New NCAA Boss Shrugs Off Outrage over Girls' Sports in House Hearing
by Suzanne Bowdey
For someone who's been on the job for 10 months, NCAA President Charlie Baker certainly doesn't seem to have a grasp of the important issues. While the biggest battle in modern sports boils over on campuses across the country, the former Massachusetts governor was shockingly blithe about the threat to girls' teams and privacy in his latest trip to Congress.

by Sarah Holliday
As I walked through the snowy streets of Washington D.C. this morning, each step brought me closer to where thousands gathered for the 51st annual March for Life.

A People of the News: Evangelicals, Politics, and the Media
by Jared Bridges
It's that time again. The time when evangelical Christians are all over the news for all the wrong reasons. No, it's not due to scandal (although evangelicals have sadly had their fair share), but it's also not it because they possess a life changing message about God, reality, and the human condition.

by Sarah Holliday
In January of 2023, WPATH had 4,119 global members. Within a year, however, membership dropped more than 60%, with only 1,590 members remaining as of January 2024. U.S. membership alone, which constitutes as 78% of the global membership, dropped from 3,104 to 1,234.

The Bible Calls Us to Pursue Both Holiness and Love, Not One or the Other
by Sarah Holliday
The concept of "religion vs. relationship" is something we bring up in evangelism all the time. It's meant to emphasize that one can be religious without ever developing a real relationship with God, which is very important to share with an unbeliever. However, I believe it's just as important to remind the believer of this exact same truth.
