In most of the commentary written about the late Margaret Thatcher, little has been said about her strong Christian faith.

A huge complex has been uncovered near what could be the birthplace of Abraham. The site in Iraq was discovered by a team of British archaeologists near the city of Ur.

Tens of thousands of health care professionals, union workers and community organizers are being hired as "navigators" to help Americans choose Obamacare options, beginning October 1.

On Easter Sunday one might expect to hear a biblically-based sermon about the resurrection of Jesus Christ. That's not what President Obama and his family heard at St. John's Church across from the White House.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention reports there were nearly 20 million new venereal infections in the U.S. in 2008, bringing the total number of sexually transmitted infections at the time to more than 110 million. That's one-third of the country.

We are living in a modern-day Corinth where everything is to be tolerated. When there are no constraints, anything goes. There is nothing to stop this or anything else. Fairness, not God, now defines everything and God is giving us over to a corrupt mind and a started spirit.

On Friday, government must cut spending, but of course it is doing no such thing. It will have to reduce the rate of increased spending, which to Washington is a cut.

You would think the maiden speech by our new Secretary of State would bear some semblance to reality; something about the dangerous state of the world and America's role in it. If you thought that you would be wrong. Instead, John Kerry spoke about climate change.

No matter how much evidence piles up, governments in the UK and here in America are not confronting the threat of Islamic terrorism among us.

There has never been an archaeological discovery in Israel that has disproved the Bible. Not one. And since archaeology constantly confirms biblical truth, what the Bible says about Jesus and his redemptive life, death and resurrection is also true.

He's said it before and he'll probably say it again. In his State of the Union address Wednesday night, President Obama said all his proposals would not add a single dime to the debt. Really?

It was remarkable to hear the president's basic philosophy undermined by a brilliant doctor. We need more people like that who speak the truth.
