Rebuild America's 'Spiritual Walls': Pro-Life Leaders React to Trump's Abortion Statement
by Ben Johnson
Pro-family leaders reacted to President Donald Trump's announcement that abortion policy should be handled exclusively by the states by saying that "pro-life policies should be pursued at every level of government" to rebuild "the spiritual walls of our nation." Although pro-life advocates expressed gratitude for the president's role in overturning Roe v. Wade and restoring voters' democratic control over the issue of abortion, they say his "work is not over" when it comes to protecting innocent life.

Outstanding - Ep. 87: Raided by the DEI: Mark Bauerlein on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Podcast with Joseph Backholm and Mark Bauerlein
Move over, CIA, FBI, and IRS. There's a new sheriff in town: DEI. Those three letters, representing diversity, equity, and inclusion, have become the three most important letters in many of our institutions. Higher learning is an especially affected causality in this quest to make everything equal, diverse, and included. Mark Bauerlein, a professor emeritus of English at Emory University, joins host Joseph Backholm to discuss the giant DEI cloud that has overtaken our universities and filtered out to everywhere.

Dawkins, Gangs, Fruit, and Judgment
by Joshua Arnold
Last weekend, Christianity received significant praise from an unexpected mouth: new-atheist scholar Richard Dawkins. "If I have to choose between Christianity and Islam, I choose Christianity every single time.

Survey: Women Are Leaving the Church Because of 'a Steady Accumulation of Negative Experiences'
by Sarah Holliday
In a society increasingly pushing liberal agendas, it's no surprise to see an accompanying escalation in disdain for biblical truth. With the rise of LGBT ideology alone, basic biology is under attack, marriage is mocked, and those who proclaim what Scripture says are labeled as hateful bigots. Jesus said in Matthew 10:22a, "And you will be hated by all for my name's sake," because those apart from Christ hate His objective, unchanging truth. And what do we see as a result of this? Well, in addition to the slander, we see that many choose to walk away from the church scene.
