Get Involved – Be  a State Constable!

South Carolina Law Enforcement Training Council

We generally write about a lot of “heavy” stuff. Things that make you THINK … things that make you WORK … and often things that might not agree with your current world view … like telling you your “heroes” (be them RINOs or SCFC) that say they are conservative might not be telling you the truth.  You know … “Watch what they DO, not what they SAY.”

But today we want to share with you something that we learned about a few years ago from a SC State Senator who is a one … but we have also seen a few other politicians that are as well …. so there must be something to it …

… and it is a SC State Constable!!!

Many of us have gotten our Concealed Weapons Permit (CWP) … and then we ask ourselves, “what’s next?”  Some of us may want to be more civically / officially involved … but are too “old” to enlist in the National Guard or Reserves … or don’t want to work full time for state or local government … or don’t (yet) want to RUN FOR OFFICE (HERE) … this might be a good outlet for that civic duty energy.

State Constables are appointed as sworn peace officers authorized to enforce the Laws of the State as specified by law and their Commissions. It is all volunteer, and they primarily assist and support various law enforcement agencies as an extra police officer, as needed.  You can assist with law enforcement at high school or college sporting events, festivals, join police while on patrols … and some have even provided behind the scenes security for President TRUMP when he is in town.  You want to get involved, this could be it.  

REQUIREMENTS:  Know upfront that it is not simple task as there is an extensive training requirement and a thorough background search. The South Carolina Law Enforcement Training Council must certify all State Constables as qualified for public service as a law enforcement officer … and again, this is all volunteer, so be prepared to pay for your training and gear.  It’s not like an old western movie where you are simply “deputized” … this is serious stuff and serious training.

Check it out … and let us know what you think (especially if you are or have been a SC Constable) …  we just wanted everyone to be aware that it exists as an option.

Happy Sunday – November 16, 2025

John 14:23

Politicians (and voters) often claim “Christian values” while ignoring Jesus’ commands like speaking truth, hypocrisy, performative piety, vindictiveness, etc., etc.

Policy positions mean nothing if personal and political conduct disobeys Christ. A leader can quote Scripture on stage but lack God’s presence if their actions contradict it.

Christian influence is not measured by votes won or laws enacted, but by whether God can truly “make His home” in the hearts and actions of those who wield power.

“Jesus replied, Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.”

John 14:23

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), as Veterans Day approaches, the verse from John 15:13, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends”, offers a profound life lesson in selfless sacrifice.

Happy Sunday!

Veterans Day 2025

& Poland Independence Day!

Veterans Day (originally known as Armistice Day) is a federal holiday in the United States observed annually on November 11, for honoring military veterans of the United States Armed Forces. It coincides with holidays in several countries, including Armistice Day and Remembrance Day, which also occur on the anniversary of the end of World War I. Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 when the Armistice with Germany went into effect. At the urging of major U.S. veteran organizations, Armistice Day was renamed Veterans Day in 1954.

Veterans Day is distinct from Memorial Day, a U.S. public holiday in May: Veterans Day commemorates the service of all U.S. veterans, while the older Memorial Day, which grew out of Civil War commemorations, specifically honors those who have died while in military service. Another military holiday that also occurs in May, Armed Forces Day, honors those currently serving in the U.S. military. Additionally, Women Veterans Day is recognized by a growing number of U.S. states that specifically honor women who have served in the U.S. military.

BONUS CONTENT – POLAND INDEPENDENCE DAY: Independence Day (Polish: Narodowe Święto Niepodległości) is a national day in Poland celebrated on 11 November to commemorate the anniversary of the restoration of Poland’s sovereignty as the Second Polish Republic in 1918 from the German, Austro-Hungarian and Russian Empires. Following the partitions in the late 18th century, Poland ceased to exist for 123 years until the end of World War I, when the destruction of the neighboring powers allowed the country to reemerge. It is a non-working day and a flag flying day in Poland.

PAs Veterans Day approaches, the verse from John 15:13, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends”, offers a profound life lesson in selfless sacrifice.

True love is measured not by what we gain, but by what we’re willing to give up, even everything, for the good of others. Veterans embody this when they risk or surrender their lives to protect fellow soldiers, families, and strangers they’ll never meet.

Ask yourself: “Who am I willing to inconvenience, exhaust, or even lose your life for?” Then act on it—small or large. That quiet choice to put someone else first is the same love the verse honors, whether in combat boots or daily life.

This Veterans Day, thank a vet not just with words, but by living the love they defended.

“Greater love has no one than this:to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.“

John 15:13

To repeat from last Sunday (HERE), Proverbs 29:2 cuts through the noise of this and every election season!

Happy Sunday!
