Who was Mao Zedong—and what happens when an ideology tries to outvote reality? Segment 4 traces the Great Leap Forward, the Cultural Revolution, and the brutal cost of collectivism when “warmth” becomes enforceable. If Pol Pot is the shock of collectivism in miniature, Mao is collectivism at scale, not just a revolution, but a national experiment . And it’s one of the clearest historical examples of what happens when leaders try to vote reality off the island  with ideology.

Who was Joseph Stalin—and what happens when “care” becomes coercion? Segment 3 traces collectivization, famine, purges, and the gulag to expose the lie behind the “warmth of collectivism.” Collectivism rarely walks into the room saying, “I want control.” It walks in saying, “I want to help.” It speaks in the language of care, warmth, fairness, protection, dignity. It frames itself as the moral alternative to cold selfishness, and it usually starts with a real observation: peo

Who was Pol Pot—and what happens when “utopia” becomes enforceable? Segment 2 traces the Khmer Rouge’s “Year Zero” and the deadly cost of collectivism when compassion gets replaced by compulsion. The promise always comes dressed in comfort. Collectivism rarely introduces itself as control. It introduces itself as care . It says the world is cold, the strong are selfish, the system is rigged, and if we will just submit to the collective mission, we can finally create “warmth”—

Was Jesus a socialist—or did He offer something deeper than any political system? Segment 1 exposes the lie behind “the warmth of collectivism” and why real Christian warmth never requires compulsion. There’s a line that sounds like a warm blanket on a cold night: “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.” When I first heard it, my first emotion wasn’t anger. It was concern. Because this wasn’t said by a random commentator or a co

Jesus warned about blasphemy of the Holy Spirit—but not to terrify sincere seekers. This article explores what He meant, what He didn’t, and why only God can judge the heart. Few of Jesus’ statements have caused more confusion, fear, and speculation than His warning about the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit . Often called the unpardonable sin , it has been misunderstood, misapplied, and sometimes weaponized—especially against those already wrestling with doubt, guilt, or fear. B

A visual look at how children’s entertainment shifted from guarded, value-shaped media to algorithm-driven content that increasingly forms identity, desire, and belief—often without parental awareness. A Three-Era Look at Media, Morality, and Childhood Every generation has had entertainment that pushed boundaries. That part is not new. What is  new is who the boundaries are being pushed for . Forty to twenty-five years ago, there was a strong cultural assumption that children

“I Need to Lie Down.” In the 1990 film Kindergarten Cop , one of the most quoted lines comes from a classroom scene meant to highlight the blunt honesty of children: “Boys have penises. Girls have vaginas.” The line worked because it wasn’t clever. It wasn’t philosophical. It was simply obvious. The humor came from how jarringly matter-of-fact  it was, especially in a room full of adults who were far more uncomfortable than the children. Thirty-five years later, that same lin

New year… same faithful God. Don’t start from scratch—start from grace, walk in hope, and watch out for the subtle traps that try to turn growth into self-salvation. There’s something about a new year that makes us breathe differently. Even if January 1st is just another square on the calendar, it feels  like a threshold. Like the air has been rinsed. Like we get to step forward with a cleaner story than the one we just lived. Some people love that. Some people hate it. (If y

One Light. One Cross. Many broken pieces—made whole only by the Light behind them. When you look at a stained-glass window, it’s easy to think you’re seeing many lights. Reds, blues, golds, greens—each piece glowing with its own brilliance. But that’s an illusion. There is only one light. The colors do not come from the light itself. They come from the glass. The light remains unchanged—pure, undivided, constant. What changes is what the light passes through. How Stained Glas

Ancient civilizations carefully observed the heavens, believing the stars governed fate—yet they missed the Creator who spoke not through the sky, but through His Word. Look up into the night sky. For us, that means maybe catching a glimpse of a few stars between streetlights and city glare. But for ancient civilizations, the night sky was everything. It was their calendar, their compass, their weather report, their navigation system, and—most importantly—their doorway into t
