"Bake The Cake, Wear The Jersey, Bend The Knee"

Last week we praised Ivan Provorov, a defensive player for the Philadelphia Flyers hockey team. He refused to wear a jersey with the LGBTQ rainbow flag on the Flyers' "Pride Night." He said he respected everyone, but could not participate because doing so conflicted with his Christian faith (He belongs to the Russian Orthodox Church.)

Mr. Provorov was roundly condemned by the forces of "tolerance and inclusion," even though they displayed neither trait in their reaction to Mr. Provorov's act of conscience. One commentator suggested he "get on a plane" and "go back where you feel more comfortable," — presumably Russia.

His critics were loud and vicious, but they appear to be a minority. Sales of Mr. Provorov's jersey skyrocketed in the aftermath of his principled stand.

Tal Fortgang, an American Orthodox Jew, wrote a wonderful defense of Mr. Provorov in the weekend Wall Street Journal. You can read it here.

In recent years we have witnessed what Dr. James Dobson predicted years ago. The LGBTQ movement began with an effective argument appealing for merely tolerance, inclusion and acceptance.

Having accomplished many of their goals, they now employ a cultural "fist' to the mouth of anyone who says, "my faith does not permit me to celebrate or express pride in your 'lifestyle.'"

The baker must bake the cake for the same-sex wedding or else be slapped with a lawsuit. The professional athlete must don rainbows on pride night or lose sponsors. The follower of Jesus Christ must "kneel" at the LGBTQ altar in the name of love.

That is exactly what we must not, can not do.

Harris vs. Trump: What Each Candidate Wants Most for America

We are now in the closing argument phase of the presidential campaign. Candidates are presenting their most compelling cases for why still undecided voters should choose them. Donald Trump is outlining what his second term would look like. He is pushing • tax cuts for working and middle-class Americans, • a secure border, • ending inflation, • energy independence, and • protecting religious liberty and free speech.

Inspiration That Could Save America

There is always an October surprise in every election, and we may have just experienced it. More on that later. The presidential campaigns are deploying resources and crafting messages to clarify the choice before us. Former President Donald Trump spent half an hour as a McDonald’s employee, effectively turning it into “Donald’s” as he served Pennsylvania families burgers and fries. At a rally in the same state, steel workers gathered around him and gave him a hard hat, insisting that Trump saved the steel industry. Then Trump showed his support of the American people by attending an NFL game. The stadium erupted in chants of “USA! USA!”

To Be Salt and Light, We Must Be Involved in America's Elections

The polls are shifting again. The race is still a toss-up, but virtually every poll shows former President Donald Trump with the momentum. Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign has adopted a new tone. It started with a joy, joy, joy vibe. Now, the emphasis is fear, fear, fear. Harris labels Trump “dangerous.” Her surrogates compare him to Hitler. After two serious assassination attempts on Trump, this rhetoric could inspire more violence. Please pray for the safety of Trump and Harris.
