After the Lion Roared, It’s Time to Finish the Fight
This was a war not just of survival—but of clarity. And now, with that clarity in hand, we must confront a more uncomfortable truth: if we do not finish the work here at home—in Judea and Samaria—we risk squandering the very victory we just achieved.

The ‘Woke Right’ And A New Subculture In American Evangelicalism
In a recent interview, Tucker Carlson, whose animosity toward Israel and the Jewish people has become increasingly apparent, mocked Senator Ted Cruz for his support of the State of Israel based on the Abrahamic Covenant of Genesis 12. Though it was frustrating to watch Senator Cruz struggle to articulate the Abrahamic Covenant (and where in Scripture it is found), the most alarming part of it all was the antagonism and condescension that dripped from Carlson’s lips as he derided Cruz’s Christian Zionism. This conflation of right-wing populism and extreme Reformed theology has created a new subculture in American evangelicalism—what I call the Young, Restless, Reformed, and Paranoid (YRRP). And it’s a problem.

While everyone has been preoccupied with the war in the Middle East and the anti-ICE protests going on around the nation, economic conditions in the U.S. have continued to deteriorate.  The housing market is in abysmal shape, consumer spending is down, and layoffs are way up.   Meanwhile, fear of our seemingly endless cost-of-living crisis is preventing the Federal Reserve from cutting interest rates, and we shouldn’t expect any additional “economic stimulus” from our politicians in Washington anytime soon because the federal government is already facing an unprecedented debt crisis.  In other words, our economy is a giant mess, and the cavalry isn’t going to come riding along to save us.
