I do not expect the truth from either FOX NEWS or any of the liberal news networks. There are those times in which FOX will present facts that are subject to the hearers interpretation however even this network dedicates quite a bit of time presenting a particular viewpoint, moderate or conservative. What I do not want, and therefore do not watch such networks as CNN or MSNBC, is hyperbole, innuendos and straight out lies.
In the past few years I have discovered the world of YouTube personalities. There are individuals who are very passionate about what they do and what they believe and are willing to share their knowledge and opinions with others, myself included (NETTIE F R).
Today I was watching a video by JERICHO GREEN, the first video I ever watched of his was filled with truths BUT his language took me aback. After watching another video of his I “liked, subscribed, hit the notification button and shared”. Many of my Facebook friends will find his frequent uses of the “f” word offensive but for those who listen they will be impressed with his knowledge.
Even though I know quite a few Christians who drink alcoholic beverages and smoke cigarettes, a few cigar smokers, many do it in the privacy of their own home. I listen to LEEMACK912 a cigar reviewer who also shares his wisdom on the things of this world. Leander McClain is a Christian, he does not wear his faith in a nice little bow on top of his head but as I have noticed, through his conversations, over the months I have been listening to him, he lives his faith. I appreciate his conversations on cigars, eagerly listen to what he is pairing with it AND appreciate the wisdom he presents as he smokes, drinks and “conversates”.
Had I not been researching gardening I would have never come across the other 130 plus channels I subscribe to; no, I do not watch all of them all the time! It is such homesteaders as Doug and Stacy a couple that is 100% off grid in their life style: OFF GRID WITH DOUG AND STACY and have demonstrated that you can live a simple yet comfortable life without all the bells and whistles. AND THEY MAKE MONEY!
Perhaps it is my personality, I do not like traditional anything. I like obtaining the facts and coming to my own conclusions thus of the few Bible based channels I probably check out THE BIBLE PROJECT more than any other channel. The Bible Project gives a quick usually 5 minutes or less, over view of all things Bible including each book within and various doctrine related topics such as “Heaven and Earth”.
It is quite natural for me to view programs like THE FIVE, HANNITY and even FOX & FRIENDS via YouTube. (Did I mention- I don’t have cable television). I can also watch all things White House related, Congress related and state related on YouTube; today many networks now use Facebook live.
Recently I have discovered PATRICIA DIXON, when she speaks she 1) encourages the listener to do their own research 2) presents information with a common sense approach and 3) does not insult the intelligence of the hearer. Her conversations are what I and others need to have and I enjoy listening.
There are two other channels I watch that are more lenghthy but very informative. TOWNSENDS a historical channel that shares the life and times of individuals who lived during the 18th century. And JESSE LEE PETERSON, a man of faith who has a desire to-restore families by rebuilding the man.
When I listen to these channels I am better able to develop a better perspective of what is actually happening. As Solomon said: There is nothing new under the sun (Ecclesiastes 1:9), therefor, when I hear about what is happening today and study Scripture. I see the motivating force behind the lies spewed by liberal media and self-centered politicians. Though the terms some of the people I listen to are not government or religiously censored I really don’t care- truth is truth.
