Request your choice of Wrestling with God today! Article Description Four astronauts aboard Artemis 2 are on their way home this morning. They broke the record for human travel on Monday afternoon, flying more than 248,655 miles from Earth and surpassing NASA’s Apollo 13 mission in 1970.

Last Friday, an American F-15E fighter jet was hit by incoming fire and crashed inside Iran. One of the two crew members was quickly rescued. According to the Wall Street Journal, what came next was “one of the most complex search-and-rescue efforts for the US Air Force in enemy territory in decades.” Sunday morning, President Trump announced that the “highly respected colonel” had been rescued an...

Delta Flight 104, with 272 passengers and 14 crew, had just departed São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport on Sunday when flames shot out from its left engine. Passengers screamed for the pilots to “turn around” the jet. They immediately declared an emergency, shut down the affected engine, and circled back to the airport, landing safely shortly after departure. Video from inside the cabin sho...

Recent studies show that eighty million Americans believe a spiritual revival is coming to our nation. Of those participating in the survey, young adults (statistically the most unchurched generation in history) are surprisingly the most likely to agree. Jennie Allen, founder of IF:Gathering and Gather25, said the desperation many young people feel is fueling their spiritual openness, recalling on...

The US Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that Colorado’s ban on LGBTQ “conversion therapy” for young people infringes on the free speech rights of a Christian counselor. Their ruling reversed a lower court’s decision that had upheld the law. However, the news is not all positive on the religious liberty front. But if you’re not a Christian counselor who seeks to share biblical truth with your clients or...

My wife and I drove past a “No Kings” rally in our city last Saturday, where we saw a sign that said, “Be kind!” Another announced in rainbow colors, “Love wins!” Next to them, paradoxically, a man was waving his hand-lettered whiteboard, “[expletive deleted] Trump!” This bipolarity is reflected and empowered by the media daily. As history proves and contemporary culture shows, we can be as dogmat...

Give today and receive your copy of Dr. Jim Denison’s Biblical Insight into Tough Questions vol 5 Article Description More than 3,200 “No Kings” rallies were held Saturday across the US. Event organizers estimate more than eight million people attended protests against President Donald Trump’s actions and policies. The name reportedly comes from organizers’ belief that Mr. Trump is acting like a m...

Article Description Earlier this week, a court in California ruled that Facebook’s parent company, Meta, and Google’s YouTube were liable for damages of $4.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively, after a 20-year-old woman sued the companies for creating products that she claims led to anxiety, depression, and a host of other problems in her life. What sets the latest suit apart is that these com...

Give today and receive your copy of Dr. Jim Denison’s Biblical Insight into Tough Questions vol 5 NASA has announced plans to construct a $20 billion base on the moon’s surface. The purpose is to install more powerful telescopes, mine elements that are rare on earth but abundant on the moon, and allow for further technological advancements through residual inventions, just as it was after our last...

We’re learning this morning that the US has sent Iran a fifteen-point plan to end the war in the Middle East. However, Israeli journalist Amit Segal reports that Israeli leaders fear the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) will undermine any agreement with the West. Yesterday’s announcement that Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, a former IRGC commander, will replace the slain Ali Larijani as head of...

According to the Los Angeles Times , West Hollywood’s city council has unanimously approved advancing what the article calls a “registry of multi-partner domestic relationships.” How does this affect you and me in our own lives? It is human nature to focus on issues that seem most relevant to us personally. This “fight-or-flight response” is our natural, automatic reaction to stress or danger. Jan...

Give today and receive your copy of Dr. Jim Denison’s Biblical Insight into Tough Questions vol 5 Both pilots were killed and dozens of people were injured late last night when an Air Canada Express jet collided with a fire truck while landing at New York’s LaGuardia Airport. Earlier in the day, I received news that my spiritual mother had passed away. Some deaths are tragic while others are cause...

Peter Thiel is drawing attention for hosting a Rome conference warning that technologies like AI could help usher in the Antichrist, even as critics accuse him of fueling fear around the end times. While concerns about global instability, war, and innovation are real, Scripture reminds us that “many antichrists have come” and that speculation about who the Antichrist might be is largely fruitless....

The legendary actor and comedian Dick Van Dyke recently became a centenarian. He explains his longevity simply: he keeps a positive outlook and never gets angry. Scientists agree with his theory. However, you and I didn’t need scientists to tell us what we innately understood, that happier people are typically healthier people. If only knowing and doing God’s will were so obvious and intuitive. In...

In April 2025, Pastor William Schonemann of New River Bible Chapel in Arizona was found dead inside his home in a position authorities described as resembling crucifixion. Last week, the man accused of killing the pastor asked a court to sentence him to death. He stated, “It’s an undisputable fact that the crime was heinous in nature. I intended it to be heinous.” Our faith does not exempt us from...

Israel’s defense minister announced this morning that its military killed top Iranian security official Ali Larijani in an overnight strike. In other news, the US embassy in Baghdad has been targeted by explosive drones, British Airways says it is suspending some flights to the Middle East until the end of May, and US gas prices are continuing to rise as a result of the war. However, much of the f...

“One Battle After Another” won the Academy Award for Best Picture last night, along with five other Oscars. The awards show prompted some reflections for me, which have less to do with the films themselves than with the experience of watching them. The best movies are often the most surprising, the ones with a plot twist we did not foresee, films that convey an unanticipated message that nonethele...

While the Trump Administration’s focus remains largely on the war in Iran, the president took some time earlier this week to address the situation with Cuba as well. Hinting that they may be next in line for regime change, he stated, “It may be a friendly takeover, it may not be a friendly takeover. It wouldn’t matter because they’re really, they’re down to, as I say, fumes.” Until a deal is reach...

People in the Northern Territory of Australia are being warned to stay out of rain-fueled rivers in their area because, as one official put it, “There are crocs absolutely everywhere.” If you pay much attention to secular culture, you might feel the same way about the moral issues of our time. One response is to align our beliefs with our critics, adopting the liberal theology we have been discuss...

The Iran war is now well into its second week and has involved at least twelve nations across the Middle East and beyond. But it also poses a threat to Americans with which most of us are not familiar. “Stagflation,” the combination of falling growth (stagnation) and rising prices (inflation), is a specter from the 1970s we don’t want to revisit. As the so-called First Law of Ecology states, “Ever...

Be a Denison Forum Frontline Partner Article Description The way Christians approach our faith and its relationship with the world is foundational to our understanding of the world and our role in it. James Talarico, who is a Presbyterian seminary student and thus considered a “Bible scholar” by some in the media, is advancing his liberal version of Christianity with regard to abortion, transgende...

James Talarico has become a national figure after winning the Texas Democratic Senate primary last week. His theological worldview has especially garnered attention. Talarico has stated that “Jesus never said anything” about abortion, transgenderism, or gay marriage. Talarico’s positions are consistent with a stream of theology often called “liberalism.” Where does it come from? How are we to unde...

Article Description President Trump announced yesterday afternoon that Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem would be reassigned to a new security initiative called The Shield of the Americas. While the move is not technically considered a demotion, the president’s frustrations with Noem have been growing for some time, with Tuesday’s hearing before the Senate Judiciary Commi...

Be a Denison Forum Frontline Partner Article Description ast night, the Pentagon released the last two names of the six US soldiers killed in a Kuwait attack a day after the US and Israel launched Operation Epic Fury. If Iran has its way, they will be only the first of many American deaths to come. The reason the Iranian regime wants to survive this war at all costs is not just personal, as selfis...

Be a Denison Forum Frontline Partner As Iran has expanded the war by targeting US allies in the Middle East, it is facing a consequence it apparently did not expect: the Wall Street Journal reports that “Gulf states, rattled by volleys of Iranian drones and missiles targeting their hotels, ports, and airports, are concluding the Iranian peril must be confronted.” However, there is a consequence to...
