Breakpoint

The biological realities of men and women are not social constructs. By ignoring these realities, prisons in the U.S. and Canada are putting incarcerated women at increased risk of rape or violence.

According to the National Bureau of Economic Research, there was an unintended side effect of the COVID-19 pandemic: a slight increase in U.S. fertility rates.

We think it's time to call Christians back to a bigger, older, and more thrilling way of seeing our world—of seeing Earth as crammed with heaven, because it is. That's the theme of our upcoming Colson Center National Conference, May 19-21, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Registration is now open at colsonconference.org.

When it comes to secular Christmas music there is the good, the bad and the ugly. John and Maria discuss them all. And how could Christians take part in a shocking White House celebration of the desecration of marriage?

Maybe it's time for Disney to listen to the words of a particularly wise old baboon. "The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it or learn from it."

By linking opposition to the Respect for Marriage Act to (rightly) ostracized ideas like racism, advocates, like the president, are setting the stage for leveraging hate crime legislation and other cultural tools to criminalize dissent.

To those who insist babies in the womb aren't fully human or can be traded around like products, as in the case of surrogacy, science is stubborn. The more we learn, the clearer it becomes: Preborn children have rights.

Social revolutionaries who want doctors or teachers or bureaucrats to step between parents and children on sexual issues are revealing their hostility not only to parental rights but to human nature and how we were created.

Every year, the Christian students at Oxford University put on an evening of carols, singing hymns like "Oh Holy Night" and "Joy to the World," followed by a guest speaker who unpacks the hope of Advent.

Every follower of Christ is on the front lines when they take their faith into every walk of life, as "salt and light" to a world that desperately needs the redemptive power of the Gospel. This month, we would love to hear your experience with the Colson Center. If any of our resources—the Breakpoint podcast, the Strong Women podcast, Upstream with Shane Morris, the Colson Fellows, or Colson Educators—impacted the way you think and live, please email us at info@colsoncenter.org.
