Hooked On Books: T e Legacy Of Pat Robertson

By Kelly Wise Valdes

Pat Robertson, Christian broadcaster, longtime television host and author, died last month at his Virginia Beach home at the age of 93. He was best known for his commentary and prayer as leader of The 700 Club television show. Robertson’s rise to fame was based on his vision from God to create the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), which he founded more than 60 years ago. In 1960, Robertson created CBN with $70 dollars to his name and a company bank account with a $3 initial deposit. In 1966, Robertson began to host a daily talk show, The 700 Club. Still on air today, it’s one of the longest-running programs in history. In addition, Robertson authored 18 books and managed multiple nonprofit organizations. Despite losing his wife, Dede, in 2022 and his declining health, Robertson’s faith never wavered. Robertson leaves behind his four children, 14 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren and thousands of faithful fans worldwide. 2 Timothy 4:7 says, I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.

How Sanibel And Captiva Islands Are Coming Back And Better Than Ever After Hurricane Ian

On September 28, 2022, one of the most powerful storms to ever hit the United States made landfall on Florida’s Gulf Coast, causing 2.6 million Florida residents to lose power. This devastating event named Hurricane Ian caused $12.6 billion in insured losses, holding the second-place title for the largest insurance loss after Hurricane Katrina. Two fan-favorite islands, Sanibel and Captiva, were in direct path of Ian. Almost a year later, Sanibel and Captiva islands are making their long-awaited return to their Florida families. Here’s how to navigate the new Sanibel and Captiva.

The Sanibel & Captiva Islands Chamber of Commerce stated, “By consensus, the Sanibel City Council supported the decision to end the requirement for reentry passes on January 2, 2023. The City of Sanibel asks that nonresidents respect and understand the fact that Sanibel is still actively working to recover from Hurricane Ian,” in response to the bridge’s reopening cautions.
