The United States was NOT founded on Christianity...or was it?

Did America have a Christian founding?  There has been an ongoing debate on this topic and it’s important not just historically, but how religion has a role in this country and inner workings.  The people who believe it wasn’t based on God or Christianity have provided “proof” and continue to use single quotes to persuade those who believe differently.  The most important document in our history, what started it all, is the Declaration of Independence, which I’ll be referring to often. My goal is to get to the bottom of it, from an objective, historical and accurate point of view, rather than picking a few quotes that might support my personal opinion.  I will d ig deep, review historical documents and investigate each of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence. I want to get this right and leave no room for assumptions or inaccuracies. I believe that a majority of Americans have forgotten where we have come from and what we and this country are all about.

THE #1 WAY TO LIVE A TRULY FREE AND FULFILLING LIFE December 8, 2016 © by Ronald Kern Ronald Kern © LIVING THE DREAM There is nothing more exciting, liberating, and fulfilling than doing what you love. Imagine fueling the fire of your passion daily, not because you have to, but because you want to.  I feel fortunate and blessed because I get to wake up every day and do what I love.  I worked extremely hard to reach this place, but if I can do it, anyone can, they just need some tools and support, which is why I created Passion In Action International. It causes me grief when I meet people from all over the world, who absolutely despise their careers. They dread getting out of bed in the morning, trod through the day and put on an 8-10 hour act, and then come home miserable. HAVING IT ALL Even worse than that is when I meet people who are considered incredibly successful, but deep down, are truly unhappy. They feel tr

YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF (AND OTHERS) TO TALK MORE AND TEXT LESS. OLD SCHOOL OF THE FUTURE February 10, 2016 © by Ronald Kern © Ronald Kern You sit down in front of your computer, ready to start the day.  You post something inspiring, you then tweet so many tweets that the person next to you thinks they are in an aviary, then of course Google+ and Instagram need your attention, so you do that too.  But wait, you aren’t done, not even close.  There are the countless emails to respond to, pictures to add to your favorite Pinterest board, and then do a couple live broadcasts on Facebook and Periscope.  Finally you are done, job well done.  PSYCH!  You of course still have blogs to write, promotional videos to add on YouTube and Vimeo, and you need to provide an update, publish a post, and answer every notification on LinkedIn.  Whew, now you are done, well, at least until something happens worthy of sharing, so you have to do it all over

The "Perfect Love" - During Death

THE "PERFECT LOVE" - DURING DEATH November 9, 2015 © by Ronald Kern © Ronald Kern It was a day like any other for Glenn O’Dell, at his home in a rural city in Idaho, on September 23, 2009.  “I remember it like yesterday,” he told me. “I had just finished lunch and sat down in my den with 3 or 4 pieces of licorice and all of a sudden, 'wham' in the chest. It was excruciating pain and I instantly knew it was a heart attack.” Glenn did his best to make a croaking sound (it was hard to make any sound due to lack of oxygen and intense pain), and gained the attention of his son Shawn. Glenn told him to drive to the city of Kuna and find paramedics, so Shawn loaded him in the car and off they went. Along the way they came to a railroad crossing and a train was passing through, which forced them to stop. “I remember seeing the train and it was moving so slow, I focused on my breathing, which helped me calm down,” Glenn
