Silly Season, Serious Matters

There is a reason people call election time, “the silly season.”  It seems this year to have come early.   Over the top rants are getting a yawn but obvious opposition research gets treated as real.  The recent attack on Carly Fiorina I put in the latter category.   It seems that some of my friends who […]

Before You Were Born

Editor’s Note: Since the news has been flooded with gruesome scenes of total disregard for human life, Concerned Women for America (CWA) thought our members could use a breath of fresh air. The piece below was written by Katlyn, a woman who recently found out she is pregnant with her first child.

Summary of the Center for Medical Progress Videos

Many Americans have heard about the undercover videos exposing the abortion-and-baby-part practices of Planned Parenthood.  The truth must be known.  If you believe the videos to be heavily edited, watch for yourself and judge; full-length versions are available.  Some tout the line “the transcripts show select editing,” but ask that Planned-Parenthood-defender if they have read […]

Dangerous Dealings With Iran

I know a bad deal when I see one. In college, one of my guy friends knew how to work the system. Due to his ridiculous ability to talk his way into a good deal, his room had more technology than Best Buy. Mind you, our dorm rooms were slightly larger than a closet,

Presidential Math

Quick! Someone Common Core this for me! Have you ever heard the one-liner, “Over 78% of statistics are made up on the spot”? Well, that joke has now made it to the White House — and the president loves to tell variations of it at his press conferences. Most recently, the president claimed that “99% […]

Protesting vs. Sidewalk Counseling

There are such noble reasons for protests. Truly there are.  As I sit here, my office prepares to protest the so-called “deal” with Iran, which is really no deal at all, but an unwise and naïve concession.  Protests matter.  They start conversations.  They move hearts.  Some are crazy and violent and without a message (think […]

Dr. Bruchalski’s Road to Damascus Story

In the beginning of the pro-life movement, we first messaged our position in terms of saving the lives of the unborn, and rightly so.  But the movement realized people needed to know that mothers were also cared for, so pregnancy centers and slogans like “Love Them Both” and “One Dead: One Wounded” started to become […]

The Left has Left out Details (Again)

By now, you’ve heard the news circulating around the video which exposed Planned Parenthood’s disgraceful selling of aborted baby parts. One would think the other side would remain silent, for it would be absurd to comment on something that most Americans would agree is embarrassingly inhumane. Nonetheless, many pro-aborts are continuing to back Planned Parenthood,

YWA President Calls El Paso Churches to Action

Crystal Macias, Young Women for America (YWA) President at the University of Texas at El Paso, wrote a letter to encourage and convict the body of Christ to prayer and action on behalf of our nation. As a leader on her campus, she recognizes that the often used phrase “God Bless America”

The End of Democracy?

After the Supreme Court decided to redefine marriage by invalidating the votes of millions of Americans who went to the voting booth to protect marriage as the union between one man and one woman, I asked myself, “Does democracy still exist?” My question was quickly answered by President Obama’s response to the ruling.

Forced Marriages: A Case of ‘Happily Never After’

Twenty: the number of minutes that Esther had to meet her husband before she was engaged and married off by her parents. Seventeen: the age that Esther was when she was married. Ten: the number of years that Esther was abused by her “husband.” During that span of time, not only did he rape her, but […]

Cincinnati: Pete Rose, Skyline Chili, and … Sex Trafficking?

The City of Cincinnati, Ohio is famous for its German heritage but mostly, it’s famous for its food—Skyline Chili, Graeters Ice Cream, and the interesting meat creation that is “goetta”. It’s also the birthplace of former President Taft, baseball legend Pete Rose, and former mayor, Jerry Springer … but that’s another story.

One Decision on Marriage Leads to Another

The decision is out. Marriage in the United States of America has now been redefined to include homosexual couples who want to enter into holy matrimony. Irony intended. So what do we do now? I will get to that in a minute, but first let me say I have no quick quotes, cute sayings

Penny Nance Quoted for Standing in Solidarity

After the abominable events surrounding the recent shooting of nine church members at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, S.C., Governor Nikki Haley (R-SC) and Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) called for the removal of the Confederate flag from the state capitol out of respect for the mourning community members.

Reigniting Unity by Removing the Confederate Flag

Concerned Women for America is honored to stand with South Carolina’s Governor, Nikki Haley, in her call for the removal of the Confederate flag from the grounds of South Carolina’s state capitol, and here’s why. This matter has been an issue for over five decades, but we are speaking out now in support for Gov. […]

Major League Baseball Didn’t Make a Major League Dad, but Christ Did

It’s October 1, 1992. The Milwaukee Brewers are playing the Seattle Mariners. The Brewers were two games out of first place with only four games left in the season. My dad steps up to the pitcher’s mound and pitches 10 innings. In those 10 innings, he gave up only two runs on just four hits.

Moms Tell 2016 Candidates to Man Up on National Security

On one of the darkest days in modern American history, many American women became what pollsters now call “security moms” and a necessary demographic for presidential hopefuls in 2016.  The morning of September 11, 2001, my oldest child was at preschool, while my 11-month-old son napped peacefully in his crib.

Gold Medals or Gold Stars?

Can you identify this person? What about this one? One of these individuals is revered as a hero for sacrificing his life for the freedom of the other to wear a dress and a wig. You probably could easily identify the first image of Bruce (Caitlyn) Jenner, but the second may have presented a challenge. […]

Modern Day Idolatry: Putting Anything Before God

While reading through the book Finding Truth by Nancy Pearcey, a section caught my eye and convicted me at my core – which made me think that some of my fellow believers may need to hear the message as well. It’s a topic which we, as 21st century Christians, sometimes tend to gloss over: idolatry.
