Leaving Lent Behind
Thirteen reasons why Evangelicals in general, and the Reformed churches in particular, should leave Lent behind.
The more we recognize Christ and His work as sufficient, the less we need man’s endless legislation of rituals and observances to feel spiritually complete. However, the less we see Christ as sufficient the more vulnerable we will be to all sorts of clever ways to either add to the gospel’s sufficiency and/or efficiency. ... Continue Reading
What the Failure of Overtures 23 and 37 Means and the Way Forward
Instead of the three extra hours now added for debate and discussion of the defeated Overtures at the 49th General Assembly, add three hours of prayer, fasting and repentance
With the Scriptures agreed upon as the basis for determining Christian faith and practice, and the Westminster Standards as the summary of doctrine, one would expect agreement that homosexual behavior of any kind violates God’s revealed will. But, not all agree. Recently, a set of teachings has come into the church, mostly by way of... Continue Reading
Evangelism and the Devil’s Darts
Staying faithful in ministry by wearing the armor God has provided to protect us from the wiles of the evil one.
We need to be obedient to God’s command to go into the world and preach the gospel. Satan’s ultimate goal is to overthrow Christ and the church. But Ephesians 6:16 tells us specifically how to have victory in Christ by taking up the shield of faith which quenches the fiery darts. And believers are called... Continue Reading

Leaving or Staying? Four Questions From The ‘Doctor’
Martyn Lloyd-Jones’ four questions to those considering either staying or leaving their fellowship or denomination.
Lloyd-Jones did not intend for these questions to be the determining factor of whether one should stay or go in any particular controversy. They were to be a gauge for his audience to examine their motives and hearts as they pursued faithfulness to Christ and His church. Many of us have become immune to... Continue Reading
Reality Check & the Future of the PCA
Our convictions on union with Christ, regeneration, definitive and progressive sanctification, sin, concupiscence, biblical justice, and sexual ethics haven’t changed. Diverse approaches to Reformed ministry are acceptable, just not progressive ones.
The problem lies in the fact that a significant percentage of the PCA has moved from broad expressions of worship, ministry, and mission to progressive ones. Yes, that’s the main problem. Many of our churches, presbyteries, and agencies have shifted from broad to progressive, not unlike the wider evangelical world. Ten years ago Side B... Continue Reading
Gordon College Cancels Speaker For Describing “Culture in Chaos”
Students call speaker’s remarks misogynistic and transphobic.
In the context of a morning chapel sermon on 2 Corinthians 5, Daniels discussed topics including identity, saying the struggle to know who we are is “a big deal, both in Christian circles as well as non-Christian circles,” and that social media adds to the confusion.

Rise Up, Man!
While there is a time for young elders “to keep silence,” there is also “a time to speak” (Ecclesiastes 3:7).
A relatively small band of progressives have declared war against the PCA, demanding greater conformity, not to our confessional standards but to a version of the world’s standard of human sexuality in which one’s identity is determined by the sum total of their lusts. Their efforts have been magnified by the National Partnership; a highly... Continue Reading
Corporate Sin
We need to make sure that all that Scripture says on a subject is being proclaimed.
Scripture teaches us the necessity of being good evangelists (Matt. 28), but it also teaches us to be good watchmen (Ezek. 33) over the city and over the people. Shouldn’t we be just as concerned about the consequences of evil being unleashed–even on the Church–by corporate entities as we are about the salvation of souls?... Continue Reading
