What’s that book those presidents swear in on every four years? Of course, it’s the Bible. Is it just a prop or is there meaning to that tradition? One of the great religious liberty groups in our day is First Liberty, founded by Kelly Shackelford and based in the Dallas area. First Liberty is fighting […]

The Declaration of Independence says we’re endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights and among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. When Vice President Kamala Harris gave a speech promoting abortion over the weekend, she cited our nation’s founding document, and the right to liberty and the pursuit of happiness. But […]

Recently, during a debate, a U.S. Congressional candidate was asked, in effect, if he was an “election denier”—that is, did he have any questions about who was the duly elected president in 2020? His answer was brilliant: “Sir, Joe Biden is the president of the United States. If you don’t believe me, go to your […]

Is God making a comeback in some of the public schools of Texas? A news item last week gives a glimmer of hope that it may be so. 60 years ago this summer, the Supreme Court effectively banished God from the public schools. They did this in the first anti-school prayer case. On June 17, […]

As the debate over abortion rages, with the Supreme Court poised to possibly overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 pro-abortion ruling, I find myself wondering: How can anybody claim that God is in favor of abortion? But some do. Or how can they claim that the issue is important, but not really that important? Francis X. Rocca wrote […]

[Generic image of pro-abortion protest] These days it seems that Saul Alinsky has taken over the Democrat Party. This is no longer the party of JFK—not even close. JFK said in his Inaugural Address, “the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state but from the hand of God.” There is no […]

The Supreme Court is considering a new case related to school prayer. This story began in 2015 when high school football Coach Joe Kennedy got on his knee at mid-field after a game and thanked God quietly. Some of the players voluntarily joined him in this huddle. Kennedy was fired for this act by his […]

As Americans, we look back at slavery with horror. How could anyone have justified that? I predict that future generations will look back at us and wonder the same thing about abortion, an evil the highest court of the land unleashed upon us. With a bang of a gavel in 1973, 63 million fellow Americans […]

Why do people from many other countries try to come to America—even in some cases, risking their lives to do so? What is the source of this nation’s greatness? I think the single biggest thing that makes this country so great is that our founding document—the Declaration of Independence (upon which the Constitution is predicated)—says […]

We seem to be at a low spot in our history as a nation currently. We could use some miracles. Historian Bill Federer notes that in many times in American history, when God’s people prayed, the Lord showed up in special ways. Bill Federer, along with his wife Susan, has produced a few books documenting […]
