The Academy Awards used to be a cultural phenomenon. The Oscars ceremony was the pinnacle of the entertainment world with glamorous stars jockeying for statuettes.

Should you be able to quote the Bible? This used to be a silly question to ask in the Western world. Sure, Christianity the most persecuted religion in the world, but in what was once known as “Christendom,” it would be absurd to ask this question. Not anymore. More and more news stories recount the […]
President Joe Biden is a teetotaler, and with good reason. “There are enough alcoholics in my family,” he answered once when asked why he didn’t imbibe adult beverages.
