The administration of Wheaton College just chose to cower before a horde of rage-posting progressive alums mad that their alma mater had dared congratulate and pray for a former grad recently appointed to the Trump administration. Like Pontius Pilate before them, Wheaton tried to wash their hands to appear sophisticated to the world. It worked out for them like it did for him.

The ongoing audit of the USAID agency is revealing a litany of wasteful spending that would be hilarious if it wasn't so outrageous (I mean, $8 million to study the effect of flavored cigarettes on bisexuals and lesbians?). There are only two reasons to oppose the Trump administration's efficiency crusade: either you are simply sworn to oppose anything Trump-related, or you are angry about losing a global progressive indoctrination slush fund. Neither is becoming for the left.

Christians are to love their neighbor, Jesus said so. That means Christians can't support the effort to deport criminal illegal aliens, right? While that's what some progressive believers are saying, approaching the issue biblically, humbly, and charitably towards others tells us something different.

Donald Trump broke from tradition and held his second inauguration indoors. Plenty of theories exist as to what his real motivation was in making the change, but I think I know. Beyond that, Trump's speech was perhaps the most focused, articulate, and impressive speech he's ever given. Let's talk about the most memorable moments.

Far too much of Los Angeles now sits in ash and rubble. Leaders there are blaming everything from climate change to unmanageable, catastrophic, natural winds. For a movement so convinced that government can do so much to improve our lives, there's a stunning willingness to pretend that these fires were beyond the ability of man to control and manage. What L.A. reveals is the utter failure of the progressive vision.

When he passed away recently, New Testament scholar Richard Hays left a gift for those who deny the authority of Scripture relating to human sexuality. Hays "repented" of his belief that homosexuality was sinful and advocated for affirming LGBT relationships. Let's just not overlook his reasoning...that reveals the heart of this issue.

Moments into 2025 a terrorist attack in New Orleans gutted Americans. With that on our minds, here's a look at what Christians should be praying for MORE of in this new year, as well as a look at what we should be praying to see evaporate from our culture.

After another school shooting, no one should be surprised the politicians are posturing, the interest groups are raising money, the rest of us are choosing sides, as victim families are grieving. At some point we might want to swallow our pride, admit we don’t have any easy answers, and actually concentrate on school security. The situation is serious, so let’s be blunt.

It may be difficult, but it's still reasonable to feel a little sorry for all the people in media who stuck their necks out defending President Biden's personal integrity and devotion to the rule of law when he originally said he would not pardon his son Hunter. Now that the pardon is complete, let's understand who this man is and why going back on his word is the least surprising thing he could have done.

It is sad beyond words how many people fall victim to the disordering of loves. That is, putting things of far less importance (like the temporary leader of one branch of the American federal government) above things of far greater importance like family relationships. The "experts" on MSNBC, and one side of the political aisle have had their say about the worth of family, let's let God have His say.
