Promises, Possession, and Purpose

Religious map with biblical quote and path.

Sanctuary Policies Fueling America’s Decline

Map highlighting crime in sanctuary cities.

Five of America’s largest cities—Philadelphia, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and Los Angeles—are in freefall. Crime is surging. Budgets are busted. Taxpayers are covering the cost of illegal immigration. And local leadership, dominated by progressive policies, continues to protect lawbreakers rather than enforce the law. These cities share more than just size—they all call themselves…

Stupidocrisy: Better aborted than shot at school

Controversial Planned Parenthood and school safety illustration.

Democratic Congressman Maxwell Frost (D-FL) on July 1 made possibly the dumbest statement of 2025 so far—and there have been a lot to choose from. Frost said Republicans want “the baby to be born, go to school and get shot in the school. Die in the schools, die on the streets–” And he said it…

Got Zeal?

Religious painting with heart and Bible verse.

In Numbers 25:10–30:1, we meet a man whose righteous zeal changed history. Phinehas (Pinchas), the grandson of Aaron, saw blatant sin and idolatry sweeping through Israel at Baal Peor—a plague of lust and rebellion that had already claimed 24,000 lives. In a single, daring act, he speared an Israelite leader and a Midianite woman caught…

The American Chronicles: Mud, Mosquitoes & Motor Scooters

Two people near Shenandoah National Park sign.

Camping near Front Royal, Virginia, we set out for the Seven Pools trail in Shenandoah State Park. The trailhead greeted us with sunshine, decent footing, and enough humidity to make us look like we’d already gone for a swim.

Stupidocrisy: Dems signal a coming storm of nasty gaslighting

Tornado with political text swirling around.

The “Big Beautiful Bill” (BBB) is shaping up to be one of the most consequential pieces of legislation for the American people in a generation. It delivers targeted, tangible benefits to workers, seniors, and small businesses—yet Democrats and their media echo chamber are doing everything they can to convince Americans it’s a disaster. What’s really…

Founding Fire: The Bible Blueprint Behind America’s Birth

America's founding principles inspired by biblical themes.

There’s a reason the Founding Fathers often quoted Scripture—whether in public speech, personal letters, or the principles baked into the Constitution itself. They didn’t see America as a new Israel in the theological sense or a replacement of God’s people, but they recognized something sacred in the process of forming a nation under God. And…

No, the Hardest Word

Biblical scene illustrating obedience and consequences.

The story of Balaam and Balak in Numbers 22–25 is one of the most ironic and haunting narratives in the Torah. It’s filled with drama, satire, and sobering lessons about obedience, temptation, and the cost of compromise. At the center of it all is one simple but difficult word: No. Balak, the king of Moab, was terrified of…

The American Chronicles: The No Fun Zones of Rehoboth Beach

Man with packed car, giving thumbs up.

Packing for the beach used to be simple. Our RV is actually a rolling apartment on wheels. Forget a chair? Walk three feet. Need snacks? Open the fridge. But now, (for the weekend only) trading in the land yacht for the more nimble—but not nearly as forgiving—Jeep, meant some executive decisions needed made. Do we…
