If Christians only bind up disappointment without preaching justice, if we only heal wounds of division without recognizing the moral offense, then we have failed.

The guy who wrote the immigration policy section of Project 2025 is going to be in charge of mass deportations.

As cats go, Chidi is a brat. He knocks every damned thing off every damned surface when he wants attention, and if the attention he gets isn't the kind of attention he wants, he bites my ankles and then picks on Simba. But he comes when I call him. And he stretches out on my lap when I read.
