Big Government and Big Tech are working to deny or conceal the truth in service of a new transgender orthodoxy. I’ve tried to sound the alarm about the real harms that would result, but the activists have a lot of corporate and political power on their side — as I was reminded recently when Amazon...

 Syntax doesn’t always settle-in on the first reading. I read Romans 46 times in a row (not in one day!) before I ever looked at a commentary. Why? I wanted the syntax ingrained in my consciousness before I looked elsewhere. Once I read the commentaries, it became obvious to me which ones had taken the... Continue Reading

Cultural traits such as family environment, transmitted values, and study habits have an enormous influence on academic outcomes. The radical-left educators believe that this is an injustice. They see their job as leveling cultural differences, grouping students into the categories of inborn identity, and equalizing outcomes.   Last year, the Wake County Public School System,...

The report regards the behavior as “unnatural” but does not apply that category to the desire: “It is an exchange of the natural use of sex for the unnatural. Homosexualism is the penalty for man’s apostacy [sic] from the true worship of God resulting in the depravity of those who engage in it.” In a... Continue Reading

Columbia is a microcosm for what is happening in the nation. America’s motto E pluribus unum speaks of unity arising out of diversity, of a shared national identity deeper than those identities that differentiate and divide her citizens.

Can one professing faith in Jesus hold a theological position or engage in activity which is inconsistent with Christian redemption? I believe Newton would say, “absolutely!” Christians often hold theological positions and engage in activity inconsistent with redemption. But the answer takes a darker turn when we ask whether or not a Christian can knowingly and willfully hold positions... Continue Reading

Many people have never experienced God in this way. They have never experienced the balance of fearing him and hearing him say, “Fear not,” and then receiving from him a commission to work that wakes them up every day with eternal purpose, inspires them to be excellent in all they do, and sends them with...

Our calling is not to hoard good deeds, not to pile them up and count them out like a miser his money. Rather, it’s to do good with liberality and generosity, and to leave the accounting to God, for he is the one who promises to remember every word, every deed, every prayer, every gift....
