A Prayerful Response to Pride Month

In the Line of Fire

It’s June, and that means that everywhere you turn, you’ll be confronted with LGBTQ+ flags and banners and memes and displays. But rather than get frustrated by this constant, in-your-face display, let’s turn it into a call for prayer. That’s why I posted on June 3: Prayer is our greatest spiritual weapon and the most […]

Yes, Free Palestine—From Hamas

In the Line of Fire

After his victorious bout in a major combat sports event this past Saturday night, UFC fighter Bassil Hafez said, “There is something I wanna say. I have been having it in my heart for a long time. I don’t support genocide. I don’t support innocent women and children being killed for war and for money

How Should We Respond to European Recognition of a Palestinian State?

In the Line of Fire

On May 22, the nations of Norway, Spain and Ireland announced their intentions to recognize a Palestinian state. As reported in the Epoch Times, the announcement prompted “Israel to immediately recall its ambassadors to the three nations.” How should we respond? As described by the leaders of these three countries, they are calling for, “Two

Germany Ignoring Horror of Exploiting Children

In the Line of Fire

In an absolutely indefensible, morally reprehensible ruling, Germany has greatly reduced the legal consequences of child pornography. There is no universe in which such a ruling can be justified. The very thought of it is despicable. As reported on the feminist website Reduux, “Germany’s Parliament (Bundestag) has received the votes necessary to remove a section

What the Church Could Learn From LGBTQ+ Activists

In the Line of Fire

In October 2007 I delivered a series of lectures on the subject of “Homosexuality, the Church and Society.” These lectures were held at the Booth Playhouse in the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center in the heart of Charlotte, North Carolina, and they attracted considerable attention from the local media. One of the lectures was titled, “What

Outrage Over a Catholic Commencement Speech at a Catholic College

In the Line of Fire

While a petition calling for the firing of Harrison Butker, one of the greatest placekickers in the NFL, has gained more than 100,000 signatures, sales of his jersey are skyrocketing. Why all the controversy? This past Sunday, Butker, who plays for the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs and is a traditional Catholic, delivered the

When Being Pro-Palestinian Means the End of Israel

In the Line of Fire

It is important to remember that many of those protesting Israel’s war in Gaza are not simply advocating for a cease-fire or a two-state solution. They are advocating for the end of Israel. This, of course, is the obvious meaning of the “river to the sea” chant. But what is implied in the chant is

Confirmation That the World Has Lost Its Mind

In the Line of Fire

While my assistant drove me home from the airport Sunday night, I scanned some headlines on the Breitbart website, reading them aloud. If you needed confirmation that the world has lost its mind, if there was there in plain sight. One headline announced: “WOKE FAIL: IRISH EUROVISION VOTERS AWARDED ISRAEL SECOND-MOST POINTS, DESPITE BAMBIE THUG

God’s Sovereignty and the Choosing of Israel

In the Line of Fire, Opinion

Why did God choose the people of Israel to be a “royal priesthood” and a “holy nation” (Ex. 19:6, ESV)? Was it because of something inherently good in them? Was it because they were better than other peoples? The Lord answered this question directly, saying, “The Lord did not set his affection on you and

The Deadly Cost of Lesbianism and Feminism

In the Line of Fire

According to a major study by the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute, “bisexual women die, on average, nearly 40% younger than heterosexual women, while homosexual women die 20% sooner.” These are tragic numbers, numbers that should concern all of us, regardless of our attitudes toward lesbianism and bisexuality. If you care about people, this is
