Faith & Values: the Word in 120
In 1st Peter chapter 4 vss. 12 & 13 Peter says; “Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you: but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.”
Peter made reference to the return of Christ. As to when that day will occur we do not know? Christians may suffer before His return. It rains on the just and unjust.
There is joy in knowing the meaning of Philippians chapter 3 vs. 20 which says;
“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior,
the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body.”
In a recent Pew Research article in the USA Today newspaper dated September 2, 2024 it says that in the 1990’s, 9 of 10 American adults identified as Christian, by last year that number had dropped to 63%.
In John chapter 6 the disciples of Jesus did not like what Jesus said. Vs. 63 He says, “It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to
you are spirit and they are life. But there are some of you who do not believe.” Vs. 66 thru 68 says; From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with
Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve quote; “Do you also want to go away?” But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have
the words of eternal life.”

O’Brien & McNamara to serve on key House committees
STATEHOUSE – State Reps. Wendy McNamara (R-Evansville) and Tim O’Brien (R-Evansville) recently received appointments to serve on key House standing committees at the Statehouse.
House standing committee appointments are made by the Indiana House Speaker biennially after the November election and are in effect for the duration of members’ two-year terms. McNamara was reappointed as chair of the House Courts and Criminal Code Committee, and as a member of the House Roads and Transportation Committee.
“I’m proud to continue our work with the Courts and Criminal Code Committee,” McNamara said. “We’ve been successful in vetting bills and strengthening the state’s criminal justice system for the safety of Hoosiers. I look forward to continuing that momentum in the upcoming legislative session and leading the charge.”
O’Brien was appointed as chair of the K-12 Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee. He will also serve as a member of the House Government and Regulatory Reform Committee, and House Veterans Affairs and Public Safety Committee.
“K-12 education makes up a large portion of our budget every biennium,” O’Brien said. “As we head into a budget session, we will take a dive deep into school funding and explore the best ways to financially support each child’s education responsibly.”
House lawmakers are scheduled to convene at 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 8 for the first day of the 2025 legislative session. Hoosiers can visit iga.in.gov to find legislation, view calendars, and watch committee meetings and session.
