For me, that season has arrived at sixty-two years of age.

That realization has not filled my heart with discouragement.

Evangelicals & Personal Responsibility: Jemele Hill, Cyrus Carmack-Belton & The Accountability Crisis
The death of Cyrus Carmack-Belton is a tragedy. A young life was lost. A family is grieving. No decent person should celebrate that reality. But tragedy should never become an excuse to abandon truth.
Since the acquittal of Chikei Rick Chow, much of the public discussion has focused on portraying Cyrus as a completely innocent victim. His mother has understandably defended her son and highlighted his humanity. Yet there is a danger when grief becomes revisionist history.

A recent image circulating online — reportedly posted on Truth Social by Donald Trump — has ignited strong reactions across political and religious communities. It is precisely why I, in good conscience, could not, did not, and would not cast a ballot for Donald J. Trump.
