Paxton | Date Decided: 6/27/25 | Case No. 23-1122 Link to Docket: Here.Background:This Court has repeatedly held that States may rationally restrict minors' access to sexual materials, but such restrictions must withstand strict scrutiny if they burden adults' access to constitutionally protected speech.

WestWay Christian ChurchThe 1015 - The Spirit Who AssuresHow do you know you belong to God? What does it really mean to be part of God’s family? How does the Holy Spirit change the way we see ourselves—and each other?
This week, we continue our series on the Holy Spirit by looking at Romans 8:15–17. The Spirit doesn’t lead us into fear—He leads us into family. He confirms our identity as God’s children and unites us as co-heirs with Christ.
In a world that tries to define us by everything else, the Spirit reminds us who we truly are—and who we belong to.2025-06-0244 minSCOTUS Oral Arguments and OpinionsOral Argument: NRC v.

Countdown with Keith OlbermannTRUMP JUST STARTED THREATENING THE SUPREME COURT - 1.4.24EPISODE 2 SERIES 100: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) I misunderstood the first salvo.

Respecting ReligionSearching for common ground: SCOTUS hears Groff v. DeJoy The Supreme Court seemed less divided by ideological lines during the Groff v. DeJoy oral arguments, as justices searched for common ground to clarify a standard from a 1977 decision that no advocate seems to be fully supporting. Amanda and Holly share their thoughts from the day, playing key moments from the courtroom in their breakdown of the legal issues and sticking points in the case. What, exactly, constitutes “undue hardship” when looking at the practical realities of the modern workplace and the strain that one worker’s need – religious or not – can cause on others?
