My Dad, a ‘Good’ Death, and the Unforgivable Covid Era
Passing to the other side surrounded by those he loved had to have been comforting both for us and for my father. Not every death can be like that, obviously, but when they can it should be encouraged, not hindered.
There is something weirdly serene and almost holy about experiencing the death of someone you love dearly this intensely and this close. I don’t know any other way to describe it, but it changed me in ways I’m only beginning to fathom. The mind wanders during such ordeals, especially in the quiet moments before and... Continue Reading
The Holiness of God
Worship Him with trembling and with humility. Walk with purity, devotion, and intentionality.
“Woe is me, for I am undone!” The great problem of the world today — and of many professing ‘Christians’ nowadays — is a loss of the magnitude and wonder of the Holiness of God. This Holy God is not to be joked about, trifled with, toyed with, bargained with, or ignored. The holiness... Continue Reading
The Worthlessness of Cool
Coolness will be an obstacle to hard work, self-improvement, authentic living, and spiritual growth. Whatever you do, don’t try to look cool.
You might think you’re off the hook because you don’t care much about what you wear or drive, but how about your political opinions? Are they influenced by what you fear others will think of you? How about the books you read? Do you read certain books to gain credibility? Do you feel pressure to... Continue Reading
Loving Across the Ideological Fence
We will not love perfectly, but we must love intentionally.
Society and the mainstream media tries so hard to pit everybody against one another. And they are successful for the most part. Christians must resist this. We must not cave into the cultural pressure of hating those who don’t see things the way we do. Again, we must love those on the other side. ... Continue Reading
Test Yourselves to See If You Are in the Faith
Examine yourselves!
They prophesied, but did not pray, They cast out demons, but God did not regenerate them so that would be free of Satan and his demons. They sought to do mighty works in Jesus name, but they ignored the essentials of “Faith Alone.” Works of lawlessness or iniquity accompanied their mighty works. 21 “Not... Continue Reading
Reforming Our Vocabulary to Fit the Resurrection
Be careful to speak of it in terms that deliver us from our misconceptions and do justice to the greatness of Christ’s redemptive work.
It’s hard for us to think accurately about the New Earth because we’re so accustomed to speaking of Heaven as the opposite of Earth. It may be difficult to retrain ourselves, but we should do it. We must teach ourselves to embrace the principle of continuity of people and the earth in the coming resurrection... Continue Reading

The committee acknowledges the need for reconciliation and healing between the PCA and some of its sister denominations, as well as specific ministers and members within them. Appropriate steps will be taken to ensure our fellow Reformed and Presbyterian branches of Christ’s church know our deep love for them and desire to continue work alongside... Continue Reading
6 Categories of the Cross
Christ did all that needed to be done in order that our sins might be put away from God’s sight.
Whatever the world sees when it looks at the cross, that is what the eye of faith sees. Christ sloughed off the forces of evil, triumphing over them on the cross. There’s the thought of victory. Categories of the Cross Jesus Christ is, in fact, an expression of the temper of the whole New... Continue Reading
Pageant Winner Refuses Miss America Contract for Redefining “Female”
The Miss North Florida 2025 pageant winner has been stripped of her title after refusing to sign a Miss America contract that falsely defines “female” to include castrated males.
The contract requires female beauty candidates to agree to compete against biological males – who have been subjected to medical mutilation as minor boys – and agree that these mutilated males are “female.” When presented with the contract, Bush requested removal of the contract’s definitional language to keep from violating her religious beliefs and over...

The Promises of God and the Mundane of Everyday Life
Our small acts of faithfulness—no matter how ordinary—are often woven into tremendous testimonies of God’s blessing.
Joseph doesn’t lead military conquests like Joshua. Joseph doesn’t confront false prophets like Elijah. Joseph doesn’t fell great giants like David. Joseph doesn’t sail the high seas like Jonah. He’s a civil servant, a government official, a pen pusher. But his story reminds us that even in the faithful completion of the most mundane of... Continue Reading
