Christians have often avoided political power, thinking faith and politics don’t mix. Yet Scripture commends leaders like Joseph, Daniel, Esther and Paul for upholding righteousness in the civic sphere and pointing pagan empires back to God.

The recent global Wave of Light event was a powerful reminder about the value of unborn babies. But does a life only have value when we decide it does?

Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) reportedly drew the line at a teacher's request to use they/them pronouns and to be referred to as Mx rather than Mr, and so now MACS is being sued for discrimination. This religious freedom case may affect all faith-based schools and institutions in the country.

It's two years this week since the Voice referendum. Two years since one of the great victories of democracy against a radical push by activists to divide us by race in the Constitution.

Accusations of “Christian nationalism” often mask a double standard — where progressive ideas are welcomed in politics, but Christian voices are exiled.

Leadership changes don't just shift political party rooms – they shape a nation's direction. Australia deserves leaders who are steady, truthful, and free – men and women unafraid to stand for what's right even when their opponents jeer.

Australian media and a small handful of politicians are finally shedding light on the appalling consequences of self-identification laws and gender ideology.

This truly is a day for the history books. As the Most Revd Dr Laurent Mbanda wrote in an official communique on behalf of the GAFCON, “As has been the case from the very beginning, we have not left the Anglican Communion; we are the Anglican Communion.”

The Islamophobia report is being sold as a roadmap to a more harmonious Australia when in reality, it seems like a Trojan horse: a vast catalogue of demands that, if accepted, would privilege one group’s sensitivities, weaken our defences against extremism, and embed grievance politics into the heart of government.

Freedom rarely disappears overnight. More often, it's chipped away – one "common-sense reform" at a time. That's exactly what we're seeing in Britain, where the Labour Government's latest push for digital identification has triggered a storm of public anger and accelerated its collapse in the polls.

738 days after the demonic October 7 terror attack, we now have some closure happening. With the remaining 20 living hostages released from the Hamas terrorists and the rest of the bodies of the dead hostages due to be released, it has been a remarkable 24 hours.

Egypt’s Islamic hate speech laws have claimed yet another victim. Christian author and apologist, Dr Augustine Samaan, was detained in early October. His only crime? Criticising Islam.

If Americans can ditch the Woke left and embrace liberty, merit, and common sense, then so too can the rest of the world, including Australia. The importance of Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the United States is impossible to overstate.

How two millennia of exile taught the Jewish people to stand, and why Israel — shielded by memory and might — will not be bullied into silence. Jews do not seek permission to survive. We do not need lectures when our children’s lives are on the line.

Australia just crossed a dangerous line. A line that marks the difference between a free nation and a surveillance state. Between a democracy and a regime that decides what thoughts you’re allowed to think.

Let's pray that a lasting peace breaks out in the Middle East, something not guaranteed despite the incredible diplomatic achievements of the past days. For Australia, let's pray and work for social cohesion, as most of us have had enough of this foreign conflict dominating our public discourse.

Julia Gillard's government removed the definitions of male and female in the Sex Discrimination Act in 2013, making way for gender identity to take precedence over reality in law. At that moment, women's sex-based rights were erased with the stroke of a pen.

Charlie Kirk’s insight into why men wear dark suits at their wedding was both provocative and profound, to say the least. Marriage is a process of death from which life usually springs in more ways than one. I often tell men it is a wonderful way to die.

The President of the United States is in the process of negotiating a historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. So why are pro-Palestinian protests still being planned? Now that there is a peace deal on the table, surely the goal of these rallies for Gaza has been achieved?
