As we say goodbye to 2023 and reflect on this past year, Cal Thomas has some observations about the last fifty years! He says, “One thing that always amazes me is how things never really change. You can change hairstyles, clothes, styles, modes of transportation. You can even change politicians. But nothing really seems to change. A lot of that has to do with human nature.” On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, Thomas, best-selling author, syndicated columnist and political commentator, talks about his book, “A Watchman in the Night.” It explores what he’s witnessed over the past 50 years of journalism and the thousands of columns he’s written commenting on world events, cultural movements, politics and all things involving human existence. But there is one mandate that separates Thomas from the herd; his standard of truth is based on Scripture. All his commentaries have as their guide the light of God’s Word. Yes, Thomas has met and interviewed world leaders, American presidents and Hollywood and Broadway stars; but also, just plain folk whose names no one will remember. All the while, his keen observances have made him a ‘Watchman’; a custodian of a culture that has separated itself from God. And as we say hello to 2024, Thomas will continue to do the same, but with a hope that his words will help people find their way back to the truth that made America the land of the free and the home of the brave.
