Americans are more likely to find their ‘meaning in life’ in money than in faith
What makes your life meaningful? For Christians the answer should be some variation of our faith in God. But if that’s your answer you are distinctly in the minority in the U.S. The Pew Research Center conducted two separate surveys, one that included an open-ended question asking Americans to describe in their own words what makes their lives feel meaningful, fulfilling, or satisfying, and another that gave respondents an opportunity to describe the myriad things they find meaningful, (i.e., faith...

Alejandro Chafuen in Forbes: The U.S. economy in 2019 – challenges and lower expectations
Where is the economy heading in 2019? Changes in economic growth are much less volatile than the performance of stock markets. In order to forecast what will happen in an economy it is better to focus on the fundamentals, which is to say, examining causes rather than effects.

In this finalpart of a three-part series on criminal justice reform, we’ll consider some of the implications of...
