With the holiday season behind us and—we feel it—the new year quickly getting started we wonder: what’s in store for 2017?

A year is best defined by events in our families, our friendships, our faith and our livelihoods—and not as much by events in the news, even elections. Many of us have counted numerous personal blessings even during the politically insufferable Obama era. And—even as we await a new President and a new administration—we don’t pretend that the coming year will be free of challenges, personal or political.

But for those of us who value liberty, security and constitutional governance, the horizon looks promising. A President Trump—along with a GOP House and Senate—stands to bolster the Supreme Court, improve our immigration policies and free our economy from excessive taxes and regulation.

The administration taking shape has been a pleasant surprise to many.

2017 may turn out to be a happier year (politically speaking) than any of us thought we could expect.
