In case you needed just one more reason to pull your children from public school, watch this full video from a recent meeting of the Waterloo Region District School Board.  What a disgrace.  King Alfred Academy, a classical Christian academy started by Trinity Bible Chapel,  is taking applications for the next school year.  And weRead more

Canadian pastors have their litany of excuses for handing their churches and their worship over to Caesar.  Over the last two years, premiers and legislatures have demanded that churches close, cease gathering, move online, etc.  This was the necessary sacrifice as the state heralded the good news of salvation from COVID-19.  Believe on the deathRead more

On April 25, 2021, weRead more
