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?

Polish families with two or more children will now pay zero income tax up to a certain earning threshold under President Karol Nawrocki’s pro-family, faith-focused reform.

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. The moment provides Israel with great cause for rejoicing, but it also brings the Israeli government to a difficult, untrodden fork in the road.

Many – including plenty of young people – in the secular West are growing tired of what is on offer, and are looking for something more. Charlie Kirk helped to point many in that direction, and it seems that God is not yet finished with the West.

Christians must see Islam for what it is: a spiritual system that enslaves, not a community of people to despise. The sharper we recognise the chains, the more we must remember the Captive. Every Muslim is someone loved by God.

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.”

In Yangon, Myanmar, 27-year-old Nandar was doing what she always did — serving her church with quiet faithfulness — when evil walked through the door.

From Billboard to the Baptist Press, Contemporary Christian Music’s new museum is creating more than just a cloistered hum. The new Gospel Music Association (GMA Dove Awards) initiative opened on 3 October and is now the home of some of CCM’s biggest achievers and greatest achievements.

Jesus celebrated these feasts, and so we will be drawn closer to Him if we search the scriptures to find out why Jesus felt they were so important. Each of the Feasts points to Jesus, and celebrating them opens an opportunity to draw closer to Him, the Righteous One, our Rescuer, Saviour and Lord.

What might appear to be a political battle over culture is really a deeper spiritual conflict about God, truth, and the soul of our civilisation.

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.

Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials on Friday evening arrested more than two dozen pastors across at least seven provinces who are part of the underground Zion Church network, extending what China Aid called “the most extensive and coordinated wave of persecution against urban independent house churches in China in over four decades.”

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.
