VIEW SHOW

Tuesday, April 4, 2017
Our first guest is Jimmy Meeks police officer and minister. He tells us more about a bill currently before the Texas Legislature: HOUSE BILL 421. As of now churches are under the Occupations Code. As a result they have to follow certain restrictions to protect their people - and they cannot formed an armed team. If HB 421 passes, churches are free to choose whatever path they want and no longer be under the restrictions of the Occupations Code.

In the second hour we hear from Chaplain, Colonel Robert Hicks, he discusses his book, Few Call it War: Religious Terrorism: Then and Now.
