MacKenzie Price, a podcaster and influencer who co-founded Alpha, has called classrooms “the next global battlefield.” “I’ve seen the future,” she wrote on social media,...

WASHINGTON (AP) — Eric Hildenbrand has noticed prices continue to rise this year, even with President Donald Trump in the White House.

It seems like prices are dropping. Things are getting better, but I don’t necessarily see it here.”Voters like Hildenbrand, whose...

VIDEOThe BEST way to sightsee in Lisbon is on top of a double deck tour bus. You will have a panaromaic view of the city which makes for easy video recording and still camera shots. Also, as you can see, the streets of Lisbon are very narrow which makes it tough for most Americans to navigate while worrying about scratching or causing even worse damage to their rental cars. The weather on the day we toured Lisbon atop the tour bus was absolutely perfect with nary a cloud in the sky. At any time you want to get off the...

“Another of the disciples said to Him, ‘Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.’ But Jesus said to him, ‘Follow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead’” (Matthew 8:21–22). This man, perhaps a hanger-on who had followed Jesus around the countryside for a while, makes what seems at first to be a reasonable statement.

It was and is a common Middle Eastern figure of speech referring to a child’s (mainly a son’s) responsibility to help with...
