Why are so many males running away from their own masculinity? There would be many reasons for this, and sadly, the church is not exempt from responsibility for this. It, too, has warred against men and masculinity.

There are numerous reasons why it can be argued that Anthony Albanese is the worst Prime Minister Australia has ever had. If not the worst, then certainly in the top two or three. Everything he touches seems to turn to ashes.

According to the White House, American filmmaker Michael Moore has just made the “dumbest statement of the year.” And I am inclined to agree with them. It was not only dumb, but it further reveals the hypocrisy and double standards of the loony left.

While Western elites, politicians and media outlets all hyperventilate about the supposed problem of “Islamophobia” in the West, the real truth is this: throughout the world, the most persecuted religious group is Christianity, and it is so often mainly Islam that is doing the persecution.

A government without accountability and checks and balances is not a proper government but a tyranny. In a fallen world, having limited and small government is a basic necessity, given how much power corrupts.

Plenty of good books have been written over recent years looking at the cultural captivity of Christian churches, evangelicalism’s decline, and the rise of religious lefties embracing radical woke policies, pushing identity politics, running with faulty social justice narratives, and so on.

Leading British intellectual and Jewish commentator Melanie Phillips offers much-needed clarity on how Western leftists are siding with Islamists to bring about the end, not only of Israel, but of the West.

It used to be that conservatives needed to work long and hard to see their aims and objectives accomplished. Now, increasingly, the lefties are doing so much of the work for us.

When you aggressively work on draining the swamp, there is one thing you can be certain of: a whole lot of ugly, dark and disgusting stuff starts coming to the surface.

I was once very much a man of the left, but since becoming a Christian, I have moved to the right. But neither one deserves my complete allegiance. While much of conservatism I readily embrace, there are some aspects of it that I want little to do with.

Well over 40 years ago, as he wrote in "How Democracies Perish", Revel could see that the West was in dire straits, and external enemies back then – most notably Soviet Communism – were being aided and abetted by those within the West who were simply blind to the goods of their own world.

These books all argue that modern Israel has a right to exist, it has a right to defend itself, and it is the only real democracy in the entire Middle East. Given the global hatred and hostility to Israel, we need to be aware of books like these.

For all of my adult life, I have been a counterculturalist. First, it was with the utopian, idealistic, yet ultimately defective hard-left version of events. But then, by God’s grace, I found the real deal, built on the solid rock of Jesus Christ, His unchanging Word, love and forgiveness.

Donald J. Trump and J. D. Vance have done more in their first five days in office than just about any other presidential team in history. Making America much more pro-life is an integral part of making America great again.

One tireless worker for families, marriage, and especially for children, is the American activist and writer Katy Faust. She and her pastor husband have four children and live in Seattle.

I am using "and" in my title more as a type of contrast. So, I am not saying the recent Trump inauguration was a Christian revival, but some similarities can nonetheless be mentioned.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is part of the bigger (and badder) world of transhumanism and the like. All this is making brave new world scenarios a present-day reality, not a potential future worry.

It is quite likely that the October 7, 2023 terror assault would never have occurred if Trump was in the White House back then. All this is part of a global civilisational war that is taking place. And it in large measure involves political Islam versus the free West.

Here, I briefly discuss three new books about three amazing Christian women. Two involve rather dramatic conversion stories of Americans who have recently written up their stories, while the third involves an Australian whose new book is equally inspiring.

With a number of people dead and thousands of homes and businesses destroyed, the massive fires fuelled by strong winds in Los Angeles have been utterly devastating. The sad truth is this: California leaders and authorities were clearly quite unprepared for these fires.
