How I Appeared to Plagiarize C. S. Lewis, and What Pascal Never Said

This is all a great reminder for me and for all of us to go to primary sources when quoting someone, and not rely on secondary source.

Written by Randy Alcorn | Saturday, January 5, 2019

I think Lewis would agree with the sentiment of the quote. I trust he wouldn’t have wanted someone else to put those words in his mouth, but I’m sure he’ll not hold it against me when I meet him! Now, there are in fact many quotations online that are falsely attributed to various people. The most... Continue Reading

A Tale of Two Paintings

Whoever gets the son, gets everything.

Written by Mark Loughridge | Friday, October 26, 2018

One day a young man came to the door. He said, “Sir, you don’t know me, but your son gave his life for me. I know I’m not a great artist, but I painted this for you.” The father opened the package. The portrait, although not brilliant, captured the personality of his son perfectly. He hung... Continue Reading

50 Good Mental Health Habits

Mentally healthy people make small, daily choices that contribute to their mental health.

Written by Brad Hambrick | Wednesday, May 16, 2018

Making the choices below won’t guarantee that you won’t experience seasons of depression, anxiety, or other forms of mental unrest. But the kind of choices listed below, if made before-during-after a time period of mental unrest, will still make a significant impact on your quality of life.   Good physical health does not happen by accident....

7 Interview Questions That Determine Emotional Intelligence

Selecting informative interview questions can be a key factor in finding the right employees

Written by Carolyn Sun | Saturday, March 19, 2016

It takes a while for people to build relationships — and being able to do so is a sign of solid emotional intelligence, Alvarez says. “[A lasting friendship] tells you that relationships and caring about people are important to the person.”     Determining who you hire for a job plays a big part in...

The Body Politic is Queer

If our culture continues to "evolve," it will one day implode. May faithful believers be there when that happens.

Written by Peter Jones | Tuesday, June 30, 2015

Hopefully, places like City Church in San Francisco, who have recently embraced same sex marriage, will realize the full implications of that decision before queerness starts to define their entire belief system. In some ways, apostate Oneist churches are showing the way for the culture. If the body of Christ is queer, so will be... Continue Reading

Why You Should Care About the Hobby Lobby Case—And Be Alarmed

By what logic is the failure to provide “preventive care” by a private company the imposition of religious belief?

Written by Kevin DeYoung | Wednesday, January 9, 2013

Our government not only allows for abortion, and celebrates abortion rights, and wants women to have unfettered access to abortion on demand, it now requires other Americans to pay for abortion-inducing drugs or face crippling fines. It is not an endorsement of any political party to conclude that this policy is morally degenerate. The facts... Continue Reading

Case Dismissed on Adult Stem Research

President Obama’s expansion of embryonic stem cell research to stand

Written by Emily Belz, WNS | Wednesday, January 9, 2013

The new National Institute of Health (NIH) guidelines under President Obama said a federal researcher could not be involved in the decision to destroy the embryo, but could use that embryo for research once destroyed. In other words, private funds would need to destroy the embryos but then federal funds could research those destroyed embryos.... Continue Reading

Christians Should Not Simply Dismiss Scientists Without Considering Their Claims

A Summary of Douglas Moo's "Biblical Theology and Creation Care" Session

Written by Jared Moore | Wednesday, January 9, 2013

At the recent national Evangelical Theological Society (ETS) conference in November 2012 in Milwaukee, WI, Douglas Moo spoke in the second plenary session on “Biblical Theology and Creation Care.” I appreciated Moo’s emphasis on all truth being God’s truth. I have possibly been too dismissive of Scientists in the past. I agree with Moo that... Continue Reading
