What is the Disciple Nations Alliance? Our vision for the past 28 years has been to see blessed, thriving nations rooted in biblical truth, with biblical principles and definitions deeply embedded in their foundations, shaping their institutions, policies, and practices across every sector of society.

"The No Kings coalition markets itself as a spontaneous citizens’ uprising. It is not quite that. A Fox News Digital investigation found roughly 500 activist groups involved in the effort, with an estimated $3 billion in combined annual revenue. The flagship march in St. Paul listed on its permit filing, as lead coordinator, the group Indivisible, a Democratic advocacy organization funded by George Soros. The same network includes groups tied to Neville Roy Singham, an American tech entrepreneur living in China who has publicly identified as a communist and has ties to the Chinese Communist Party. Singham’s funded organizations — the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the People’s Forum, the Answer Coalition, CodePink — openly discussed using March 28 to advance what they called 'revolution' ... Spontaneous it was not." thehill.com/opinion/white-…

Here's another one for you, @BiblicalBeauty. "God is sovereign over the whole of His creation. Because no domain of life is exempt from His governance, religion cannot be reduced to private conscience. The self-satisfied Christian who 'believes,' who thinks he finds God in the garden solitude that his heart alone tends, worships an idol, strong enough only to fortify the walls that he has erected to protect himself from a hostile external world. This is the contemporary Evangelical temptation..." - Joshua Mitchell
Melissa the Hopeful🏠Homemaker@BiblicalBeauty

Francis Schaeffer in 1981: “As we turn to the evangelical leadership of this country in the last decades, unhappily, we must come to the conclusion that often it has not been much help. It has shown the mark of a platonic, overly spiritualized Christianity all too often. Spirituality to the evangelical leadership often has not included the Lordship of Christ over the whole spectrum of life. Spirituality has often been shut up to a very narrow area. And also very often, among many evangelicals, including evangelical leaders, it seems that the final end is to protect their own projects. I am not saying all, by any means, but all too often that has been the case.” -A Christian Manifesto

Christianity didn't survive because it was popular. It survived because it was true.

Dear @chicagobulls, I am a lifelong fanatical Bulls fan. Been to many games, bought your merch, and supported loyally through ups and downs. Until today. My greatest loyalty is, as is Jaden's, to Jesus Christ and truth. And I am grateful to live in a nation that protects freedom of religion and freedom of speech. Your violation of the first amendment--and, even more problematically, your ideologically selective while culturally amenable cancelling of a man who did nothing more than hold to his convictions--is a tragic capitulation to the spirit of the age. I urge you to do the right thing and publicly apologize to Jaden, acknowledging the error of censoring a man for believing what Scripture says and what Jesus taught. Respect, @JadensIV. -a Chicago pastor

Jaden Ivey was thrown off the @chicagobulls today over his Christian views on LGBTQ pride events. He’s reacting live on IG right now and refusing to back down from his religious convictions. @NBA wouldn’t dare to do this to any other faith. Christians must stand with @JadensIV!

BREAKING: The Trump Admin will continue sending millions of Title X funding to Planned Parenthood. Over 400,000 unborn children are killed by this corporation every year, making them the largest abortion chain in America. The blood of these babies cries out. Taxpayer dollars should never fund the killing of innocent human beings.

Thank you, @j_bambrick, for your video. I pray that the Bible-beliving church here in the United States and around the world will live according to these principles you expressed so well: 1. "I'm going to find the place of moral truth, and I'm going to stand there. I'm going to proclaim it boldly, regardless of whether or not the right or the left agree. ... The fact that the place of moral truth may agree with one political party or another is neither here nor there." 2. "We have a duty to preach the Kingdom, the will, the whole counsel of God, and to compromise on it for the sake of reaching people with the gospel will never work."
Jamie Bambrick@j_bambrick

Keller Vs Kirk (or The Third Way vs The Right Way) The last few weeks have shown that ignoring the call to political centrism actually leads not only to better evangelistic fruit, but also greater political influence and less political idolatry. Here's a full video on that.

This Easter, I invite you to look at Jesus, consider what he said and did, and ask for yourself what I believe is the most important question you will ever answer: Did he really leave behind an empty tomb? And if he did, what does that mean for you? This video was made possible and in collaboration with my friends at @ChildlikeMedia.

I'm an Executive Producer of this extraordinary film. In theaters for a week starting April 30. Visit thestoryofeverything.film to see the trailer and get tickets. Especially great for high school/college ministries, but it will feed the faith of all Christians and point spiritually curious people toward God.

Public discourse about homelessness rests on a category mistake as well as on empirical fictions. The error goes beyond the advocates’ successful rebranding of drug addiction, mental illness, and social disaffiliation as “homelessness.” We speak of “the homeless” as if it were an ontological category, one population set apart from everyone else. The term is not merely shorthand for individuals making persistently bad decisions. We do not hold “the homeless” to the same expectations as anyone else. They are treated as a different species. Of course they live on the streets; that is their essence. Meantime, the roughly $80,000 [New York City] spends annually on each street vagrant serves largely to preserve that status quo. The only policy that would restore public spaces to their rightful users is to prohibit their colonization by vagrants. Until about 60 years ago, it was simply understood that police would move transients along. Photographs of the New York subway system in the 1940s and 1950s show orderly spaces; commuters did not fear being pushed onto the tracks. Is poverty greater now than it was then? Hardly. Today’s poor receive levels of government support unimaginable in earlier eras. The fact that commuters must now contend with potentially lethal disorder is not a civilizational advance in the name of liberal autonomy; it is a step backward toward anarchy. city-journal.org/article/new-yo…

Notice how extreme poverty drops precipitously when: 1) China introduced market reforms 2) USSR dissolved & 3) India turned against socialism. Socialism destroys wealth creation. It not only breeds poverty, but it is a grossly unequal poverty where only political elites benefit.

Human agency disappears. The human person as an individual disappears. We are reduced to mouthpieces of groups based on skin color, sex, or sexual orientation. @VirgilWalkerOMA
Virgil L. Walker@VirgilWalkerOMA

In the worldview of leftist progressive Democrats, responsibility disappears. This wasn’t his fault, they’ll say. So nothing changes. The next victim pays the price. Don’t be surprised when @MtStCharles issues an apology, not to the victim, but to the Nigerian national who caused it.

Have you noticed, @NancyRPearcey, that the people who continually bring up the evils of slavery in U.S. history, tying it to systemic racism in America today, never have anything to say about *actual* slavery today, including the most evil of all forms of slavery, sex slavery and sex trafficking?

The coercion, shaming, and manipulation of governments, organizations, schools, and even churches to force people to take untested and unproven so-called "vaccines" was a great evil. These are the consequences.
