Intersections: God and Life (relevance: 33.3%, date: Feb 19, 2025)
Exodus 20:3 records the First Word of the Ten Commandments: "You shall have no other gods before me." The Lord demands his people to worship him and alone. Exodus 20:4 says, "You shall not make for yourselves a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." The Lord who demands his people worship to him exclusively also demands his people to worship him correctly. This is the message of the Second Commandment: We must worship God in a manner that is acceptable to him.

Since downtown has always had a huge spot in my heart for most of my life, I also wanted to watch the meeting.
It was evident the advisory board was indeed frustrated with the town council overriding their recommendations.

The national media has been steadily reporting the waste exposed by DOGE:
