Five Dead; Teen Accused in Killing Spree

The father was a former member of the pastoral staff at Calvary Chapel in Albuquerque

Written by Jeff Proctor and Patrick Lohmann, Albuquerque Journal | Thursday, January 24, 2013

But Nehemiah called a friend first, who talked him into meeting at Calvary church, where Nehemiah’s father had been a pastor. It was apparently a Calvary church security officer who contacted 911 about the slayings at the Griego home late Saturday…. The couple had 10 children, but only the three youngest and Nehemiah were at... Continue Reading

Whose Yoke Are You Under?

His yoke is easy and His burden light

Written by Ed Welch | Thursday, January 24, 2013

This is a strange yoke. It is light, which means that Jesus is doing the heavy lifting. And he is lifting a lot. He kept the law on our behalf, he forgives us as we sin, and as we follow him we adopt his perfections and status as beloved by the Father. Given that he... Continue Reading

Anything but ‘Grey’: Thoughts on the Best-selling Trilogy

The foremost issue with 50 Shades of Grey is not an overload of sex, but a lack of godly truth

Written by Caroline Leal, WNS | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

Fifty Shades of Grey is rife with incredibly potent, eroticized lies about sex and human nature, Clements said. The novels tell women that love is most exciting when it is dangerous or taboo, that relationships are most compelling when they’re about wielding power rather than exercising sacrificial love, and that “being used is a way...

Ten Basic Facts about the NT Canon that Every Christian Should Memorize: #1

The New Testament Books are the Earliest Christian Writings We Possess

Written by Michael Kruger | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

Every Christian should remember one basic fact, namely that the New Testament books are distinctive because, generally speaking, they are the earliest Christian writings we possess. None are earlier. If so, then it seems that the books included in the New Testament are not as arbitrary as some would have us believe. On the contrary,... Continue Reading

MLK’s Dream and the Nightmare of Black Genocide

For every two African American women that get pregnant, one will choose to abort

Written by David Mathis | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

Because of the disproportionate number of Blacks who have been aborted, it’s difficult not to make the connection between King’s dream and the nightmare of abortion, and ask, Have not the last 40 years of Roe significantly undermined the cause that King so tirelessly gave himself to until 1968?   Black genocide. That’s Clenard Childress’s... Continue Reading

We Know They Are Killing Children—All of Us Know

We are not ignorant; we are without excuse

Written by John Piper | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

One biblical principle of justice is that the more knowledge we have that our action is wrong, the more guilty we are, and the more deserving of punishment (Luke 12:47–48). The point of this blog post is that we know what we are doing — all America knows. We are killing children. Pro-choice and Pro-life... Continue Reading

The Troubled State of Christian Preaching

What Giglio got right and the church often gets wrong

Written by Mark Galli, Christianity Today | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

The current state of our preaching is driven by an admirable desire to show our age the relevance of the gospel. But our recent attempts have inadvertently turned that gospel into mere good advice—about sex, about social ethics, about how to live successfully. This either offends or bores our culture. A renewed focus on the... Continue Reading

On the Necessity of Theological Courage in the Public Square

One must have courage in one’s veins to withstand the secular forces that would elbow Christian faith out of society

Written by Owen Strachan and Andrew Walker, First Things | Wednesday, January 23, 2013

So Christians are not unloving and hateful for calling for repentance (and the right to do so, or even the right to be an evangelical in public). Confessional Christianity in the public square, involving the affirmation of moral transcendence on matters of moral consequence, is theological courage, and theological courage is by nature motivated by...
