Pursuing success in 2024

Monday, January 1, 2024, 11:35 am | Randy Thomasson

Now that the New Year is here, I want to remind you of an important fact of life: People who see themselves as difference-makers indeed succeed.

As Christian motivational speaker Zig Ziglar said, “I believe success is achieved by ordinary people with extraordinary determination.”

I agree with this, as long as both the means and the end are God-approved. Because ultimately, the only successes that last are those that receive the applause of heaven.

Yet it’s also true that persistence and endurance are Bible-based qualities, as are the values of faith, hope, and love for Creator God and people.

I hope these admirable merits describe you as a follower of SaveCalifornia.com. I know they reflect my desires as the leader of our Christian-values organization since our founding in 1999.

Truth-tellers and difference-makers have an incredible opportunity in California right now. Because the pain and fear caused by the New Communist Democrats are definitely being felt. From inflation to crime to illegal aliens to transients to crazies targeting kids, reasonable Californians want solutions to big problems!

You and SaveCalifornia.com are part of the answer. As we educate the public on the cause and effect of problems, and point the way toward solutions, more people will follow, learn, and change. From the Bible, from history, and from real life, I know this to be true.

Thank you for following or even financially supporting SaveCalifornia.com’s work for you in 2023. For 2024, I wish you a Courageous and Faith-Filled New Year!

What’s the real meaning of Thanksgiving?

When you stop and think about it, the real meaning of Thanksgiving is more than the 4 F’s — family, food, fun, and football.

Because when you turn the word around, Thanksgiving means giving thanks. And you thank a person, right? Because you don’t thank the air, or so-called fate, or the All-Nothingness.

Don’t know why to thank Creator God? Start by sincerely thanking Him for the air you’re breathing, and for all the food and water He’s created. Thank Him that you’re alive, and that every day is an opportunity to love God and people.

Ask this question at your table: “What do you thank God for?” Not why are you generally thankful, but WHOM do you thank and what specifically do you thank Him for? Because giving thanks to God is what Thanksgiving is all about.

thanksgiving: A public celebration of divine goodness; also, a day set apart for religious services, specially to acknowledge the goodness of God, either in any remarkable deliverance from calamities or danger, or in the ordinary dispensation of his bounties. The practice of appointing an annual thanksgiving originated in New England.
Noah Webster in his 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language

…because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
The Bible, Romans 1:21

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.
Jesus Christ, Savior of the world and God in the flesh, in the Bible, John 4:23

Democrats & RINOs for marriage anarchy

Wednesday, June 28, 2023, 10:46 am | Randy Thomasson

JULY 5 UPDATE: See our Senate floor alert with ACA 5’s shocking facts and phone numbers to call. Please participate!

California’s Democrat Party legislators are for the “LGBTQIA+” agenda and RINOs (Republicans In Name Only) are quickly joining them.

And the latest sexual anarchy measure, ACA 5, which would legalize polygamy and “child marriages,” and could usher in other shocking consequences, is showing you who is attacking the Natural Family.

On June 27, Republican state senators Scott Wilk of Santa Clarita (pictured) and Roger Niello of east Sacramento County both voted yes (along with every Democrat on the State Senate Judiciary Committee) to place on California’s 2024 ballot these 8 non-specific, overly-broad words: “The right to marry is a fundamental right.” Notice zero definitions?

This is a fast-moving agenda for immoral, tyrannical homosexual Democrats and their allies. On June 26 in the California State Assembly, 9 Republicans joined 58 Democrats in approving ACA 5. On behalf of your values, SaveCalifornia.com has been blowing the whistle:

ACTION: Call or message your own state senator to urge them to oppose ACA 5.

“When someone has been active in politics for years, they inevitably become friends with powerful, charismatic people who influence their viewpoints…RINOs are almost all wealthy, and they don’t want to lose that wealth. They have families to support and a lot to lose, unlike the rest of us deplorables who mostly come from the middle class…So the next time a RINO gets all high and mighty talking about principles, follow the money and connections.”
