Today is the day the Lord has made in these are the times which God has decided we should live. Welcome to the five-minute focus.

That's YouTube.com/at the Todd Herman Show. It seems an unachievable dream to live simply, simply as, well, it used to be. Say in the way of the Amish. I had an opportunity to chat with a very interesting man, his name is Marlon Miller, he's a publisher of Plain Values magazine. He grew up Amish, and he's made a now profession, or I should say, a life, of sharing the gospel with the Amish, the gospel with the Amish. But he's also used his Amish upbringing to create a simple life. Not just for him, for a lot of people. He and his wife adopted for kids, they all have some form of developmental challenge. People often ask them, "Wait, are you ready to be in these people's lives for their entire life and your entire life?" and he said, "Yeah." He told me about his decision to create a community based upon these simple plain values. It has been an amazing blessing. You know, we live in the middle of the biggest Amish settlement on the planet. You know, we have a valley where we are probably one of two families that are not Amish inside our little circle of maybe 10 or so neighbors. And so as we have grown, my next door neighbor, Ivan, is a big homesteader as well. And so the two of our families have really collaborated well. And we now butcher all of our meatbirds. We have butchered our hogs the last couple of years. And as we've done it, Todd, a bunch of the other neighbor families have started to say, "Hey, wait, wait, wait, I want to learn how to do that." I also asked them, "Why would the Amish need to have the gospel shared with them?" People who don't dig into the Amish and their religious beliefs and their tenants might be surprised to know this. Yeah. I think a lot of folks have this misconception that to grow up and live the Amish lifestyle, equates to automatically being right with the Lord. That's episode 1,685, episode 1,686 from the plain values to California. Believe it or not, California is actually losing members of the Hollywood elite. Gillian Michaels is leaving California. She's a fitness influencer who achieved fame. I think she's shaped fame. I think that's when she got well known on the biggest loser TV show. I grew up here. I'm a woman. I'm a gay woman. My mom's a Jew. My dad's an Arab. I have a black kid. And believe it or not, my son is half Latin, even though he doesn't look like it. I hold a million cards in your game of woke victimology poker. And when I leave California, maybe you've lost your f**king mind. That's one way to put it. And she's leaving California. So we'll talk about some other people who are waking up to what California is and how important it is that we are there to help them, to embrace them, to celebrate not just the red-pilling, but the fact that they may well escape spiritual captivity. And it's very difficult to not be a spiritual captive in California. Also talk about Elon Musk. He's celebrating something. He says we're finally going to know the truth about what? Well, finally the truth about the attempt to rig this election. Elon Musk is saying out loud on his own platform that in fact right here, here they are attempting to rig an election. But, will Twitter be the place where we can learn the truth about COVID? Because I know we can't count on YouTube. In fact, we already have a strike against us. We've been investing time in YouTube for about a month. All right, a little longer than that, six weeks. We already have a strike against us because I said Tony Fauci's name. In the UK, things are changing. They're backing away from the safe and effective lives. The rate of information coming out with regard to the adverse events and deaths attributed to the so-called COVID-19 vaccines, it's increasing exponentially. No one there say safe and effective anymore in the UK Parliament. That's a member of UK Parliament. It's the small one. They call it the best solution. The best solution. Yeah, the best solution. Maybe for all too many, well, I won't say the final solution because it's not quite that. Andrew Briggan, you heard from there, is a member of a Parliament in Britain. That is the five-minute focus. Please do share it with friends and much more importantly. Please go with God's good grace. [music] [BLANK_AUDIO]
