DIVINE INTERVENTION, THE PRESENCE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, UNCOVERING THE HIDDEN THINGS, EXPOSING THE TRUTH
How did Divine Connection News gain access to witnesses and information that outside journalists may have struggled to find? In this new article, Craig Arnold and Justin Peterson explain how relationships inside the Stonebriar Church community shaped the investigation—and why DCN deliberately withheld ages and other identifying details to protect sources who feared retaliation or possible danger.
A major violent incident, a destroyed building, wounded survivors, unanswered calls—and almost no public record. The Echo Chamber of Silence examines how the reported Dallas Church Massacre could disappear from the public information landscape, while survivors and witnesses were left to reconstruct what happened through fragmented conversations, hospital accounts, and memories of the night.
Who was the four-year-old French-speaking boy remembered as “Gavroche” in Scotland’s Les Misérables? This article examines the diplomatic and geopolitical world surrounding Lebanon in the mid-1980s, tracing possible clues to the child’s origins through the shadow of the Lebanon Hostage Crisis, French diplomatic circles, and a period when war, kidnapping, evacuation, and international instability left vulnerable people dangerously exposed.
Why should Christians outside Scotland care about its constitutional future? This article examines why nonpartisanship should not become moral indifference—and how pastors, ministry leaders and Christian readers can become informed witnesses to Scotland’s pursuit of justice, accountable authority and the right to be heard.
Scottish independence belongs to the Scottish people—not to one political party. DCN examines why holding the SNP accountable does not weaken Scotland’s independence cause, how legitimate scrutiny differs from political exploitation and why a movement seeking national authority must be strong enough to confront the truth about its own leaders.
Scotland has its own police, courts and trafficking laws—but responsibility can become fragmented when cases cross borders or involve powers retained at Westminster. This article examines how gaps between laws, agencies and jurisdictions can weaken accountability, leave vulnerable people exposed and create opportunities for powerful perpetrators to evade consequences.
Reserved powers are not merely constitutional language. Decisions retained at Westminster—over immigration, employment law, energy, much of social security and Scotland’s fiscal framework—reach directly into Scottish homes, workplaces and communities. This article examines why the division of power matters to families, vulnerable people and the future of Scotland.
Scotland has the institutions, legislation and administrative ability to conduct another independence referendum—but Holyrood cannot presently authorize the vote. This DCN explainer examines the 2014 agreement, the Supreme Court’s 2022 ruling, the legal routes that remain and why no democratic threshold currently requires Westminster to transfer the necessary power.
Scotland has its own parliament, government, legal system and public services—but it does not possess complete control over its constitution, borders, economy or international relationships. This DCN explainer examines what Holyrood can decide, what Westminster retains and why the difference between responsibility and final authority is central to the independence debate.
Scottish independence is often reduced to the fortunes of the SNP or disagreements between political parties. But the greater question is who should possess the final authority to determine Scotland’s future. DCN examines why independence concerns nationhood, democratic consent, accountability and responsibility—and why Christians should look beyond party labels to understand what is truly at stake.
