The war on America as founded continues unabated. As well know, the Francis Scott Key Bridge was destroyed recently, and already the woke elites are calling for it to be renamed. Key, who wrote what became the basis for our National Motto, was a man of his times. And those times don’t measure up to […]
The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is the cornerstone of historic Christianity. But is there scientific evidence it really happened? Some scholars believe that yes, there is and it’s in a cathedral in Turin, Italy. The Shroud of Turin, a linen cloth 14 feet by 3 feet, contains the image of a man who […]
Last week an item on Fox News.com caught my attention. It was a “this day in history” article, commemorating the first rock music concert held, on March 21, 1952. It took place in Cleveland, and it ended in chaos. Glenn Gass, a professor emeritus from Indiana University, said, “Right from the start, it was seen […]
For more than 50 years, the left has promoted abortion in America. But last week we saw something new in this battle. For the first time ever, a vice-president actually visited a facility where unborn babies are systematically killed when Kamala Harris toured a Planned Parenthood abortion facility in St. Paul, Minnesota. She called laws […]
Can anybody name one-square inch on the planet where Communism has done anyone any good? Anywhere? Not for the ruling elites, but for the people themselves? It doesn’t exist. How, then, do they continue to manage to create new recruits? Well, a story out of California last week explains one strategy. Writing for The Free […]
It seems like everyone is talking these days about Rob Reiner’s hitjob movie against the religious right. It makes “Christian Nationalists” into the bogeyman. Although I travel in the circles of Christian conservatives, I have yet to meet anyone who has actually yet seen Reiner’s movie. But I have seen a trailer for it. The […]
We have become a nation of rude people. Does that matter? I actually think it does because there is a link between manners and morals. As a grandfather of three little children, it’s so important to teach them to engage in good manners, to be grateful. I even write thank you notes to local places […]
Since we celebrated Presidents’ Day recently, I thought it might be interesting to reflect on the faith of the first six men who held that office. Most of them were believers in Jesus and were not ashamed to say so. Several of these instances are not politically correct, but they are historically accurate. In 1779, […]
In recent decades the quality of American education has plummeted. When you scan the headlines related to education, you realize how far we have fallen: ∙A “non-binary” activist teacher promotes the woke agenda for kindergarteners and claims that the U.S. and Israel have “no right to exist.” ∙Harvard, America’s oldest and most prestigious college (historically), […]
Are parents who are concerned for their children’s education “haters”? Are they bigots? Do they deserve to be treated as “domestic terrorists”? The answer to all of these questions should be, “No.” But lately, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), a group that claims to be the last word in who are haters and hate […]
Almost 250 years ago, 13 separate colonies in North America, founded mostly by the British, made a pact together to form one unit. Instead of being colonies, they became states. They joined together to form the United States. The federal government did not create the states. It was the reverse–the states united together to form […]
Around this time of year, we remember the infamous Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade of January 22, 1973, which condemned some 65 million preborn people in America to death in abortions. Although Roe was overturned, abortion is very much a pressing issue today. And it has been and continues to promoted in the […]
Recently, the Biden administration was going after a statue of William Penn in the city he founded, Philadelphia, in a state literally named after his family. The administration was calling for the “rehabilitation of Welcome Park.” Welcome was the name of the ship on which the founder of Pennsylvania sailed to these shores in 1682. […]
Here’s a quick quiz. When you think of December 25th, what comes to mind? No doubt Christmas is the answer. How about February 14? St. Valentine’s Day, of course. When you think of July 4th, the birthday of America comes to mind. But what do you think of in reference to January 6th? What comes […]
History is filled with people who quit too early, and thus never fulfilled their key task in life. With a new year upon us, it’s good to think about how God pours His blessings on those who persist. Even when facing adversity, when the time comes, they push forward with what they feel He has […]
