Preparedness Notes for Saturday — February 1, 2025

On February 1st, we recognize the birthday of the late Dr. Gary North, in 1942. North was a prolific writer on Christian Reconstruction, economics, and preparedness topics. He passed away on February 24, 2022. His more than 50 published books are a lasting legacy. He also assembled a free online library of books by other godly writers, through his Institute For Christian Economics. Those free books, totaling 38,000 pages, are all still available online. They are a great resource for homeschoolers and economics students.

We also remember February 1st, 2003, when the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated over Texas and Louisiana as it reentered Earth’s atmosphere, killing all seven crew members.

Today’s feature article was too short to qualify for the judging in the writing contest. (There is a 1.500-word minimum.)
