Verizon Looks to California Churches to Boost Wireless Coverage

Verizon is looking to use church steeples in California to help with their wireless services, reportedly compensating congregations for the effort.

The Santa Rosa-based newspaper The Press Democrat reported Tuesday about efforts by the communications company to spread their network coverage in the area.

Verizon spokesperson Karen Schulz told The Christian Post that it is typical for “carriers to lease space in a variety of locations including rooftops, church steeples, street lights and utility poles.”

“While we have been installing sites in these locations for many years, the evolution of small cells, miniature versions of traditional sites, has made it possible to install this technology in more unique locations,” explained Schulz.

“For example, at U.S. Bank stadium we installed innovative design solutions in drink rails, handrails and underneath seats. Cell sites hiding in plain sight has become a more mainstream option for meeting the capacity needs of hungry data users.”

One deal the Press Democrat noted was with Westview Christian Church in southwest Santa Rosa, with the company “paying the church an undisclosed sum to lease the…

Christian Colleges Must ‘Remain Anchored in Spiritual Heritage’ to Survive in Society

Photo: PexelsChristian colleges and universities must uphold a fundamentally Christ-centered worldview as the lens through which they provide education to survive in today’s pluralistic culture, an expert in Christian higher education has warned.

In order to survive in an increasingly pluralistic culture, Christian colleges and universities must remain firmly anchored in their theological and spiritual heritage, and uphold a fundamentally Christ-centered worldview as the lens through which they provide education, an expert in Christian higher education has warned.

Dr. Kevin Mannoia, the former president of the National Association of Evangelicals who currently serves as chaplain at Azusa Pacific University, chair of the Wesleyan Holiness Consortium, and president of International Council of Higher Education, explained in an interview last week that in previous years, the United States operated from a “predominantly Christian worldview.”

However, that is becoming less and less true.

“We are increasingly operating in a pluralistic culture,” Mannoia said, explaining that today, Christian colleges’ commitments on sexuality, abortion, and other cultural issues are constantly challenged.

“Our culture has said abortion and same sex marriage is okay,” he said. “Our culture says marriage is a civil institution. Our culture says lifestyles and even gender and sexual orientation are not a factor. Those are some cultural positions that are inherently at odds with a historic Christian worldview.”

A recent study released by Barna Group found that 12 percent of Gen Z teens — those born between 1999…

Bizarre Facts about 10 U.S. Presidents That Sound Unbelievable but are True

U.S. Presidents are often viewed with an untouchability. But these bizarre facts show that they are no different than the rest of us, some even weirder!

While you may know something about each of these leader’s political leanings, their personal likes and dislikes may be lesser known. Our presidents have had their share of embarrassing moments or peculiar eccentricities – like Grant being ticketed for speeding or Hoover’s staff hiding in bushes at his request! These are the tidbits you probably were not taught in history class.

We thought it would be fun to take a peek into the lives of the U.S. Presidents and see what unique information is out there. These may not be deep, dark secrets but they give great insight into the private life of those called “Mr. President.” We hope you enjoy this unique look at these leaders who have shaped our country and some of their bizarre quirks.

Chris Pratt Attends Christian Concert Featuring Matthew West and Zach Williams



Actor Chris Pratt is not afraid to share about his Christian faith. He often posts faith-themed messages on his social media. Recently, Pratt went to see several Christian artists perform in concert.


According to RelevantMagazine.com, over the past weekend, Pratt attended a concert featuring Christian artists For King & Country, Zach Williams, and Matthew West.


After the concert, Pratt got to go backstage to spend some time with the performers. Later, the Christian musicians posted about the meet-up on Instagram.


“Huge fan of this guy!” singer Matthew West captioned his photo with Pratt.



 


“Had a great time hanging with @prattprattpratt. Such a down to Earth dude!” Zach Williams captioned his photo with the Parks and Recreation and Guardians of the Galaxy star. “Praying blessings over him and his career.”


 



 


In December, Pratt and wife Anna Faris announced they were divorcing. Pratt also went through the trial of their son’s premature birth. In a recent YouTube video, Pratt says someone recently asked him, “With the things going on in your life, how do you keep the faith?”


Pratt responded that he was greatly helped by reading the new book by his pastor Chad Veach who leads Zoe Church in Los Angeles. Pratt recommended the book, Faith Forward Future to all his fans.
