Yesterday, Charles Krauthammer, one of the most insightful political commentators of our day, received the 2009 Eric Breindel Award for Excellence in Opinion Journalism. The New York post published some of Mr. Krauthammer's remarks upon receiving the honor. An excerpt: At a time when awards in the humanities are a near-monopoly of the left -- Nobel peace prizes awarded to those, from Yasir Arafat to Jimmy Carter, who give the most succor to the forces of terror and tyranny; Pulitzers given to whichever newspaper can expose the more damaging national-security secrets -- it is important for … [Read more...] about Charles Krauthammer Wins Major Journalism Award

Noel Piper's latest book, Do You Want a Friend?, is now available. This beautifully illustrated hard cover book begins with the story of a little boy who moves to a new town with his family and wishes to make some friends.

This theologian sought to defy the regime that was murdering the Jewish … [Read more...] about Albert Mohler in Chicago Tribune
