Australia’s Largest Christian News Site

Kurt Mahlburg recently joined the Feminine Manifesto Podcast to unpack why Australia Day matters. The interview covered topics like colonisation, forgiveness and the underlying worldview that’s shaping the Australia Day debate.

Australia Day reflects Christian heritage, Western law, and hard-won freedoms, not national shame—offering a moment for gratitude, unity, and honest reflection instead of ideological division and historical distortion.

Before considering a change of date for Australia Day, I need a few questions answered…

Labor faces backlash for spending $1.5 million studying a change to Australia Day, despite overwhelming poll after poll showing Australians strongly support keeping January 26.

Australia’s new “interstellar Indigenous policy” grant sparks satire, with critics lampooning a space program focused on cultural protocols over spacecraft, engineering, or anything that might actually reach space.

National Forgiveness Week in Beswick brought powerful testimonies, healing conversations and practical reconciliation, showcasing how everyday acts of forgiveness can transform relationships, communities and the wider Australian story.

Last Thursday, the Victorian Parliament passed the Statewide Treaty Bill, which will bring about everything a clear majority of Victorians voted against more than two years ago. Premier Allan has given her middle finger to every Victorian who voted No and to the democratic process in general.

We’ve now reached that special stage of national enlightenment where even medical emergencies are now to be judged — not by urgency, and not by injury — but by identity. Congratulations, Victoria. You’ve finally cured racism: by institutionalising it.

With five-year-old boys being encouraged by this government to identify as girls, why can’t non-indigenous folks just identify as indigenous to get that preferential treatment at hospitals? If Premier Jacinta Allan is quite happy with the former, she should be just fine with the latter.

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.

Together, Ps Tim and Dianna Edwards have given their lives to share the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ across Australia and the world for over 40 years. This is Ps Tim's eulogy for his beloved wife.

Rather than ban burning the Australian national flag, our feckless politicians banned the flag from the Senate instead. Jacinta Nampijinpa Price was forced to remove the Blue Ensign. This was despite the flag being relevant to the day, her speech, and the House.

Another Garma, another grandiose speech. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese offers familiar promises, but action for Indigenous communities is still missing.

The 48th Parliament of Australia opened with a Welcome to Country, which the Prime Minister claimed is above debate. But do Australians really want to be welcomed to their own country?

With antisemitism increasing in Australian schools, an Indigenous-led organisation has developed an age-appropriate curriculum to help protect Jewish students and build cohesion among young Australians.

The Victorian Allen Government is planning to implement a state-based Voice to Parliament, which will advise the Victorian Government on policies affecting Indigenous Australians – even though Victoria and the whole of Australia voted 'No'. No means no.

A new poll has revealed that a large majority of Australians see Welcome to Country ceremonies as divisive, especially at major public events. Only one-third believe they should be performed.

Thanks to Australia’s first-ever Indigenous Truth Telling Inquiry – an expensive guilt parade funded by the colonisers – we finally have a clearer picture of what reconciliation really means. Not coming together, but separate nations and forever fragmentation. Plus invoices. Lots and lots of invoices.

Indigenous Friends of Israel International is hosting an event to launch our Antisemitism Education Project on 7 July in Cairns, as we honour the legacy of William Cooper and his brave stand against antisemitism.

Melbourne-based street sweeper Shaun Turner committed a secular sin in the progressive gospel when he questioned whether an Acknowledgement of Country was necessary before the weekly street sweeping session. Swept aside from his job, the council has now reinstated him.
