Below is a political opinion column by Roger Wicker:
U.S. Senator Roger Wicker says President Donald Trump used military force to protect the United States and make the world safer.
President Trump recently made the most difficult decision a commander-in-chief can make. He ordered American service members into action. The president concluded that the time had come to strike the world’s leading sponsor of terrorism, the Iranian regime. I believe the decision was profound, deliberate, and correct.

Democrats in both the Mississippi House and Senate have opposed the measure, calling it a bad bill that could create more trouble for voters than it solves.
As President Donald Trump (R) is pushing congressional Republicans to pass the SAVE Act that would require voters to provide proof of citizenship at the time of registration and a photo ID when casting a ballot, state lawmakers in Mississippi are taking steps to pass the SHIELD Act to verify citizenship of voters on state rolls. Mississippi already requires voter ID.

With songs like “Stand By Your Man,” “D-I-V-O-R-C-E,” and “Til I Can Make It on My Own,” Tammy Wynette became one of the most recognizable voices in the genre.
Some of the best places in Mississippi are the ones you almost drive past.
The ones tucked just off a two-lane road that you notice out of the corner of your eye while heading somewhere else.
That’s exactly how I first discovered the Tammy Wynette Legacy Center in Tremont.

The House measure would allow licensed business with an alcohol permit to purchase their stock from any willing provider if ABC doesn’t fulfill their order in 5 days. This allowance would be in effect for 2 years.
To address the backlog that has plagued the state’s Alcoholic Beverage Control for months, the Mississippi House of Representatives amended a Senate bill last week through a strike-all amendment that would allow licensed and permitted businesses to purchase stock from other avenues when ABC fails to make timely deliveries.

Robert St. John says hospitality is hospitality, whether the table is set in Hattiesburg or on a fjord in northern Norway.
A restaurateur has no business leading tours through the frozen tundra of Scandinavia. Then again, a restaurateur has no business leading tours through Tuscany, either, and that was over 70 trips and 1,500 people ago.

God did not give humans a spirit of fear; so, do not be afraid to stand for the Word of God. Answer God’s call to walk out of darkness into a life with Jesus Christ, who taught, “Be holy, because I am holy” (1 Pet. 1:16). We live in a flawed body, and believers and unbelievers must strive to live a humble life, treating others as they want to be treated.

"America is in trouble. Because the church is in trouble. We are more concerned with appetite and comfort than we are in the Truth.”
Those opening lines were spoken by a board member of a missions organization I am a part of. That’s not just an untoward slap at our nation. It is, as I have learned across decades, the common assessment of most evangelicals in this nation about the status of faith in the Western world.
And what is at the root of this problem?
