In past articles and on many Line of Fire broadcasts, I have expressed my strong reservations about Donald Trump and the current direction of the GOP (most recently here), so my potential vote for him/them would be with caveats and concerns. But under no circumstances could I possibly countenance a vote for Kamala Harris. Writing in October 2020, conservative author David Kupelian took issue with Pastor John Piper, who encouraged Christians not to vote for either Trump or Biden.

And guess what the DNC will champion in August? A major theme of the Republican National Convention was illegal immigration or the invasion of migrants across our nation’s southern border.Speaker after speaker elaborated on the migrant invasion while The New York Times midway into the convention ran an article stating these claims were exaggerated. RNC speakers were also careful to state that they supported legal immigration yet these statements were ignored as critics from the left accused the convention of being anti-immigration. Examples of the anti-immigration charge were common on the PBS show, ‘Democracy Now’ despite host Amy Goodman’s superficial...

I am the boogeyman. Yes, according to the LGBTQ+ activists and their sympathizers, I am the terror that haunts their dreams. What am I? I’m a psychotherapist that offers help to individuals with undesired same-sex eroticization and want to explore change in their sexual attractions and behaviors. The activists label me a “conversion therapist,” expecting that to be sufficient to vilify me. My supervillain origin story is that God placed a burden on me in college when I saw my peers who struggle with unwanted same-sex attraction and behavior. These men were in a bind. If they shared with our...

It has only been a few weeks since I wrote about the attitude of leftists in the leadership of the Catholic Church toward African dioceses that refuse to accept the blessing of same-sex relationships. Pope Francis condescendingly believes that African church leaders will eventually bend their knees to the Pride Cult.If you think the pope is turning his back on faithful African believers, you ain’t seen nothing yet. A recommendation from a Church of England committee is ready to make the Catholic Church look like a bunch of amateurs. Forget expecting African Christians to accommodate homosexuality — how about condemning...

Friends, the Capuchin friars welcomed a broken man into their home, their routine, and their lives. In showing Christ’s tender love and mercy to Shia LaBeouf, they saw a man reinvigorated and ultimately welcomed into the fullness of the Church. It’s a beautiful story, modeled time and again throughout the ages by the brotherly example of Jesus, St. Francis of Assisi, Padre Pio, these brothers, and countless more. The more you give of your life and your love, the more the divine grace increases in you. As with all conversions, there’s so much more than we might readily be able...

There are many followers of Jesus in America today who do not describe themselves as “Christians.” It is not because they are ashamed of their faith. Instead, it is because the word “Christian” has become so diluted that almost anyone can call themselves a Christian, regardless of how they live or what they believe. To say, “I’m a Christian” does not necessarily convey a specific set of beliefs or moral standards, and this has been the case in America for many years now.

When Trevor Bickford was 19 years old, on Dec. 31, 2022, he ventured to Times Square along with multitudes of New Year’s Eve revelers, but he was not interested in joining the festivities.

There were people who warned that this kind of thing would start happening in America. They were vilified, marginalized, and deplatformed as “Islamophobes.” But like so many who were dismissed in recent years as “hatemongers” and “conspiracy theorists,” they were right all along.
