Army Chaplain Under Investigation Over Facebook Posts Critical of Transgender Troops
Calvert argued that there is "little difference" between those who believe in transgenderism and "those who believe and argue for a ‘flat earth.'
“The most nurturing counsel I can give to someone who is under the delusion of transgenderism (gender dysphoria) is to recommend professional counseling to assist in the healing process,” Calvert reportedly wrote in the post. “To not do so, and merely pander to make-believe social whims of the moment, is not only damaging but idiocy.”...

Denmark Sermons Law Could Stifle Free Worship, Warns Church of England Bishop
Robert Innes says proposed translation law could affect religious freedoms across Europe.
Innes told the Guardian he feared the law, if backed in the Danish parliament, the Folketing, would be replicated elsewhere in Europe at a time when religious minorities were generally finding their freedoms being encroached upon…There is a growing level of concern at a perceived rise of Islamist extremism among the 270,000 Muslims who live...

China’s Communist leaders fear Christian population may reach 300 million by 2030
"You need to understand there is seriously something wrong in your life if you don’t want to die." - Francis Chan
In efforts to strengthen adherence to the CCP and stifle dissent, China’s government imposed a national security law in Hong Kong in June. Since then, multiple pro-democracy activists have been arrested, and some sentenced to jail, accused of violating the national security law and subverting state power. The prospect that China’s Christian community might... Continue Reading
Keep Moving Forward
" Now is not the time to give up or despair. Now is the precise time for which we have been training our mind and character. " - Carl Trueman
Continue. Keep moving forward. Keep doing the job you’ve been called to do, speaking the truth in love and righteousness for the good of your neighbor, to the glory of God. It’s hard to avoid feeling discouraged these days. These feel like unprecedented times, and in many ways, they are. However, one thing is... Continue Reading
Chinese Inventions: The Compass, Gunpowder, …and Critical Social Justice?
While Western academics are only now looking at China with their Critical lens, I believe China beat them to the punch.
China became wholly obsessed with race, ethnicity, and identity politics to a degree not yet realized in the present-day West; although thanks to the Theorists, we are well on the way. I believe that obsession was fomented specifically by the Communist Party, in order to provide a social environment which could be exploited for their... Continue Reading
When Rome Is Burning
The church is no stranger to traumatic geopolitical events and major culture shifts.
We will always face political and cultural upheaval. Will we walk by faith in the midst of it? Christians in Rome woke up on June 19, AD 64 to find their city burning but their faith secure. Their calling had not changed and neither has ours; the righteous will live by faith. “Besides this,... Continue Reading
What Is Critical Race Theory?
Critical Race Theory presents a radically different view of our society and of us than most of us recognize or accept.
They begin with the assumption of racism and look to find it. They say everyone who doesn’t do this is complicit in the problem, including just for disagreeing with Critical Race Theory. And they reject the fundamental liberal, reasonable, legal, and scientific principles upon which liberal societies operate. That is, even though they touch on... Continue Reading
Biden’s Promise to Codify Roe
The leading effect of constitutional conservatism is, tragically, to make certain that if the new Democratic Congress “codifies” Roe, the Supreme Court will have rendered itself helpless to resist it.
What was so compelling to the justices nearly two decades after Roe is likely to be so after nearly five. The Court has endorsed the relationship between women’s equality and their reproductive freedom as an adequate basis for federal laws about pregnancy non-discrimination and family medical leave. Levelling the playing field in the marketplace, so that women’s... Continue Reading
Idol
God is still sovereign. He can take down any country any time He is ready.
I have been witnessing some professing Christians over the last couple of years say and do some incredible things indicating that their hearts are not set on worshipping the one true God, but on some form of idolatry. Some have made an idol of the USA and our Constitutional Republic. Some have made an idol... Continue Reading
Be a Truth-Lover
Communication is never ethically neutral. Words do things.
At the core of Christianity are a book and a person. The book contains the words of God. The Person is the Word of God. Both define truth, exalting it as authoritative and precious. That means that Jesus-followers and Scripture-readers can’t just play games with words. Said better, they shouldn’t. They must not. I... Continue Reading
