The Hyde Amendment

As the Hyde amendment turns 40, preserving and making permanent the Hyde Amendment is one of the greatest tasks of the pro-life movement.  It is not an exaggeration to say that Hyde is the only thing standing between abortion and full federal funding.  If Hyde does not stand, our taxpayer money goes directly to funding […]

Searching for Douglass and King

Most people of good faith grieve as they see the events unfold in Charlotte this week. The senseless violence is pointless. I look at these kids aimlessly protesting, and I’m reminded of the events captured by the Apostle Matthew in the ninth chapter of his Gospel.

Time to Tear Down America’s Idol

Yes, I am going there. This will not make me popular. But it must be said. It’s time for all decent Americans to stop worshipping at the altar of football (and sports in general, for that matter).

Democrats Pull Out Their Ace on Garland

It is not Vice President Joe Biden.  Let me get that out of the way.  On the issue of the nomination of Judge Merrick Garland to the United States Supreme Court, Vice President Biden is the Democrats’ liability, not their ace.

10 Principles about Healing From Abortion

Abortion. Almost one in three women in America has now faced it; almost everyone is touched by it in some way.  It has changed our world more than any other issue in that the very inhabitants of the world have been lost.  In mourning such a gargantuan loss, people can forget to consider that we […]

For America (Day 62)

Gracious Lord, God of glory and peace, Forgive us our sins. We have failed You, Most Holy One.

Legislative Efforts to Reduce the Number of Abortions

In 1973 Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton invalidated state abortion bans and made abortion for any reason legal on the federal level in the United States throughout the pregnancy.  But certain state restrictions on abortion were still possible.  In the next few years, the pro-life movement mobilized against these rulings.  In 1980 a […]

Are Humans an Invasive Species?

Every summer, my family and I make a trip to Calvert County to visit Old Spout Farm, a historic property that our cousins own on the banks of St. Leonard’s Creek.  For many years, they have urged us to visit the local Calvert County museum to experience their science exhibits.  This summer, we finally did, […]

Grassley: No hearings on Supreme Court nominee this year

Janae Stracke, CWA’s Communications Coordinator and a native Iowan, attended Senator Grassley’s last town hall meeting for the year in Jones County Iowa yesterday. She spoke on behalf of Concerned Women for America to support the senator and his stance to give “We the People” a voice regarding the next Supreme Court justice appointment. Our voices […]

For America (Day 61)

Your Law, O Lord, is perfect. Your statues wise and sweet to the heart. Your precepts are good; They keep our feet from stumbling. Blessed is the nation that trusts in them, That considers the poor and the widow; That attends to those in prison; That speaks for those who can’t speak for themselves. Therefore, […]

Weiner Again

A few weeks back, I had the opportunity to watch the documentary “Weiner.” It tracks the life of disgraced ex-congressman Anthony Weiner as he tries a political comeback in New York’s gubernatorial race. It is absolutely fascinating, in large part because you get to see Anthony Weiner’s wife, Huma Abedin (who is also Hillary Clinton’s […]

The People v. Obama’s Transgender Mandate

Using government force to bring about liberal policies at any cost seems to be one of President Obama’s favorite past times.  One of his latest moves has been to try to force schools, under the threat of losing vital government funding, to open their restrooms so that transgender students and school workers can use the […]

Planned Parenthood: What Can We Do?

When Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards was called before the House Oversight Committee.  The question of the day was whether Planned Parenthood deserved federal funding (a decision Congress put off by passing a temporary budget until December when the debate on passing a budget will resume). Miss Richards was the only one questioned with Republicans […]

After School Satan? No, Thank you

Through an advertisement video with eerie music, clips of spiders crawling, faces of dolls and little kids, the Satanic Temple introduces its new After School Satan Clubs.

Porn Is The New Sex Trade

Few topics elicit the sort of vitriol you get when you dare attack pornography. Like Gollum guarding his “Precious,” in J.R.R. Tolkien’s masterpiece, porn apologists cannot help but curse you as those “Bagginses” when you try to point out the incredible harm porn causes them personally and society in general.

Valuing Life in the Special Needs Community

Every life is a gift. Each of us is fearfully and wonderfully made. If our society advocates for equality and opportunity for all, we must ensure the right to life, especially for those who cannot speak up for themselves. Nearly 90 percent of babies in the womb diagnosed with a disability like Down syndrome are […]

A Generation Without Chests

Why are we so easily rattled? How have we become so soft? When you look around today at all these young men and women in the prime of their lives spending countless hours playing “Pokémon Go,” one has to consider the implications.
