    'Hallmark's Countdown to Christmas' is tapping into something

    The sappiness of “Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas” triggers a Pavlovian snark response for many of us.

    Abortion rates down but the mission remains

    A recent report from the Guttmacher Institute contained very good news: In 2017, the abortion rate fell to its lowest point since Roe v. Wade was decided. The report also contained some not-so-good news: The pro-life gains Christians often talk about are probably “exaggerated.”

    From Chuck Colson to Kanye West: What to make of celebrity conversions?

    Celebrity conversions aren’t easy to navigate.
