Instead of ruling on the Record of the Case and the Constitution, they ruled merely with regard to the complaint before them. Thus now, according to the SJC, Leithart very well may be teaching heresy against the confession. The PNWP may have erred in exonerating him. However, the complainant didn’t prove that. The SJC, like... Continue Reading

As of April 2013, two books were blacklisted at the request of the German child protection services because they promote spanking. The first is Michael and Debi Pearl’s To Train up a Child, the second is Ted Tripp’s Shepherding a Child’s Heart.

Here is a powerful pagan/interfaith movement that believes that the religious experience at the heart of all the religions and philosophies, both East and West, is the same.

I’m not defending anyone-I’m simply noting how fast the definitions of “homophobia” and “bigotry” are changing. Take the issue of same-sex marriage.

You physician has been licensed to practice medicine in your area and he has been admitted to this board or that of specialization. Those things are not... Continue Reading

I can’t help but chuckle at the irony! I went in to “upgrade” my phone so that I’d have a larger screen, better speakers, and because it came with a no-ad version of Pandora for a year (call quality and a better antenna were somewhere on the wish list, too!). Leave it the sovereign Lord... Continue Reading
