Just learned that many of the insurance co-ops that cropped up before and after obamacare was implemented are going belly up. Including our coverage provider, Health Republic.

Millions of dollars in government loans given to these co-ops will never be repaid.

It’s also coming out that many of these co-op execs were paid very substantial and prohibitive “excessive” salaries and used accounting tricks to conceal it.

Another case of cronie capitalism at it’s finest.

Question: My wife’s uncle is a relatively new Christian and is looking for some type of online biblical schooling. He’s in his late 70’s, so a ‘real’ school is not much of an option, but he’s looking for something more directed than just reading books. Any suggestions?

a new birth in his 70s’s … can i say, Praise the Lord? i’m still praying for a dear uncle in his 100’s who had his belief in God educated out of him … perhaps, his mother’s favorite hymn (99 and 9) will yet find him out there:

“Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine;

Are they not enough for Thee?
”
But the Shepherd made answer:
“This of Mine
Has wandered away from Me;

And although the road be rough and steep,

I go to the desert to find My sheep,

I go to the desert to find My sheep.”

“But none of the ransomed ever knew

How deep were the waters crossed;

Nor how dark was the night the Lord passed through

Ere He found His sheep that was lost.

Out in the desert He heard its cry,

Sick and helpless and ready to die;

Sick and helpless and ready to die.

“Lord, whence are those blood drops all the way

That mark out the mountain’s track”

“They were shed for one who had gone astray

Ere the Shepherd could bring him back.
”
“Lord, whence are Thy hands so rent and torn?”

“They are pierced tonight by many a thorn;

They are pierced tonight by many a thorn.”

And all through the mountains, thunder riven

And up from the rocky steep,

There arose a glad cry to the gate of Heaven,

“Rejoice! I have found My sheep!”

And the angels echoed around the throne,

“Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!

Rejoice, for the Lord brings back His own!”

keep praying and hoping
