Loving Those That the Woke Leaves Broke
Every ruler or ideology that places itself directly against the Most High will be defeated.
Even as we rightly aim to destroy demonic ideologies, we should labor to make it known that Christ calls those ensnared within them to come in repentance of their sin and find life and joy in Him. I have said once or twice that the Woke and LGBT ideology is a present manifestation of the spirit of the antichrist. And... Continue Reading
A Physical/Spiritual Dichotomy in Reading the Two Testaments
Removing the Old Testament from Christianity would be like removing color from a sunset.
The Old Testament prioritizes lineage, family, children, liturgy, feast days, priests, rituals, buildings, and land. The New Testament does not abolish these things. On the one hand, it actually further emphasizes their importance; the realities are more plainly manifested and understood. On the other, they are shown to be penultimate realities, for the telos is Christ Jesus.... Continue Reading
My Husband Sinned Against Me—Why Do I Carry the Shame?
Jesus, your loving, gracious, sovereign Lord, knows what it’s like to experience the “dirtiness” of someone else’s sin becoming his.
Sin in any relationship is serious, but since marriage is a unique covenant that represents Christ and the church, betrayal from a spouse is particularly devastating. Sexual unfaithfulness can shatter a wife’s sense of identity and worth. Her husband has not only gone outside the marriage but has actually brought pollution and idolatry into their union....

Book Review: Kevin DeYoung’s Men and Women in the Church
Gender differences aren’t arbitrary, they are God-given.
Your gender proclaims God’s glory! In love he made you male or female. So to be faithful to God’s design we must wholeheartedly affirm the glory of both genders, retain the differences between the two, and practice what is specific to each. In our historic moment, the categories of male and female are no... Continue Reading
The Postmodern Self: The Slope Immediately Becomes Slippery
Truth and falsehood are no longer discernible, and what is known to be factual becomes blurred and distorted—including biology, identity, and sexuality.
Mankind has always struggled with pride and hubris, but Selfism elevates vice to virtue and packages it as illumined personal discovery. Selfism, a product of the human potential movement, feeds our desire for meaning while stroking our ego. The Self rises as a divine spark. We are each divine selves, masters of destiny and voices of... Continue Reading
Cultivating Truthfulness in Public Life
Our public discourse on the issue of gender theory and transgenderism is bogged down in shallow soundbites, with emotion substituted for argument.
The most basic implication of gender theory continues to masquerade as a variety of other arguments: Who can get pregnant? What do we call a person with a uterus? What can we assume about other people without direct instruction? But it is just the same question, over and over again: Are there really people who believe in... Continue Reading
Modern Cultic Tendencies
Christians are no longer regularly taught the foundational truths of the Christian faith and are therefore left vulnerable to cultists and others who cleverly twist Scripture.
The church must then work to change the patterns of thought that contribute to the spread of cults and cultic tendencies. The church must reject irrational anti-intellectualism and embrace the God whose word is truth. Christians must regain both the desire and the ability to think—loving God with all of their heart and mind. Since... Continue Reading
What Two Gilded Age Christian Socialists Would Say to Evangelicals Today
In a day when there’s a socialist revival among young people, understanding the perspectives of these Christian socialists from history is more than an antiquarian curiosity.
These Gilded Age Christians would challenge us to examine the roots of our dearly held individualism critically. Rogers and Ely stressed a fraternity and equality based in their Christian anthropology — an understanding of humanity’s deep solidarity as divine image bearers. Given how many Christians around the world routinely vote for various social democratic parties,... Continue Reading
God Personally Cares for Children in the Womb and Prescribes Punishment for Aborting Them, Rewards for Protecting Them
We must respect and protect all lives; and according to Exodus 21:22-23, this includes the defenseless infant maturing in mother’s womb.
May we beware of such an abhorrent affront to God’s own personal handiwork upon each child in vivo by our nation (too often amidst a complacent and thus compliant church) and pray not only for no federal mandate of its toleration, but even more, for a national law enforced against it and upon every state of...

Know Who You Work For, and Work Like You Know It
If you claim that Jesus is Lord of your life, your work will look different because of it.
Seldom do we think of how our work reflects our submission to Christ as Lord. But here’s the reality: Disgruntled workers have a bigger issue than just a bad attitude. When we serve in such a way, we bring reproach upon the God who called us to do that work. The Christian’s charge is simple:... Continue Reading
