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 One Motivation
As women who are concerned for America, why do we do what we do? Why support lobbying efforts, write letters to Congress, make phone calls to the White House, and give our money to support these endeavors? And why do we pray? It’s because we know the one true God. We support human life from […]

Capitol Hill Brief — Campus Free Speech
What is happening in America’s college campuses should be troubling for all of us. Not only is a radical liberal philosophy overwhelmingly predominant at most state universities, but now they’re trying to silence the few conservative voices that are invited to speak. Before conservative speakers can even address students at these schools, radical […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Happy Mother’s Day

Capitol Hill Brief — ObamaCare Gone
“If you like your plan, you can keep your plan,” they told us. But ObamaCare took health care out of the hands of patients and doctors and put it into the hands of Washington bureaucrats. Millions of Americans suddenly found themselves with cancelled plans and ever-increasing premiums. Not to mention the fact that it […]
Capitol Hill Brief — Support the New Health Care Bill
There’s a new President in town, and the atmosphere in Washington is tense. Especially as it relates to the debate to repeal and replace ObamaCare. President Trump is doing everything within his power to deliver on his big campaign promise of a full repeal of ObamaCare. The Democrats, for their part, are doing everything […]
Good First Step on Religious Freedom by President Trump
The pressure to criticize, cynically mock and downplay anything President Donald Trump does is considerable these days. I, like many, many, Americans have decided to give the frustrated their space to vent, while I focus on bringing about positive change in the best way I can. Today, that means I want to praise President Trump […]

Capitol Hill Brief — Religious Discrimination
Yesterday, I told you about a very important case before the Supreme Court. Trinity Lutheran v. Pauley is the only religious freedom case before the high court this term. It is a case about a religious preschool that was rejected from a state program that provided reimbursement grants to purchase rubberized surface material for children’s […]

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 […]
How the Left’s “Inclusion” Rhetoric Excludes
I have been bombarded by the media pushing a leftist political agenda my entire life. Since my high school years, when I first noticed their deliberate attempts to push their particular perspective on me, they seem to be getting even more crass and up front in their efforts. I remember the first time Snapchat got […]
Fact: Both Republicans and Democrats Support Gorsuch
It might be hard for some to believe, given the continuous drumbeat by the media, but Judge Neil Gorsuch has bipartisan support to be confirmed as the next U.S. Supreme Court Justice. He, of course, has the full support of Republican senators, but Sens. Joe Donnelly (D-Indiana), Joe Manchin (D-West Virginia), and Heidi Heitkamp (D-North […]
