Last week, the Trump administration put three children who are U.S. citizens on deportation flights with their mothers. According to the family lawyer, “one of them is a 4-year-old boy with stage 4 cancer who was deported without medication or the ability to contact their doctors.”

"What did Trump just say about Jesus that made some Christians absolutely lose their minds?"

On January 22, 2025, Live Action founder and president Lila Rose took part in a Georgetown University abortion debate with author and attorney Dr. Mary Anne Franks. The two discussed whether induced abortion — the direct and intentional killing of a preborn child — should be legal. Moderators for the debate were Elizabeth Oliver, President of Georgetown Right to Life (Class of 2026) and Max Wolff-Merovick (Class of 2028). In her opening statement, Rose said, “The question we are addressing tonight is this: ‘Should abortion be legal?’ Or, to put it more simply, ‘Should murder be legal?’” “The word ‘abortion’...

Only 10 days into President Donald Trump’s second term it’s abundantly clear that Christians who opposed his presence in the White House and condemned their brethren for supporting it have some repenting to do.Never Trumpers spent the last decade weaponizing their faith to demonize Christian Trump supporters. By the time the 2024 election rolled around, they had proudly endorsed the radical, openly anti-Christian Joe Biden stand-in for president. According to them, mean tweets and a bad spray tan were far worse than a regime that made a point out of throwing praying grandmas in prison.Concerns about Trump’s personal conduct 10...

Yes, they actually posted this. The proper response to this, in the spirit of the Prophet Elijah mocking the priests of Baal, goes something like this: But it's worth reading a few of the more civilized replies: The email: A person with common sense might conclude that Christianity Today has a lot less to do with Christ these days and more to do with left-wing talking points from 1985. It's be an insult to spend my time debunking the whole article, but Trump isn't "upending life" for refugees. He's rounding up criminals like this: WATCH: Dr. Phil joined Tom Homan...

What do you get when you have a gaggle of female pastors in support of Kamala Harris? The answer is numerous attempts at justifying abortion. In a recent Evangelicals For Harris women’s “prayer call,” abortion became a top priority on why Evangelicals should support Kamala Harris for president. Evangelical Dark Web infiltrated the prayer call and has clips to unveil. The call was hosted by Lisa Sharon Harper who is a theologically liberal author with pronouns in bio. She runs the company Freedom Road which conducts struggle sessions. Panelists include Sandra Van Opstal, a female pastor; Patricia Ruiz Cantu, a...

The political action committee Evangelicals for Harris rolled out an over $1 million ad campaign Thursday that features footage of the late evangelist Billy Graham and suggests former President Donald Trump exhibits the character of evil men in the last days. The ad, which will play out over the next three weeks in battleground states, features a sermon Graham preached from 2 Timothy 3:1-5 , in which Paul describes the terrible nature of the last days and warns "men will become utterly self-centered and greedy for money, full of big words."The ad interspersed brief clips of Trump making comments that...

Recently released data points to a possible reason for the reported increase in abortions in the United States two years after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and ruled abortion is not a constitutional right. According to the latest data from the pro-choice Society of Family Planning's #WeCount research project, the monthly average of abortions between January through March was 98,990. The group found between 94,670 and 102,350 abortions monthly, with the national monthly total of abortions reportedly exceeding 100,000 in January for the first time since #WeCount began. States with the highest average number of abortions per...

Imagine, if you will, a group of people so detached from reality that they’ve decided Kamala Harris—a politician whose life and career is a veritable checklist of anti-Christian sentiment and policies—is actually a “faithful and committed Christian.” Enter “Evangelicals for Harris,” a group that’s apparently dedicated to rewriting history and redefining what it means to follow Christ. The group “Evangelicals for Harris” is a project created by Jim Ball, who previously founded a similar initiative, “Evangelicals for Biden.” This organization is part of a larger network called Faith Voters, a 501(c)4 organization dedicated to promoting a radical leftist political agenda...

Did you know that there’s actually a “Christians for Kamala” conference? Yes, you read that right. In the ever-bizarre world of progressive Christianity, this event is being billed as a gathering of believers united in support of Kamala Harris. I couldn’t believe it either when I first heard about it. I mean, Christians, really? Casting their votes to expand abortion, hand kids over to drag queens, and mutilate them without telling their parents? Like, what biblical principle is that? Oh, wait. These aren’t Christians. I should have known better. Silly me. Organized by the notorious John Pavlovitz—who, by the way,...

As we watch our world spiral downward into Nazi-era antisemitism, we need to recognize that the side effect of this will be and is a disdain, and eventually hatred, for those in support of the nation of Israel. This will eventually migrate into a hatred of those who love not only the Jews but also the King of the Jews, Jesus of Nazareth. Revelation 6:9-11 – “When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God and for the testimony which they held. And they cried...

In a prophecy written by Zechariah about 3,000 years ago, we learn, “Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that causes reeling to all the peoples all around. Now the one in siege against Jerusalem will also be against Judah. But it will be in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who heave it up will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it” (Zechariah 12:2-3.) It is very unfortunate, but it is part of the word of God and it is...

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said Sunday that he expects to move a package including aid for Ukraine with “some important innovations” when the House returns from recess. In an interview on “Sunday Night in America With Trey Gowdy,” Johnson stressed the difficult position he’s in, with a historically narrow House majority, but said he was working throughout the current work period to come up with a package and plans to put it on the floor when the House gavels back into session.

Then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump railed against “so-called Christians” and “pieces of s—” evangelicals who supported Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in the 2016 Iowa caucuses, according to a forthcoming book. At the time, allies of Cruz had been making hay of Trump’s flub before an audience at Virginia’s Liberty University, a conservative evangelical college, in which he botched a question about his favorite Bible verse and replied that it came from the book of “Two Corinthians,” rather than “Second Corinthians.” “The laughter and ridicule were embarrassing enough for Trump,” Tim Alberta writes in his new book, “The Kingdom, the Power,...

JERUSALEM — The Greek Orthodox Church on Wednesday accused Israeli police of infringing on the freedom of worshippers with “heavy-handed” restrictions on how many pilgrims can attend the “Holy Fire” ceremony amid soaring tensions. Israeli police said the limits are needed for safety during Saturday’s celebration at the ancient Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the 12th-century holy site where Jesus is believed to have been crucified, buried and resurrected. Saturday’s “Holy Fire” celebration comes during an unusual spate of violence in the Old City, touched off by an Israeli police raid on Jerusalem’s most sensitive holy site, the compound that’s...

The “HeGetsUs” Christian campaign does not want to take a stance on abortion, claiming the issue has proven too divisive and loses sight of Jesus. “The debate over abortion is a great example of how the real Jesus too often gets lost, overlooked or distorted in debates over political and social issues,” a spokesperson for HeGetsUs told Fox News. […] “HeGetsUs” saw a spike in interest after purchasing two advertisements during the 2023 Superbowl game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. […] The $20 million advertising campaign, funded in part by the family behind religious craft store chain...

Oh, it was such fun while it lasted, wasn’t it? Pretend Christian Kanye West deceived millions of biblically illiterate and lukewarm Laodicean Christians with his phony ‘Sunday Service’ garbage, where Ye was glorified and Jesus came in a close second. Remember how hard on me you were when I pointed out to you that he was deceiving you to make millions? Well, Kanye West made about $250 millions off of you people who bought his stuff. Remember you said that he was just a “baby Christian” and to give him time? Time’s up, welcome to reality. Kanye West marched in...

We often hear that evangelical support for President Trump is hurting our witness here in America. Is it hurting our witness overseas as well? In a follow-up to Christianity Today’s editorial by Mark Galli calling for the removal of President Trump, CT president Timothy Dalrymple noted, “We are also a global ministry” and “partly on behalf of that global body, we can no longer stay silent.” Is it true, then, that American evangelical support for Trump is hurting our international witness? Dalrymple wrote...

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Two Catholic bishops joined almost a dozen leaders of various Christian groups in Baltimore denouncing tweets by President Donald Trump, who in late July called Maryland’s 7th Congressional District a “disgusting, rat and rodent infested” place where “no human being would want to live.” Archbishop William E. Lori and Auxiliary Bishop Denis J. Madden of Baltimore signed the letter dated July 29 addressed to the president, and also signed by bishops from the city’s Episcopal and Lutheran church, as well as Methodist, evangelical and Presbyterian leaders, among others. “Recently, much to our dismay and profound sadness, you...

A dozen churches in the Los Angeles area have declared themselves sanctuaries for migrant families as the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown is scheduled to begin. Guillermo Torres, with Clergy and Laity United for Economic Justice, says more churches have become involved than ever before, which he attributes to a growing sense of indignation at the administration’s actions on immigration. […] Many houses of worship in other cities and states have also declared themselves immigrant sanctuaries. …
