...to go look at the original documents.
In this case, the parent is not only legally complaining that a member of the school board talked to her employer to get her fired, but also that her employer was threatened with the withdrawal of a notable professional recognition if he didn't.
And the article badly misreports [EDIT: may be misreporting; it is unclear whether the source of this information is the original complaint, or later sources in the course of the lawsuit] the member of the school board that made the call. According to the complaint--assuming it is a true copy of the actual document, which you can't take for granted these days--it was the president of the school board, who just happened to be highly-ranked within the organization granting the award.
Now one has to begin to wonder, did the school board president influence the choice of the award toward that particular employer, in order to have leverage to get the pesky parent to shut up?
And are there friendship or kinship connections hiding in the background, that would significantly alter an outsider's assessment of the situation, if known?
Derek Chauvin and George Floyd were coworkers, remember.
There is much to be gleaned from old books. Today I learned that the cutting to pieces of Rahab in Isaiah 51 can be understood as part of God's work in parting and securing a passage across the Red Sea for the escape of the Israelites from Egypt.
They weren't just fleeing the Egyptians; there were principalities and powers at work then, just as now.
The Israelites were significantly reminded of the Red Sea passage as they entered the Promised Land, Joshua 4 says, when God stopped the flow of the Jordan River for them to cross over.
There's also the prostitute Rahab who assisted the Israelites, whose God had easily defeated her namesake.
"Three souls flying home because I stayed behind"
One of the souls I've helped toward salvation suddenly flew home recently. This song helped me to really cry for the first time over it.
I happened to read about the Gadarene swine in Mark 3 this morning before coming across this piece, which mentions it.
David Clements mentions Michael Cocchini. A quick internet search tells me that they've worked together before, and that a different Michael Cocchini--and a Susan Clements--went fatally missing in the Smoky Mountains. At separate times.
Feels like a rabbit hole.
Much like Jonathan Cahn connects the major demons of ancient Israel to today's United States, Clements says that the spirits of the Nephilim are here and active.
