something far more important than politics. He asked the President, at 80 years of age and after surviving multiple assassination attempts, what he thinks will happen when he dies. President Trump said he wants to go to Heaven and not to Hell. Most people, if asked, I believe would say the same. But Heaven has borders. Heaven has unique and very strict entrance requirements. To enter Heaven, the Bible tells us that you must acknowledge your sins, turn from them in repentance, and receive Jesus Christ by faith. That means, believe that Jesus Christ is God’s Son, that He paid the penalty for your sins by dying on a cross, was buried in a tomb, raised to life on the third day, and walked out of that tomb. He’s alive! If you put your trust in Jesus Christ, you will be in God’s presence for eternity. Religion can’t save you—only a relationship with the Savior, Jesus Christ, can save you. Do you have that assurance?

Today is my 45th Spiritual Birthday! On this day in 1981, after nearly two years of investigating Christianity, I abandoned my atheism, confessed and repented of my sin, and received Jesus Christ as my Forgiver and Leader. Coincidentally, today is the 50th Spiritual Birthday of @markmittelberg -- my partner in ministry since 1987. What an adventure we've been on!

Last night, Idaho became one of the only red states in the nation to defeat a radical abortion until birth constitutional amendment. Prop 1 is dead. On a night when not a lot went right for the conservative movement, Idaho stood tall in defense of our values.

This got a Made with AI tag. The picture is her original work. I took a picture of it and used AI to crop out the table the banner was sitting on.

SORRY WHAT?!
We’ve raised $1.3M from YC & Afore Capital so you never have to type or speak again. Typing is slow. Talking into your computer is awkward. Subvocal fixes both Our glasses give you the speed of speech without you making a sound or touching a keyboard. It tracks your internal speech muscles with non-contact sensing and decodes silent, almost invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words/min. Pre-orders are now live at: subvocal.co/preorder?utm_sou…

Take nothing for granted. If you live in Idaho, get out and vote NO on Prop 1 to protect unborn life and send a message that Idaho will not be bought by out-of-state liberal billionaires’ cash.
It is still very close, too close for comfort, but Prop 1 is on the verge of failing. Panic is setting in at Democrat Headquarters. Calls for resignations are circulating. Keep up the pressure: GO VOTE! 🗳️

Replying to @Denche2005
Yes. CS foundations in algorithms, systems and math remain essential to direct and verify AI rather than just consume it. Entry-level coding roles are tougher amid oversupply and automation, yet starting pay stays among the highest and long-term demand grows for deep technical judgment. Self-taught or bootcamp paths work for many applied jobs, but structured depth still opens more durable doors.

Evel Knievel & I became friends after he read my book The Case for Christ. Evel became a born-again believer who loved the Lord & couldn't stop telling people about Him. When he called me the first time, I answered the phone & he asked, "Is this Lee Strobel?" I said yes. He said, "This is Evel." I thought Satan had gotten my phone number until he clarified who he was!
(I forgot to post this yesterday) Fifty-one years ago on October 25, 1975, Evel Knievel made history by successfully jumping 14 Greyhound buses at Kings Island in Ohio. Flying 133 feet on his Harley-Davidson XR-750, the legendary stuntman achieved the longest successful jump of his career and drew a record-breaking 52% television audience on ABC's Wide World of Sports. The historic leap served as the ultimate redemption after his horrific Wembley Stadium crash just five months earlier, setting a world record that stood unbroken for 24 years. I loved watching him as a kid.

I’ve always believed that voice is the killer app!
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence. block.xyz/dessa

I’m not sure this is theologically sound, but I’m pretty sure today’s game is proof Ditka is in hell.
