Ten reasons why prayer is the ultimate protest
Nick Hall, From Black Lives Matter to The Women’s March to political movements, grassroots activism defines our day. We rally to take power from power-hungry elites and place it with the people. While these movements are compelling and certainly deserve our attention, it often feels like our passion for these causes may tear the very
5 Ways Millennials Can Pray for America
Caleb Parke, Millennials have the most access in history to the Bible with in-depth studies on it – from podcasts to countless versions – but it’s easy for us to get distracted by so much access to other things. I know I’m guilty of scrolling through Instagram, comparing myself to others, checking Facebook incessantly, and
“The Establishment” Is Laughing At You, President Trump

NPR Debate Smackdown: Truth vs. Prochoice

Cal Thomas, In Greek mythology, sirens were beautiful creatures that lured sailors to their doom with their hypnotic voices.
