We Are Repaganizing

Most people who describe themselves as pro-choice have not really thought about what truly abandoning Christianity would mean.

Written by Louise Perry | Tuesday, September 19, 2023

Given the widespread practice of both abortion and infanticide, even in Christian cultures, it’s apparent that people struggle to abide by a moral principle that causes huge practical problems. Christianity only ever blended with paganism, rather than fully replacing it, because Christian teachings do cause huge practical problems for followers of the faith. It is... Continue Reading

Denying the Greatest Event in the History of the World

Religious Education classes have been forced to abandon BC and AD in favor of the more politically correct terms.

Written by Gary Bates | Tuesday, September 19, 2023

The birth of Christ and His existence cannot be disputed—there is the evidence from the Bible, and also from other sources.6 Will Christmas be next? Don’t let it be so. As we approach the Advent, I encourage us all to be on the front foot in this battle. There has never been a better time to... Continue Reading

When Is a Question Better than an Answer?

Six good questions to ask and a helpful resource to use when engaging neighbors on hot topics.

Written by John Stonestreet | Monday, September 18, 2023

Too often, assertions are mistaken for arguments, and there’s a vast difference between the two. An assertion is a definitive statement made about the nature of reality. An argument is presented to back up an assertion. By asking “how do you know that’s true?” we’ll move the conversation beyond dueling assertions to why those assertions... Continue Reading

What Is the West without Christendom?

The church’s retreat to the margins of society could be a much-needed step in the direction of the cross.

Written by Andrew Wilson | Monday, September 18, 2023

The modern West is post-Christian in the same sort of way that it is postindustrial. Neither Christianity nor industrialization have been truly left behind, for all that our use of “post-” language implies they have. Their cultural footprints remain enormous, even when the churches and factories have been turned into flats. What has happened, rather,... Continue Reading

How a Bible Tweet Led to a Battle for Free Speech

Finland has put one of its members of parliament on trial for publicly sharing her deeply held beliefs about marriage and sexuality.  

Written by Sofia Hörder | Sunday, September 17, 2023

As Räsänen points out herself, one does not need to agree with her beliefs to agree that everyone should have the right to speak freely. As Räsänen waits for the ruling of the Court of Appeal, expected before November 30, a lot lies at stake. The verdict will reflect the state of regard for free... Continue Reading

The Rise and Fall of the Evangelical Elite

It is now plain to everyone that the obsequiousness of the evangelical elite to their hostile secularist counterparts is harmful to the country, to churches, and to the advance of the Gospel.

Written by Stephen Wolfe | Tuesday, September 12, 2023

It is obvious now, looking back at the post-9/11 and pre-Obergefell era, that the leftward drift of this movement was inevitable. The end of Renn’s “neutral world” and the beginning of a negative world hostile to Christianity began soon after the Supreme Court’s Obergefell decision in 2015  and accelerated rapidly with Trump’s 2016 victory. Changed... Continue Reading

No True Christian: Part One

Too many Americans do not allow the Scriptures to determine for them what a true Christian is but instead are using their own established cultural and political beliefs to define Who Jesus is and what Christianity should look like.

Written by Don and Joy Veinot | Tuesday, September 12, 2023

Nearly all of the New Testament was written to expose false teachers, and false teaching, correct bad behavior, and teach sound doctrine to the believers. Christians are forgiven and cleansed from their sins but still may make sinful choices. This can be true of the church corporately as well. We need to turn to Scripture... Continue Reading

Why You Shouldn’t Use “Preferred Pronouns” and Other Ideological Language

It isn’t that biological males don’t exist – it’s just that biological male is the only kind of male. Sex and gender are not, as the trans activists claim, separate things.

Written by Jonathon Van Maren | Monday, September 11, 2023

The Daily Mail, the Wall Street Journal, Fox News, and others – all use female pronouns to refer to trans-identifying males, and vice versa. At times, readers are treated to the schizophrenic experience of reading an article making the case against gender ideology which uses the very pronouns that affirm the premises of that ideology....

An Agenda Other than Justice

The Biden Justice Department shows its partisan stripes in abortion decisions.

Written by Ericka Andersen | Saturday, September 9, 2023

Five pro-life activists who protested against Santangelo’s practice were found guilty of conspiracy and of violating the FACE (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances) Act. They are looking at up to 11 years in prison, while Santangelo continues to work with a valid medical license. In 2020, the members of the group Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU)...

Are Children Now Creatures of the State?

A diverse coalition of parents fights against LGBT indoctrination of their children.

Written by Joseph Griffith | Tuesday, September 5, 2023

At the beginning of the year, Montgomery County Public Schools introduced six “LGBTQ+-inclusive” books to their story hours but promised that the readings would be “optional” and scheduled only after families were notified. All that changed on March 23, when the School Board abruptly announced that the story hours were now mandatory and opt outs would...
