An Open Letter With A Broken Heart to My Beloved Church

After close to 8 years as member of this church, I began seeing changes in our preaching and worship that were detracting from the message of God's free grace.

Written by Anonymous | Monday, August 15, 2022

[Editor’s Note: This is a letter from a member to her church explaining the reasons she left a church she loved after being a member for eight years. We are publishing the letter anonymously to avoid publicly impugning anyone’s integrity and to allow the content of the letter to be read on its merits.] I... Continue Reading

Kingdom Race Theology: Is This God’s Plan or Something Else?

Dangerous definitions serve as the foundation for KRT.

Written by Virgil Walker | Monday, August 15, 2022

The ideas that serve as the foundation of Kingdom Race Theology are dangerous and destructive. When paired with the challenges evident within the SBC, this work will take Southern Baptists in a dangerously leftward direction. KRT lacks biblical definitions of anthropology. It applies partiality to ethnic hatred—assuming that only whites (the group with power) can express... Continue Reading

Don’t Sacrifice Your Children

The degeneracy of public education is manifest.

Written by Paul Liberati | Saturday, August 13, 2022

To all the Christian parents who still have your kids drinking from the filthy waters of public education, you also need to repent. Stop sending your children to Baal. Stop sending your children to Caesar. Go and get your kids and give them the education they deserve. Christian children have a right to a Christian... Continue Reading

As a White Christian, I’m Guilty of White Privilege: It’s Just Not What You Think

For Christians privilege isn’t necessarily a status in life; it’s a blessing related to some of God’s precious gifts to us, and such gifts are given universally regardless of race.

Written by Helen Louise Herndon | Friday, August 12, 2022

For me, class, family, opportunity, or wealth did not bestow upon me “White Privilege.”  No, my “White privilege” came as a gift and blessing from God, my heavenly Father, whose guidance I followed throughout life.  I wear my “White Privilege” as a badge of honor!   “White Privilege,” a negative accusation against White Americans, is among...

The Biblical Genius of PCA GA 49’s Overture 15

Perhaps the most talked-about item before and after the 2022 PCA General Assembly was Overture 15 dealing with an important qualification for ordination for church officers.

Written by Zachary Groff | Wednesday, August 10, 2022

To frame the issue as a question, does God’s Word warrant the inclusion of a paragraph in our BCO that disqualifies from ministry (as Deacons or Elders) “men who describe themselves as homosexual?” Having wrestled with this question, I believe that the answer is yes. Indeed, I am more and more convinced of the biblical... Continue Reading

Battle over “Wokeness” at Christian Colleges Isn’t Just about Politics, It’s about Dollars

The latest battle in Christian higher education isn't centered on theological issues, but rather on politics.

Written by David Jesse | Tuesday, August 9, 2022

Moving off—or being perceived as moving off—from sufficiently conservative viewpoints is a major gamble with poor odds of success. The inverse is also true—the more conservative a religious-based college is, the better its odds are of not just surviving, but flourishing.   For decades, Hillsdale College and Grove City College mirrored each other. Fiercely independent, neither takes... Continue Reading

Mutilating Our Bodies

Minor boys and girls are socially brainwashed into making catastrophic, self-harming decisions.

Written by Bethel McGrew | Tuesday, August 9, 2022

Vulnerable, disturbed individuals of all ages [are] hastily ushered into procedures that are nothing short of medical malpractice. Justice demands a reckoning in the form of penalties and strictures, for their sakes and for the sakes of others like them who may yet be saved from this Hippocratic Oath-breaking.    There are many memorable moments...

Yes, Intrinsic Human Value Is a Christian Idea, but Do You Really Want to Argue Against It?

The scientific truth is that the unborn is a living, growing, developing, very young human being. Abortion intentionally kills that human being.

Written by Amy K. Hall | Saturday, August 6, 2022

This is what pro-lifers do. They usually do not make religious arguments when making their case publicly. Instead, they reason from widely-accepted moral/philosophical principles (e.g., murder should be illegal and every human being should have equal protection under the law) and scientific principles (e.g., a human being is the same kind of being from conception...

Today’s Kids Despise Authority Thanks to a Disastrous Duo: Lockdowns And CRT

The corrosive effects of lockdowns and the anti-racism education regime best explain a generation of students who challenge authority.

Written by Casey Chalk | Friday, August 5, 2022

Let there be no doubt: It is the corrosive effects of lockdowns and the anti-racism education regime that best explain a generation of American students who oscillate between laziness and violent activism. Kids lost out on more than a year, and sometimes multiple years, of essential socialization and time in the classroom. When they were... Continue Reading

U.S. House Officially Abandons Support for Traditional Marriage

The House voted to pass the Respect for Marriage Act (RFMA), a bill that repeals the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and provides statutory authority for same-sex marriages.

Written by Joe Carter | Wednesday, August 3, 2022

The church must commit to speaking the truth of the gospel and how it applies to this issue. Specifically, we need to make it clear—especially to our neighbors in the pews beside us—that we cannot love our neighbor and tolerate unrepentant rebellion against God.   The Story The U.S. House—including 47 House Republicans—voted to codify...
