Rise against hate and never edit of back away from it, fight. Yesterday, I was called a devil worshipper because I posted that I have no tolerance for hate, fascism, racism, sexism, or homophobia. I was accused of blasphemy for saying that my church is internal and that I maintain an ongoing personal conversation with…

Let’s have an honest, heart-to-heart conversation about a man who, for many, represents everything that is concerning about leadership today. I’ve always believed in respecting the office and the voice of the people—that is why it pains me deeply when a president, entrusted with the hopes and dreams of a nation, appears to embody the…

Lately, I’ve caught myself thinking about the state of the world — all the noise, all the hate, all the division. It feels like everywhere you turn, people are shouting over each other, villainizing anyone who’s different from them. It’s exhausting. And honestly, it makes me wonder… when does it end?

I was in the St. Louis airport going through immigration after flying in from Mexico just this week. They are doing random extra vetting. The family right in front of me was sent into an extra vetting room while I was let through. They can search your phone—so make sure you don’t have anything on…

Millions of Americans took to the streets to protest against the Trump administration, and it was a powerful reminder that people still won’t sit back and be ignored. These massive protests aren’t just about making noise—they’re a way for ordinary folks to stand up and demand change when policies seem to favor a select few…

In the early 1950s, the United States was gripped by a paranoid fervor that led to one of its most insidious campaigns against its own citizens. Known as the Lavender Scare, this period saw government agencies systematically purge LGBTQ+ individuals from federal employment. Labeled as security risks solely because of their sexual orientation, thousands lost…

Who would be the Antichrist? The idea has fueled centuries of speculation—from theological debates to conspiracy theories to vicious political accusations. Rooted in Christian eschatology, the Antichrist is often imagined as a charismatic deceiver, a figure who rises to power, opposes Christ, and ushers in an era of unspeakable chaos. Yet in a world that…

I saw this quote by Charles Bukowski, and it hit me like a brick to the skull: “I see men assassinated around me every day.
