The deception of this age runs very deep . . . deeper than most people would like to think it runs. The deepest deception is that we are all very wonderful, gay, and sinless . . . and in no real need of a Savior. Does anybody get to exempt themselves from the grace of God? Rosaria Butterfield, author of the new book "Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age," speaks from personal experience and with a special clarity on the lies of the age in this helpful interview.

The Gen Z folks have taken up Sodom on steroids—now 28% up from 4% twenty years ago. Is there a connection between a life of idleness, prosperity, and escape and Sodom? Sodom was filled with an "abundance of idleness," pride marches, and prosperity . . . and they "strengthened the hands of evildoers." Both young teens and old were beating down Lot's doors to get at the angels. How will we ever return to a rule of law? Even the pagan states realized this was essential to retain a social order....

Parental rights and family freedoms are slipping big time in certain states . . . allowing for more state kidnappings of children. California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New Mexico, Vermont, and Washington, as well as Kansas City, Missouri, and other places are dangerous for families if parental rights and protection of children from transgender surgeries remains a value. The country has become sharply divided on the issue, and chances of a p...

Remarkably, the leading players in the Super Bowl this year are professing Christians; and a few years ago, three quarters of NFL quarterbacks were reported to have been evangelical Christians. That cannot be said of Hollywood, the media, and politicians (or at least the US Supreme Court). Here, we look at the positives and negatives of spectator sports and take up the subject of sports gambling.

The revival of ancient paganism is nothing new, and yet there are some new elements to it. Paganism also included mass slave-based systems, and that is what is developing as humans are increasingly controlled by computers and their programmers. We take a look at the recent progress in technology, enabling humans to manipulate cursors on a screen and surf the internet by brain function.

What is the "Establishment" referenced so much, mostly by conservatives? And shall Christians support the MSM and Big Tech Media? We contrast the worldview of the MSM, Fox News, and the other 3% of news sources. Does Fox News maintain the three sacraments of the establishment religion? Christians must reject the establishment message and oppose the medial cabal. But many have a hard time accepting marginalization and castigation and facing down the enemy. This too will be a faith challenge....

Some pain and illness will be orders of magnitude more intensive than other forms. What happens when the suffering and pain is so intense and so prolonged that it puts the human mental and emotional condition to the test, and shakes faith and hope to the very core? Does faith break? Does love fail? Or does one find love in the darkness and hope in the torment? David Libby shares the real-life story of a fifteen-year ordeal with chronic pain and suffering in the lives of his wife and children. Th...

God uses certain means to bring about salvation while He is sovereign over all of it. Fifty-one percent of evangelicals confirm that their parents were the most important or significant influence in their becoming Christians. Fifteen percent credit a spouse or a sibling as the most important influence in them coming to faith. And only 3% credit a Sunday School teacher, a VBS instructor, or some other ministry in the church, and 4% would credit a concert or a crusade. Dads and moms are critical t...

World-shaking crises are always in the wind, and the media takes full advantage of them. The fear-mongering is part of the worship service for the media and political systems. What's our mindset in foreseeing crises and handling them when they come? How do we keep everything in the right proportion in our minds, and what is our response to the crisis? When we view the root cause, are we looking at brute chance, human powers, demonic powers, or the sovereign hand of almighty God?

Tucker Carlson, Elon Musk, and other favorite conservative icons are increasingly employing the most profane language to make their points. Granted, some situations call for stronger language—but are these angry tirades going over the edge? What about referring to someone’s position as “cattle excrement?” How does the Christian use language to build up and give grace?

Teen popular culture now has shifted into almost 100% Satanism, homosexuality, and suicide. While Christian parents want to protect their children from these ungodly influences, they can't protect their kids from their own hearts. What do you tell a parent whose teen kids are in rebellion after they've done "all the right things?"

We’re in the middle of a raging apostasy and an aggressive zeitgeist that is anti-Christan. Like it or not, we are in the midst of a culture war. We are more on defense than offense. Do we fight? Do act the nice guy? Do we walk away and just try to avoid the whole thing? Kevin Swanson and Adam McManus discuss the Christians life and the culture war that we find ourselves in the midst of.

Disagreeing with the law of gravity isn't a very good idea. But what happens when a society turns on God's created order? Certain Gamaliels of the day are calling out a "coming psychological black death." What is the root of the root for this pandemic?

The world's heroes are not our heroes. We compare Martin Luther King, Jr. to John Jasper. Who's John Jasper? That's the point of this program. God call us to impartiality, not to be a respecter of persons. This applies as much to segregation laws as it does to pastors who commit adultery.

They tell us Donald Trump will be our candidate of the 2024 election, like it or not. Donald Trump is considered the most religious candidate among the presidential candidates, and yet supported by the non-church attenders . . . and Trump supporters are less and less likely to be part of the visible body of Christ. America is leaving the church in droves, but they still want to be labeled “nominal Christians.”

Here is the story of an average American family forced into the transgendered nightmare in a junior high school in Smalltown, USA. In the process, they almost lost their daughter.

Which religion, which law, and which symbols will be represented by your governments today? Will polytheism reign over Iowa? Or will Satanism reign over Iowa? These are the questions the Iowa state government is grappling with. A former US Navy pilot doesn't want to be part of a nation that worships Satan, and so he destroyed the Satan display inside the Iowa Capitol. What's next?

Missionary legends Jim and Elizabeth Elliott have come under more scrutiny and guarded criticism after their departure. But then again, what is a hero of the faith? Does the credit belong to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, or to the Monday morning quarterbacks? Or does God get the credit? Here is a good discussion on Hebrews 11 and the heroes of the faith.

This may be a first in the history of political tyranny. Certain parts of Australia are now banning certain forms of Christian prayer and preaching. The official state religion among post-Christian nations is total sexual autonomy, and anybody who would challenge that is up for 5-10 years in prison. What would Daniel do? WWDD?

Published lists of the most admired and most influential persons have shifted (since 1965) from American politicians to foreign politicians and pop stars and billionaires and guys who do drugs. Cynicism towards politics is at an all-time high. The messiahs have disappointed the electorate too many times. But what does this mean for the future of America and the world? Psalm 20 says it all.

Coming Out of Cultural Christianity and LGBTQ+ Identity into Authentic Faith in Jesus,” provides a raw narrative of growing up in the middle of the minefield, falling face down on the mines, and then finding Jesus at the end. Now, he’s a dad, and he has some good wisdom for this audience. Some time is taken on how to shepherd the more sensitive boy with less-masculine charac...

Once we agree that God gets to determine ethics, that doesn't mean we're all going to be in hunky dory agreement with each other on how to make the right application. Paul warns about getting too tied up in quarrelsome matters relating to the law. Surely the Pharisees were good at it. Yet, we do not ignore the law. We still wish to love God and keep His commandments. So, how does this work when it comes to the matters of law over which sincere Christians disagree? How does one determine the diff...

Kevin Swanson explains the everything bubble in simple terms. Since the year 2000, Americans borrowed $72 trillion from money created out of thin air—and they increased the pretended value of themselves by $65 trillion (in real estate and stocks). The DJIA increased five-fold in 14 years. Is American industry producing five times as much as it was in 2009? America has turned into a gigantic pretense—in economics, religion, and social integrity. But, as Christians we are pressed towards humility ...

Taylor Swift is the biggest pop phenomenon since Michael Jackson, 117 Guinness World Records, the successor of the Beatles . . . and on and on the accolades go. She is pro-abortion, pro-gay, but most importantly, "pro-me." She represents the current "I feel" zeitgeist better than anything. The me-centered, feelings-dominated modern male and female appreciate the worship services led by Taylor Swift—89,000 at a time. She also leads the world from decadence to despair, unlike any other popular cul...

A Nigerian rapper in London tweets, “The West is [toast] if it loses its Christian foundation,” and Elon Musk sort of agrees. The rapper from Africa and the richest man in the world may have a point. The proportion of Christians was trimmed back 50 percent in Europe and North America over 100 years, while the East and South doubled its Christian percentage of the world population. But will civilization survive after jettisoning the foundations put in place over the period of 1,000 years?
