Was Margaret Sanger a Racist?

This unending desire by the left to defend utterly everything about Planned Parenthood and its founder, Sanger, no matter how ugly, really is quite astonishing.

Written by Paul Kengor | Thursday, September 24, 2015

This we can say with absolute certainty: Margaret Sanger spoke to a women’s organization affiliated with the KKK and she started the Negro Project to bring birth-control information and clinics to impoverished southern African-Americans. Moreover, the Planned Parenthood founder unequivocally preached a creed of “race improvement,” which meant refining the gene pool and controlling and... Continue Reading

New Report Shows Planned Parenthood Bilks Medicaid

More than 40 Planned Parenthood abortion centers are getting even more government money than they should—by nearly $8.5 million

Written by Rikki Elizabeth Stinnette | Wednesday, September 23, 2015

One of the most recent discoveries happened during a March 2015 audit, when Texas looked into the practices of Planned Parenthood of North Texas. Out of a sample of 210 bills sent to Medicaid, 51 duplicated fees or otherwise inflated prices. The audit concluded the Planned Parenthood affiliate wrongfully billed Medicaid $129,028. Earlier, the Texas... Continue Reading

Growing in Christ, Serving in Ministry: An Interview with Sinclair Ferguson

"Ministry is a calling so wonderful that I wish I could begin it all over again"

Written by TableTalk | Tuesday, September 22, 2015

“Being a theologian means, in essence, having a comprehensive knowledge of the gospel in all its many facets and interconnectedness. I liken it to being a physician who understands anatomy, and a pharmacist who understands body chemistry and knows his pharmaceuticals. Without a good working knowledge of theology, we will never understand how the gospel... Continue Reading

PCA Minister William B. Leonard, Jr., 98, Called Home to Glory

Bill Leonard served in a number of successive Presbyterian denominations, known as the alphabet soup of churches: BPC, EPC, RPCES, and PCA.

Written by Staff | Monday, September 21, 2015

Colorado Springs is where Leonard founded two churches. In 1953, after leaving active duty at the end of the Korean War, where he served as a Navy Chaplain, he planted Grace Presbyterian Church. Twenty years later, in 1972, he was the organizing pastor of Village Seven Presbyterian Church.  He and his wife Helen developed exciting... Continue Reading

In China, a Devastating Choice Between Abortion and Unemployment

A woman felt pressured to abort her baby or else her husband would lose his job as a police officer.

Written by June Cheng | Sunday, September 20, 2015

The story struck a nerve in China, where many couples who choose to give birth to a second child face high fines as well as the loss of government jobs. Late-term abortions and forced abortion are both technically against the law yet still happen in illegal medical clinics and in rural areas.   (WNS)–It started... Continue Reading

Your Life Expectancy and Your Social Security

According to a recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, life expectancy in the United States is the longest ever, approaching 79 years.

Written by Gary Welton | Sunday, September 20, 2015

Apart from the Social Security angle, the reality is that over the last decade, pension and retirement benefits have collapsed or have been drastically cut for many Americans. Those who carefully planned and managed their expected retirement position often had to make life-changing adjustments in order to regain that position. According to recent reports, however,...

“Remaining in PCUSA Is the More Difficult Decision”: Pastor Commends Colleagues in PCUSA

Upon announcing plans to leave the PCUSA, the church's pastor commended those staying

Written by Junhyeong Kim | Saturday, September 19, 2015

“I felt sorry to the 400 some fellow churches and colleague pastors who remain in the denomination,” Lee added. “In some ways, our decision to leave the denomination was an easy one. I think the other Korean churches that decided to stay in the denomination and bring reformation from within made a more difficult and... Continue Reading

Losing Luther

Bolz-Weber’s ministry is the end-result of the dialectical approach to Lutheran theology

Written by Christopher Jackson | Saturday, September 19, 2015

While Catholicism presents a “linear” framework in which the Christian journeys in progress toward holiness, Lutheranism posits a “dialectic” one which precludes any self-perfecting tendencies. In this view, “Christians make no progress in righteousness; they simply return time and again to the word that announces pardon, a word that invites and elicits faith.”    As... Continue Reading

What the Husband of a Chronically Ill Wife Wants Her to Know

Three things that a husband of a chronically ill wife wants her to know

Written by Sam Powell | Thursday, September 17, 2015

I say this, even though I grieve with you; even though I pray and long for your health and strength; even though I do get weary and overwhelmed sometimes.  But what it all comes down to is this: When I vowed “in sickness and in health” I wasn’t just saying words.  I know that health...
