My husband and I have been married for 30+ years. In the beginning, I tried to “change” him, and ultimately discovered that I can only change myself.

Today’s Dating App Users Aren’t Happy. Technology Is Not Our Problem.

Studies suggest that almost half of American young adults ages 18–29 have used a dating app. When millennials are included in this cohort, the slightly smaller percentage still encompasses more than a third of the population.

Student asks Supreme Court to overturn ruling blocking public aid for religious studies

Representatives for Liberty University student Bethany Hall have filed a petition to the U.S. Supreme Court to reverse a decades-old court decision that has been used to bar Catholic institutions from receiving state funds.
