Kirk Cameron and M4L Have a Book for You

Kirk Cameron has a book to plug. It's being published by Brave, a publishing house founded by Texas ophthalmologist Trent Talbot to fight the woke agenda and be "pro-God, pro-America." They've got some fun kid titles like "Elephants are not birds" and other non-Cameron authors like Kevin Sorbo and Lara Trump.
Cameron's book is one of many set on Freedom Island. The back cover copy shows that the saga includes other stories about topics like "dangers of socialism" and "perseverance." Actually, the whole back cover is heavy on right wing nationalism, and God makes no appearance at all, though the description gets into "fruits of the spirit" and "Biblical truths." The whole enterprise seems very much from the sector of folks who worship power and America more than they worship God.

Cameron has been touring and doing book readings to plug his book, which is what authors do. But his scheduled stop in a Houston suburb gives us some very awesome coverage from the right tilted Washington Examiner. 

Cameron had a scheduled stop at a local furniture store known for its owner's appearance in commercials as "Mattress Mack." That stop was apparently at least co-sponsored by the local Moms for Liberty chapter. 
Moms for Liberty’s Harris County Chapter Chairwoman Denise Bell said she is excited to provide an event for families that highlights “wholesome literature, educational material, and entertainment.”

 But it was Cameron who came up with this great quote for the Examiner. 

“I can’t wait to read to families in the Houston area and bring them a message of hope and revival in our public spaces,” Cameron told the Washington Examiner. “Jesus said, ‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.’ Whether you come to find physical rest on Mack's mattresses or spiritual rest for your soul, this story hour is sure to give you both.”

Hustlers gotta hustle. I'm still not buying a copy of the book.
