Why Won’t the Librarians Blush?
Remember when librarians were considered the frigid do-gooders of society? Today, they no longer know how to blush.
If we don’t oppose events like the tranny story hour, we cede the war by handing over the next generation. These story hours are not an innocent opportunity for nice fairy people to give back to their community. These are confused, sinful people who are after generational acceptance. They want to confuse our children into... Continue Reading
How a Handful of Billionaires Created the Transgender “Movement”: An Interview with Jennifer Bilek
The medical-tech sector is trying to confer human rights upon a group who are seeking to disown their humanity.
The primary catalysts driving the gender industry are rooted in technological developments entwined with an unfettered market. Medical-sex identities, along with technological reproduction, are at the forefront of attempts to advance our species beyond our current human borders. The strategic linking of an agenda aimed at deconstructing reproductive sex with a civil rights movement centered... Continue Reading
Truthful Thinking Is Greater than Positive Thinking
We must concern ourselves with things that matter to God.
Truthful thoughts are greater than positive thoughts because truth sets us free (John 8:32). Positive thinking is great when immersed in truth. But positive thoughts often get unhinged from reality, causing us to get stuck in cycles of frustration and deception. Christianity claims that truth exists. Not my truth or your truth, but real,...

Dead or Alive?
Our Glorious Salvation, Part 2
Here is the truth: You don’t have to sin anymore! You are no longer a slave to sin as a ruler, but you are a slave to Christ and His grace. You have a choice and a power that you never had. You have been made right because of Christ, and you can use each... Continue Reading
Principles to Remember in Crisis: God’s Immediate Purposes Are Not Always Knowable
We do not know the intricacies of God’s plan.
It is impossible for us to discern exactly why anyone goes through crisis. Instead, we need to do two things: 1) Trust God and 2) Consider our own hearts to see if we are right with God. Recently in the first post of this series, we revealed that the Apostle Paul provided two vital... Continue Reading
3 Misunderstandings of Christian Contentment
Submission to God’s Sovereign Will in Hardship
Godliness with contentment is great gain, but we must not misinterpret what it is to such a degree that we turn this wonderful doctrine into something wretched. Godly contentment is not incompatible with feeling the pain of affliction, making our complaints known to God, or seeking lawful ways of escape. As Jeremiah Burroughs puts... Continue Reading
The Receding Tides of New Atheism
Book Review—"The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God," by Justin Brierley
The story of the West is so bound up in the story of Christianity that it is easy to forget the water we are all swimming in. This is true of the moral values we deem worth fighting for: “when we exalt humility and compassion, or champion the equality and dignity of every human being,... Continue Reading
When God Blesses Others and Not Us
Avoid the temptation of bitterness.
“The Spirit of the Lord is not straitened, and what he bestows on one corner of the vineyard is not given at the expense of another. It is rather designed to awaken a desire and expectation for like gifts of grace, where they have not yet been received, and to give manifest proof to all... Continue Reading
Therapeutic Antinomianism
The form of antinomianism most prevalent today is the belief that if Christians are straightforwardly taught that they must obey God they will actually be pushed away from God.
Therapeutic-antinomian preaching follows a predictable pattern. Take any imperative of Scripture, tell the congregation how they are unable to obey that imperative, and then urge them to trust that Christ has obeyed it for them. Then end the sermon. Every sermon will be the same, no matter the text. This week my wife wrote... Continue Reading
O Day of Rest and Gladness: A Biblically Charismatic Liturgy for the Lord’s Day
It is entirely possible that apart from one’s daily quiet time with the Lord, there is no more important activity for a Christian man or woman.
Because God desires to meet with his people, and because their needs are so very great, he carefully regulates his own worship. In particular, he gives us detailed instructions concerning the attitudes, actions, and procedures that are proper to the gathering of the whole church. We may think of these regulations as borders with which he surrounds, creates, protects,... Continue Reading
