Christians and Personal Empire Building

It is not about us and building our own little kingdoms.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Monday, July 1, 2024

“A church ought to be friendly to genuine seekers, but the church ought to recognize that there is only one Seeker. His name is God! If you want to be friendly to someone, if you want to accommodate someone, accommodate Him and His glory, even if it is rejected by everyone else. We are not... Continue Reading

A Quick Overview of the Triple Nones

Only eight percent of Americans are triple nones.

Written by Thom S. Rainer | Saturday, June 29, 2024

Simply put, a person has to pass three tests to be a triple none. Behavior. They never attend church.  Belief. They have no beliefs about God other than they doubt or deny his existence. In other words, they are agnostics or atheists. Belonging. They claim no religious affiliation or preference. The most notable data Burge produced in this aspect... Continue Reading

The Left’s Marriage and Family Dilemma Is a Nuclear Self-Own

The left’s anti-family ideology took hold and replicated so strongly that this virus will end up killing its hosts.

Written by Peachy Keenan | Friday, June 28, 2024

The plummeting birth and marriage rates are so alarming, and the solution so simple and profound, that I published a whole book about it last year. Domestic Extremist was written in response to the attempt by the left to turn concerned parents into literal domestic terrorists. The irony is that parents of big families are not actual domestic... Continue Reading

Where to Now? Living in an Anti- Christian West

Things have radically changed in a few short decades.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Thursday, June 27, 2024

A new book by American evangelical writer Aaron Renn looks at similar themes: Life in the Negative World (Zondervan, 2024). He uses differing terminology as he also looks at these three periods: -the positive world (1964-1994)-the neutral world (1994-2014) -the negative world (2014-present) (pp. 6-7). One can quibble about the dating, but the three periods correspond to... Continue Reading

Institutes of the Christian Religion: A Reader’s Guide to a Christian Classic

Calvin, like Scripture, highlights for us the importance of knowing God intimately (Jer. 9:23–24; John 17:3).

Written by Shawn Wright | Tuesday, June 25, 2024

Unfortunately—and incorrectly—some people assume that Calvin’s magnum opus must be the bedrock of the so-called “five points of Calvinism” and that Calvin must have used his book largely to defend his “Calvinism.” That’s not correct. The first sentence of the Institutes orients us to its two great themes: “Nearly all the wisdom we possess, that... Continue Reading

The Important New Book Helping Christians Make Sense of AI

Christians need to be part of the cultural conversation about AI. And we begin by using it wisely ourselves.

Written by Akos Balogh | Tuesday, June 25, 2024

In his book, Driscoll has given us the beginnings of AI literacy: a framework and principles through which to think about AI Biblically. If AI is confusing or scary to you, then this book will give you the perspective not only to understand AI, but to see it through a Biblical lens: a lens that... Continue Reading

Surprising Rebirth

The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God – a review of Justin Brierley’s remarkable new podcast series.

Written by Campbell Markham | Monday, June 24, 2024

 I have been encouraged and even energised by Brierley’s work. He has equipped us with fresh evidence of the Christian faith, with a vigorous recasting of old evidence, and a renewed confidence in the intellectual and logical rigour of Christianity. He has given us a fund of podcasts to share with others on their journey.... Continue Reading

7 Lessons from the Book of Revelation

Theological, Eschatological, and Practical Lessons of Revelation

Written by Joel R. Beeke, Paul M. Smalley | Thursday, June 20, 2024

Revelation prepares believers to walk with Christ through tribulation. Acknowledge that we live in the last days because Christ has accomplished redemption, and trust that the exalted Lamb is executing God’s decree and leading the church through its eschatological woes to reach the kingdom.   The book of Revelation says much concerning Christ’s coming, judgment...

Selina Hastings – the Means of Doing Much Good

Mrs. Cook’s account of Selina Hastings is an example of historical Christian biography at its very best.

Written by Vance Christie | Tuesday, June 18, 2024

Selina also heard of a soldier’s wife who had just given birth to twins and was not expected to live. The countess responded quickly by helping the young woman as much as she was able—physically, materially and spiritually. The dying mother wept as she began to understand her sinful state before God and begged Selina... Continue Reading

Deconstructing – But From What?

"Faith deconstruction is a postmodern process of rethinking your faith without regarding Scripture as a standard."

Written by Don and Joy Veinot | Friday, June 14, 2024

We would like to offer a solution that could bring the deconstructors right back to their senses if they will only accept it. They should put aside their rage, ask God’s forgiveness, and call on the One who purchased and provided redemption for all of us at His own expense. Deconstructionism is really just another...
