He ran his own boat, managed a crew, negotiated prices at the docks. He was comfortable in his own sun-hardened skin. When Jesus approached him, Peter's first response wasn't confidence. It was humility: "Lord, depart from me, for I am ...

In just a matter of days, Jesus would be rejected and scorned, dragged to a sham trial, beaten, tortured and brutally killed in public. He was mocked, despised and abandoned by many in His inner circle. But that’s just the beginning of the real story…We must never for...

TANVI RATNA: Iran war isn’t a distraction from America’s problems, it’s where they lead
Americans are asking a simple question: why focus on Iran when we have a crisis at home? It sounds reasonable. Immigration is strained. Fraud is rising. Enforcement systems are under pressure. Why escalate overseas?Because the premise behind that question is wrong. It assumes the problems are separate. They are not. We already accept this in one part of the world.
