“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and Your dominion
endures throughout
all generations.
The Lord is faithful
in all His words
and kind

He that rules over men must be just, ruling in the fear of the Lord

The groom, a young widower and farmer, had recently landed in
John Rolfe, along with the governor, discipled Pocahontas, read to her from the Bible, and taught her to read and memorize scripture. She professed faith in Christ and was baptized, renouncing her former paganism – a demonic worship that included child sacrifice.
Their wedding, blessed by her father, brought peace between the settlers and Indians, called “the Peace of Pocahontas.”
Both bride and groom were used by God to establish a colony based on Christianity. Virginia Governor, John Smith, said that, “God made Pocahontas” and credited her with saving the settlement. “[S]he next, under God, was still the instrument to preserve this colony from death, famine and utter confusion.”

Dear Seppi Family---We are so sorry that we have taken so long in getting back to to thank you for the wonderful hospitality you showed us at this conference. Girls, your food was fabulous, and it might be said that the afternoon we spent with you was close to the high point of our whole conference time. Your family appears to us as a faithful outworking of our whole lifetime of Rushdoony teachings and those of many others in the field of Christian reconstruction and applying the teachings of Scripture concretely to our lives. Though I know we all share bumps in the road, you all exemplify the idea that obedience is the way of blessing.
Esther, I wanted to share with you how many times I have thought about what you said about your rising at 5 each morning and reading together with your husband. That really impressed me, how you said you could not have done what you have done without that. Trent and I have been much more faithful about our morning reading since we came back from the conference.
To all of you, your blog is fascinating. Thank you for showing us how to seek first the kingdom of God.
Love in Christ, Carol & Trent Wilson
