Chip Freundt was the son of Rev. Albert H. Freundt, Jr. (1932-2001). Rev. Freundt was a professor at Reformed Theological Seminary when I was a student there. During my time at RTS, I got to know one of his sons, Chip. Chip was physically frail, but this did not stop him from going on with life in a determined way. Over the years I would get emails from him that would update me on some shared inte [...]

For nearly a year I have been working with a group of producers in the development of the film Collision: Is Christianity Good for the World?, a debate between atheist Christopher Hitchens and Christian apologist Douglas Wilson. This is one of the most unique debate presentations I have ever seen. While I have participated in traditional talking-head debates, I found the approach taken by award wi [...]

Death is the great equalizer. It’s the door that we all have to pass through (Heb. 9:27). In life, no one is really equal, not even before the law. Ted Kennedy used the tragedies of others to increase the power of the Federal Government. He has been described as a lion, but we were his prey. It’s easy to be beneficent with other people’s money. Recounting Kennedy’s legislative legacy is little mor [...]

With the best-seller status of books supporting atheism and attacking religion in the news, it’s remarkable to see so much talk about religion by the president and liberals in general. Can you identify who said this?: “Science is a gift of God to all of us, and science has taken us to a place that is biblical in its power to cure.” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said this in favor of Senate Bill 5, th [...]

A window of opportunity exists in our nation since families are being pressured by circumstances seemingly beyond their control to follow ominous historical patterns set before us in the atheistic regimes of Marx and Hitler. Education, for the most part, is centralized and controlled by civil government, at both the state and national levels with its Department of Education. Women are entering the [...]

Chris Matthews, the irritating host of MSNBC’s “Hardball,” was questioning Tim Phillips who is president of Americans for Prosperity on mandatory government sponsored healthcare.
