NUUK, Greenland — Native Greenlander Amarok Petersen was 27 years old when she learned the gut-wrenching truth about why she couldn’t have children — and that Denmark was to blame. Suffering from severe uterine problems, a medical doctor discovered an IUD birth control device in her body that she didn’t know she had.

In one shocking exchange, Jones fantasized about putting “two bullets to the head” of then-Republican House Speaker Todd Gilbert in a hypothetical scenario comparing...

Someone might have the idea that they are too far gone, they have done so much that God's grace is not for them. But, you have to realize that whatever you have done is no longer the issue. The issue now is what Jesus has already done for you, yes you. Romans 5:6 reads, For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. And you clearly see in verse 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Jesus died for the ungodly, while...

In record time, Dutch student Eva Vlaardingerbroek has become an international far right influencer. Her tweets on X are gaining an audience of millions from retweets by Elon Musk. But who is this young woman and what is her message? Little in her past seemed to indicate that Eva Vlaardingerbroek would have so much influence at the age of only 27. Her career to date has been comprised of short-lived extremist engagements, from her membership of the far right Forum for Democracy and a brief love affair with party leader Thierry Baudet; her links to a legal firm; and her...

011814As Ordinary Time (tempus per annum) opens up, the lectionary continues to “introduce” Christ to us. The Christmas cycle now done, we must ask, “Who is Jesus Christ? Who is this savior who has been born for us?” In today’s Gospel, John the Baptist elaborates on this. John’s words are brief, but they are packed with Christological teaching. In this Gospel we learn at least five things about Jesus. We learn that He is prefigured, preexistent, preeminent, powerful, and is the presence of God. Let’s look at each one. -------- I Prefigured – John the Baptist saw Jesus coming toward...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) revealed that Democrats would “restore most of the cuts” that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had made. While taking part in a discussion at the Center for American Progress, Schumer received a question about what he “can do about bringing” the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) back, after DOGE came in and made cuts. “If you look at the budget actually, we’re working on right now — and we’ll have the T-HUD budget, you know, transportation and HUD budget, we restore most of the cuts and even go higher than previous...

The fatal encounter has...
