Today I had the privilege of sponsoring in San Antonio my father Howard Phillips and about twenty-five leaders from around the country for a special summit to discuss key public policy directives for the United States. The common denominator of the group was a love for Christ, the Constitution, and an appreciation for the role of Divine Providence in our nation’s history. The group was delightfully diverse and included physicians, attorneys, businessmen, pastors, authors, and radio personalities. My sons Joshua and Justice attended with me, as did my personal assistant Bob Renaud.

From Doug’s Bookshelf: I am currently reading and plan to write an extensive review of the book All the President’s Children by Doug Wead, published by Atria Books and released this March. The book, which carries the subtitle, “Triumph and Tragedy in the Lives of America’s First Families,” is very significant for proponants of biblical patriarchy because it examines the interaction of great American leaders with their children and analyzes the results. I am holding off on discussing the thesis of the book until I complete my read, but the facts presented are astonishing. It is a landmark bit of research which should be of great value.
