"I had never met anyone 100-years-old," the young woman declared exuberantly, "let alone twins! I got in touch with their family and offered the photo shoot as a gift."

"Nobody Likes Doing Abortions."

It may come as a surprise that India owns a notorious rape rate, numbering in at a whopping six crimes reported daily. Regarding this fact, it is not uncommon for the predators to force abortions on their victims.

"What America ultimately needs is spiritual change—a transformation that starts in individual hearts."

Summer had just finished high school with the intention of entering college. At the time, she was balancing attention to a job, rodeo competitions---and a recent boyfriend, Jason. Shortly after high school graduation, the truth of her pregnancy, however, threatened to shatter those dreams.

Gloria Steinem, renowned feminist and political speaker over the past four decades, is blaming climate change on a lack of global abortion statistics.

"No one has greater love than to give up one’s life for one’s friends (John 15:3)."

True, I was eventually repentant. When I came before God and to the quietness of myself. But the repentance wasn't always instantaneous and at times I found myself asking for forgiveness for the same sin multiple times.

"Rest in Jesus little Angel."

"Evangelicals in America are not pro-life, they're just anti-abortion... just look at our birth-rates."

“You can choose to look the other way but never again can you say that you never knew.”

"What if it really was Adam and Steve? That’s what the Out Front Theater Company in Atlanta, which stages shows exploring themes relevant to people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning, will set out to answer for audiences..."

It has rightly been said that true Christian freedom occurs when you are enabled to recognize, rather than deny, your weakness.

“‘F*** you, Donald. From the gays.’ Sent!”

“We will hold Planned Parenthood accountable for knowingly endangering their patients by providing illegal abortions at a facility that was not properly licensed nor prepared to handle an emergency.”

“It’s not fair that my deeply held convictions are portrayed as those of a narrow-minded bigot.”

I know some who would label such resolve a "serious compromise" and a sore lack of faith. I see it as a desperate willingness to act when any other measure is rendered impossible by godless men. An action against further death is an action for life and Scripture simply commands believers to choose "life (Deuteronomy 30:19)."

“These songs of faith and hope, that’s what you gotta have when you’re going through bad times – and good times. You gotta have faith and hope to carry you through each day.”

Hagerman's case is a gruesome one, undeniably, and opens the door to Christian discussion on mental illness. Do mental diseased exist to the extent psychology allowed them today and, if so, do they render man irresponsible for his actions?

It has been described as a searing of the soul, a rending of the heart. C. S. Lewis aptly called it a "problem." And yet the Bible says that there is no such thing as a Christian without it: Pain. Perhaps the most difficult pain, Lewis addresses moreover, is the matter of emotional, or mental, pain.

Motherhood... is a dual vessel of promise and foretaste of eternal life for Christian believers. In an age where the maternal vocation goes largely unrecognized even in the church, it is vital that Christians re-assume a biblical perspective---and no better time to reassert such appreciation this rapidly approaching Mother's Day (May 14). We at the Gospel Herald have some elegant (but reasonably priced) suggestions:

“What a better way to celebrate your most treasured gift, your child, than through jewelry? Unfortunately, Amy McGlade,experienced midwife and founder of Baby Bee Hummingbird, isn't referencing jewelry memoirs made of precious stones or metals, but of "extra" human embryos.

In the sensational documentary "Titanic: The New Evidence," Senan Molony shocks many long-time Titanic fans and historians with a proposal: the elegant liner sank not ultimately by an iceberg, but by a coal-fire which preceded the fateful maritime journey.

"All I want to do is make my mother incredibly proud,” Prince Harry beautifully remarked last year, “That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do. When she died, there was a gaping hole, not just for us but also for a huge amount of people across the world. If I can try and fill a very small part of that, then job done. I will have to, in a good way, spend the rest of my life trying to fill that void as much as possible. And so will William.”

A shroud of mystery yet to be lifted remains concerning the news of six bodies found in an Arnstein garden house. The figures were discovered by the owner of the house---who, tragically, was also the father of two of the teens found.
