I’ve not written nearly as much as I probably should’ve about James Talarico, the pro-abortion Democrat running for the Senate in Texas against pro-life Republican Ken Paxton, the state’s attorney general. With the Senate races incredibly tight across the nation, this one may be as close as any and is pivotal to keeping control of the Senate out of the hands of the manically pro-abortion Democrat party. Talarico has taken positions on issues not directly connected to pro-lifers that are, shall we say, odd at best. On abortion, however, he has accrued an almost unblemished pro-abortion record while serving as…

At first glance, it reads like satire – something so grotesque and absurd that it cannot possibly be real. But it is real. In Central Florida, Stand With Abortion Now (“SWAN”) is selling merchandise that turns the intentional killing of unborn children into a joke, a fashion statement, and a fundraising opportunity. We are linking to SWAN’s own website once so readers can see the organization’s words and merchandise for themselves. What follows is not parody. It is how SWAN describes – and markets – its work. SWAN is a pro-abortion clinic-escort group founded in June 2022, immediately after the…

By Mark Creech, Op-ed Contributor Saturday, October 17, 2026iStock/ChatkarenStudioOctober is Pastor Appreciation Month — a fitting time to reflect not only on our gratitude for ministers but also on the sacred office they hold.On several occasions during my ministry, I have been encouraged to drop the title “reverend.” Among Baptists, which is my background, the title has been considered inappropriate, even presumptuous. The objection usually rests on Psalm 111:9, where the King James Version declares of God, “holy and reverend is his name.”I understood the concern. No minister should claim the reverence due to God alone. Yet I came to…
