Where is the Good News? An Honest Look at the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Community

The journey to equality for blacks in America has a long and treacherous history.

Written by Virgil Walker | Wednesday, July 12, 2023

Did the Civil Rights Movement fail the black community? Again, that’s a complicated question, but the truth is it was never designed to succeed in such a monumental task. By contrast, the gospel never fails, and should be central to our believing, our living.   Some have questioned if evangelicals—especially white evangelicals—did anything to aid... Continue Reading

The Rabbit Hole of Wokeness & Merriam-Webster

The dictionary has added a second definition for the word "female": "having a gender identity that is the opposite of male."

Written by Jeffrey Stivason | Wednesday, July 12, 2023

The Cambridge Dictionary and Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary are not the standard…their authority is not final. But there is a book which is the final authority. It’s God’s book, the Bible.   Following the fall of the Cambridge Dictionary, the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary has slipped from the same cultural precipice only to dashed on the blunt...

Why Are So Many of Our Youth Identifying as LGBTQ+?

Many in the Gen Z and alpha generation who currently find their value, meaning, and identity in an LGBTQ+ label will, in God’s good timing, find Christ alone to be their all-in-all.

Written by Mark Sanders | Monday, July 10, 2023

In the latest Gallup poll for 2022, only 2.7% of baby boomers and 3.3% of Gen Xers identified as LGBTQ+ versus 11.2% of millennials and 19.7% of Gen Z. Along with that, while there was only a slight increase in the total percentage of Americans identifying as LGBTQ+ from 2012–2020, that number showed a marked... Continue Reading

The Meaning of “Sabbath” in Colossians 2:16

The reference in Colossians 2:16 is not to the 4th Commandment, but rather to the ceremonial feasts and festivals of the Hebrew calendar.

Written by Jacob Reaume | Thursday, July 6, 2023

The overall teaching of the Bible is that the 10 Commandments as unit, including the 4th Commandment, still stand.  The context of Colossians 2:16 is Paul speaking of Jewish ceremonies.  Those ceremonies can rightly be called “sabbaths.”  Rightly understood, “sabbath” of Colossians 2:16 refers to the various ceremonies.  Paul also mandates that offerings be received in multiple churches specifically...

The Trans Tide Is Turning

Gender-transition reckoning looms on the horizon.

Written by Simon Kennedy | Wednesday, July 5, 2023

History will look back with horror on all the otherwise rational, talented, intelligent people who either supported this medical madness or stood by and did nothing. We must hope and pray that more doctors take a similar stand and that governments come to their senses to legislate “gender-affirmative” medical care out of existence.   In... Continue Reading

The Masculinity Vacuum

The battle of masculinity will be won by the men whose core convictions are strongest.

Written by T.S. Weidler | Monday, July 3, 2023

Christian men, of all the men in the world, ought to be the most joyful, bold, courageous, and serious. Christian men believe in a resurrection, so they laugh at fear. They have no fear of man, no fear of death, and eternal hope in the making of earth as it is in heaven. This provides... Continue Reading

Children Need Their Parents, Not Big Government

“I homeschool because I have seen the village and I don’t want it raising my child.”

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Sunday, July 2, 2023

Depending upon the State to instil these virtues of morality, self-reliance, personal responsibility, and respect for others is a pipe dream. Sure, not every parent will be an ideal role model in these areas, but I would far rather trust them to ‘train up a child in the way he should go’ than rely on government bureaucrats and...

Toe the Government Line or Lose Your Kids

A proposed California bill that would make refusal to affirm a child’s transgender confusion an offense for which a parent could lose custody.

Written by Carl R. Trueman | Thursday, June 29, 2023

Despite this latest lunacy, I remain confident that the trans madness will come to an end, though sadly not without significant human carnage. Those responsible for this child abuse—the doctors, the clinics, and the pharmaceutical companies—are going to be sued and will pay a heavy price. This is America, folks: The establishment’s ideology is ultimately... Continue Reading

There Are Plenty of Good Fish in the Sea

A lot of single Christian men seem to believe it’s hard to find someone to marry.

Written by Aaron M. Renn | Wednesday, June 28, 2023

The reality is that there are plenty of high quality single Christian women, and men, in America. The problems of frustrated singleness are real and shouldn’t be discounted. The technological and cultural problems of America when it comes to marriage are likewise real. But an absolute shortage of high caliber potential marriage partners is not... Continue Reading

Don’t Be Silenced by Their Name-Calling and False Accusations of “Hate”

False accusations of "racism" or "hate" are oftentimes only used to silence those who are neither racist nor hateful. It’s only those who reject such labels that the false charge is designed to silence.

Written by Ben Davis | Wednesday, June 28, 2023

We are called to be faithful to the truth. The enemies of God hate the truth. And they would have us think that to speak the truth is a hateful or dangerous thing. They want us to fear their labels. They want us to fear being called bad names. But whenever the temptation arises, let... Continue Reading
