But I have and to me he is like Esther and God has placed him here "for such a time as this." I know he has joined the Mormon church but he has a daughter who has multiple scherolis. He was raised in the Roman Catholic church but was a back-slidden catholic. He and his wife began looking for a church home and their disabled daughter loved the Mormon church and felt very much at home there so they became members but obviously he has never forgotten the roots of his faith. Listen to his speech to the "Christians United for Israel." Very inspiring.

Been a fan for years. He has gotten so serious and maudlin on his TV show that I stopped watching, but I really like his radio show. It's a good mix of serious and silly. When he starts getting to heavyhanded, his two side-kicks interject some humor and lighten things up a bit. THere are a lot of luke warm people who don't like people as extreme in their opinions as Glenn or Rush, but they need to hear their message.
The left has been pretty successful in painting him as a looney tunes, so it's only the faithful on the right who pay any attention to him, unfortunately.

I mostly agree with Beck in his analysis of the political scene as well as his take on the condition of the world.

I can't watch him and I really don't like to listen to him because of the silliness but I do like to read the transcripts and published views.

Beck, Limbaugh, Hannity and Levin with a few others are keeping things from being much worse than they are. If it weren't for them, Fox News and the internet our goose would certainly be cooked by now.

In one of them he talks about their visit to Auschwich and Birkenau and how traumatic it was. He has gone all out in defense of Israel and trying to get the truth out about Israel to counteract the lies about the oppressed Palestinians

Glenn is no longer on Fox News. He has started his own TV station....GBTV....and is currently in Israel and doing a documentary on Israel (Restoring Courage) which will be aired on his station August 24th. He had planned to have it on the Temple Mount but the Israelis were worried about security because it coincided with the end of Ramadan so he's moving it to another location but hasn't said where yet. His TV station will officially launch September 12th. You can access it thru several different means but to watch it on TV you need a Roku box. I went ahead and got one and Tim (my grandson) got it all hooked up for me so I'm ready to go. Glenn is planning some great presentations and also has moved to Texas and plans to build his own station there. Right now he is broadcasting from New York. I'm really looking forward to it. Will be such a change from most of the garbage we're inundated with.

Author: dori [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 14:43:15 07/21/11 Thu Didn't realize he was going THAT big. Good for him! Now, what in the heck is a roku box and where did you get it?

Author: dori [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 20:01:22 07/21/11 Thu I wonder if that means we could get Glenn Beck through there, too--or does it only work through a TV? Guess I'll have to research this. Thanks, sis!

Author: dori [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 00:29:52 07/25/11 Mon I was just saying I am able to, so I wondered if that meant I could also access roku thru my wii. Will have to research the two. 8-)
