On this Memorial Day I would like to honor family members who have fought for our country.
WWI
General John J. Pershing (General of the Armies)
Arthur A. Clifford (Tank Division)
Edgar O. Wold (Ambulance Division)
WWII
Donald W. Hinsverk (Army)
Norman K. Wold (Navy)
Korean Conflict
Jack W. Clifford (Navy)
They bravely served their country to preserve freedom and democracy. A museum is being built for General Pershing at his boyhood home in Missouri to honor him. The video give a good overview of his life.
A good book on the Generals life "Until the Last Trumpet Sounds: The Life of the General of the Armies John J. Pershing."
"Repeated blows of a hammer on the head of the same nail are necessary if it is to be driven in deeply, and one nail securely fixed is better than three of four loosely attached." A.W. Pink Hammer and Nail is about Books, biographies, history, theology, music and politics.

Tortured for Christ
I heard Richard Wurmbrand when I was in college and read Tortured for Christ. This video gives a glimps into his 14 imprisonment. It is a reminder to pray for those who are imprisioned for the sake of the gospel.
