Every political campaign’s dream is to get potential voters to glance at piece of mail they find in their mailboxes, then their hearts pound quicker if those voters stop and read the mailing cover. Then, they hope, the voter will open the piece and read what they want those voters to know – either good stuff about their candidate or bad stuff about their opponent.
In this week's edition of IFA Spotlight, we feature a fantastic presentation from IFI’s recent worldview conference, delivered by our good friend Dr. Rob Reinow, founder and director of Visionary Family Ministries. Dr. Reinow begins this session with an amusing anecdote of how awful the reality of the blind leading the blind really is, and how it seems that many churches today are doing just that with their congregations. The reason is that we’re slipping up on a essential part of our faith, which is not believing the Scriptures are enough.
In the eyes of the Biden administration, there is still enough of a public health emergency to criminalize the breathing of 2-year-olds and disabled seniors on planes, but not enough of an emergent matter to prevent millions of illegal aliens from all corners of the globe from invading our border.
On Thursday, March 29, 2022, Oklahoma’s governor, Kevin Stitt, signed the “Save Women’s Sports Act into law.” He did so over the objection of many progressives who rushed to their keyboards to declare this law yet another example of conservative bigotry and cisgender injustice.
The Washington Post, like The New York Times, has finally admitted the validity of Hunter Biden’s laptop 16 months after the New York Post broke the story. Like Big Tech, they suppressed it until after his father, Joe Biden, was safely ensconced in the White House.
In a front-page piece Thursday, The Washington Post “verifies key details of interactions” of the Biden family’s vast business dealings, including the president’s brother James Biden, “with Chinese executives.” Not just any. These guys run Communist-controlled conglomerates like CEFC China Energy, from which Hunter got $5 million.

The confirmation hearings in the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson have been a relatively peaceful affair. In comparison to the ruthless attacks on Justice Brett Kavanaugh and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, there has been relative civility surrounding the D.C Court of Appeals judge. While it is likely that Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will be confirmed, it is good to take a dive into her actual rulings and responses to questioning, not just her resume.
In the waning days of the 2022 spring session, the Illinois General Assembly passed SB 3215, "Mental Health Validation Act". The legislation, which passed unanimously in the Illinois Senate on February 23, was taken up in the Illinois House on Wednesday, March 30, and passed by a vote of 76 to 38.
This proposal, if signed into law by Gov. JB Pritzker, will "validate" referenda to create a 708 Mental Health Board, under the Community Mental Health Act but without Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (PTELL) language legal retroactive to January 1, 1994.

When COVID-19 first emerged as a major issue in the news, Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) seized the opportunity to grant himself more power by declaring a state of emergency. Was Pritzker really under the impression that COVID-19 was such a major concern that he had to use these emergency powers? Perhaps in the beginning his concerns were legitimate, but after about 23 months, I think it’s obvious that his motives are not merely COVID-centric anymore...
As a pastor, what can you do to keep the children of your congregation from being tainted by the humanism of government schools? Start your own K-12 school. Taking it one step further, what can you do to ward off the indoctrination of very young children before it ever has a chance to take root? Start an open enrollment preschool. Our guest this week on Spotlight, Rev. Mark Moore of Belmont Bible Church in Downers Grove, is in the process of realizing both of these goals!
