    What hath 50 years of ‘Roe’ wrought?

    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 she conveniently left out the right to life — even though that is the first right listed. She also left out the Creator — the source of all our rights.

    ‘Amazing Grace’ and the abolition of slavery

    Killing newborn babies in the land of the free

    How is the Church good for society, even for atheists?

  • The humility of Christmas

    The humility of Christmas

    Here is a lesson for us all. No one in this world, no matter how lowly, no matter what side of the tracks they come from, would find Jesus unrelatable. He is accessible to all.

    Some climate alarmists want you dead, literally

    Why do some climate alarmists essentially wish us all dead? Because they think people are bad for the earth. They don’t believe in God.

  • Canceling the 'most wonderful time of the year'

    Canceling the 'most wonderful time of the year'

    Perhaps the greatest fear of secularists, like those bureaucrats in King County trying to turn Christmas into a black-and-white “winter wasteland,” is the possibility that Jesus is real and that His birth was just the beginning of His Kingdom.

    Disappointed in election results but still grateful to be American

    Despite some of the disappointments in last week’s election, I’m grateful to be an American. This month we celebrate Thanksgiving, when we remember the Pilgrims who came to this new land to celebrate religious freedom — something denied to them in their native England.
