Private Worship

“How do you help others cultivate private worship?”

Written by Jacob Crouch | Saturday, July 12, 2025

We can hope for the nations to glorify Him, but does that happen in your own heart? Are you routinely falling before the throne to offer worship and praise? Do you hear His word and honor Him with your love and obedience? Do you actually speak His praise to Him? I want to be diligent... Continue Reading

Courageous Trust in the Lord

A study of Psalm 27.

Written by Kevin Carson | Saturday, July 12, 2025

In life, regardless of difficulties and struggles, look to God intently while depending upon His strength as you wait in hope. Psalm 27 calls us to courageous trust in God’s provision, presence, and promises. Here’s how you can consider applying this to your personal life today.   It is easy to love the Ozarks. The...

Forsake Not the Floor

The General Assembly IS the Grassroots.

Written by Brad Isbell | Saturday, July 12, 2025

We hear a lot about grassroots in the PCA—everyone seems to invoke grassroots (meaning bottom-up, not top-down governance) to support something or other. Well, if there are grassroots in the PCA, they grow from the concrete and carpet of the GA meeting hall floor. If grassroots exist, that’s where you’d find them.   The General... Continue Reading

The Guidance of God

How do you find guidance from God? Where does it come from?

Written by Geoffrey R. Kirkland | Friday, July 11, 2025

Even through afflictions, uncertainties, trials, and great struggles of life, God remains with His people He promises to His covenant-ones, “I am the LORD your God who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go” (Isaiah 48.17).    God’s guidance is His wise, decreed, good, and timely direction in orchestrating...

The Death of Christ—Who Is Responsible?

Understanding why Jesus died.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Friday, July 11, 2025

Christ would not have endured the cross and despised the shame if we had not sinned. So in a very real way we are responsible for Christ going to the cross. But to say this is not to negate the sovereign purposes of God.   There can be some confusion about the question in my... Continue Reading

The Classroom Coup: How Public Education Replaced Parents and Hijacked Discipleship

Christian parents urgently need to reclaim their God-given authority in raising and discipling their children.

Written by Virgil Walker | Friday, July 11, 2025

We are not fighting a curriculum. We are fighting a rival religion. One that has catechized generations. If you’re a father, act like a watchman. If you’re a mother, stand like a warrior. We don’t retreat—we rebuild.   Summary Highlight: Public education is not neutral—it’s a rival religion. This article exposes its ideological foundations, its... Continue Reading

Guarding the Gospel: Understanding the Dangers of Syncretism

There is a strong tendency by sinful people to redesign the Gospel to match their own desires and values.

Written by Forrest McPhail | Friday, July 11, 2025

Every distortion of the Gospel is syncretism, for it either adds to or subtracts from biblical Christianity (Revelation 22:18-19). It is heartbreaking to realize that major religions in the world today are hybrids of biblical Christianity mixed with all kinds of aberrant ideas: Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Roman Catholicism, and even Islam, among others.   Syncretism...

Was Marx Right About Religion?

The prospect of glory is no opiate.

Written by Graham A. Cole | Friday, July 11, 2025

Marx was wrong about a robust biblical faith. However, he may have been right about the kind of cultural Christianity he witnessed around him.    The Pathway to Glory Is the idea of glorification an opiate for the masses? Karl Marx would have thought so. He argued that religion leads the believer to focus on... Continue Reading

The Quiet Judgement on the UK

It came as the pale horse whose rider was named Death (Revelation 6:8).

Written by David Robertson | Thursday, July 10, 2025

The death cult that has gripped the UK is an inevitable result of the rejection of our Christian roots. As Dostoevsky argued in The Brothers Karamazov, “if there is no God, all things are permitted.”   And so, it has happened. It came—not as a bolt of lightning. Not as a flash of thunder. Not...

How We Do Love Thee! Let Us Count the Whys…

…because You first loved us.

Written by Dean Davis | Thursday, July 10, 2025

Because, having returned to heaven in victory, You seated Him at Your own right hand as high Prophet, Priest, and King of heaven and earth, Who then received from You the Holy Spirit, poured Him out on the nascent Church on the Day of Pentecost, and has been doing so ever since.   We love...
