Young Earth or Old? The Battle Over the Authority of Scripture
Human thought is naturally anthropocentric rather than theocentric.
There is more than meets the eye when it comes to understanding the debate over the meaning of Genesis 1. The debate is taking place in the midst of a war which Satan’s offspring are waging against God by attacking His subjects (Eve’s offspring) with deceit to convince them that Scripture is not true and...

The Trans Teen Industrial Complex
The Indiana House gutted an informed consent bill that would have required public schools to allow parents to inspect educational material used to teach their kids about human sexuality and gender identity.
“Parents’ rights have been curtailed in indirect ways as well, as states, cities, and school districts increasingly promulgate new regulations or policies that prohibit schools from informing parents—unless the child consents—that the child is expressing a new gender identity at school. Schools also integrate gender ideology into anti-bullying programs and general school culture, making it... Continue Reading
Is Jordan Peterson the Champion We’ve Been Looking for?
Christians, it’s time to think a bit more deeply about the Jordan Peterson moment.
More often than not, too, the Christian intellectuals cannot line up fast enough to parrot the new hero and present mildly-baptized versions of his thought. Only, in the process, they end up carrying water for paganism, and bringing it right into the baptismal fonts of their sanctuaries. Christianity, and especially Christian social theory, suffers for... Continue Reading
Why Monday Is Your Most Productive Day Of The Week
Even if it doesn’t feel like it. Here’s how to make the most of it.
Mondays are prime for work because they feel like a fresh start, says productivity coach Deb Lee. “When you’ve had the weekend to take a break, relax and regroup, you come back to work fresher than when you walked out the door the previous Friday,” she says. “We tend to tackle our work week-by-week, which means...

I Have Forgotten How to Read
I thought I could keep on reading in the old way because my mind was formed in pre-internet days. I was wrong.
The deep reading that a novel demands doesn’t come easy and it was never “natural.” Our default state is, if anything, one of distractedness. The gaze shifts, the attention flits; we scour the environment for clues. (Otherwise, that predator in the shadows might eat us.) How primed are we for distraction? One famous study found...

Why Transgenderism Threatens Parental Rights
In a case that portends the future of parental rights, a judge in Ohio gives grandparents custody of a transgender teen.
For many Christian parents hearing about this latest victory for the transgender movement, it’s easy to feel appalled and frustrated and yet determine that it really has nothing to do with us. After all, we may think, own children are unlikely to want to choose transgender interventions, and their grandparents would side with them if... Continue Reading
Jordan Peterson, Jung, and Hope for the Faint-Hearted
A warning: Peterson’s fresh view of “faith” involves admiration of (at least) one dangerous thinker—Carl Jung, the famous Swiss psychologist.
Jordan Peterson seems to be a genuine seeker after truth, with an insatiable appetite to put the world together in a coherent worldview. Much of what he says is very “Christian friendly,” but his coherence breaks down when he finds inspiration in Carl Jung, one of the most powerful creators of today’s post-Christian, neo-pagan culture....

Race in America and the American Church
Part 8: The Complicity of the Church in Increasing Black Poverty and Racial Alienation
While the growth of the welfare and administrative state that chokes black opportunity has been pushed first and foremost by the political and theological liberal elite, Bible-believing churches must claim their share of the blame. While rightly striving to maintain historical Christian orthodoxy amidst the collapse of the Western church in Europe and much of... Continue Reading
False Friends and Dead Words
No one can fully predict the future of the English language, even those who—like the KJV translators—help shape that future.
Many words and phrases in the KJV are still in use but meant different things in seventeenth-century England—and yet what they now mean makes sufficient sense in context that most readers don’t notice the change. They don’t realize they need to look these words up. Unicorn may be one example. Amidst a list of other... Continue Reading
A White Guy’s Reflections on Black Panther
Black Panther is a movie about a superhero, but not just any superhero — a black superhero
“A movie has no power to ultimately change people’s hearts. Only Jesus can do that. But I believe it can serve to help the progress we must make toward racial unity. It can encourage the black community and educate other communities.” To be honest, I can’t remember going to a movie quite like Black... Continue Reading
