Boyfriends Do Not Get Husband Privileges Period.
He’s your boyfriend. That’s it.
As your boyfriend he has potential to be your husband, but it’s not until he has reached that potential and has the capability to provide for you, make you his #1 privilege, create a home with you, and love you till “death do you part,” does he earn the husband privileges of your forever affection,...

What Jordan Peterson Can Teach the Church About Men and Meaning
Our spiritual needs are not limited to salvation—sometimes a thoughtful unbeliever can have a better grasp of those needs than most Christians do.
Peterson’s message is not sufficient to rescue anyone–including him–from God’s righteous judgment. But it has proven a strikingly effective antidote to the spiritual chaos men face in today’s world. The church should take notes, even as we pray Peterson follows the meaning he preaches to its true source. I recently wrote something on Facebook... Continue Reading
Letter from Scotland 1 – The Church of Scotland – the Final Nail?
The Church of Scotland announced that 29 of its presbyteries were in favour of ministers and deacons conducting the ceremonies of same sex couples should they so wish.
I remember when John Chalmers, clerk of the General Assembly stated: “We had a debate which made very clear that we were not interfering with our theological definition of marriage and were not going to the place where ministers or deacons could themselves conducting same sex marriages.”. He lied. Plain and simple. He knew that... Continue Reading
How Feminism Got Hijacked
The movement that once declared “I am woman, hear me roar” can no longer define what a woman is. What happened?
Returning the cause to the people for whom it was created is the only way to save it, and to stop the many discriminations that girls and women still face….First, we have to honor the actual meaning of words, like “woman.” We have to insist that those meanings are important. We have to go back,... Continue Reading
Baylor University Charters LGBTQ Group
There is no slippery slope from “safe place” to “no place for dissent.” The latter is simply an inevitable consequence of the former.
In the same month that Baylor announced the chartering of its LGBT group, Notre Dame announced the launch of a pro-LGBT alumni group. Anyone interested in how safe space thinking can develop, and how it can be used to disembowel an institution’s own religious commitments and marginalize those who actually adhere to those commitments, should...

Old Books & Present Problems
Our present Western culture has not abandoned morality. It has changed morality.
I think it is about time we pick up an old book called the Bible. I have no doubt that old Book will give us the perspective we desperately need. C. S. Lewis once wrote an essay to a very old book wherein he commended the practice of reading old books. He, as a... Continue Reading
Social Media: A Downgrade of Culture
To stay relevant on social media, you must sink to its ethos, or you will be ignored; or worse, the gatekeepers will banish you.
Social media is a form of culture which takes all the negatives of popular culture and heightens them. Even pop culture is too substantial and must be broken down into smaller bites on social media. If a post does not capture our attention in mere seconds, without user engagement, it will die a quick death... Continue Reading
Enlightening Joe Scaimbra, (and the RCA, CRC, and UCC at the same time)
I was somewhat shocked. I was shocked that he was shocked at this behaviour by RC priests. Let me explain.
Generally, from then to now, Protestants resist concurrence with this, and when confronted with undeniable evidence, attempt to moderate it. Protestants read this article and think to themselves that I have an anger problem, or that I was abused and have a grudge or something. I don’t, and have no personal sexual history of abuse...

A Friendly Response to David French On CRT
If you firebomb a particular term like “woke” or “CRT,” scholars will simply swap out the offending term and continue promoting the same bad ideas under a new heading.
If Christians come to view other Christians as oppressors based solely on their ethnicity or gender, if we exalt lived experience over the Bible, if we see oppression rather than sin as our fundamental problem, and if we see activism rather than Jesus as the fundamental solution, we’ll have deeply undermined this good news. God... Continue Reading
In Defense of the Gender Binary
Fundamental, traditional assumptions about sex, gender, and marriage are being reinvisioned.
We are, it seems, losing our grip on what it means to be human. In an age where all aspects, once cherished and considered sacred, fundamental to our humanity are fuzzy shadows of our parent’s outdated ideas, we stand to lose something central to human flourishing. We are now seeing seismic shifts in perception about... Continue Reading
