A representative of the Set Free Church seems to want the Law Enforcement Center rules changed to suit himself and some family members of inmates of our local jail. Someone should remind him, our jail is not a WalMart, open 24/7 for a reason. Possibly the inmates could have used his ministering before they committed their crimes.

The program provides nurse coaches to assist patients as they transition from doctors, hospitals...
Recently, a Nevada Senator had an unusual moment of honesty and declared he knew he was lying when he said a former Presidential candidate had not paid any taxes in twenty years. When asked about lying he said, “We won.” I appreciate the U.S. Senator reminding us that there are many in politics that have no problem doing whatever they must do to get what they want and to win. Why is this important? Simply go to the Bible and read John 8:44. Pastor Chuck Cooper...
