Do You Watch ‘Game of Thrones’?

John Stonestreet with the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview recently recorded a one-minute commentary on the way “Christians twist themselves into pretzels in order to be ‘relevant.'”

One of the ways Stonestreet points out Christians do this is by watching popular television shows like ‘Game of Thrones’ that contain unprecedented levels of nudity and violence.

Listen to his commentary below.

For Obama Administration, 20 an Unlucky Number

The following blog post is by Family Council staff member Luke McCoy.

For a superstitious person the number 13 is an unlucky number. For the Obama Administration, you might say an unlucky number is 20.

Twenty times: That’s how many times the Obama Administration has been overruled unanimously by our nation’s highest court since taking office, according to National Review.

This is an unusually high number of unanimously unfavorable rulings for a President. As the article points out, the Court handed down 15 unanimous rulings against George W. Bush’s administration during his 8 years as president and 23 against President Clinton’s; the Obama Administration’s 20 unanimous rulings have come not over the course of 8 years, but over the course of 5 years.
