SCOTUS Waffles on 1st Amendment
Nazi Germany and communist countries are no fun because it's hard to be under the omnipresent eye of the thought police and the censors. SCOTUS cracked open the door to the censors, especially the more sophisticated and coercive sort—which is precisely what this case was all about.

Diversity - Jesus Style
You've heard about celebrating diversity, which usually entails a lumping of sexual proclivities with cultural and ethnic differences. How then do we cross cultural boundaries without falling into a pattern of judgmentalism, looking down on others, and jingoism? Jesus crossed a universe to minister to sinners. Would you cross the road to meet with somebody from a different background who needs Jesus?Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.

Shield Laws, DIY Abortions, and Civil War
There is far less need for abortion clinics now, given that about half of the kill pill abortions are do-it-yourself (DIY). The US Supreme Court isn’t about to curtail access to abortions by mail. Half of Wyoming abortions are conducted by the kill pill by mail program. But Colorado is committed to shielding citizens who reach across borders for their kills. What should Texas do? If Colorado slave traders kidnapped Texas citizens in order to enslave them into the sex trade (and the slave traders were protected by Colorado law) . . . what would Texas do? Saul’s policies of accommodation and compromise on principle aren’t going to produce any meaningful repentance.

Why Strict Homeschool Families Implode
We come upon yet another public story of a Christian fundamentalist with an externalist facade imploding all over the TV screen to the delight of the TLC reality show producers. There is a form of religiosity that lacks the power thereof, and the story is only told a billion times over around the world. Considering the extraordinary number of catastrophes coming upon a great many homeschooling and fundamentalist families, we lay out the five core issues that are too often missing among those who appear to be the most religious.Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.

Christians Oppose In Vitro Fertilization
The Southern Baptists are leading the charge against the unethical practices of IVF. But that only addresses 0.1% of the problem of abortions by conception control and intervention. We explain why IVF and abortifacients are contrary to the laws of God. But how does a Christian redeem twisted systems like polygamy, slavery, concubinage, and IVF?Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.

Bukele to Carlson: The End of Democracy
El Salvador’s president fears God, but then he forecasts the end of democracy and the end of western civilization in an interview with Tucker Carlson.

The Spiritual Revival of Spurgeon's England
Charles Spurgeon was the most-published author of the 19th century, and his life marks the last major spiritual revival of England. But, it was the downgrade that killed him.

How Christianity Grows
Another mega-church pastors steps down. After a 40-year experiment with the mega-ministry thing, we've finally come to the conclusion that the kingdom of God does not come with observation. The growth is much more under the radar, quiet, and seemingly inconspicuous. The mega-power game, the centralization of control, just doesn't work for the church of Jesus.Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.

The Most Pro-Life States Tipping to Abortion
The most pro-life states in America (on most recent polls) are Idaho, Utah, Arkansas, and South Dakota. But the voters in these pro-life states tend to go pro-abortion when they vote on referendums. What gives? We grapple with this question and provide a few answers. What's wrong with the heartland of America? Reform, however, must begin with churches who will take the principled stand—personhood from conception.Author, pastor, podcaster, husband, father, and grandfather, Kevin Swanson, enters the arena with the takeaway word for the day.
