They say that young people are our future, and this guides our hearts and aspirations every day during the Whispering Ponies Ranch (WPR) life-changing therapy camps for children of abuse. Kids at WPR come from broken homes (and often much worse), having known extreme neglect, physical and mental abuse, violence, abandonment, and even the nightmare of being sex trafficked. WPR Camp employs screened, certified counselors who nurture these rescued kids through week-long restorative treatment, displayed through love and acceptance while teaching…

As readers will recall, Bashan was the land of the Rephaim, the region associated with gateways to the realm of the dead, and home to the city of Dan, the central cultic site for the worship of Baal, the lord of the underworld. The foot of Mount Hermon overlapped the northern boundary of the region of Bashan…
God’s Word predicts a time when all of the world will have but one government that controls. It will be ruled over by the worst tyrant of all time. This man is called many names in the Bible: the son of perdition, the prince that shall come, the Assyrian, the beast, the man of sin, the king of fierce countenance, and Antichrist. His ultimate control over the world, through satanically indwelt power, is prophesied in the…
Pastors and conservative leaders weighed in on reaction by journalists and entertainers who have mocked prayer and brought attention to Tennessee’s drag show ban amid the Christian elementary school massacre that took six lives Monday. As the nation grapples with the murders of three adults and three children at the Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, faith leaders responded to the criticism by journalists, commentators, entertainers and activists who have mocked prayer and blamed conservatives for outlawing drag shows for kids and not guns. Family Research Council President Tony Perkins reiterated that people should still turn to prayer as a way to combat the “spiritual battle” that “is raging for our country and our culture” which “is targeting our children.” “We must return to the only lasting source of hope and freedom – the Lord Jesus Christ,” he added. “The Church must stand uncompromisingly upon the truth of God’s word, which is the source of hope and freedom. Nothing Washington is doing will matter until we acknowledge and address the moral decay and brokenness plaguing our culture.” Covenant Presbyterian senior pastor Chad Scruggs lost his 9-year-old daughter, Hallie, during the massacre Monday…
Serious scientific searches for evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence have been restricted almost solely so far to SETI, looking out across vast interstellar distances hoping to detect a signal from a faraway civilization. But what if instead of looking out there, we looked…here? Could it be that we might find evidence of advanced alien technology on Earth itself? While the question might bring to mind dubious stories of crashed flying saucers from the mid-20th century, it does appear that at least one highly-credentialed Harvard professor believes we could find an alien space probe here on Earth – or more correctly, under the ocean – if we just go and look. And that’s exactly what he plans to do…
A four-star Air Force general sent a memo on Friday to the officers he commands that predicts the U.S. will be at war with China in two years. In the memo sent Friday and obtained by NBC News, Gen. Mike Minihan, head of Air Mobility Command, said, “I hope I am wrong. My gut tells me we’ll fight in 2025.” Air Mobility Command has nearly 50,000 service members and nearly 500 planes and is responsible for transport and refueling. Minihan said in the memo that because both Taiwan and the U.S. will have presidential elections in 2024, the U.S. will be “distracted,” and Chinese President Xi Jinping will have an opportunity to move on Taiwan…
More than ten years ago, a prominent research psychologist, Daryl J. Bem, published a paper in a respected academic journal that presented evidence for precognition. The response was swift and withering. Critics in academia and news media called Bem’s work an embarrassment; skeptics reran his trials and said they failed; one journalist argued that the clinician’s results themselves proved “science is broken.” A decade on, however, the unthinkable has occurred. Bem’s data has stood up. When you say the word precognition it strikes many people as fantastical, as though we are entering crystal-ball territory. I do not believe in altering vocabulary to suit reactions (or that it does any good). But why the incredulity? We already know, and have known for generations, that linear time as we experience it is an illusion…
Alfred Kroeber, founder of the University of California Anthropology Department was contacted by Hart and Pugh when they reported finding prehistoric artifacts. This spurred the first archeological dig of Lovelock in 1912 led by L. L. Loud also of the University of California. A second dig took place in 1924 and after finishing the excavations, Loud collaborated on a report that was published in 1929. What Loud found was nothing short of amazing. Approximately 10,000 archaeological specimens were uncovered including tools, bones, baskets, and weapons… During the initial excavations, there were reports of mummified remains being found of two red-haired giants. One was a female 6.5-feet (1.98 m) tall and the other a male over 8-feet (2.44 m) tall. To Some, the uncovering of 15” sandals (38.1 cm) at Lovelock Cave is proof enough that the Paiute tale is real. In an article published in the Nevada Review-Miner in 1931, in February and June of that same year, it was reported that two very large skeletons were found in the Humboldt dry lake bed near Lovelock, Nevada. One of the Lovelock skeletons was reported to have measured 8.5-feet (2,59 m) tall and was later described as having been wrapped in a gum-covered fabric similar to Egyptian mummies . The other was supposedly nearly 10-feet (3.05 m) long…. Some other evidence for the Lovelock Giants includes a set of images showing…
Perhaps you’ve heard of “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God,” thought to be one of the most famous sermons of all time. Hugely influential in Christianity’s Great Awakening, a period in 18th-century American history when a massive amount of people came to Jesus, the sermon was penned by Jonathan Edwards, an American theologian and later president of what is today Princeton University, whose evocative descriptions of hell and wrath led many to the altar in repentance. In summary, the sermon is an appeal, through fear, shame, and terrifying imagery, for sinners to understand they will be judged by God and subject to his wrath and damnation to hell if they do not repent and turn to Jesus. It emphasizes the great mercy of the Lord, explaining that only because of this mercy are people saved. Here then, are eight lessons from this sermon…
Many scholars believe that the “unlocking” of the Abyss by a “star” who is given the key (Revelation 9:1–10) is the eschatological release of the imprisoned Watchers. For example, Thompson notes: “The most suitable sequel to the time of imprisonment described in 1 Enoch 10 can be found in Rev[elation] 9 where the key to the abyss is given to a fallen star (or to the fifth, trumpet-blowing, angel?) who uses it to open the shaft to the abyss and facilitate the release of imprisoned demonic forces who emerge to terrorize earth dwellers…
