At least three churches in Kentucky hosted a festival late last year and billed it as an event where “children can partake in activities like jewelry making and a scavenger hunt.” This LGBTQ pride event also featured a drag show. In times past, you would never hear of a church…

April 15, 2021 | Freddy Davis

HBO late night comedian Bill Maher has made no secret of the fact that he is a militant Atheist, and it is not uncommon at all for him to make derisive comments about Christians and Christianity. He did not disappoint, recently, when on his show he dismissively said, “The events…

March 10, 2021 | Tal Davis

I don’t usually engage political issues in this blog. I prefer to address moral and theological principles.
