Today on Point of View we hear from Tracy Eckert co-founder and director of Storehouse in Dallas, TX and Sandy Woods, teacher and administrator at Comenius School in Fort Mill, South Carolina. They will both tell us more about Comenius School for Creative Leadership.
In the second hour we hear from author, Thomas J. DiLorenzo, professor of economics at Loyola University, Maryland, and a senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute. He discusses his book, The Problem with Socialism.
A former marketing executive of a successful company, Tracy was radically converted in 1999. Following a series of divine appointments she eventually met one of her spiritual fathers, Lou Engle, the visionary and co-founder of TheCall solemn assemblies. The connection inspired Tracy and her husband, John, to begin StandUSA, a former mobilization organization dedicated to educating and registering young voters across the nation. The connection also launched them into a fervent commitment of their lives to governmental intercession, and to stand for life, justice issues, and the ending of abortion.
Tracy attended Stephen F. Austin University and University of Texas Austin. She served on the board of the Lupus Foundation from 1990-1992. She is an intercessor, sought-after speaker, and champion for life and women. She has a contagious zeal for the things of the Lord and is a gifted prophetic teacher. Tracy and her husband have seven children, seven grandchildren and one on the way.
Parents of prospective students and educators from other shools ask this question all the time. They have heard of our students' achievements and want to know "our secret." Do we use our own curriculum? Is there some little known publisher whose work we have tapped into?
Thomas DiLorenzo, economics professor and senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute, deconstructs the retrograde ideology that has suddenly become disturbingly hip in The Problem with Socialism.
Hillary Clinton has outspent Donald Trump in unprecedented fashion. Her endorsements bury Trump’s. The Obama administration is doing its best to restore her viability. The media are outdoing their 2008 liberal prejudices. And yet in John Connally delegate fashion, Clinton’s vast expenditures of $100 million plus have so far earned her only a tiny, if any, lead in most recent polls. If each point of approval is calibrated by dollars spent, Trump’s fly-by-night campaign is ahead.
