Rabbi Shlomo Amar believes recent earthquakes in Israel are a direct result of the rise of LGBTQ rights. And federal judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a noted Christian, could issue a preliminary injunction soon in a case that could temporarily halt over half of the legal abortions in America today. Both issues speak to how people of faith affect culture. Today, let’s ask how Christians can and should work...

The US Energy Department has concluded that the COVID-19 pandemic most likely originated with a laboratory leak. But why don’t we know for sure? In eleven days, the COVID-19 pandemic will officially reach its third anniversary. Why is this debate still raging? These questions point to cultural realities that go beyond the pandemic and relate directly to the intersection of our faith with our world...

Tim Tebow’s recent “Night to Shine” event for people with special needs and the end of the Asbury Revival services both point to St. Augustine’s famous quote that God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.

As the war between Russia and Ukraine officially turns a year old today, a popular question among many is whether we are witnessing the start of World War III. However, with joint military exercises between Russia and China, as well as reports that Iran could be on the verge of becoming a nuclear power, Eastern Europe is hardly the only front that bears watching. And there’s an important lesson in...

When the war in Ukraine began, many believed Russia would achieve a swift victory. However, the fact that the war will be a year old tomorrow proves the courage, trust, and persistence of the Ukrainian people—characteristics that should encourage and inspire Christians in today’s culture.

As the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine comes this Friday, many are asking if this is a new Cold War or even the beginning of World War III. After a year, what do we now know about the conflict? What can we predict for the future? Sir Lawrence Freedman offers insight into the classic warfare vs. total warfare tactics each side has taken.

The ongoing revival at Asbury University drew an estimated 15,000–20,000 people over the weekend. Revival services have begun at Samford University in Alabama, Cedarville University in Ohio, and Lee and Belmont Universities in Tennessee. Students have gathered at Baylor University in Texas to pray for revival. Over twenty college campuses have been affected so far. True revival begins when we want...

President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv today and walked with Volodymyr Zelensky ahead of the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. And, as we celebrate Presidents’ Day today, one historian asserts that George Washington would have hated it. Therein lies a lesson in power and humility.

It is estimated that roughly 50,000 more babies will be born each year as a result of the decision to overturn Roe v Wade last July. If current trends hold, many of them will grow up to become deeply distressed teens and adults. So what can Christians do to help? We can start by changing the way we see those our culture might consider to be a burden. Author: Ryan Denison, PhD Narrator: Chris Elkin...

Going to church lowers your risk of a “death of despair” related to suicide, drug overdose, or alcohol poisoning. That fact is related to why people are experiencing a revival at Asbury University and why the writer of Hebrews exhorts Christians not to neglect meeting together as a church.

As winners of Super Bowl LVII, the Kansas City Chiefs had to overcome three “curses.” Plus, there are fascinating parallels between watching American football and participating in American religion.

“How did the greatest love story in history become known as a hate group?” Such questions motivate those behind the ministry called He Gets Us and, if you haven't seen their ads or billboards yet, the Super Bowl this Sunday night will offer the perfect chance to change that. But what is He Gets Us and why do they plan on investing a billion dollars in such campaigns over the next three years?...

According to American intelligence officials, China’s spy balloon program is part of a global surveillance effort to collect information on the military capabilities of countries around the world. Such a brazen act reveals the fact that laws do not have the intrinsic power to change character. So, individually, how can we truly act morally?

President Biden gave his State of the Union address last night. Historically, State of the Union addresses rarely affect a president’s public standing, yet millions still watch. Why? The answer is relevant far beyond last night’s speech.  Author: Jim Denison, PhD Narrator: Chris Elkins Subscribe: http://www.denisonforum.org/subscribe Read The Daily Article: https://www.denisonforum.org/daily-artic...

For $10, the San Antonio Zoo will name a cockroach after your ex and feed it to an animal. But there are more dramatic examples of the enmity invading our culture, like the 77 percent of Americans who say our country’s partisan divide is deeper now than before the pandemic. As Christians, we are called to know Christ and make him known—but we too often settle for knowing about Christ rather than s...

The bird flu strain H5N1 has been infecting minks in Spain—unprecedented for mammals—and could signify the start of a deadlier pandemic than Covid-19. Naturally, our fight-or-flight response kicks in on hearing such news. This response has enormous spiritual implications as well.

The old cliché that something went “the way of the dodo” could soon have a very different meaning. Scientists at Colossal Biosciences in Austin, Texas, are currently working to resurrect the bird that has become synonymous with extinction, and if your mind is trending toward Jurassic Park flashbacks as you read, you’re not too far off base. Their approach reminds us that sometimes the best way to...

Tom Brady retired from the NFL for the second time yesterday. It would seem that Brady was no longer satisfied with the direction of his life and career, which makes him an outlier in our society. According to Gallup, 85 percent of Americans are satisfied with their personal lives. This contrasts with only 23 percent who are satisfied with the direction of their country. What explains this wide di...

Georgia police officer Jacob Kersey resigned from his position after being suspended for having posted a message to Facebook about his biblical stance on marriage. Kersey explained his response: “My integrity and Christian beliefs are at the core of who I am, and I will not abandon them.” His example is the opposite of what some Christians may do in succumbing to cultural pressure to privatize our...

The White House announced yesterday that the US plans to end the coronavirus public health emergency on May 11. However, The World Health Organization is also currently monitoring nine “priority diseases” that pose the greatest public health risk, including “Disease X,” defined as “a serious international epidemic [that] could be caused by a pathogen currently unknown to cause human disease.” The...

A golden, eight-foot female sculpture wearing Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s signature lace collar now stands over the state courthouse in New York City. According to the New York Times , the sculptor titled her work “NOW” because “it was needed ‘now,’ at a time when women’s reproductive rights were under siege after the US Supreme Court in June overturned the constitutional right to...

January 27 is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It was designated as such by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005 to mark the date when the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated sixty years prior. But while nations around the world will set aside time today to remember those who died, the proper form of that remembrance remains a matter of some debate. And, as one museu...

Pope Francis made headlines this week when he told the Associated Press that “being homosexual isn’t a crime.” However, Francis also called homosexuality a sin, though that quote was buried later in the article. If secular media can quote religious leaders in ways that appear to support an LGBTQ agenda, many will do so. This strategy consequently makes it harder for Christians who support biblical...
