In 1888 Mark Twain (born this day, Australian time, in 1835) said, “Irreverence is the champion of liberty and its only sure defense.” Now POTUS 45 is an upmarket version of Archie Bunker in the White House. He knows what Nixon’s Silent Majority still wants and he cuts through and communicates it. This old majority’s grip on power is not as strong as it was. But Donald Trump has been underestimated in politics ever since he came down the Golden Escalator. “It is a blessed thing to have an imagination that can always make you satisfied, no matter how you...

Former President Barack Obama sharply criticized the unexpectedly large number of Hispanics who voted for President Trump's reelection, contending that "out of a distorted sense of values they mistakenly overlooked Trump's racism and cast ballots for him because he is opposed to abortion.

As an example, Obama said "the pernicious effect of this warped thinking can be seen in...

"By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been encircled for seven days" (Heb. 11:30). Faith is the key to spiritual conquest. Forty years had lapsed since the Israelites refused to enter the Promised Land. That unbelieving generation had perished in the wilderness. Now Joshua was leading a new generation into the land. The first obstacle they faced was Jericho—a well- fortified city that was near the mouth of the Jordan River. Some city walls of that day were wide enough at the top to allow two chariots to ride side-by-side. That was probably true of Jericho...

As Christ’s witnesses, we are called to a seemingly impossible task. We are asking the world to lay down the things that are most dear to them: their sins. In their eyes, the Christian walk — a life of purity and holiness — looks like a form of slavery. Our idea of heaven seems to them more like hell.

It calls...
