Cities and states are beginning to decriminalize polygamy and recognize it as a union. Last week, Andrew Solomon wrote a https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/03/22/how-polyamorists-and-polygamists-are-challenging-family-norms (long piece in The New Yorker) normalizing polyamory by telling real-life stories. What does the Bible say about polygamy? How should Christians respond? We explore the cultural genealogy that brought us to this point and explain why there is no hope to turn back. Christians should focus less on preserving existing laws, and more on living faithfully in order to show a better story with their lives.

What would you do if your political opponent shoveled your driveway? Search for ulterior motives? Give them cookies? You know something's wrong when you can't say thank you to some one who disagrees with you politically, and yet that's exactly what the https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2021-02-05/trumpite-neighbor-unity-capitol-attack (L.A.
