The Louisiana Senate on Friday resuscitated the Stop Harming Our Kids Act (HB 648), after the Senate Health and Welfare Committee killed it in a Wednesday vote. Buoyed by constituent support, the bill now faces a final dash to the finish before the state legislature adjourns sine die on Thursday of this week.

Everyone has a religion, a set of core beliefs that form one's priorities and values and order behavior and the use of one's time. For many, religious devotion might not involve God (or a god). Whatever one worships - one's own desires, material prosperity, a career, social standing, etc. - is his or her deity. Advocates of unqualified, elective abortion on demand are devotees of a particular kind of religion. 

For most CEOs, Pride Month couldn't have come at a more inopportune time. As companies like Target, Bud Light, and others desperately try to control the flames burning down their brands, this annual test of LGBT loyalty is putting most businesses in a position they'd rather not be in: outraging an already agitated consumer base or ticking off the lobby they've worked two decades to appease. Faced with the choice of becoming unprofitable or politically unacceptable, what will the big companies do?

The FRC Stand Courageous Men's Ministry Team was on the road again this past weekend in Houston, Texas. Hosted by Pastor Gregg Matte and his team at Houston's First Baptist Church, over 800 men came to hear our stable of speakers as well as attend a number of packed-out breakouts.

Due to shifting social norms, a statistical majority of Gen Z is uninterested in marriage. Are they giving up on love entirely? Certainly not.

From the earliest days of recorded history, distortions of human sexuality have been one of Satan's chief instruments for distracting men and women from the truth and beauty of God and His good gift of sexual intimacy. In light of a world full of sexual distortions, what are faithful followers of Jesus to do?

When the rest of the world lost its corporate marbles, conservatives liked to think that there was one place that would never let them down: Chick-fil-A. As far as they were concerned, the churchgoers' chicken of choice had been solidly built on Truett Cathy's strong family values. While other CEOs took their brands in wildly liberal directions, Christians took solace in the fact that at least one franchise could stand against the mob. Now, with the news that Chick-fil-A is catering to the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) crowd, customers feel deeply betrayed. But the reality is, the chicken empire's capitulation started years before this.

The head of a facility that carries out so-called "gender-affirming care" has published a study confirming that transgender surgeries do not improve mental health and make people feel lonelier than those who avoided surgical intervention altogether.

All June long, corporations and cultural institutions practically trip over themselves to promote their involvement in Pride Month, putting many Christians (or people who simply hold to a traditional sexual ethic) in difficult spots. When we try to watch a show at the end of a workday, our entertainment platforms drive us to Pride Month content. When buying a tube of toothpaste at our local big-box store, Pride Month displays greet us. When we watch sports, teams wear rainbow patches to celebrate Pride Month. The celebration of LGBTQ identity feels ubiquitous, and belies the claim that our public square is "neutral" and closed to assertive worldviews.

A female inmate suffered serious injuries during a beating inside a women's correctional facility after she refused to have sex with a man who identifies as a transgender woman, according to an eyewitness. The witness called the transgender-on-female assault an example of "misogyny within misogyny" from a female prison with a controversial history of housing violent men, including child molesters and one murderer who drank his victim's blood and calls himself "Lucifer's Maiden servant."

As concerns over rising crime and the mental health of minors continue to climb, a new wave of legislation aimed at reintroducing America's youth to biblical values in school is surging.
