GUEST COLUMN, Kim Baldwin, Kansas Farm Bureau

My father-in-law called me on a recent Friday night to let me know the first three lambs of the season had arrived. The triplets were born in the pasture and would need to be brought up to the barn and kept in the nursery pens to make sure all three lambs would be claimed by the mother and that they’d all get plenty of milk in their first few days.

When I got the call, my family was in the process of getting ready to make a trip to town to go out to dinner and then catch a movie together.

I don’t fault President Joe Biden for pardoning his son Hunter. That’s why parents aren’t allowed to negotiate with terrorists. Parents would give away the nuclear codes to help a child who is facing an execution. Others may die because parents give millions of dollars to save a child held by a terrorist, but a parent can’t see the consequences of their actions. They are singly focused on saving their own child.

Biden did the same thing for his child in a way. Facing certain jail time, Hunter Biden was not a hostage, but he was found guilty of several federal crimes.

THE POSTSCRIPT, Carrie Classon

It is an unusual living situation, in many ways.

My husband, Peter, and I spend almost half the year down in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. We had a terrible experience in another town (an absentee American owner with a filthy rental) and we came running back to San Miguel, desperate to find a place to stay — any place that was clean and halfway affordable. And that is how Jorge found us.

MY PERSPECTIVE, Gary Damron

Over the past few weeks, we've looked at the promised Anointed One, Jesus the Messiah, who's called Christ. From the time of humans' fall into sin in the Garden of Eden, God promised Eve that her seed [a descendant] would bruise the head of Satan (Genesis 3:15). In previous articles, we've discussed how Jesus was God's Prophet, Priest, and King, and the anointed Messiah is all of these, wrapped into one person.
