Bible First: Testing the Conservative Right by Scripture

This lesson is not written to tell anyone how to vote.

It is written to remind Christians that our first loyalty is not to a political party, a social movement, a news network, a favorite politician, or a cultural tribe.

Getting Real with God | Jeremiah 33:3 | Our Daily Bread Video Devotional

Our prayers and petitions do not have to be pretty when we are speaking with God. Our lives do not have to be polished and mess-free before we open our door to His Spirit and choose to abide in His presence. Watch today’s video and remember that God offers us a relationship with Him that is made of honesty, hope, and a whole lot of love.

When the “-ism” Becomes God

What if the greatest danger to society is not socialism, capitalism, communism, or any other economic system—but the belief that economics itself can save us? Throughout history, nations have repeatedly elevated markets, production, growth, and consumption to near-sacred status. The result is often the same: human beings become numbers, workers, consumers, taxpayers, or demographic categories rather than individuals with inherent dignity. This article explores the common flaw shared by many competing ideologies—the tendency to place the economy at the center of human existence—and asks a simple question: when the economy becomes god, what happens to the people it was supposed to serve?

So, You Want to Make America Great Again?

I’ve been to quite a few Donald Trump rallies as he’s campaigned for president.  Every one was huge, with tens of thousands of people in attendance.  In every case, there were lines of people so long, that the venues couldn’t hold all those that wanted to be there.  The rallies were enormous because the majority of Americans are desperate for some good news, an optimistic message, a little hope for a return to the good, old fashioned American dream.  And “Make America Great Again,” with an emphasis on rebuilding the foundations of our country’s glory days, resonated with so many.

THE EVER BRIGHTER MARRIAGE–The Promises of Pain and Joy in Marriage

Architecture of a Godly Marriage–Will your marriage be a source of incredible joy, or a source of intolerable pain? In this eye-opening session of Dr. John Barnett’s Proverbs masterclass, we explore God’s unvarnished truth about the reality of marriage.

So, You Want to Know My Thoughts On Trump…

My message today may not be a popular one, but it’s time to address the elephant in the room, and I’ll attempt to do it in a fair and balanced way. I want to talk about Donald Trump. I realize I’m walking on thin ice here, because he’s one of — if not the — most polarizing figures in all of American political history.  Critics have an unreasonable and largely unsubstantiated hatred for Trump, which has come to be known as “Trump Derangement Syndrome” or “TDS.” Meanwhile, many of his supporters believe he can do no wrong, and are willing to overlook anything he does that they don’t agree with, because after all, he’s “saved us” from the Communist Left.

Why the U.S. Army Adopted an Ancient Symbol for a Logo

The five-pointed star was a symbol of harmony, divine order, and protection for thousands of years before Hollywood and occult writers gave it a darker reputation. The Greeks saw mathematical perfection in its lines, Christians saw the wounds of Christ, and the American founders saw a “new constellation” representing a republic of united states. The geometry never changed. The story did. And when the U.S. Army painted a white star on tanks and aircraft, it was not invoking ancient magic—it was carrying forward one of humanity’s oldest and most enduring symbols of order, purpose, and identity.

James Talarico: a representative of failing ‘progressive’ Christianity, and a hypocrite to boot

In a move reminiscent of Democratic congressional candidate Amy McGrath Hnderson being caught on tape, fund raising in Massachusetts for a congressional seat in the Bluegrass State, saying “I am further left, I am more progressive, than anyone in the state of Kentucky,” Texas Democratic Senate nominee was caught on tape saying, in a 2022 …

The Star, the Seal, and the Stories We Live By How Two Triangles Became One of the Most Powerful Symbols on Earth

The six-pointed star did not begin as the Star of David. For centuries, it was associated with the legendary Seal of Solomon, a symbol tied to stories of hidden wisdom and supernatural power. Over time, the same geometry took on a very different meaning, becoming the enduring emblem of Jewish identity, survival, and national restoration. The lines never changed. The story did. And that is the secret behind every powerful symbol: it is not the shape itself that moves people, but the history, faith, and identity carried within it.
