Franklin Graham Slams Jim Carrey for Posting Graphic Illustration of AL Gov. Being Aborted



Evangelist Franklin Graham has slammed actor Jim Carrey for his sickening depiction of Alabama governor Kay Ivey being killed by abortion. Carrey was protesting Gov. Ivey’s signing of a sweeping pro-life law that will make abortion all but illegal across the southern state.


“I think If you’re going to terminate a pregnancy, it should be done sometime before the fetus becomes Governor of Alabama,” Carrey wrote, alongside a graphic illustration of Ivey having her brain sucked out of her head by an abortionist.


Many have criticised Carrey for the disturbing image, while others believe it proves that Carrey openly admits that abortion is murder.


“Did you see Jim Carrey’s tweet with his drawing showing AL Gov. Kay Ivey being ‘aborted’ – sucked apart by an abortionist?” Franklin Graham wrote on Facebook. “Well it just shows that Jim Carrey and others do know beyond any doubt that abortion is the taking of another person’s life – murder.”


Graham also described the artwork as “sick” and criticized Twitter for not censoring such a horrific image….

North Carolina Charter School Hosts Drag Queen Pride and Liberation Event

North Carolina Charter School Hosts Drag Queen Pride and Liberation Event



Two 8thgrade teachers at a charter school in North Carolina believed that they had an LGBT bullying problem, so they invited two drag queens to the school to help the students learn how to celebrate LGBT lifestyles.


Teachers Taylor Schmidt and Schara Brooks organized the event at Central Park School for Children in Durham, North Carolina. They told CNN that they saw their LGBT students on the receiving end of “incidents of targeting, harassment, and bullying” and wanted to do something about it.


Their solution was to host a drag queen event as part of the school’s Pride and Liberation event. Drag Queens Vivica C. Coxx and Stormie Daie sang for the students, showed off multiple outfits, and talked about their experiences as LGBT students.


Coxx, the onstage persona of Justin Clapp, the organizer of Durham Pride, performed “Big, Blonde, and Beautiful” from “Hairspray.” Then Coxx told the students, “You should be proud of Central Park School for Children. You have a famous person standing in front of you who wishes I had this experience when I was your age.” Coxx and Daie also performed songs by Beyonce and Nikki Minaj during the program.


The duo also took part in a panel with Durham City Council member Vernetta Alston and LGBTQ Center of Durham’s executive director Helena Cragg. During the discussion, Alston told the students that, “Everyone,…

Church Offers Free Wedding to Cohabitating Couples – Rings and Dress Included

A Dallas church is challenging cohabitating couples to stop living together – and it’s offering a free wedding and wedding reception to those who follow through with marriage.

The offer includes free dresses, tuxedos, wedding rings, cake and a wedding reception. It also includes 10 weeks of counseling and the first month’s rent for living separately.

“If you commit today, we will have you married in the next 90 days,” pastor Bryan L. Carter of Concord Church in Dallas told the congregation Sunday.

The goal, he added, was to give cohabitating couples “a pathway in the honoring of God in your relationship.”

“Church is not just about calling up where we’re short, but the church is also a place where you can find hope and healing and restoration and redemption for wherever you might be in your life,” he said to applause.

It is the fourth time Concord Church has given the offer – or “challenge” – to members. About 60 couples have accepted it and been married.

“This is your time now,” he said.

Preaching from Hebrews 13:4, Carter listed five myths of living together before marriage:

Christian Coffee Shop Owner Donates 100 Free Cars to Single Moms

Christian Coffee Shop Owner Donates 100 Free Cars to Single Moms



A new coffee company that calls itself the “anti-Starbucks” is offering free cars to 100 single moms – all in the name of Christ.


Burly Man Coffee, which launched in December, says the campaign mirrors its slogan: “Be Kind. Drink Great Coffee.”  


“As a Christian [company,] we’re supposed to be the hands and feet of Jesus,” company founder Jeremy Wiles told Fox News. “I don’t think you’re supposed to go to church on Sunday and just pretend to be a Christian through the week. There’s a lot of Christians across the country that share the same values as Burly Man Coffee.”


The single moms campaign started in March. 


“We are filling in the gap where other men have abandoned ship,” the company says on its website. 


Wiles referenced Starbucks’ support for Planned Parenthood. Starbucks matches employers’ donations to the abortion provider. 


“They support death – and we support life,” Wiles toldFox News. “We’ve been passionate about coffee for a long time… and we said, ‘Look, why don’t we do something more than just sell coffee?’”


The campaign, Wiles added, helps counter the problem of fatherlessness. 


“If you look at what’s going on in some of the most impoverished parts of our country – there’s gun violence, there’s crime, there’s poverty – but what’s at the root of that is fatherlessness,” he…

LifeWay Research Finds 1 in 10 Young Protestants Have Left the Church because of Sex Abuse

LifeWay Research Finds 1 in 10 Young Protestants Have Left the Church because of Sex Abuse



A new study from LifeWay Christian Resources says that younger Christians are choosing to leave the church if there are allegations of sexual misconduct.


According to Christianity Today, 10 percent of Protestant churchgoers under 35 report they have left a church because sexual misconduct had not been taken seriously.


Among all churchgoers, that same number is only 5 percent.


Nine percent of the young Protestant churchgoing group also said they stopped attending the church because they felt unsafe with the allegations of sexual misconduct at the church.


More than 20 percent said they would also report sexual harassment.


“It is not surprising that young adults who have only known this frank ‘call it what it is’ sexual culture to be more likely to identify instances of misconduct than older adults,” Scott McConnell, executive director of LifeWay Research which conducted the survey, told CT.


The youngest generation is also two to three times more likely than the oldest generation to say they have “experienced sexual harassment in the form of sexualized compliments and jokes, sexting, or prolonged glances.”


Justin Holcomb, an expert on sexual abuse in the church and a board member of GRACE (Godly Response to Abuse in the Christian Environment), said the highest risk for sexual assault is for those aged 12 to 34.


“I believe the…

Court upholds sentence of Christian pair jailed for ‘spreading propaganda against the regime’

Saheb Fadaie and Fatemeh Bakhteri were sentenced to 18 months and twelve months respectively on 22nd September 2018. Fadaie also received an additional two years in exile in Nehbandan – a remote area near to the border with Afghanistan.

They were accused of attacking Islam by discussing Christian doctrine in house churches.

 

It later emerged that during their final appeal hearing in January, the pair refused to renounce their faith after being asked to do so by the two presiding judges – who have both previously been accused of involvement in human rights violations.

Fadaie is already serving a ten-year sentence in Tehran’s Evin prison, following his arrest along with fellow members of the Church of Iran denomination, Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani, Mr Mohammadreza Omidi and Mr Yasser Mossayebzadeh on 13th May 2016.

There has been a rise in recent years of raids by security agents on Christian homes in the city of Rasht.

 

Christian Solidarity Worldwide’s (CSW) chief executive Mervyn Thomas said: “These…
