Is Destructive Socialism In America’s Future? Not If We Reclaim Our Past

Last week, headlines were filled with reports of socialist candidates gaining ground in major American cities. Fifty years ago, that would have been almost unimaginable. Today, however, socialism is becoming an increasingly influential force within the Democratic Party. Is this America’s future? Perhaps we can find the answer by revisiting the course set by America’s Founders. In fact, it reaches back before the founding itself. In 1630, John Winthrop described the Massachusetts Bay Colony as “a city upon a hill.” He envisioned a people who understood they lived under a covenantal responsibility before God, a vision that profoundly shaped the character of the future nation.

The Real ‘American Dream’ Of George Washington Was Far More God-Honoring Than Many Have Been Led To Believe

Washington personally read the Bible and quoted the Bible. Those who deny America’s unique Christian roots will claim that many educated people in positions of prominence in the 18th century also quoted from the Bible. However, they also quoted from Greek and Roman authors of antiquity. Washington quoted almost exclusively from the Bible and applied its teachings to his personal life and role as a leader. The real American dream is far more God-honoring than what we have today. The true American patriot is working and praying that Washington’s vision for America will once again claim the hearts of Americans.

Can We Still Ask God To Bless America When So Much Of The Culture Is In Open Opposition To Him?

Christians are under the kingship of Jesus first and foremost, but that does not negate the responsibilities of our earthly citizenship. We can make a difference in our own sphere of influence by being faithful where God gives us opportunities, and if every Christian did that, think how any country would change! We can still pray for God to bless America, but we should specifically pray for God to turn Americans’ hearts back to him and to recognize his authority in all the areas where the culture has increasingly rejected him.

Will America Last Another 250 Years?

Looking back, there can be no denying that God has indeed shed His grace—His unmerited favor—on our land, from sea to shining sea. But does our national “soul” encourage self-control? Do our laws champion ordered liberty? Is our success tempered with nobleness? Is brotherhood the defining characteristic of any good we aspire to reflect? By all of those measures, America seems decidedly adrift. We are drifting farther and farther from Nature’s God—the Ruler of the Universe our Founders called upon and credited with for our celebrated independence.

Beneath The Surface: The Spiritual Battlefield Surrounding The Nation of Israel

In a staggering reversal, the self-proclaimed master negotiator gave in to virtually every demand of the Iranian regime. What the world witnessed was not the art of the deal; it was the art of the kneel. How does a man of such immense worldly confidence suffer such an absolute, sudden collapse of resolve? The answer does not lie in the realm of political strategy, economic leverage, diplomatic maneuvering or even secular psychology. President Donald Trump stepped into a room to negotiate a political contract, completely unaware that he was stepping onto a spiritual battlefield of an intense, ancient war.

Our Founders Unashamedly Endorsed A Recognition That The Affairs Of Men Are Subject To God’s Overarching Authority

I was alive in 1976, when America celebrated its bicentennial. Now, just fifty years later, many in our own country would rather denounce than celebrate our national heritage. Their scorn is heaped highest on the faith foundations our Founders unashamedly endorsed: reverence for God, respect for the Savior, and a recognition that the affairs of men are subject to His overarching authority. We’ve come a long way—in the wrong direction.

The Dual Citizenship: What It Means To Be An Ambassador For Christ In Culture Where Biblical Truth Is Under Attack

This spiritual war between truth and lies is being waged in the hearts and minds of people, particularly in the church. Too many Christians are being shaped by the culture rather than being shaped by the Savior and the Scripture. They are compromised when it comes to the core teaching of the Christian faith. Too many churches are throwing in the towel when it comes to the culture wars and social issues. Too many pastors are compromising their calling in the pulpit, watering down their messages from the infallible Word of God for fear of offending. There are two problems with that. Number one, people are offended too easily these days; and number two, the Bible is offensive because it speaks absolute truth for all generations.

Thomas Jefferson’s ‘Separation Of Church And State’ Never Meant Keeping God Out Of Government

In context, it’s clear this wall of separation was not created to keep religion out of the State. It was simply intended to protect religious freedom and to place boundaries on the State’s control over the Church. In fact, the United States Capitol served as a church building for seven decades and Jefferson himself was a regular attendee. He attended so faithfully that he earned a reserved seat. On the Sunday after he wrote the letter to the Danbury Baptists, he attended church services at the still-under-construction Capitol.

Major Implications: The Unholy Alliance Of Islamists And Socialists Is Careening Toward The Halls Of Congress

America's largest city, our financial capital, is in deep trouble—and what is happening in New York City right now could have major implications for every American. What we are seeing is an unholy alliance of Islamists and socialists rising to political power. These anti-American radicals are no longer just fringe rabble-rousers and street agitators—they are now heading to the halls of Congress.

America: Born Out Of A Struggle And Firmly Established On The Word Of God

The New England colonies, as well as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, were all founded by settlers who crossed the Atlantic Ocean to flee religious persecution in Great Britain and build a society firmly established on the Word of God. Even as the dawn of American exceptionalism—rooted in Biblical values—gave birth to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the struggle raged on. Why did these fledgling colonists prevail in the American Revolutionary War against an English monarchy that had existed for more than 700 years? Because America’s Founding Fathers recognized God as the guarantor of our most precious rights.

It Doesn’t Take A Brain Surgeon To See Through Iran’s Strategy In Lebanon… So Why Is America Putting Up With It?

Israel has pounded Hezbollah and left it in tatters. Iran knows that Hezbollah is in very big trouble and badly wants to save the crown jewel of its proxy network. The regime not only demanded to have Lebanon included in the Memorandum of Understanding that was signed by President Trump last week, but also ordered Hezbollah to continue attacking Israel. The Jewish State gets the blame when it responds, and the U.S. then calls for Israeli restraint. Do you see how this works?

What Happens When The Biblical Literacy That Shaped America’s Founding Disappears?

The Bible shaped how Americans understood freedom, law, covenant, human dignity, and self-government. Even those who were not orthodox Christians were influenced by the biblical worldview that permeated colonial America. But what happens when that biblical literacy disappears? A nation that forgets its story loses its identity. And when a people lose their identity, they become fragmented. That is precisely what Huntington warned about. Americans increasingly identify themselves by race, class, political ideology, or special interest rather than by a common national story. The consequences of this loss of historical memory extend beyond America’s understanding of itself.

Israel’s Existence Is Not Predicated On Who Sits In The Oval Office

As the Bible profoundly declares, Israel’s existence is not predicated on who sits in the Oval Office, whether its enemies acquire weapons of mass destruction, or its popularity on the world scene. The Jewish State exists today by the sovereign hand and authority of God, who promised to regather the Jews into their ancestral homeland for “His Holy name’s sake” and protect them from ever being uprooted again. Israel's survival is as divinely guaranteed as the prophetic words of God who swore to restore them as a nation. The same can not be said for the United States.

The Iran Deal Leaves A Regime Standing That Fired Ballistic Missiles On My Children… Forgive Me If I Don’t Stand Up And Clap

My family spent weeks, like everyone else in Israel, listening for rocket alerts that went off day and night. I had to learn the geography of my own neighborhood in a brand new way. I know where the bomb shelters are. I know if my kids want to go to the park, to ensure that there is a fortified concrete shelter within a 90-second radius. Can you imagine that? The deal that's being celebrated may buy everyone in America 25 cents cheaper gas, but it's going to leave a regime standing that fired ballistic missiles on my children at two o'clock in the morning.

If America Empowers A Regime That Openly Calls For Israel’s Destruction, There Will Be Significant Consequences

There is also a biblical dimension that many Christians will immediately recognize. Genesis 12:3 records God’s promise to Abraham: ” I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you.” That principle has never been revoked. God’s covenant relationship with Israel remains intact. Any policy that strengthens Israel’s enemies while weakening Israel’s security should concern Christians who take Scripture seriously. This is not simply a matter of foreign policy. It is also a matter of biblical recompense for foolish actions that jeopardize Israel and the West.

Trump, Iran, And Israel’s Place In Future Bible Prophecy

I do not know what will happen in the coming days, weeks, and months in the war between Israel and Iran. But with history as our guide, we know that Iran will not give up on its desire to acquire nuclear weapons nor its desire to destroy Israel. With Scripture as our guide, we know the Persian state’s desire to inflict as much terror as possible on the Jewish state will not end until the Lord destroys it.

The Bottom Line: You Cannot Make Any Sort Of Credible Deal With A Modern-day Nazi Death Cult

President Trump seems to have had enough. Over the past two months, he has shown extraordinary patience in negotiating with Iran and trying to close a deal that would end the war. Even though Iran's regime violated the ceasefire time after time, attacking U.S. bases and our allies in the region, the president maintained that Iran wanted a deal and that progress was being made. Yet, something seemed to shift earlier this week when Iran shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz.

A Time To Act: Is Now The Moment For Netanyahu To Declare A New ‘Independence Day’ For Israel

President Trump says that Prime Minister Netanyahu will accept whatever deal his administration makes. Maybe, maybe not. Netanyahu could see the approaching November midterm elections in America and even Israeli elections in October, and declare that this is the moment for a new Israeli Independence Day. Netanyahu knows that there is a growing number of congressmembers who want to reduce Israel's dependence on the United States. Both the Prime Minister and Israel as a whole agree. In 1948, independence meant Israel would become a country—a new Independence Day means Israel gets to hit, and hit back hard, against any threat that thinks Israel shouldn't be one.

I Believe The President Has Earned The Benefit Of The Doubt When It Comes To Iran

For all the commentary and hot takes over the long holiday weekend about a potential Iran deal, here's the bottom line: We still don't know what exactly an agreement will contain. But here's what we do know up front. During his first term, President Trump pulled out of the disastrous Iran nuclear deal that was negotiated by former President Barack Obama. It seems very unlikely that he would sign on to a new agreement that repeats Obama's mistakes. I believe the President has earned the benefit of the doubt when it comes to Iran. Over his two terms in office, he's made all the right moves against the regime.

Claiming That Israel Is Not An Ally Overlooks Both Practical Realities And Deeper Convictions

Claiming that Israel is not an ally overlooks both practical realities and deeper convictions. From a biblical perspective, Israel is not just another nation. It is part of a larger story, one that continues to shape how many people understand faith, history, and the world today.

Disturbing Hostility: Universities Are Training Young Americans To Stamp Out Free Speech

The specific findings from the survey are more disturbing than the grades themselves. According to the report, one in three students now believes violence is sometimes acceptable to stop a campus speech. While students themselves are willing to silence perspectives they dislike, they believe they’re behaving consistently with what they see. Only 36 percent of students believe their administration would protect speech it found offensive. 

Iran’s Apocalyptic Regime Rejects Trump’s Final Offer As Operation Intensifies

Iran's regime has officially rejected a ceasefire proposal from the United States. President Trump had given Iran until Tuesday to accept, making very clear that it is his final offer. Yet Iran's apocalyptic Islamic regime has opted to continue its jihad against the U.S. and Israel, just as it has for 47 years.

Courtesy Of The US And Israel, A Collection Of Butchers, Jihadists, And Modern-Day Nazis, Are Now Facing Judgment

The regime's leadership is being taken out one by one. In just 19 days since Operation Epic Fury began, Iran's Air Force, Navy, and missile defenses have all been destroyed. Its ballistic missile and drone launches have also plummeted. The US and Israel, working side by side, are completely obliterating Iran's entire military and terror infrastructure in stunning fashion. President Trump posted on Wednesday that "the world's number one state sponsor of terrorism" is being put "out of business."

How Far The West Has Fallen: When Confronted With A Modern-Day Nazi Regime, Europe Declares It ‘Would Rather Not Get Involved’

To get an idea of just how far the West has fallen, compare the current US military operation against Iran to the effort to defeat Nazi Germany during World War II. Today, the free world is facing a modern-day Nazi death cult in the form of Iran's regime. You would think the entire free world would unite to eliminate this existential threat, just as it did during World War II—but 2026 is not 1941.

America’s Friendship With Israel Is Not Simply A ‘Political Issue,’ It Is A Profoundly Biblical One

The historic partnership between the United States and Israel during Operation Epic Fury has been a sight to see. Analysts are describing the blitz against the Iranian regime as “one of the most coordinated Allied operations in modern warfare.” The deep friendship Israel holds with the Trump administration has been a game-changer in the Middle East, one that stands in sharp contrast to others that came before.

A Turning Point In The Battle Against Global Jihad

Mark your calendar and remember the events of this month. March 2026 will go down as a turning point in the battle against global jihad. The United States and Israel are currently in the midst of a crucial operation to destroy the undisputed kingpins of Islamic terror, the Iranian regime. There is concern that the regime could try to activate cells in the United States as well. March 2026 has already been a very memorable month for jihad in America, and for all the wrong reasons.

Trump Should Be Commended For Acting Against Iran — Not Because It Was Popular, But Because It Was Justified

If there has been a justifiable war since World War II, this may be it. This is not defending oil-rich countries made wealthy by American dependence. This is confronting a direct threat to our security and to that of our natural ally, Israel. President Trump should be commended for taking the regime at its word and responding — not because it was politically popular, but because it was justified, militarily and morally.

DOJ Arrests 25 In Minnesota Church Disruption, Vows Zero Tolerance for Attacks on Worship

Bondi said the Justice Department unsealed a new indictment charging 30 additional people over what prosecutors described as a coordinated “takeover-style attack” on the church. She emphasized that more arrests are expected. “You cannot attack a house of worship,” Bondi wrote, pledging that those responsible would be found and prosecuted. She added that the Department of Justice “stands for Christians and all Americans of faith.”

‘State-Sanctioned Kidnapping’: 16 States Called On SCOTUS To ‘Intervene To Secure Parental Rights Nationwide’

This isn’t just a Washington problem. As some see it, this is a warning to every state. If left unchecked, this radical experiment in government-sponsored family separation could spread, encouraging more states to treat parents as obstacles rather than the first and best line of defense for their children. The coalition of 16 states is standing united for the timeless truth that parents, not bureaucrats or activist shelters, know what is best for their sons and daughters.

Defending Western Civilization Is Not Bigotry, It’s Wisdom

Western Civilization is not an ethnicity. It’s not a genetic inheritance passed down through European bloodlines or a cultural preference for pastries and Bach. It is, at its core, a set of ideas about human dignity and the purpose of government; all men are created equal and endowed by their creator with inalienable rights that precede government itself. Because of this, the West determined that good government would serve the individual when the historical norm was that people served their government. The result has been unprecedented freedom and prosperity, but it still has serious competition.

If Religious Liberty Becomes Only A Defensive Battle, We Risk Narrowing The Focus Purely To Survival

Here is the question we need to ask: Is hostility toward religious exercise expanding beyond vandalism and threats — and becoming institutional resistance? We have seen increasing pressure on conscience protections in health care. We have seen faith-based adoption and foster care providers forced out of states for adhering to biblical truth. We have watched regulatory agencies treat religious organizations not as partners in civil society, but as obstacles to ideological agendas.

A Call To Prayer: At The End Of The Day, When Godly Wisdom Leads, We All Benefit

Instead of simply offering criticism, let’s lift them up in prayer—asking God to protect them, guide them, and give them the wisdom they need to lead well. Because at the end of the day, when godly wisdom leads, we all benefit. Pray for our president. Pray for our nation. And pray that we would continue to be one nation under God!

After 251 Years Of Ties, US Secretary of War Cuts Military Relationship With Harvard Over ‘Globalist And Radical Ideologies’

“Today, this university, with such a unique history, which receives billions of our federal tax dollars, is one of the red-hot centers of ‘Hate America’ activism,” Hegseth averred, after detailing Harvard’s historical ties to the U.S. military. He contrasted the Harvard that served as a military base for George Washington during the Revolutionary War against the Harvard of today, which vilifies the military and penalizes patriotism."

Politics And The Church: The Stunning Biblical Backing For Christian Influence On Government

Influencing government for good on the basis of the wisdom found in God’s own words is a theme that runs through the entire Bible. Try to imagine what a nation and its government would be like if all Christian influence on government were suddenly removed—if all the churches and all the Christians in a society stopped seeking to have any kind of influence on laws or on government. Within a few years, most people would have no moral authority beyond that of individual human opinion. How could a nation find any moral guidance?

Fear Of Accountability Prompts Reversal From Medical Groups On Child Gender Procedures

For years, a growing body of international research has warned against these interventions. Finland, Sweden, and England all reevaluated and restricted pediatric gender treatments after reviewing outcomes data. In May of last year, even the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services acknowledged that the evidence supporting medical intervention for minors was weak at best. So why the change now? Was it the accumulation of research showing not only a lack of benefit, but demonstrable harm? That’s literally the two-million-dollar question.

President Trump At The National Prayer Breakfast: ‘Quite Simply, Prayer Is America’s Superpower’

“Almost 250 years after our founding fathers took one of the greatest leaps of faith in human history … [the] faith of the American people remains unbroken. It actually became stronger than ever. And it reminds us that prayers strengthen, prayers heal, prayer empowers, and prayer saves. Quite simply, prayer is America’s superpower. It really is a superpower. And it always has been, and it always will be.”

Asian Policy Analyst: China ‘Does Not Have The Power’ To Oppose US Action Against Iran

"China has been supporting Iran almost across the board. I don't think Iran (through Hamas) could have attacked Israel on October 7th, 2023, without China's backing,” states Chang. “You got to remember that China takes either 80% or 90% of Iran's exports of crude depending on the year, and that is a critical financial lifeline for the theocratic regime in Tehran."

Board Of Peace: Behind The Language Of Reconstruction And Prosperity Lies A Very Real Danger

Its stated purpose is ambitious: transform Gaza into a modern, high-tech metropolis—an economic engine meant to replace war with development. But behind the language of reconstruction and prosperity lies a critical question prophecy watchers must ask: Is this structure truly protecting Israel—or is it positioning the nations to control Israel through internationalized “peace”?

Is Sharia Law Compatible With The U.S. Constitution Or Biblical Values?

The U.S. Constitution is grounded in the idea that government power must be limited and that individual rights come from God, not the state. The First Amendment protects religious liberty by forbidding the establishment of any religion while guaranteeing free exercise. Sharia law directly contradicts this principle because it is a religious legal code that merges faith and government. Where Sharia is enforced, religious belief is regulated and Islamic law is elevated above civil law. A system that mandates religious obedience cannot coexist with a Constitution that protects freedom of conscience.

In-Depth: The Iranian Protesters May Have Ignited A Firestorm, But Will The Regime Be Reduced To Ashes?

Decapitation or capitulation? Does Trump lop off the Islamist head of the regime or continue to exert maximum pressure to force behavioral change? Any viable strategy must take into account the nature of the ayatollah’s regime. Pride, ideology, and survival define it. An outcome perceived as outright defeat would be intolerable. Any loss must therefore be framed – however implausibly – as victory, or the regime will be unable to accept it or survive internally. Scripture reminds us that pride goes before destruction, yet pride also blinds leaders to reality.

Only The Tip Of The Iceberg: Somalia’s UN Ambassador Linked to Fraud Scandal Enveloping Minnesota

As to the full breadth of the scandal, “we’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg so far,” Adams emphasized. “But Americans can have confidence that we’re going to uncover the size and magnitude of this, and we’re going to do everything we can to return those dollars back to hard working Americans.”

A Foundation of Scripture: The Founding Fathers Passed A Torch; Modern Americans Would Do Well Not To Let It Go Out

To most of America’s founding fathers, the Bible was true from beginning to end, and it was the only source upon which to establish the new, independent nation. However, with the advent of conjectures and hypotheses that undermined how people viewed the Bible’s history, its moral authority began to erode. Without the Bible’s absolute moral truths guiding the American people, the institution undergirded by this authority and designed to govern them will falter.

Trump Admin Launches Prayer Campaign To Celebrate Nation’s Founding: ‘Let Us Rededicate Ourselves To One Nation Under God’

The call to pray is a priority for evangelical Christians, who know that prayer must be true prayer, prayed in the Name of Jesus to the one true God. During a meeting of the Trump-appointed Religious Liberty Commission, held at the Museum of the Bible in early September, Scott Turner, U.S. secretary of Housing and Urban Development and a Southern Baptist minister, cast the vision for “America Prays” and said more than 70 faith organizations had already joined the initiative.

The Freedom Of Churches To Speak Up On Politics, And The Lawsuit That Could Bring The Issue Before The Supreme Court

Supreme Court justices may have an opportunity in 2026 to affirm the First Amendment rights of churches to advise congregants of the biblical perspective on major public policy issues in political campaigns and to provide information on the stands taken on those issues by candidates for elective office at all levels of government.

Trump Administration Speaks Out As Woman Becomes First In The UK To Face Criminal Charges For Silent Prayer

“The decision to prosecute a woman engaged in silent prayer is not only concerning in terms of its impact on respect for the fundamental freedoms of expression and religion or belief, but is also an unwelcome departure from the shared values that ought to underpin U.S.–U.K. relations... We are monitoring Isabel’s case closely. It is common sense that standing silently and offering conversation should not constitute harm."

America’s History With Israel And What Lies Ahead

Over the years, Republicans and Democrats have shown both support for Israel and distaste for it. Pro-Jewish history runs side by side with virulent anti-Semitism. Yet despite these problems, Jewish people always have called America the Goldina Medina, Yiddish for the “Golden Land,” because they have been allowed to flourish here. So what is America’s future?

The Prophetic Significance Of Socialism’s Rise In America

The rise of Socialism has profound implications for the future of our nation and, given the fact that America is the global leader, it also has ramifications for the entire globe. It's nothing short of meteoric. However, beyond those concerns, the popularity of Socialism also has strong prophetic overtones that I believe will pave the way for the rise of the world's final great tyrant: the antichrist.

The War On Drugs: The Real Battle Is Not Merely On The Seas… Its In The Spiritual Condition Of America

If the war on drugs is ever to succeed, its focus must move beyond the criminal suppliers to the broken users who sustain the market. Reducing demand is essential, and that responsibility extends far beyond government. Drug use is fueled by social breakdown — family instability, isolation, peer pressure, economic despair, glamorizing media, and weakened institutions — and most prominently, spiritual emptiness that leaves individuals without purpose and hope.

As Islam Terrorizes Europe, The Left Resists Trump’s Efforts To Protect America From The Same Future

Trump's team is tracking down and deporting the many bad actors who entered America under the previous administration. Those deportations, along with Trump's vow to shut down immigration from places like Somalia and Afghanistan, has sent the left into a tizzy. Apparently, Democrats want to turn America into Western Europe, where mass Muslim immigration and lax border security are the norms. How is that working out for the Europeans?

A Monumental Power-Shift In The White House: America’s Recognition Of Israel Was Entirely God Orchestrated

Roosevelt's presidency would be cut short by a fatal cerebral hemorrhage. The Presidential term, which stretched to 1949, would be handed over to another. His death placed Vice President Harry Truman in the position of Commander-in-Chief for the remainder of the term, during which time, the hour of decision would come for the United States regarding a Jewish State. The decision would not be uncomplicated, sparking a firestorm in Washington, DC.

US Policy Helped Create The Conditions For Oct 7… New Seeds Of A ‘Two-State Solution’ Could Yield An Even Darker Harvest

In the aftermath of that horrific day on Oct. 7, I walked through a kibbutz where walls were spattered with the blood of women and children. I stood at the site of the Nova music festival and felt the weight of knowing that American policy decisions helped create the conditions that allowed such evil to flourish. I led the delegation I was with in a prayer of repentance for what America allowed. I am determined not to remain silent while new seeds are being planted that could yield an even darker harvest.

From Nigeria to New York, Islamic Ideology Is Forcibly Working To Gain Ground

The first was the largely underreported, if not unreported, news in the mainstream media about the horrific slaughtering of Christians in the country of Nigeria. The second event was the result of the mayoral election in New York City, where Democratic Socialist and Muslim adherent, Zohran Mamdani, succeeded in his campaign to become the next leader of one of America’s largest cities, often viewed as the shining beacon of capitalism. While these two circumstances might seemingly appear unrelated, there exists one prominent point of connection that is shared by both – Islam.

Reported Plans For A US Base In Southern Israel — The Regional And Prophetic Implications

There are credible reports that the United States is considering constructing a massive military base in southern Israel to oversee the ceasefire and implementation of the Trump administration-brokered 20-point peace plan. This is an unprecedented development for the United States, Israel, and the Middle East—and it has regional, geopolitical, and, I believe, prophetic implications.

The Battle Over Israel Tears Its Way Through The Republican Party

When people called on Heritage to cut ties with Carlson, Roberts made an angry video defending the interview in no uncertain terms. Conservatives across America condemned him and the foundation. So, he tried to walk it back. Roberts pointed out that, under his leadership, Heritage had started something called Project Esther, meant to combat antisemitism. But after his video, several members of that team resigned. Then, after his “apology,” even more of them quit.

As Communism Gains Ground, Trump Renews America’s ‘National Promise’ To Oppose ‘One Of History’s Most Destructive Ideologies’

"New voices now repeat old lies, cloaking them in the language of 'social justice' and 'democratic socialism,' yet their message remains the same: give up your freedom, place your trust in the power of the government, and trade the promise of prosperity for the empty comfort of control," he cautioned. "America rejects this evil doctrine."

Obergefell’s Days Are Numbered; We Must Pray, Fight, And Contend Until It Is Overturned

Obergefell is legal fiction pulled out of thin air that jeopardizes the religious liberty of countless Americans who believe in God’s definition of marriage. Obergefell’s days are numbered, and we will not rest until it is overturned. Until then, we must pray, fight, and contend for when Obergefell is no longer the law of the land.

The Leaders And Policies We Elect Mirror The Moral State Of Our Nation

Every election season, Americans send policies to the halls of government. Voters argue about taxes, foreign policy and healthcare. Yet, beneath the noise of campaign rallies and political advertisements lies a sobering truth: The leaders we elect are mirrors of the people who put them in power. Our government, in many ways, is a spiritual reflection of our collective moral condition.

What Is Sin?: Barna Study Reveals ‘Dramatic Shift In The Nation’s Moral Compass’

According to a new study from George Barna’s Cultural Research Center, “Americans are changing their understanding and definition of ‘sin,’” which, the article says, “signals a dramatic shift in the nation’s moral compass and builds on earlier reports documenting widespread confusion about the existence and nature of sin.” Not surprisingly, younger generations showed more moral confusion than their older counterparts.

In The Wake Of Charlie Kirk’s Assassination, Are We Truly Witnessing A ‘Revival’?

Over the last few weeks, I have been repeatedly hearing one word in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and that word is "revival." My heart broke when I heard the news of Charlie’s passing, and my soul still mourns for him and the family he left behind; yet, out of such terrible darkness, it has been amazing to watch what the Lord has been doing across America and beyond in response to such a grievous tragedy.

Now More Than Ever, America Needs The Church To Be Both People Of Prayer And People Of Courage

Next year marks 250 years since the founding of the United States of America. Our nation has enjoyed two-and-a-half centuries of freedom, blessing and God’s providence. But sadly, we are not the nation we once were. We’ve drifted far from the Biblical principles that shaped our founding. Today, truth is under attack. Evil is called good, and good is called evil. And while the hour may be dark, I believe God is calling His people to wake up, not just to pray, but to stand.

A Contrast Along Political And Ideological Lines: Why America’s Response To Charlie Kirk’s Death Is So Telling

What could have become a lit fuse on a powder keg quickly turned into a contrast along political and ideological lines. No mass riots, or burned cities, or rampant violence ensued as Kirk’s supporters responded in outrage. Instead, those who appreciated Charlie Kirk’s bold assertion of Christian faith and Conservative policies held prayer vigils and peaceful tributes. It was the Left that could not help itself from heaping scorn on the murdered man and even celebrating his murder.

Escalating Hostility: Two North Carolina Churches Face Targeted Arson Attacks Overnight

Formerly, “we didn’t see this level of hostility, where they’re attacking and burning and even sometimes having these shootings that are taking place” in churches, said Perkins. “Unfortunately, we’ve seen a spike in attacks like these on churches over the past several years, as documented in FRC’s annual report.”

Charlie Kirk’s Assassination Sparks Surge In Bible Sales

After the assassination of Christian political activist Charlie Kirk, Bible sales surged in the U.S., adding to an already growing demand for Bibles among young and old.  September showed a 36% increase in Bible copy sales in comparison to September 2024. Some 2.4 million Bibles were sold in September 2025, up from 1.5 million in August. Through August, each month in 2025 had ranged between 1.2 to 1.6 million sold, book tracker Circana BookScan found.

Do They Really Stand Against ‘Occupiers’ Or Is It Just Jews And Christians They Hate?

The woke say they stand against “occupiers” and those who try to “erase” indigenous people. But anti-Jew hatred has become so great that they freely use the name given to the land by occupying Romans who renamed it for the express purpose of erasing the Jews. Is their problem really with “occupiers” or is it just Jews and Christians they hate?

History And Scripture Alike Remind Us Why Peace Accords, Especially Releated To Israel, Are Always Temporary

Still, the pursuit of peace remains both right and necessary. Scripture calls us to it. Psalm 122:6 instructs, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” Our prayers and our policies should follow that call. Yet as we labor for peace, we must recognize that any peace forged by human hands will be temporary — imperfect and ever in need of vigilance and renewal.

Prayer: The Most Neglected Weapon In The American Arsenal Is The One Most Urgently Needed

As Christians, it isn’t enough to simply rely on political, military, or academic leaders to solve our nation’s problems or protect our freedoms. We need to recognize that the most powerful weapon at our disposal is the one faithfully proven to be effective time and again throughout the pages of Scripture.
