A Church Without Walls, Behind Walls: How Evangelicals Are Transforming American Prisons

In an increasingly large number of prisons, religious programming is now the dominant source of inmate rehabilitation.

Written by Michael Hallett and Byron Johnson | Tuesday, November 2, 2021

Correctional facilities must grapple with unprecedented levels of overcrowding, violence, and suicide, as well as rampant mental illness among inmates. The tightening of budgets and the resulting loss of vocational, educational, and treatment programs pose additional difficulties. In the midst of these struggles, faith-based approaches, led by faith-motivated volunteers and prisoners, are providing the most... Continue Reading

Christian Employers Sue Biden Administration over Gender Transition Payment Mandates

The Christian Employers Alliance filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration on Monday over two mandates that force religious nonprofit and for-profit employers to fund “gender transition surgeries, procedures, counseling, and treatments.”

Written by Brittany Bernstein | Friday, October 29, 2021

The lawsuit argues that the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is misinterpreting and improperly enforcing the definition of sex discrimination included in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to force employers to provide gender transition medical coverage and procedures in violation of their religious beliefs.   The Christian Employers Alliance filed a lawsuit against...

Apple Removes Bible App From Its Store After Communist China Complains

With Apple’s removal of the Quran app and Olive Tree’s self-censorship, Chinese government pressure is now forcing American companies to do the censoring for them.

Written by Arielle Del Turco | Thursday, October 28, 2021

The Chinese government has ramped up restrictions limiting Chinese citizens’ access to the Bible overall. Physical copies of the Bible can no longer be purchased online in China, Christian businessmen have been prosecuted for selling audio Bibles online, and the Chinese Communist Party has announced that it is developing its own version of the Bible that will embrace socialist values....

Escaping the Clever “Kafka Trap”

The secular world clearly controls the language game.

Written by Greg Koukl | Monday, October 25, 2021

The “You’re a racist either way” charge (called a “Kafka trap”) is just one current example of the kind of nonsense used by our own culture’s thought police to cloud our minds and confuse us. Racism exists, of course, but claiming all whites are racist because they’re white simply trivializes genuine racial bigotry.   The... Continue Reading

The Re-Imagined World of John Lennon

The negation of the very things that are real or the denial of distinctions is not a biblical worldview and certainly not one that is Creator/creature distinctive.

Written by Clete Hux | Monday, October 25, 2021

I could not help but notice that the song is replete with the word “no”. No heaven…no hell…no countries…no religion…and no possessions. According to the lyrics, somehow or in some way, the “no” of these things is supposed to bring about “a brotherhood of man” where all share the world, and we live as one.... Continue Reading

How the Irish (Christians) Saved Education

Irish monks viewed the preservation of literature and knowledge as part of their task as Christian scholars and clergy.

Written by John Stonestreet and Glenn Sunshine | Saturday, October 23, 2021

The Irish also had a hand in the recovery of education on the European continent in the late 8th and early 9th centuries. Having built an empire, Charlemagne realized that he desperately needed educated officials to govern it. So, he searched for the best scholar in all of Europe to head his educational reform program... Continue Reading

Is the Church in China being Persecuted?

Pastor Wang Yi was sentenced to 9 years in prison, deprived of his political rights for 3 years, and 50,000 RMB of his personal property were seized.

Written by Nathan Zekveld | Saturday, October 23, 2021

This gentleman declares his fidelity to the Lord Jesus Christ and his burning desire to live faithfully according to his Word: not just as an individual but also as a member of the church of Jesus Christ and particularly as an ordained leader within it. He is being persecuted for preaching the gospel, He is... Continue Reading

Cancel Culture Backfire: Princeton U. Picks Up Lecture Axed by MIT After Prof Targeted by Woke Mob

My crime? Arguing for academic evaluations based on academic merit,” professor Dorian Abbot wrote in Bari Weiss’ Substack newsletter.

Written by Alana Mastrangelo | Thursday, October 21, 2021

The professor said they proposed an alternative framework called “Merit, Fairness, and Equality (MFE),” in which applicants are “treated as individuals and evaluated through a rigorous and unbiased process based on their merit and qualifications alone.” After that, Abbot said his attackers have tried to isolate him and intimidate everyone else into silence.   A woke...

Christian Health Care Workers Win Huge Victory Against New York Vaccine Mandate

Judge Hurd cited the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment in his decision.

Written by Tom Ciesielka | Tuesday, October 19, 2021

The October 12, 2021, Decision and Order now prohibits the governor and any agencies or persons under her from “enforcing, threatening to enforce, attempting to enforce, or otherwise requiring compliance” with the COVID vaccine mandate. New York is also forbidden to take “any action, disciplinary or otherwise, against the licensure, certification, residency, admitting privileges or... Continue Reading

Remaining Faithful When Others Embrace LGBTQ+ Theology

How do we walk through this minefield, pursue humility in our own hearts, and yet remain firm in God’s Word?

Written by John Freeman | Monday, October 18, 2021

You are vulnerable to outside voices tempting you to give in, but the best remedy for standing firm for the long haul is to remain in God’s Word, continually steeping yourself in his perspective and truth. When I speak about how the Bible should inform our sexuality, someone invariably comes up to me and says,... Continue Reading
