John S. Torell is founder and president of European-American Evangelistic Crusades, Inc., which was incorporated in the state of California as a nonprofit religious organization in 1972. EAEC is a mission organization dedicated to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a dying world, with headquarters in Sacramento, California. Born in Sweden in 1939. He entered an Engineering College at Jonkoping, Sweden where he graduated in 1963 with a B.S. degree in mechanical engineering. During his second year in college he married his wife, Aina (i-na). Soon after graduation, they immigrated to the United States. They were sponsored by John's Uncle's family who were Mormons and hoped John and Aina would also join the Mormon church, but God had other plans. In May of 1965, watching a television special, they each came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The Lord led them to a small Southern Baptist Church where they became members and were baptized in water by immersion. For the next three and a half years they were grounded in the Bible, taught Sunday School classes and learned about visitation and general church administration. God called John and Aina into full time ministry to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ on April 16, 1967. John received his Masters of Divinity Degree from Golden Gate Seminary in 1973. They each experienced the infilling of the Holy Spirit, John, after attending a Full Gospel Business Meeting. While still in seminary, John and Aina took an evangelistic crusade team to Europe, with particular emphasis on the Scandinavian countries of Sweden and Finland. During the next twelve years, eight preaching trips were made. God commissioned John to write a series of Bible study books, which he completed in the 1970's and also translated into Swedish and sold in the Scandinavian countries. They are called, Christian Dynamics, Course 1, 2, 3 and 4, and The Rise of Antichrist, Part 1. From 1975-1977, John served as pastor for Christian Life Center in Lodi, California and from 1978-1984; he served as pastor for Christian Life Ministries in Carmichael, California. In 1986, the Lord spoke to John while he and his wife were in an airliner over Texas and told him to go to Sacramento, California, and begin another church and call it Resurrection Life of Jesus Church. RLJC is located in the Sacramento area. The Lord is prospering and giving the increase. Revival and awakening have already begun.

𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑮𝑬𝑫𝒀 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝑶𝑷𝑬, by Carroll Quigley, 1966

Carroll Quigley wrote 𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑮𝑬𝑫𝒀 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝑶𝑷𝑬 in 1966, 1311 pages long, quite a long read. It portrays western history approximately 1880s - 1964, with an extensive historical background, giving a world perspective and analysis through that time frame. Quigley's analysis, of world "goings on" of the time frame it covers, has made 𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑮𝑬𝑫𝒀 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝑶𝑷𝑬 the conspiracy theorist's "Bible". These videos show the text (for the most part) as well as audio. I've given the page numbers from my copy of the book, the Second Printing in 1974. Sometimes the text in the video may be difficult to follow. Occasionally the chapter or part number within a video may not agree with the number I've given that video. I renumbered some of the videos to make more sense to me, though the number embedded in the video would remain the same. There are free downloadable PDF files of 𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑮𝑬𝑫𝒀 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝑶𝑷𝑬 available. The best one I found, as it portrays the book just as Quigley wrote it and follows the page numbering of my copy. https://archive.org/download/TragedyAndHope_201709/Tragedy_and_Hope.pdf

I first heard about Bitcoin in 2013 in a poker game, but like most noobs, dismissed it as a scam. It wasn't until 2017 that I finally paid attention and dove head first down the rabbit hole. Since then I've spent 1000+ hours learning about crypto, bitcoin, blockchain, finance, and macroeconomics. In this video I share some of my biggest mistakes, lessons learned and strategies for being a winning investor. I look forward to helping you on your crypto journey and sharing the best of what I learn. Alec
