…our country has fallen deeper into the abyss of apathy, low expectations, and dependence on government rather than commitment to excellence, expectation of achievement, and fierce dedication to liberty.
Carl Pittman is unflinching in speaking his truth, and his plainspoken insights let light into the darkness of our country’s increasingly aggressive ignorance. The foundation for his life philosophy comes from his mother, a devoted, ferociously wise woman.
Mama could not read, could barely write her name, and struggled for most of her fifty years on this earth, but always told us that being poor didn’t mean you had to be a thief, because you could work, nor be dirty, because soap was cheap.
“Right is right and wrong is wrong, no matter who’s doing it.”
This last maxim-which should be simple to understand-lends perspective to many of the issues our country handles with kid gloves because of the race of those involved. Many white Americans despise President Obama because of his race. Many black Americans find no fault with Obama for the same reason. In fact, both positions are racist. Pittman’s position?
Barack Obama should be prosecuted…because his politics are being placed above the safety and security of this nation.
The Constitution is under attack from parties who prefer an a la carte body of law. Concerning the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, Pittman opines, “Had there been a good guy with a gun there, I believe the outcome would have been much different.”
The Personal Journey of a Black Common Sense Conservative is not, in the end, about politics. It is about, very simply, what’s right and fair in alignment with what the term American truly means. Pittman’s is a bold and refreshing voice hoping to drown out the roaring passivity of a complacent, entitled society.

Person Of Interest
$24.99Dateline featured cold-case detective and best-selling author J. Warner Wallace investigates Jesus, the most significant person in history, like one of his “missing body, cold-cases,” demonstrating why Jesus still matters today, even in a world that is skeptical of the Bible.
Detective J. Warner Wallace listened to a pastor talk about Jesus and wondered why anyone would think Jesus was a person of interest.
Wallace was skeptical of the Bible, but he’d investigated several “no-body, missing person” cases in which there was no crime scene, no physical evidence, and no victim’s body. He successfully identified and convicted the killers in these cases, even without evidence from the scene.
Could the historical life and actions of Jesus be investigated in the same way? Could the truth about Jesus be uncovered even without a body or a crime scene? In Person of Interest, Wallace describes his own personal investigative journey from atheism to Christianity, as he employs a unique investigative strategy to confirm the historicity and deity of Jesus–without relying on the New Testament manuscripts.
Imagining a scenario in which every New Testament document has been destroyed, Wallace carefully sifts through the evidence from history alone to reconstruct the identity of Jesus as the world’s most important person of interest.
Person of Interest will:
*Invite readers into the life of a cold-case detective as he uncovers the truth about Jesus, using the same approach he also employs to solve a real murder case*Teach readers how to become good detectives, using an innovative and unique “‘fuse’ and ‘fallout'” investigative strategy they can also use to examine other claims of history
*Show how Jesus changed the world and why He still matters today
*Help readers to explore common objections to Christianity
Creative, compelling, and unique in its approach, Person of Interest will strengthen the faith of believers, while engaging those who are skeptical and distrusting of the New Testament.
