A new national study shows that charitable donors often pay far less attention to how much charities spend on overhead, administration, and fundraising than do charities and charity watchdog organizations.  The charitable sector overall has a reputation problem when it comes to overhead spending, but most donors have no idea what their favorite non-profit organization...

Thus, the result of two-kingdom theology is that Religion (Christianity) is personal, restricted to the heart, and the rules for the body politic must not be determined by the Bible.  In America all religions are equal, and therefore all religions are equally irrelevant in the public square.  Religion is only useful in so far as...

More than racial barriers, there are cultural, political, and religious barriers that stand between neighbors of different denominations, religions, and colors. Christians will be ill-equipped to deal with these barriers and exhibit the righteousness of Christ on an individual and corporate level if they think that confessing the historical racial sins of their church or...

This will effectively equip them to work in crucial culture-shaping institutions, such as business, education, the media, government, and the church, in order to serve the common good.”   I recently...

One purpose of this series on Race in America and the American Church is to challenge the commonly held belief that racism, primarily white racism, is at the heart of racial tension in America today and the primary cause of many of the problems that minorities face. And to suggest that a more significant reason... Continue Reading

Many people, including those of reformed persuasion, too quickly eschew subjective grace as smacking of subjectivism. That is a grievous error that must be avoided and corrected. Subjective grace and subjectivism are not the same thing. Subjective grace is not opposed to objective grace, but rather it is the means whereby a sinner believes in... Continue Reading

I was deeply troubled to hear of your position on abortion. You have pledged to give full support to abortion. Indeed your position on abortion seems to be one of celebration. In an interview on Texas Public radio you stated: “I support Roe v. Wade 100%, and it’s the law of the land, we just celebrated the... Continue Reading
