2025/04/16

Last Thursday evening, American pastor Josh Sullivan was abducted at gunpoint as he was delivering a sermon during a prayer meeting at his South African church. He was apparently kidnapped for ransom, a crime that has recently been on the rise across the country. His church urged its followers to “please pray for Josh Sullivan.” This morning, we are learning that these prayers have been answered. The greater our challenges, the greater our need for our Father’s provision and grace. About Denison

Space designers in major cities claim that “wellness rooms” are essential for creating peace in modern American lives. Conversely, “panic rooms” are also booming in American homes. Bunkers cannot protect us from pancreatic cancer or panic rooms from traffic accidents. In fact, placing our security in buildings built by humans can blind us to the most significant and urgent issues our souls face today. The One who came to open blind eyes through his incarnate body now wants to do the same through

Afterward, he told his four-year-old daughter, Poppy, “Never give up on your dreams. Never, ever give up on your dreams.” Tom Cruise would agree. The actor is known for his death-defying films that his fellow actor Simon Pegg calls “absolutely bananas.” McIlroy and Cruise illustrate the power of persistence. But what do we do when our dreams and

Get your copy of Who Am I? today.The latest World Happiness Report was recently released, and Finland, Denmark, Iceland, and Sweden remain in the top four spots. Their high ranking should not come as much of a surprise given that all four nations are generally considered solid places to live with relatively few threats to their way of life. That is not the case, however, for one nation that few likely suspected would make the top ten: Israel. Today we discuss what we can learn from their emphasis on

Stocks ended lower again yesterday after a tumultuous day. The Dow plunged 1,700 points, then suddenly surged to a gain of nearly 900 points following a false rumor that President Trump was considering a ninety-day pause on his tariffs. After the White House labeled this “fake news,” stocks turned back down. Mr. Trump then threatened to raise tariffs further against China. If this world were enough, it would mean that I was made for this world and nothing else. And that would be bad news,

Kamala Harris was “completely shocked” by her election night loss to Donald Trump, while her running mate, Tim Walz, was so “stunned” by their defeat that he had “no words.” Their campaign team “bought the hype” that they were doing better than they were based on crowd sizes and fundraising. But believing something doesn’t necessarily make it true, as any politician who lost a race they thought they would win can tell you. The same can be said of those who do not believe in heaven and hell. Their

But while no one was really quite sure how much of a hit the market would take when the day began, Trump had been warning that there would be a painful adjustment period. He just also claimed—and continues to claim—that it will be worth it in the end. So what do the new

A Lutheran pastor preaching on Jesus’ encounter with Mary and Martha in Luke 10 declared that our Lord got it wrong. The minister declared: “Jesus needed to have his worldview and the purview of his goodness expanded. . . . Jesus needed to learn his lesson and stand corrected.” He went on to assert that the passage, which he claimed was initially used to silence women, has been employed over the centuries to elevate the importance of theological education and engagement for them.

Five ways President Trump might serve a third term

President Trump recently told NBC News that he does not rule out seeking a third term in the White House, saying there are methods for doing so and that he is “not joking.” Today, we go over five ways that may theoretically happen. Americans view our leaders as extensions of ourselves who are accountable to us as they serve “we the people.” It is therefore natural, though tragic, that many of us view Christ in the same way. But what does it mean to have Jesus as an elected king in our hearts?About

Carlo Acutis, the Catholic church’s first millennial saint, will be canonized on April 27 in St. Peter’s Square. Over the last year, a million pilgrims have made their way to his shrine. The teenager is so popular in large part because his story is so accessible. And because his faith was so compelling. In the face of uncertain or devastating news, we look for a power to lean upon greater than ourselves. According to Carlo Acutis, the key is to focus on the Lord rather than our circumstances:

Denzel Washington says he is not a “Hollywood” actor

Be a Denison Forum Frontline PartnerDenzel Washington, a two-time Academy Award winner and licensed minister, was named the “greatest actor of the 21st century” by the New York Times. But don’t call him a “Hollywood” actor. He said, “Movies are a filmmaker’s medium. You shoot it, and then you’re gone and they cut together and add music and do all of that. Theater is an actor’s medium. The curtain goes up, nobody can help you.” Employing his contrast, let’s ask ourselves: Are we in a play or in a

This controversy highlights how truth is often shaped by political allegiance rather than objective reality. In contrast, Jesus invites us to seek true healing by aligning our lives with God’s will.

Ten thousand teenagers gathered recently at Wembley Arena in London for a day of worship. Vanity Fair tells us that Christianity is the “new religion” of Silicon Valley. Remembering that God is still on his throne is especially useful when we encounter apocalyptic stories like the one about China’s deep-sea cable cutter that “could reset the world order.” On days when the news makes an abundance mindset especially challenging, I’d like to point us to a way of seeing our faith that leads beyond the

Whether Russia or another actor was behind the power outage, the fact remains that such a crisis could be the work of terrorists in the future. However, when confronting massive challenges, we can find hope in this fact: if God could not use

The 2025 World Happiness Report was published this week; in it, the US fell to its lowest-ever ranking, coming in twenty-fourth among nations. We should not be surprised: anxiety, loneliness, and overdose deaths are all at all-time highs in the US. A secularized culture can seek happiness only in the happenings of our world. But, seeking happiness from happenings doesn’t seem to be a winning strategy. The good news

Trust in media and government has plummeted, driven by a culture that treats truth as a commodity. Zeynep Tufekci’s investigation into the COVID-19 lab leak theory reveals how information is often shaped by financial and political interests rather than objective reality. The same consumer-driven mindset influences our faith—turning Christianity into a transaction rather than a relationship. When we shift our focus from what we can get to who He is, the distractions of this world fade in the light of
