How the New Corporate Elite Sold Same-Sex Marriage to the American Public

Darel Paul’s meticulous, courageous account of how the elites brought same-sex marriage to America deserves to be read by all who would understand where we are and where we're going.

Written by Scott Yenor | Sunday, May 6, 2018

It took forty years for elites to bring us the normalization of homosexuality and acceptance for same-sex marriage. They are using the same techniques now to achieve transgender rights, and success may be on the horizon. A country in which such serious erosions of fundamentally important institutions happen so swiftly may be a country celebrating... Continue Reading

3 Takeaways from New Research on Americans and the Bible

Every year, Barna and the American Bible Society release new research on behaviors and beliefs about the Bible among U.S. adults.

Written by Trevin Wax | Thursday, May 3, 2018

Perhaps the most startling takeaway in the research is that readers of the Bible overwhelmingly prefer a printed Bible (91%), even though they access the Bible in other formats (online, smart phone, and apps). Clearly, electronic forms of Bible reading are on the rise, but the arrival of the digital age has not changed Americans’... Continue Reading

Are Our Good Works Accepted by God?

How can any of our works be accepted by a holy God since there is so much sinfulness in even best of them?

Written by Shane Lems | Monday, April 30, 2018

In point of sanctification the good works of the justified may be accepted; that is, one’s person being accepted, his works may be accepted, being evangelically perfect, though not legally; being perfect in parts, though not in degrees. For in the way of the covenant of grace, the person is first accepted in Christ, and then his... Continue Reading

A History of Western Philosophy and Theology (Book Review)

The book leads readers on a fascinating journey that educates, contextualizes, and warns

Written by David S. Steele | Saturday, April 28, 2018

“HWPT is dedicated to Dr. Cornelius Van Til, whose influence is evident throughout the book. Readers who are entrenched in Van Til’s methodology will quickly recognize themes such as the Creator-creature distinction and the charge that non-Christian thought lapses into the intellectual bankruptcies of rationalism and irrationalism.”   The Word of God is emphatic about...

Will the Lord Leave Him? (Bunyan)

Though we are prone to leave the God we love, he is not prone to leave the people he loves.

Written by Shane Lems | Wednesday, April 25, 2018

“Here is grace! So many time as the soul backslides, so many times God brings him again—I mean, the soul that must be saved by grace-he renews his pardons, and multiplies them. ‘Behold, God does all these oftentimes with men, to bring back his soul from the pit, that he may be enlightened with the...

Heretic,’ and the Sad Stories of ‘Rebel’ Pastors

Two newly released films flip the usual script, pitching the “I was once a megachurch pastor” narrative as a renegade hero’s journey.

Written by Brett McCracken | Tuesday, April 24, 2018

These films pitch their protagonists—Pearson and Bell—as brave rebels who challenged a rigid, bigoted, staid religious establishment in radical and costly ways. But if that’s the case, why are these films so tedious and flat? Perhaps it’s because the supposedly groundbreaking “rethinking” these men advocate is nothing new—just boring old heresy in modern new clothes.... Continue Reading

The Scottish Reformation: Patrick Hamilton

In God’s mysterious but good providence, he used a condemned man’s words to bring another man to faith; and this man went on to teach others about the faith.

Written by Shane Lems | Monday, April 23, 2018

When he was just 23 years old he returned to Scotland and began to preach the gospel and rebuke Rome for her superstitions and corruptions. The Roman Catholic leaders, of course, quickly began to resent Hamilton and discussed how to get rid of him.  To make a long story short, Rome tricked him into visiting... Continue Reading

Tyndale Sued by Boy Who Didn’t Come Back from Heaven

Subject of retracted afterlife account demands damages for using his name.

Written by Kate Shellnutt | Wednesday, April 18, 2018

Malarkey has sued on the grounds of defamation, financial exploitation, and publicity placing a person in a false light, saying that Tyndale went forward with initially publishing and promoting the book knowing his opposition. He states that he did not write any part of the book or consent to the use of his name as... Continue Reading

10 Things You Should Know about Christian Hospitality

Hospitality is good for the giver because it puts our lives and hearts on display.

Written by Rosaria Butterfield | Wednesday, April 11, 2018

Every Christian is called to practice hospitality, but that does not mean that everyone practices it in the same way. We practice hospitality by sharing our resources and our needs, by serving as both host and guest, as Jesus did when he walked this earth. Hospitality works on the same principle as tithing. You are... Continue Reading
