I Signed Up For HelloFresh Meal Kits. Turns Out They’re Rated X.

A 21st-century mom who wants to emulate the Proverbs 31 woman may not have a household of servants to help shoulder the countless tasks of daily life, but she does have modern conveniences that ladies of the Old Testament could never have conceived — dishwashers, robot vacuums, drive-thru pharmacies, and meal kit delivery services like HelloFresh.As a busy mom who wants to make sure my kids are eating healthy meals at home but also wants time to write articles like this one, my family has subscribed to HelloFresh as our food delivery service on and off for nearly 10 years. We have especially come to rely on it to get dinner on the table as I’ve been undergoing cancer treatments for the last year and a half.But at the start of Pride month, HelloFresh added an unpleasant assignment to my already overloaded schedule — find a new meal delivery service that doesn’t come with a side of anal penetration jokes.On June 5, in honor of homosexuality, transgenderism, and the rest of the sexual predilections repre

Teen Takeovers Turn Blue Cities Into ‘Scenes From The Purge’

A growing wave of juvenile crime and “teen takeovers” in major Democrat-run cities is prompting renewed scrutiny of leftist policing policies, with critics warning that years of anti-law enforcement rhetoric have created an atmosphere of escalating disorder.The phenomenon has erupted in cities including Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere in recent months, with incidents often coordinated through TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and other social media platforms.Col. Frank Carpenter, chief of police in Chesterfield County, Virginia, told The New York Post these scenes resemble “The Purge,” a dystopian horror film franchise depicting cities descending into lawlessness. Police sources say that massive groups of teenagers have increasingly overwhelmed officers, shut down public spaces, and engaged in assaults, robberies, vandalism, and shootings.As with Virginia, these incidents are especially concentrated in Democrat-led cities. Chicago, in particular, has emerged as one of the mo

Pastors Have A Duty To Rebuke James Talarico

A recurring theme throughout Scripture is that those who are not following the Lord, who are, in fact, in open rebellion against him, will nevertheless claim to be his standard bearers in the hopes of harnessing his power for their cause.We see it in 1 Samuel 4-5 when disobedient Israel decides to carry the Ark of the Covenant into battle, believing its presence will guarantee their victory.We see it in Jeremiah 7 when the Israelites are sure that the Lord is on their side, despite their idol worship, because they possess the temple.We see it in Acts 19 when seven men who know nothing of Christ try to cast out demons in his name and are left naked, bloody, and fleeing for their lives.And we see it today in the Senate candidacy of James Talarico, the Democrats’ great white hope for convincing Texas voters that they, too, are representing Jesus in the public square.The significant electoral advantage Republicans enjoy with Christians — colloquially known as the “God Gap” — has been an acknowledged pro

Career Activist Who Disrupted Minneapolis Worship Service Also Targ...

A professional protester known for harassing worshippers at Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s church in Washington, D.C., has emerged as a key figure in the disruption of Sunday’s service at Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota.William Kelly, a self-described combat veteran, was captured on video storming into the sanctuary with a mob of other activists associated with Black Lives Matter and the Racial Justice Network. The demonstrators chanted “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” and screamed at congregants, labeling them “fake Christians” because one of the church’s pastors also serves as an ICE field director. Jonathan Parnell, lead pastor of the Southern Baptist church, called the protestors “shameful” and eventually chose to end the service after some of the children started crying. Kevin Ezell, head of the Southern Baptists’ mission board, said on X that he had spoken to Cities Church staff members who reported that “the kids in the worship service were terrified.” In a later post he added

A Tragic End For A Hollywood Legend

Hollywood was still absorbing the shock of the violent deaths of filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Reiner, when another development further stunned the industry — the Reiners’ 32-year-old son had been arrested and booked on suspicion of their murders. Then entertainment industry insiders began to tell their stories, and it soon became clear — maybe no one should have been surprised. It seems like everyone in LA knew that screenwriter Nick Reiner had been a ticking time bomb for years.Emergency responders were called to the Reiners’ $13.5 million Brentwood mansion shortly after 3:40 p.m. Sunday following a request for medical assistance. When firefighters arrived, they discovered both Rob and Michele Reiner dead inside the home. While the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office has not yet released official causes of death, police have said the case is being investigated as a double homicide. And not just homicide, but the shocking kind that usually winds up as the basis of a movie. The couple s

Religious NGO That Settled Afghan Shooter Condemned Trump For Addit...

A day before 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal opened fire on two National Guardsmen patrolling near the White House, the NGO that reportedly settled the shooter in the United States condemned President Donald Trump for ordering further vetting of refugees.On November 25, World Relief, one of nine voluntary organizations contracted by the State Department to facilitate housing and employment assistance for refugees, issued a press release in response to an internal memo from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) requiring additional scrutiny of all refugees who entered the country during the Biden administration.In the statement, World Relief president and CEO Myal Greene called the additional vetting a “moral and ethical betrayal of due process,” and VP Matt Soerens said that it would “retraumatiz[e]” refugees brought to the United States.The following day, according to witnesses, Lakanwal fired on the guards while shouting, “Allahu akbar.” Twenty-year-old Specialis

Nicki Minaj Puts Nigeria’s Christian Persecution In The Spotlight

When Nicki Minaj stepped up to the podium at the United Nations on November 18th, wearing a somber black suit instead of her usual bubblegum pink, one of the world’s most influential rap artists became one of the most unexpected voices to join the fight against Christian persecution in Nigeria.“In Nigeria, hundreds of communities live in fear simply because of how they worship,” she said. “Protecting Christians is not about taking sides, and it is not about dividing people. It is about uniting humanity.”Her appearance was arranged by United Nations Ambassador Michael Waltz, who has spent the past several months pushing world leaders to acknowledge the religious genocide in Africa’s most populous and economically successful nation. “We are witnessing atrocities,” Waltz declared earlier in the session. “One bullet at a time, one torched Bible at a time.”The unlikely partnership between the superstar and former counterterrorism officer came at a moment when the mass Christian killings in Nige

Wicked 2 Is More Conservative Than Its Stars Admit. That Doesn’t Ma...

With this summer’s blockbuster season ranking as the least attended since 1981 and the October box office notching its lowest monthly total ever, Hollywood is in desperate need of a magic wand to save the industry from its slump. Right now, all eyes are turning to Oz as analysts predict that Wicked: For Good will reverse the trend and become the highest grossing of film of 2025.That’s going to be a heavy lift, since the film’s two leads seem determined to do everything they can to alienate half the country. During the press tour for the first Wicked film, Ariana Grande (Glinda the Good Witch) and Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West) not only appeared startlingly emaciated, but gave bizarre, politically-charged interviews sure to turn off anyone to the right of the Southern Poverty Law Center.Erivo obnoxiously decried innocent fan art that redesigned the movie poster to look more like the Broadway Playbill, complaining that it “degrade[d]” and “erased” her. Then, in respons

Winter In Love: In New Book, Andrew Klavan’s Tortured Detective Fin...

Through four books now, fans of Andrew Klavan’s Cameron Winter novels have wondered if the assassin-turned-poetry professor would conquer his inner demons and realize his life’s great ambition: becoming worthy of a good woman’s love. In his fifth outing, After That, the Dark, readers may at last have their answer.This installment finds Winter continuing to flirt with faith — literally. The object of his affection, therapist Gwendolyn Lord, is a committed Christian, and her belief in the spiritual realm prompts Winter to wonder whether his latest case is bringing him in contact with the demonic. When Winter first meets Gwendolyn in the third book of the series, The House of Love and Death, he tells her of his “strange habit of mind” that leads him to obsess over crimes that don’t make sense. Remembering this, now that Cam has, thanks to therapy, overcome his guilt and self-loathing enough to ask her out on a date, Gwendolyn shares the story of an “impossible murder.”  After a mental br

The Fight To Make A Christian College Christian Again

In the year before his death, Charlie Kirk increasingly raised the alarm about the progressive drift in America’s Christian colleges and seminaries. He particularly focused his warnings on one of the largest and most trusted evangelical universities in the country — Southern California’s Biola University. In one exchange during a stop on his 2024 Brainwashed Tour, he argued that the school had “slipped in its stature as a Christian school” because many of the students graduating “do not believe in the core tenets of the Christian faith.” “There’s a lot of deconstructionism in the last five years that has been introduced at Biola,” Kirk said.The recent Biola grad who asked the question looked perplexed as he stood squinting in front of TPUSA’s iconic “Prove Me Wrong” tent on the sunny University of Nevada quad. He said this wasn’t an accurate summary. In his experience, Biola was as Christian and conservative as it had ever been. While Biola’s administration maintains this same
