Thoughts After Reading Ron Citlau’s Article on the RCA

From my perspective the days of peace are over, not just for the RCA, but for the Reformed Faith around the world.

Written by Charles D'Espeville  | Thursday, April 2, 2020

Back in the 1990s, and likely earlier, we were convinced to abandon two fundamental Reformed principles: Church Discipline and the Authority of Scripture. Not openly, of course. It was framed as love, compassion, and the desire for peace; a putting aside of differences. But lying on the street (Rev.11:3), was the Word of God.  The... Continue Reading

Tampa Megachurch Pastor Arrested After Leading Packed Services Despite ‘Safer-at-Home’ Orders

Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel said the arrest is discriminatory and the county's order is being unconstitutionally applied to the church.

Written by Haley Hinds | Wednesday, April 1, 2020

Howard-Browne, 58, turned himself in Monday afternoon after Sheriff Chad Chronister and State Attorney Andrew Warren on Monday announced an arrest warrant had been issued for charges of unlawful assembly and violating public health emergency rules of isolation and quarantine. Howard-Browne was released 40 minutes later after posting a $500 bond.   TAMPA, Fla. –... Continue Reading

The Eclipse of the Gospel and the School of Hard Knox

Church history matters because when we forget the past, we fail to learn valuable lessons that impact our lives.

Written by Dr. David S. Steele | Sunday, March 29, 2020

Even as a young Bible College student, I failed to understand the importance of church history. The buildings seemed so old and the names were so hard to pronounce. It is a sentiment that is not unique to me. I hear it all the time. I hear the cruel remarks about John Calvin and the... Continue Reading

Remaining Connected in a Season of Social Distancing

May the watching world see the Church of Jesus thrive during a season of unrest and public panic.

Written by Josh Buice | Sunday, March 22, 2020

The church is God’s plan for his people. We are called the body of Christ and the body has a functionality that is greatly disrupted by disconnect. It’s extremely important for leaders to listen, pray, and use the necessary technological tools that will enable the local church to remain connected, serving, worshipping, and caring for...

Vanguard Presbytery Calls for a Convocation of Sessions

Vanguard Presbytery is calling for a Convocation of Sessions for July 30, 2020 in Nashville, Tenn.

Written by Dewey Roberts | Friday, March 20, 2020

There are several things that make Vanguard Presbytery, and the new denomination which will be formed out of this new movement, an attractive option for those who want a confessional and Reformed denomination. A priority of every local church and regional court in this new denomination will be to pray for the outpouring of the... Continue Reading

If I Were an Abuser, What Church Would I Want to Attend?

I pondered this question on my long flight home: Where would I want to go to church if I were an abuser?

Written by Nancy Murphy | Thursday, March 19, 2020

It was then that we began to unpack what the term domestic violence included, what we had imagined the term to mean, and what it really meant.  The definitions seemed to be eye-opening and I appreciated those that were willing to open up to an understanding of violence that moved from the image of black...

A Trial That Should Shame All Anglicans

Bishop of Albany William Love is charged with not permitting same-sex marriages in his diocese.

Written by David Baker | Thursday, March 19, 2020

You couldn’t make it up: a bishop whose name is ‘Will Love’, who upholds the gospel message as almost all Christians believe it, is being put on trial at the behest of a presiding bishop who preached on the importance of ‘treating each other like family’.   Remember that lovely, smiley American bishop who spoke...

Fear God, Not the Coronavirus: Two Pastoral Letters Encourage Us to Look to the Lord

Pastor Gibson is currently “self-isolating”, having developed symptoms associated with the Coronavirus pandemic.

Written by Paul Gibson and James Bordwine | Wednesday, March 18, 2020

If there is one thing that the Coronavirus should do, it should cause the world to seek the LORD while He may be found, to call upon Him while He is near. This virus is an act of judgement, for sure, but it is also an act of mercy; an opportunity given by God to... Continue Reading

Reasonable Service: What the PCA’s Latest Controversy Says about Its Understanding of Outreach, Evangelism,

Memorial Presbyterian Church is the same church that hosted the original Revoice conference in 2018, which set off a major controversy in the PCA in 2018.

Written by Steven Wedgeworth | Tuesday, March 17, 2020

It seems clear that Transluminate published opinions which violate the seventh commandment and are even contrary to the light of nature. After all, Transluminate featured plays which advocated for women to take testosterone treatments in order to become more like men, for transgender marriage and parenting, and for a human “to transform into another species.”...

Inside The Outbreak: Church In A Time Of Coronavirus

Congregations across the U.S. face grueling choices: to close or not to close because of the virus?

Written by Jamie Dean | Sunday, March 15, 2020

In Matthews, N.C. (a suburb of Charlotte), pastor Kevin DeYoung said Christ Covenant Church—a congregation of several hundred—wouldn’t meet for worship in its building on Sunday. DeYoung plans to preach from the church’s pulpit, and leaders will livestream the services online Sunday morning and evening. Smaller churches may not have as wide a slate of... Continue Reading
