Ann Bailey What a day it is! The great “Kiss-In” at Chick-fil-A. You’d think that after the astounding groundswell of support for free speech and traditional marriage that took place on Wednesday, that the gay lobby would at least lay low for a while. Alas, ‘tis...
Allison Malnar I read an article yesterday that cited Bill Clinton’s State of the Union Address from January 1994. He stated, ”In ten years, one-half of all children born in America will be illegitimate.” I was shocked! I have been on the computer for over an...
Ann Bailey Gather up your family and friends, today, and head for your local Chick-fil-A. Here’s your chance to stand up for free speech, religious freedom and traditional marriage. It is important that politicians, media, and gay advocates not be allowed to bully and discriminate against...
It was all over the news last week: "U.S. poverty heads toward highest level in 50 years." Other countries around the world, notably Greece and Spain, continue to struggle with insolvency and surging rates of poverty. Economists and other experts point to all sorts of...
Another UN treaty that would put the U.S. in the cross-hairs of unelected international bureaucrats was passed out of the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee last week. Supporters of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) hope that the Senate vote...
Melissa Anderson I put much of my past focus on the pro abortion campaign of the United States. However, the organization I write for is United Families International. We focus on family everywhere in the world, attempting to raise awareness to the degradation of the family...
Rachel Allison Recently I read an article entitled “Spoiled Rotten.” It was a great article that I sent to all my married children. Now whether or not they read it…or took it seriously, I don’t know…all I know is that I have had all nine of...
Ann Bailey Two women, same ethnicity, same approximate age, similar background growing up, similar education, both with children, both work hard. One lives at the poverty level and survives with the aid of food stamps – the other lives comfortably in a middle class life-style. The...

Diane Robertson The two terms: “Freedom of Religion” and “Freedom of Worship” sound pretty synonymous. But are they? In recent years, President Obama and Secretary of State Hilary Clinton have often used the term, “Freedom of Worship” in place of “Freedom of Religion.” What are the...
Rachel Allison My daughter and I had a conversation recently that made me crazy. One of her friends has three teenage daughters. A few months ago, the fourteen-year old, Mary, spent the night at my daughter’s home. She slept on the floor with sheets and blankets...
Are children more protected from the devastation of porn that they were six months ago? The answer is a resounding “no.” The advocates of the domain .XXX sold the world a lie when, last year, they convinced ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers)...

Diane Robertson On the fourth of July, I always like to ponder the founding of our great nation, read the Declaration of Independence, and sing some of the great songs about our freedom, liberty, and the sacrifices that so many men and women made to make...
Rachel Allison How many times have I heard about families being separated because of a temporary mid-life crisis, a priority brain-freeze, or some other misplaced family distraction by a husband or wife? Too often pride gets involved during the process, and before we know it lives...
Danny Quinney It has been a crazy busy week. I have soooooooo much I want to write about. I’m tempted to write about Fast and Furious (it’s complicated, but I think I’ll understand it better if I write it out), I want to write about Mayor...
Diane Robertson It seems like the food business has suddenly become interested in politics. As it turns out their values are not my values. It actually started with my beloved Ben and Jerry’s ice cream nearly three years ago. To celebrate when the state of Vermont legalized...
Ann Bailey "So what programs on television promote and/or normalize premarital sex?" That was the question that I asked UFI's intern. She paused for a moment and replied: "All of them!" Contrary to what you are led to believe by media and popular culture, convincing young...
Rachel Allison This past weekend my three sisters and I assembled for some much needed emotional strengthening. Our conversations focused on the battles that our children and grandchildren are facing, and how we as women of faith could fortify and support them against the onslaught of...
The media will tell you that the Rio +20 Sustainable Environment Conference began on Wednesday, June 20, with world leaders converging on Rio de Rio de Janeiro, but for the pro-family world the drama ended in the days prior. It ended with the completion of...

Ann Bailey In the post-father’s day review of the news, I came across one article that demands some comment. “The Gift of Being Gay and a Dad” (The New York Times) chronicles a gay man’s feelings on believing that he would never be able to have...
Rachel Allison Every year Father’s Day gives occasion to reflect on the influence and role our dads have played in our lives. My dad certainly wasn’t perfect, but my memories for the most part are positive and endearing. With 10 mouths to feed I can’t say...
