I just spent the last two hours reviewing this video titled “The Emergent End Times Church Exposed” sent in by SurvivalBlog reader J.R. It’s going to take several more hours for my blood pressure to come back down to a normal level. It is long but well worth the effort to view it. Not only is it disturbing to see such apostasy within the church, but my heart aches for those who are misled. I have seen this movement occur in several local churches. Do not let this happen to your church. Stand up for the truth. – HJL. o …

I recently received a review copy of the book How To Build The Perfect Off-Grid Home, by Roxyann Spanfelner. This profusely-illustrated 185-page large format paperback was recently released by Paladin Press. I was quite impressed with the author’s level of detail on site selection, foundations, general construction, trenching, pipe and conduit runs, plumbing, AC wiring, appliance selection and load estimation, backup generators, and photovoltaic system installation. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is planning to build a retreat, even if you plan to contract out all of the plumbing and electrical work. – JWR o o o How …
