Pray for our Press
The mainstream media suicide continues. It is incredibly sad to watch. It is extremely troubling, especially when you think about the role and purpose it is supposed to serve. This weekend’s coverage of North Korea by many outlets was simply disgraceful. It is now a proven, tangible, quantifiable, irrefutable fact that you cannot trust the […]
You’ve Gotta Love Gerber
No, I’m not a paid spokesperson for Gerber. However, in case you haven’t heard, Gerber chose one-year-old Lucas Warren from Dalton, Georgia, as its 2018 Gerber baby. What’s so special about that? Lucas is the first child with Down syndrome to be chosen. Well done, Gerber! Whether they know it or not, Gerber is showing […]
A Better Approach to the State of the Union
It has been remarkable to see the level of disdain aimed at President Trump. It is not normal. It seems unwarranted — even unjust. Disagreement with his policies, or the way he expressed himself at one point or another, or the way he conducted himself in any situation I can understand. But this foaming at the […]
Nassar Case Demonstrates Harms of Pornography
The pornography cancer that continues to consume our nation reared its ugly head again as the sentencing hearing of Larry Nassar concluded this week. The former USA Gymnastics doctor was sentenced to up to 175 years in prison by Judge Rosemarie Aquilina, who told him, “I’ve just signed your death warrant.” Nassar abused more than 150 […]
Good Work on Judges Must Continue in 2018
The work on the confirmation of constitutional judges was by far the best news of 2017. Not only did we confirm an exemplary candidate in Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court, but President Donald Trump also set the record for federal appellate court appointments in the first year of a presidency with 12. […]
The Secret to MLK Jr.’s Hope
It was a hope that captivated a nation. Still does. In classrooms all over America, the words of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, speech, “I Have a Dream,” still helps weave the dreams of many young minds. We all know (or should know) them by heart: I say to you today, my friends, so even though […]
Back to Reality in 2018
Strong sentiments about 2017 overwhelmed my social media feeds over the break. As with Dickens’ tale, it seems “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times …” If I had to summarize the overall sentiment, I would say 2017 was disorientating for many. It was the year of the unexpected – […]
No God, No Justice
The constant cry for justice in our times is tiresome and boring. Like my six-year-old’s toy train’s sounds, they were cute at first. After a few hours, they’re just insufferable. The “justice now” train is not going much farther than my son’s convoy tracking around him in circles as he plays on his knees. They, […]
Time to Stop Punishing the Free Exercise of Religion
Trinity Lutheran v. Comer Today at the U.S. Supreme Court, as was the case during oral arguments, no one showed up to support the state of Missouri in the Trinity Lutheran v. Comer religious liberty case. Concerned Women for America (CWA) was at the courthouse steps early, anticipating a big victory for religious freedom. And […]
Victory for CSU Students for Life Group
Students for Life won a decided victory this past week when it reached a settlement with Colorado State University (CSU) in its fight for equal standing with other school organizations. In January Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court on behalf of the Students for Life chapter at CSU after the […]
Bernie’s Oppressive America
Sen. Bernie Sanders’ socialism enjoyed surprising popularity in the last presidential election. This is disturbing to any student of history, given the overwhelming evidence of oppression that follows the implementation of that treacherous philosophy anywhere in the world. That explains, in part, his popularity with young people, who are unfortunately and increasingly unaware of the […]
Under President Trump, the U.S. Returns to Honoring Life Globally
One of the things President Donald Trump should be most proud of from his short time in the White House is his decision to move the U.S. away from the hideous business of promoting abortion-on-demand around the world. On Jan. 23, 2017, just three days after his swearing-in ceremony, President Trump reinstated what has been […]
How long, O Lord?
Most times I am outraged, really incensed, at the evil that is abortion. I get angry at the debasement of the very image of God. The way outside forces prey on vulnerable women for their personal and corporate profit. Sometimes a sense of the reality of the sin we are committing as a nation weighs […]
Manchester Reminds Us the Church Must Be Engaged
At least 22 died yesterday and another 120 more were injured (so far) after a bomb detonation at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England. It is an incredible tragedy. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families, and they are also against the forces of evil behind this attack. We often […]
Concerned Women for America Celebrates Justice Gorsuch
Penny Nance, Concerned Women for America’s (CWA) CEO & President, was at the White House Rose Garden to witness and celebrate the swearing in of Justice Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court. President Donald J. Trump’s invitation to the solemn occasion is an honor and a true testament of the marvelous work you, our […]
Gorsuch a Justice
You did it. The U.S. Senate has just confirmed Judge (now Justice) Neil Gorsuch to be the 113th Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. This is great news for all Americans, whatever their political affiliation. Justice Gorsuch is the type of judge who will strive for judicial restraint and has demonstrated he respects the Constitution […]
Bottom Line, The Right Thing Will Happen: Gorsuch Will Be Confirmed
The 24/7 media cycle made this much more dramatic than it needed to be, but the bottom line is Judge Neil Gorsuch will be confirmed as the next Justice of the Supreme Court. The radical left was mad about many things (Trump, Garland, etc.), but their objections to Judge Gorsuch never passed the laugh test. […]
Gorsuch Appointment Needed to Guard Our Liberties
As Senate Democrats continue their childish pouting over the inevitable confirmation of Judge Neil Gorsuch to the U.S. Supreme Court, a new decision by the Seventh Circuit reminds us why the nomination of Judge Gorsuch is crucial to guarding our liberties for years to come. Before I tell you more about that decision, I will […]
Gorsuch One Step Closer to the Supreme Court
It was a painful executive meeting at the Senate Judiciary Committee today where Judge Neil Gorsuch was voted favorably out of committee 11-9 on a straight partisan vote. Democrats struggled to justify voting against such a well-qualified nominee, and they failed miserably. Penny Nance, CEP & President of Concerned Women for America (CWA), said: In […]
