A Statement from Center for Arizona Policy President Cathi Herrod, Esq. A predictable attack on a new pro-life law by abortion activists and the Arizona Medical Association has put one provision of the lifesaving law on hold while it is dragged through the courts....
Chris St. John
Sojourners
Scriptures are clear that like the saints of old, you and I are “strangers and exiles” in this world. We’re seeking a better homeland, as the writer of Hebrews wrote about: These all died in faith, not having received the things promised, but having seen them and...
Arizona Capitol Project: By the Numbers
Right about the time it seemed the 2021 Fifty-fifth Legislature - First Regular Session was nearing an end, last week the Arizona Senate abruptly adjourned until Thursday, June 10. Then, last Friday, Governor Ducey vetoed 22 bills signaling that he would not consider...
Be Thou My Vision
Good Afternoon Pastors, Do you wake up with songs, Scriptures, or Scriptures set to music on your heart? On the occasions that I do, I tend to have them with me all day long. This morning’s tune is a medieval Irish hymn that I sang a lot in high school: Be thou my...
Pastors: See You Wednesday 1/27?

A Different Lens on All of This
As of this writing, there’s still scant little we know for certain at the top of the ticket. Since late-yesterday, the Electoral College count has been staying put – depending on which source you follow – at Joseph R. Biden Jr., 253 or 264 and Donald J. Trump, 214....
Fear Not
Maybe it’s because I’ve crested past the age of 45 or perhaps because I joined that illustrious group of cord cutters some years back – either way, I bought an antenna for my TV. In part, so I can watch Premier League soccer (football, ahem…) on Saturday mornings, but...
Smiling with Our Eyes
So, have you mastered smiling with your eyes yet? You know what I mean. That weird moment when you’re full-tilt smiling at someone behind your mask at a grocery store or gas station, only to realize that they cannot see you smiling at them? Out in public, we’re now...
