My wife stitched a needlework for our home that says, “Life is fragile. Handle with prayer.” But to many with a secular mindset, prayer is meaningless. In our politically correct age, the notion of “thoughts and prayers” is old-fashioned—maybe even offensive to some. Consider some alternatives, declares one website: “It’s a lovely sentiment that may […]

Last week, the death of the final leader of the Soviet Union marked the end of an era. “Mikhail Gorbachev Meets His Maker” is the way professor and author Dr. Paul Kengor entitled his article on this milestone. Gorbachev died on August 30, 2022 at the age of 91. He was the last head of […]

President Biden has more than his share of gaffes. But he made a remark last week on education, as he and his wife Jill hosted a Teacher of the Year event at the White House.  It was not a gaffe. Biden said to teachers: “They’re not somebody else’s children. They’re yours when you’re in the […]

But, of course, abortion undermines that God-given right. A national group of Satanists is putting their cards on the table.  They are opposing abortion restrictions and adamantly […]

The Incredible Impact of Jesus Christ More than twenty-five years ago, D. James Kennedy and I came out with a book called, “What if Jesus had Never Been Born?” It ended up becoming a best-seller. The message is very simple: Because Jesus was born, look at all these incredible blessings we have throughout the world. […]

“Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,” wrote Yeats in “The Second Coming.” He penned those words in 1919, but as David Lehman once observed in the Wall Street Journal, those words provide a “summary of the present age.” Yet through it all, God is at work even when things look bleak—perhaps especially when things […]

During election times, when there are clear moral choices involved between the leading candidates or the leading parties, it is amazing to see how often the pulpits are silent. And yet the lives of potentially millions of unborn babies may well hang in the balance. And abortion is just one issue. There are other important […]
