| 28 Google Employees Fired for Disruptive, All-Day, Anti-Israel Protest |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| Some people are so intoxicated with their own self-importance and totalitarian transcendence of their own niche worldview that the only treatment is a cold, clear draft of reality. This trap snares not only Washington politicians (and their relatives) but often ordinary people working ordinary jobs - just ask the J6 defendants. Unfortunately, the infrequent consequences for outrageous misbehavior - especially for those on the political Left - have caused some to mistakenly conclude that their self-importance is accurate, and that there will be no consequences. And then, the hammer falls. |

| by S.A. McCarthy |

| The Largest Christian University in the U.S. Was Fined $37 Million. Coincidence or Targeted Attack? |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| A dust storm of political madness is brewing in Phoenix, Arizona as Grand Canyon University faces the continued threats of Department of Education Secretary Miguel Cardona. Christians have watched as the Biden administration attacks biblical views left and right, with a particularly vehement disregard of the sanctity of life and marriage. As such, it can't be too surprising that Cardona, a part of this leftist administration, has "vowed" to shut down America's largest Christian university. |

| Released from Darkness: Why Effective Criminal Rehabilitation Requires a Christian Worldview |
| by Natalie Spaulding |
| When I was a little girl, my mom and grandma would volunteer to go into prisons and cook meals for the incarcerated. They would tell me and my brother stories of these experiences. I remember my grandma saying, "I was never afraid. They are just people. God loves them, and they need Jesus." The heart of the gospel is freedom. We all were captives until Jesus released us from the darkness of sin and its penalty of death. Our own freedom from darkness should stir us to compassion for the criminal who faces physical captivity as well as spiritual captivity. |

| Stop Looking for a Perfect Life and Start Looking to a Perfect Savior |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| The white picket fence. Kids running around the yard. A husband who provides for and loves his family deeply. The wife who turns a house into a home. For some, this is as close to perfection as humanly possible. For others, a successful career in a field of one's dreams equates to a perfect life. Even still, there are so many different ways people paint this picture of perfection and apply it to the lives they hope to live. |

| Hold Obama-Biden Foreign Policy Responsible for Iran's Unprecedented Attack on Israel |
| by Josh Hammer |
| How did we reach the point where Iran feels so emboldened, and so unafraid of any repercussions, that it lobs hundreds of offensive weapons from its own territory toward another sovereign nation - especially one so closely allied with the U.S. and interconnected with the broader Western order? The answer is just as clear as it is troubling. |
