Penna Dexter My prayer for 2022 is that Christians across America would have courage. When a person chooses to be the best person he or she can possibly be when the consequences for doing that could be very harmful to them — that’s courage. Principled Christians can be cancelled, lose jobs, even face criminal penalties for standing against evil and…
Read NowPenna Dexter The Institute for Family Studies and the Wheatly Foundation recently published a report about Americans’ attitudes regarding marriage and child-rearing. Its title is, “The Divided State of Our Unions: Family Formation in (Post-) Covid-19 America.” It shows the “desire to marry” has ticked up a bit overall since the onset of Covid, while “the desire to have a…

Read NowPenna Dexter Of the books around my house meant for grandkids, Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar has been read the most. Often, several times at one sitting. The babies want to poke their little fingers through the nibble holes in the various foods the caterpillar eats. The older ones want to count the fruits, identify the days the caterpillar…
Read NowPenna Dexter I both love and dread the holiday season. A couple of years ago, the women of my church gathered over a meal to “ring in the holidays.” As our pastor addressed us, what we really wanted to know was how to get through the season without buckling under the pressure. Our young and wise pastor really gets it…
Read NowPenna Dexter For months now, politicians have been negotiating over trillions of dollars in new spending. Inflation is surging partially due to the “stimulus” dollars already injected into the economy for pandemic “relief.” Adding trillions more will exacerbate inflation. This spending has another devastating consequence in that it provides poor families with a disincentive to work. The Heritage Foundation’s news…

Read NowPenna Dexter With a climate change confab taking place in Glasgow, Scotland, I thought I’d share the response of a woman, in perhaps her 60’s or 70’s, to a young grocery clerk who suggested that next time she bring her own reusable grocery bag because “plastic bags are not good for the environment.” When the woman apologized, the clerk pointed…
Read NowPenna Dexter Every year, Congress funds the military by passing the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The bill is again working its way through Congress, with a disturbing twist. The House version contains a provision that requires all women ages 18-35 to register for the Selective Service, just as men are required to do. The Senate Armed Services Committee has…
