What has been achieved in the Middle East is nothing short of a miracle. Now, the question on everyone’s mind is: Will there be lasting peace in this region?

Hamas finally released the last 20 living hostages it captured on October 7, resolving for Israel the long-sustained dissonance of negotiating lopsided hostage releases with its genocidal foe.

Freedom rarely disappears overnight. More often, it's chipped away – one "common-sense reform" at a time.

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.

Every law reflects morality of some kind, and the public square is always being occupied by a set of beliefs. So why wouldn’t Christians advocate for laws that reflect Christian beliefs and morality?

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.
