Prioritising the aid budget isn’t as Christian as it seems
Supporting our less fortunate brothers and sisters overseas is widely understood to be the Christian thing to do. But when some aid is used to impose contested Western agendas on developing countries, Lois McLatchie Miller argues that the issue is not so simple
Culture told us that marriage is outdated. Taylor Swift’s wedding says otherwise
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding has been celebrated by women across the West as if it were the news of a close friend. Lois McLatchie Miller argues that the fascination reveals a longing for love that our culture has often taught women to minimise – and one that the Church can breathe life back into
Andy Burnham might identify as Catholic, but will he uphold Christian ethics?
The man who wants to be PM was brought up as a Catholic, but he has also championed puberty blockers for transgender teens, expressed sympathy for assisted dying and signalled support for a conversion therapy ban. Lois McLatchie-Miller takes a closer look at Andy Burnham’s views on ethical issues
The collision of Islam and Pride reveals why Christians are politically homeless
A children’s book publisher has drawn criticism from many Muslims for its portrayal of a lesbian woman in a hijab. The controversy speaks to the changing definitions of ‘left’ and ‘right’ in British politics, says Lois McLatchie Miller. She argues that Christians must remember that no political coalition can fully represent our convictions
Pride month says “love is love”. So why ban marriage between cousins?
Lois McLatchie Miller says Sweden’s move to ban marriage between first cousins is waking society up to a truth Christianity has long understood. What if there are more boundaries to relationships than just consent?
IVF is not the solution to Britain’s birth rate crisis. God’s plan for the family is
The UK birth rate has fallen to its lowest level in half a century. While some blame economics, Lois McLatchie Miller argues that IVF is encouraging us to put our fertility on hold while pursuing our dreams. But for Christians, the technology comes with difficult ethical implications
Christianity-free zones have no place in the UK
A retired pastor has been convicted after reading John 3:16 on the fringes of a buffer zone near a hospital in Northern Ireland. If that’s enough to trigger criminal prosecution, we are entering dangerous territory, says Lois McLatchie Miller
If the UK abandons free speech protections for Christians, the ‘special relationship’ will not hold
Britain and America have enjoyed a close alliance for centuries, with King Charles’ visit to the White House the latest expression of the much-discussed “special relationship”. But as attitudes to free speech diverge, particularly affecting Christians, Lois McLatchie Miller says this relationship may come under strain
US Christians were right to vote for Trump – but his blasphemous Jesus image deserves criticism
Donald Trump’s posting of an AI-generated image depicting himself in the likeness of Jesus Christ has sparked fresh controversy. The incident comes after the President criticised Pope Leo XIV and published an expletive-laden threat to obliterate Iran. It’s raising pressing questions about the influence of the Christian leaders around Trump, says Lois Mclatchie Miller. Are they offering meaningful spiritual formation, or inadvertently fuelling a messiah complex?
Kanye West’s antisemitism was indefensible. But banning him from the UK is a dangerous response
Does Kanye West’s exclusion from the UK go beyond one man’s past remarks? Lois McLatchie Miller argues that embracing cancel culture will weaken the foundations of freedom
Kemi Badenoch has promised to repair Britain's churches. But Britain needs its moral foundations repaired first
Kemi Badenoch has pledged to restore church buildings, declaring Britain a ‘Christian nation’. But as Christians face prosecution for silent prayer and society strays further from Christian principles, Lois McLatchie Miller argues it is all in vain if the deeper crisis of abandoned Christian values goes unaddressed
When Noelia Castillo asked to die, the state said yes. The Church must proclaim hope in a culture of despair
Noelia Castillo Ramos endured a young life marked by suffering. A victim of sexual assault and left disabled after a suicide attempt, she was offered a state-sanctioned death as the solution. As the UK continues to face similar legislation, Lois McLatchie Miller warns where this logic leads - and why the Church must speak clearly
Can Christians still disagree with homosexuality? Finland’s Supreme Court says no
The conviction of Finnish MP Päivi Räsänen for expressing her Christian views on sexuality and marriage have chilling repercussions, says Lois McLatchie-Miller. Whatever your beliefs, the right to express them freely should be fiercely guarded
The public are clear about their position on abortion up to birth. The Church should be too
Parliament has once again pushed the boundaries of abortion law, but the public remain unconvinced — with just 1 per cent of women supporting abortion up to birth, notes Lois McLatchie-Miller. As the law moves further than most are comfortable with, the Church must speak clearly and courageously for both mother and child, she argues
Wednesday’s abortion vote marks a major test for the Church of England
Church of England bishops have a significant opportunity this week to guide our nation toward more godly laws, says Lois Mclatchie-Miller. Will they take it?
Why the grass isn’t Greener on the far-left of British politics

Christians should follow Danny Kruger’s lead. We need to talk about sex
Reform’s Danny Kruger this week argued the country is “suffering” from its attitudes towards sex. Lois McLatchie believes the MP is right to highlight how the sexual revolution’s promised liberation never arrived. The Church’s embarrassed silence has only added to the confusion, she says. It’s time to speak up
Rupert Lowe says Britain is a Christian country. Is it?
The Restore Party has been inaugurated with a pledge to keep Britain Christian at the centre of its mission, but with abortion rates high, porn culture thriving, and the meaning of marriage being diminished, Lois McLatchie-Miller questions whether Britain is currently Christian in anything other than name
The Epstein files have shone a light on the depth of man’s depravity. Only the Gospel can fix it
As Christianity’s moral framework has been abandoned in the West, Lois McLatchie-Miller says the sexual revolution that promised liberation has done nothing but enslave millions to deviancy
Nicki Minaj’s public faith shows secular Hollywood is losing its grip
The backlash against Nicki Minaj shows that speaking out about your Christian faith is still a no-no in Hollywood, says Lois McLatchie-Miller. But record sales and public support show that ordinary people agree with her stance on religious persecution and traditional Christian ethics
