Facebook Is No Substitute for Church

by Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Facebook can be a great tool to keep friends (old and new) and family in touch. But it should never be viewed as a substitute for church or family or direct human interaction.

Words from Our Nation’s Founders on God and Government

by Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
We're constantly hearing about the "separation of church and state," by which people often mean the "separation of God and state." Listen to the founders of this nation in their own words...we see they did not intend to create a godless, secular wasteland.

Free Speech vs. "Hate Speech"

Karen VanTil Gushta Ph.D.
Some are saying that so-called hate speech should be silenced and does not deserve First Amendment protection. America has a long-standing tradition of observing freedom of speech. Is that about to change?

The recent passing away of Anne Kennedy, Dr. Kennedy's widow, reminds us of what a gift we have in the assurance of our salvation. But there are skeptics who don't believe heaven is necessarily real. Because Jesus conquered the grave, we know heaven is for real.

The War Against the Christian Family

Karen VanTil Gushta, Ph.D.
D. James Kennedy Ministries believes that parental authority was delegated by God Himself, with the family being the only institution able to best attain the welfare of children. This principle, once commonly accepted in our society, is now under vigorous attack.

Memorial Day 2017: “Freedom Is Not Bought Cheaply”

by Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Memorial Day is often celebrated as just another day off. But a lot of Americans don't take the time that we should to thank the Lord for those who laid down their lives, that we might free. Perhaps, as the influence of Christianity seems to lessen, so also lessens our nation's patriotism.

by Jerry Newcombe, D.Min.
Too often we spend so much of our time and money in order to accumulate needless stuff. As Christians we are saved to serve. What we need most of all is a touch from God through His Son, Jesus Christ.
