Getting the “Theism” Right in New Theism

The countermovement to the New Atheists will be authentic if it understands the truth and personhood of Christ.

Written by John Stonestreet | Monday, January 26, 2026

Perhaps the most inspiring story of this “New Theism,” is that of Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who came to a powerful belief in Jesus Christ after rejecting Islam (a different theism) and atheism. Now, by Ali’s own admission, she is truly free in Christ. Her story is told in the film Truth Rising, with an even... Continue Reading

More Than a Zoning Fight

Oklahoma Town Defeats Proposed Mosque—For Now

Written by Dusty Deevers | Wednesday, January 21, 2026

Christians have two duties that must not be neglected. First, we must preach Christ to all nations and all peoples, including Muslims. But, second, this does not lessen in the slightest the duty of Western governments and us as American citizens to think clearly and act boldly in the face of the unique civilizational challenge...

Protesters Disrupt Southern Baptist Church of Pastor Who Leads ICE Office in Minnesota

The Racial Justice Network, Black Lives Matter Minnesota, and Black Lives Matter Twin Cities organized an “ICE Out” protest at the church on Sunday.

Written by Brian Kaylor | Tuesday, January 20, 2026

The U.S. Department of Justice Civil Rights Division says it’s “investigating the potential violations of the federal FACE Act by these people desecrating a house of worship and interfering with Christian worshippers.” Southern Baptist Convention leaders are also condemning the protest, with the president of the SBC’s North American Mission Board pledging to “provide protection” for the church “if...

Why Young Men Are Talking to Machines

...and what they’re really looking for

Written by Chris Harper | Tuesday, January 20, 2026

Young people are using AI as a clarity engine [not a counselor]. They’re not asking for diagnoses. They’re not asking for treatment plans. They’re uploading email threads, text conversations, DMs, or comment exchanges and asking a simple question: “What is actually happening here?”…The appeal isn’t authority, it’s legibility. And that tells us something important. Young... Continue Reading

A Mark of the Faithful

Enduring legitimate persecution is a mark of being a faithful Christian, not the only mark, but it is a longstanding and biblical mark.

Written by Bruce A. Little | Sunday, January 18, 2026

Persecution against true Christianity (as opposed to cultural Christianity) has a long history beginning with the birth of the Church. In fact, Jesus said that “if the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you” (Jn 15:18) and “In the world you will have persecution. But take heart; I have... Continue Reading

In Defense of My Assertion that Appropriating Material from Francis Spufford’s Unapologetic is a Sin

If one cannot distinguish blasphemous filth that denies the faith from the true faith, he is so nearsighted as to be blind.

Written by Tom Hervey | Thursday, January 15, 2026

Let me state this plainly and as lovingly as this constrained digital format permits. If one cannot distinguish blasphemous filth that denies the faith from the true faith, he is so nearsighted as to be blind. He forgets that “bad company ruins good morals” (1 Cor. 15:33) and that we are to “touch no unclean... Continue Reading

Banning Public Prayer in Quebec

“We view this as overreach that will impact religious communities across Quebec and deserves scrutiny."

Written by Rick Plasterer | Tuesday, January 13, 2026

While Muslims praying in public is likely the precipitating cause (or excuse) for Bill 9, Quebec’s secularist CAQ government can use and likely will use the opportunity to strike at traditional religion generally. One group that will be significantly affected is the pro-life movement. The Campaign Life Coalition’s Jack Fonseca has warned, “I suspect the real... Continue Reading

Abortion in America After the Fall of Roe: Important Advances and Remaining Challenges

The pro-life movement must continue pressing its case in the courts by challenging the constitutionality of shield laws.

Written by David Closson | Tuesday, January 13, 2026

Despite the steady progress achieved by pro-lifers since Dobbs, challenges remain. Perhaps the greatest challenge to the pro-life movement is the prevalence of abortion drugs. In November 2025, The New York Times editorial board rightly observed that “abortion pills have transformed the practice of reproductive medicine.” In fact, it is estimated that over 63% of abortions now take place through...

Faith in Focus

5 religion trends to watch in 2026.

Written by Clemente Lisi | Sunday, January 11, 2026

With 2025 now behind us, it was a year filled with significant developments in religion, faith and spirituality — and 2026 will likely be just as eventful.   While 2025 revealed a possible slowing in the long-term decline of Christianity in the United States, new data this year could either confirm that trend or upend...

“Christian Nationalism” is a Useless Term

The term “Christian Nationalism” is useless. . . .That’s the best case.

Written by Forrest Marion | Friday, January 9, 2026

Instead of being Christian Nationalists, biblical Christians will do just fine identifying as Christians—Christians who love their country—a country that is part of Christendom. And that’s consistent with how our believing, yet imperfect, forefathers—not to mention countless nominal Christians who were part of a Christian-informed culture—saw themselves until about five seconds ago in the span...
