It is ONLY an invitation to testify. It is a strongly worded letter (intimidation - not a subpoena) that urges testimony. It cannot hold someone who refuses the "invitation" to be in contempt of court (since congressional hearings are not a court of law). The fact that the the MSM keeps using the word "subpoena" and "impeachment" when Schiff "invites" someone he wants to testify is just one other fabrication in this whole three ring circus.

Americans are learning how to decipher what is real and what is propaganda. Our country was founded on principals of freedom, independence and liberty from tyranny. We should not forget this. We do NOT forget this.

We're being listened to.

Don't you listen to the voices that tell you we're not.

They lie...and the One who does the real convincing and honors us to convey His messages once in a while does so in the secret places of peoples' hearts...

Where did Elijah hear the voice of the Lord...in the whirlwind or the quiet place?

The dynamic is different. The Holy Spirit draws all and speaks to all who know this and listen.

Anyone who wants, now, can hear God in the quiet place and enough have done so in the last two e******ns to make the difference.

I'm an optimist...I think more will hear Him this time.

There is wisdom in silence these days. We just have to put it into perspective within our faith, I think.

Remember the scene in Field of Dreams where the guy winds up to pitch and suddenly the crowd noise is gone and it's just him and the batter? Nothing but silence and razor-edged focus.

Silence is good if you happen to be ignoring noise.

Yup. All we have to do is focus on what is good and right. It always works out when we do.
