  Mr. TAYLOR. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to recognize national talk 
radio program, Point of View, as they celebrate 50 years of media 
ministry committed to providing listeners with biblical clarity and 
truth.
  Since launching in 1972, under talk radio pioneer, Marlin Maddoux, 
Point of View has offered listeners authentic insight on a full 
spectrum of subject matter and current events affecting our nation's 
families, constitutional freedoms, and faith. In recognition of his 
efforts, Maddoux received the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) 
Award of Merit and was

later inducted into the NRB Hall of Fame. In 1994, Christian Today 
Magazine recognized the program as America's most popular live 
Christian call-in show.
  Much of the longtime success of this program can be attributed to 
current host, Kerby Anderson, whose impressive background includes 
serving as the President of Probe Ministries and as the author of more 
than 25 books ranging from topics focused on media and technology, to 
economics and intelligent design. Cohost Penna Dexter shares the same 
devotion to God's truth as she provides listeners with weekly 
commentary focused on Christian conservative politics and prominent 
cultural issues affecting the family. Throughout it all, the Point of 
View team has remained steadfast in their commitment to sharing the 
truth of God to restore a Christian worldview and provide biblical 
wisdom in today's culture.
  For 50 years, Point of View has brought needed attention to prominent 
issues while serving as a source of wisdom rooted in God's word. I 
offer my heartfelt congratulations to the Point of View team on this 
milestone anniversary and ask my colleagues in the U.S. House of 
Representatives to join me in recognizing their devoted service to 
truth and keeping God's word at the center of their message as they 
seek to enlighten the people of this Nation.
