Is there “woke nonsense” at America’s prestigious Smithsonian museum in Washington, D.C., dedicated to our nation’s history? Is Mickey Mouse somehow racist? Is politeness a sign of “white supremacy”?

In the preceding two years, the Nazarene Rabbi’s reputation as a truth-speaker and miracle-worker had steadily grown, as news of His exploits and teachings had swept across 1st-century Judea and Samaria. Now, withdrawn into this remote and predominantly pagan region, with shrines to the Greek god Pan immediately behind Him and the breathtaking beauty of the woods and cliffs all around Him, Jesus turned to His disciples and posed a seemingly simple, straightforward question: “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”

Young women training to bring life into the world are instead being trained to end it. Most students who choose midwifery do it because they want to care for mothers and babies.
