A season can change a town, and sometimes a single point can change a life. We revisit a 15-0 run that opened and ended with overtime thrillers, stitched together by conditioning, trust, and a single-wing playbook that punished angles and rewarded courage. From Blacksburg’s tone-setting two-point call to a kick return that flipped Christiansburg, from Graham’s track-meet chaos to Galax’s bruising brilliance with Steve...
We trace David’s narrow path between justice and restraint as Abigail’s wisdom averts bloodshed, Saul’s jealousy returns, and a desperate king seeks answers in the dark at Endor. The thread is conscience under pressure and how God uses ordinary courage to steady future kings.
• mourning Samuel and a somber reflection on public violence
• Apostles’ Creed and the Lord’s Prayer to frame the study
• Nabal...
What if being called a child of God reshaped the way you treat your enemies, your neighbors, and your habits when no one’s watching? We journey through 1 John 3 to confront two uncomfortable truths: Christians are not sinless, and we cannot make peace with sin. That tension drives a richer holiness—one that refuses perfectionist myths, repents quickly, and grows in love that actually costs something.
We unpac...
Ballots open doors—and this year in Virginia, they may also redraw the map of power. We break down exactly how to vote with confidence, then dive straight into the real stakes: a historic governor’s race, a hard look at abortion policy, and a charged fight over whether the Commonwealth’s bipartisan redistricting system can be sidelined in a special session. No fluff, no hedging—just a clear-eyed view of what your choi...
A hunted man stands inches from ending his nightmare—knife sharp, breath steady—and chooses mercy instead. That’s the electric center of our walk through 1 Samuel 21–24, where David’s wilderness years confront our own reflexes toward control, fear, and vengeance. We move from the hunger of fugitives at the tabernacle to the roar of Goliath’s sword rediscovered, from a desperate act in Gath to the quiet horror at Nob, ...
Headlines don’t prepare you for the chill that comes from reading violent words aimed at real families. We take a hard look at Virginia’s turbulent moment: the leaked 2022 texts tied to AG candidate Jay Jones, the outrage they sparked across party lines, and what that says about character, trust, and the basic safety we expect from those who want to lead. We also unpack Abigail Spanberger’s “let your rage fuel you” re...
The assassination of Charlie Kirk has left America reeling, confronting us with profound questions about our political discourse and shared humanity. At just 31 years old, Kirk—founder of Turning Points USA, husband, and father of two young children—was gunned down while doing what he dedicated his life to: engaging with college students and fellow Americans in open dialogue.
Kirk often said, "When we st...
Meet Mr. Cornett, the Republican nominee for Virginia's 46th House of Delegates district, who brings a refreshing perspective to local politics with his commitment to economic revitalization and ethical governance.

When was the last time you truly listened to your grandparents' stories? In this intimate family conversation, a grandson sits down with his grandparents, Don and Evelyn Scott, to capture their voices, memories, and wisdom for future generations.
Don and Evelyn take us back to childhoods marked by material poverty but spiritual richness – homes without electricity where oil lamps provided light and pot-b...
Samuel's aging and his corrupt sons created a leadership crisis in ancient Israel. Rather than trusting God's theocratic model, the elders demanded "a king such as all other nations have." This pivotal moment reveals the fascinating interplay between human free will and divine sovereignty that continues to challenge believers today.
"It is not you they have rejected, but they have rej...
David and Jonathan's godly friendship demonstrates how two men can share deep love without romantic implications, while King Saul's destructive jealousy highlights the dangers of comparison and hardening one's heart against God's will.
• David becomes friends with Jonathan after defeating Goliath in battle
• King Saul grows intensely jealous when people praise David more than him
•...
The evangelical church faces a moral crisis as the Israel-Hamas war continues to devastate Gaza, leaving tens of thousands dead and a humanitarian catastrophe. We must reconcile our support for Israel with our Christian duty to speak against injustice and suffering, recognizing that being pro-Israel doesn't require ignoring Palestinian suffering.
• Over 60,000 Palestinians killed according to Gaza health...
The most important question anyone will ever answer is "Who is Jesus?" because how we respond determines everything in this life and the next.
• Different faith traditions have vastly different views of Jesus that fall short of biblical truth
• Jewish perspective often sees Jesus as merely a failed revolutionary against Rome
• Muslims view Jesus as a great prophet but deny his divinity and r...
Faith and courage transform an ordinary shepherd boy into the unexpected champion of Israel when everyone else is paralyzed by fear and intimidation. David's righteous indignation at Goliath's mockery of God becomes the catalyst for one of the most famous victories in biblical history.
• Goliath stood between 6'9" and 9' tall, making him a truly intimidating opponent by any standard
Trump's signature legislative achievement of his second term has finally become law. The massive 887-page "Big Beautiful Bill" represents a sweeping attempt to reshape America's economic, healthcare, and immigration landscapes while extending the tax cuts that defined his first administration.
For Christians concerned about life issues, the bill delivers a significant win by temporarily de...
When religious leaders abuse their authority, the wounds can feel deeper than almost any other relational breakdown, yet separating human failures from God's character is essential for spiritual healing.
• Church hurt occurs when religious leaders or communities harm believers through manipulation, judgment, or abuse of power
• Personal testimony of experiencing a church split when a pastor became co...
The story of King David's rise from humble shepherd to Israel's greatest monarch contains some of Scripture's most profound lessons about leadership, faith, and God's unexpected choices.

We explore the fascinating narrative fou...
Two notable deaths this week create a fascinating connection to America's past: Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty and Harrison Ruffin Tyler, the grandson of America's 10th president John Tyler.
• Phil Robertson's testimony of transformation from troubled life to a Christian that impacted millions
• Harrison Tyler was the direct grandson (not great or great-great) of President John Tyler who wa...
