Be a Denison Forum Frontline PartnerTomorrow’s games are when March Madness will begin in earnest, as that’s when brackets start to count. An estimated 80 million people are expected to participate, making March Madness one of the most ubiquitous sporting events of the year. However, the truth is that many people will have more than their pride on the line when the first round begins. And for all the fun that the tournament offers, it presents a cautionary tale as well.About Denison Forum and The

Article DescriptionEnough Senate Democrats voted for a Republican spending bill last Friday to avoid a government shutdown. Led by their minority leader, Charles Schumer (D, NY), they chose the GOP’s spending regime rather than be blamed for a shutdown they feared would further empower President Trump. Many Democrats, however, consider Schumer’s decision to be so heinous that they are questioning whether he should step down as their leader. According to the Hill, the minority leader is now the

Rev. Robert Morris of Gateway Church has now been indicted on child sex abuse charges in Oklahoma. The former pastor is charged with five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child. Biblical morality has become more problematic than ever before in American history, and sex abuse scandals are especially to blame. According to our Lord, you can be “salt [that] has lost its taste” and is “thrown out and trampled,” or you can “let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works

Yesterday, a court ruled that Mahmoud Khalil—the Columbia University graduate who was arrested on Saturday for his role in pro-Palestine protests—will remain imprisoned in Louisiana while his case plays out in court. He is not, however, “in immediate danger of deportation” according to Department of Justice attorney Brandon Waterman. Today we discuss who Mahmoud Khalil is, why his case has generated such strong opinions on both sides of the debate, and how the court’s decision has major implications

2025/03/12

Fears of a recession sparked a major sell-off Monday, as the Dow dropped nearly nine hundred points. The US economy fell abruptly when the pandemic hit, but has since recovered these losses and ushered in a new era of growth. However, amid widespread discouragement and pessimism, the US stands today at an all-time low ranking in the World Happiness Report. By contrast, we know that the “abundant” life we were created to experience is found only in Christ.About Denison Forum and The Daily

Five years ago today, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic.

But these numbers, as horrific as they are, don’t begin to tell the whole story.About Denison Forum and The Daily ArticleToday's Daily Article was written by Dr. Jim Denison and narrated by Chris Elkins.

2025/03/10

Political comments made by MSNBC’s Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow following President Trump’s speech to Congress made headlines this week. Both focused on DJ Daniel, a thirteen-year-old brain cancer survivor who has always dreamed of being a police officer. The Founders relied on a commitment to objective truth and consensual biblical morality to unify the disparate factions of the nation. Now that our “post-truth,” post-Christian culture has abandoned both, it is hard to see a path forward for

The “law of unintended consequences” states that the actions of people and especially governments always have effects that are unanticipated or “unintended.” Not just sometimes—always. Today, we consider four examples: tariffs in the US, treaties for Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, and released prisoners from Gaza.

President Donald Trump spoke to a joint session of Congress last night. This was not a State of the Union address. Mr. Trump defended his policies, casting his first month in office as the most successful in history. Numerous Democrats marched out of the chamber of their own accord; by the time the address was over, their side of the aisle was half empty. The Hill called Democrats’ actions “an extraordinary display of partisan scuffling even by the standards of the polarized modern era.” When

The Trump administration is pausing all aid to Ukraine, including weapons, days after a contentious meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and President Donald Trump. This ongoing controversy over the way forward in Ukraine is both highly complex and very simple. Today, we unpack the complexities and the simple (yet difficult) command of Christ to “Love your neighbor as yourself”—whether they are a person or a nation.About Denison Forum and The Daily ArticleToday's Daily Article

While the Oscars celebrated Anora, a film promoting controversial themes, a stark contrast is offered in the film Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. This powerful film follows Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a theologian who resisted Naziism at the cost of his life. Hollywood’s focus on social advocacy reveals a deep desire to influence the world—yet, as Bonhoeffer taught, true impact comes from courageously doing God's will. His legacy challenges us to stand firm in a world that often celebrates the

Attorney General Pam Bondi released the much-awaited first batch of documents related to the Jeffrey Epstein files on Thursday afternoon. Flight logs, an evidence list, a contact book, and a highly redacted “masseuse list”—which most assume includes the names of his victims—were part of what was made public. Chances are good that your name is not on Epstein’s list. However, every sin we commit—every careless word, selfish action, and fallen thought—shows up on God’s list. And, if you’re a Christian,

Gene Hackman, the two-time Oscar-winning actor, and his wife, classical pianist Betsy Arakawa, were found dead yesterday afternoon in their New Mexico home. What makes celebrities so famous (despite the obvious fact that they are by definition) and how does this matter to our pursuit of spiritual truth? Many “spiritual” Americans treat God like another celebrity. We view him as an authority figure and see Jesus as an aspirational hero we want to emulate. But it’s not enough.About Denison Forum and

Kyiv and Washington agreed yesterday on the terms of a draft minerals deal that Ukrainian officials hope will improve relations with the Trump administration and pave the way for long-term security commitments by the US. There was a day when such incentives were ideological rather than economic as the West opposed the Soviet Union’s drive to impose Communism on the world. Understanding this shift from ideology to pragmatism is vital to understanding the world today—and finding peace with God,

Kfir Bibas was ten months old and his brother Ariel was four when Hamas kidnapped them along with their parents on October 7. Their tiny bodies were returned in black boxes last Thursday during Hamas and Israel’s hostage exchange. Helen Keller observed, “Tyranny cannot defeat the power of ideas.” However, ideas can empower tyranny.

Queer actress to play Jesus in “Jesus Christ Superstar”

The Daily Article ·

2025/02/20

Wicked star Cynthia Erivo will play Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl this summer. The United Church of Christ Cathedral of Hope in Dallas hosted a service last Sunday dedicated to celebrating drag performers and transgender individuals. One reason such stories are discouraging is that we’re not sure what, if anything, we can do in response. And we instinctually want answers to our questions and solutions for our problems. Our hope rests, of course, in Jesus.About Denison Forum
