“I’ve never been more proud of getting an F than having SIECUS rate Ohio an F on their sex education report card because SIECUS is quite possibly, one of the most nefarious groups working in education in America today." Baer described SIECUS as “the primary ideological drivers behind the hyper-sexualization of kids” and “the gender ideology that’s being forced on children” as well as “promoting pro-abortion ideology to kids.”

There’s limited access to a digital version of the Bible across countries like Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Somalia, but surveillance and monitorization are intense, Christian websites are often blocked, and extremist groups keep a keen eye on Bible use and distribution. “The translation exists. The digital Bible exists. Safe access does not.”

A city council meeting in Iowa took a dark turn earlier this week when a former member opened the meeting by praising Satan in his invocation. One-time Ottumwa City Council member Matt Dalbey began the meeting by praying to the “dark father” to “embrace the Luciferian impulse to eat from the tree of knowledge” before concluding his prayer with “Hail Satan.” But New Life Center Pastor Rick Bick did not go along to get along. As soon as the council concluded their recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance following the demonic prayer, Bick interrupted the meeting by demanding that Dalbey’s evil prayer be renounced.

Canada is prohibiting assisted suicide access indefinitely for people whose only underlying condition is mental illness.

On the three-year anniversary of the deadliest attack on Israel in modern history, the Jewish nation continues to be misjudged by global leaders—who accuse America’s ally of war crimes following its response to Hamas’ attack on Oct. 7, 2023—says U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee. “Israel is held to a standard that no one else has ever been held to. What would America do to get 250 Americans out of captivity who were being beaten, raped and starved? If that’s our sons and daughters, what do we do?”

An article in the October issue of the liberal Christian Century magazine has raised alarms for those who believe Scripture plainly teaches that monogamous marriage between one man and woman is God’s natural and best design for sexual union and civilization’s bedrock institution. David Congdon, a religious studies lecturer at the University of Kansas who has been described as an ex-evangelical, argues in an article titled “Understanding polyamory” that Christians should be open to “nonmonogamy,” and specifically polyamory—the concept of “many loves”—as a faithful expression of sexual union and relationship.

A Biblical worldview recognizes that individuals bring dignity to families, communities, and societies. We are not cogs in a government-sponsored wheel, nor are we problems for the state to solve. When government controls food supply and distribution, employment and housing, citizens lose the ability to provide for themselves without bureaucrats’ permission. Consequently, the government can enslave its citizenry. It can seize your paycheck, your apartment, or your next meal. People who depend on the state for survival live at the will and convenience of their master. World history is littered with the incomprehensible death and destruction perpetrated by socialist regimes that gutted civilizations of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

An Iranian Christian and former pastor has been granted a one-year residency permit in Israel following an appeal from U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee. N12 News reported that in a letter to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Huckabee, who personally knows Iranian-American pastor Ramin Parsa and his wife, Yasmin, highlighted his “steadfast advocacy on behalf of Israel, the importance of his voice in confronting the Iranian threat, and the humanitarian considerations concerning his family.”

“The state of California doesn’t honor any other religion,” Rabbi Michael Barclay told CBN News. “But suddenly they’re kowtowing and catering to what is effectively Sharia law.” “Ramadan is not a month of peace,” the former Loyola Marymount instructor asserted. “In fact, al-Qaida calls it the month of conquests. And it’s a horrible statement about California and about our politicians who are pandering for whatever money or votes they think they can get from the Islamic community.” The new law’s accommodations for individual public school districts to determine their own closures for Muslim holidays is of specific concern for critics who say it’s a step toward enabling predominantly Islamic areas to operate autonomously under their own Islamic rules known as Sharia law.

Browse social media and you may come across the artistically produced video of a woman imagining her “final days.” The video has been accused of both promoting and romanticizing assisted suicide, with commentators likening the “ad” to the kind of activity “Hitler and Goebbels were doing in Germany, pushing the murder of the ‘unfit.’”

Pro-life advocates are sounding the alarm on congressional Democrats’ plan to nationalize abortion up to birth if the balance of power swings decidedly left in the midterm elections. And their claims aren’t simply campaign rhetoric, but proposed legislation that’s hiding in plain sight.“Massachusetts’ barbaric new Abortion Up Until Birth Act is the Democrats’ agenda for the entire country,” SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser says. “If they control the levers of power in Washington, D.C., they will pass a national law requiring every state to allow elective abortion on demand throughout the second and third trimesters. Brutal late-term abortions done by dismemberment and lethal injection into a baby’s heart will be greenlit across this nation and states will be banned from protecting unborn children at any point.”

“We’re at a crossroads,” Johnson said during a video interview with FRC President Tony Perkins. “It’s not just a contest right now between Republicans and Democrats. As everybody in that auditorium knows, this is a contrast between two completely different worldviews for America, who we are, and what we’re going to be. And that’s what’s on the ballot.” While serving as speaker of the House of Representatives for the past three years, the Louisiana congressman says he has tried ardently to remain true to his core Biblical convictions.

“The abortion drug is not safe,"  Hawley declared during the Family Research Council (FRC) Action’s Pray Vote Stand Summit last week. "It’s not safe for the babies it kills almost every single time, and it’s not safe for the mother, either, because in more than one in 10 cases, the mother who takes that pill is sent to an emergency room with a life-threatening condition. And the pharmaceutical companies who make that drug, they lie about it because they make money on abortions. The more abortions there are, the more money they make.”

A nurse says hospital administrators in Oregon refused her initial request to start an employee resource group for Christians, who wanted to meet for prayer and Bible study, despite providing similar accommodations for other religious employee groups.

The euthanasia debate has intensified in Canada, which has one of the highest rates of medical assisted dying in the world, as its Parliament Members (MP) debate whether mental illness can be a sole criterion for euthanasia access.
