On Race and Crime, a Counterfactual Narrative
The notion that blacks are at elevated risk for “existing while black” is true—but not because whites are killing them.
Millions of blacks are walking around believing that whites hate and fear them so much that blacks are at daily risk of their lives from that hatred. This belief is the rankest fiction. Yet it is embraced and amplified by almost every mainstream American institution. The shooting of a teen-ager in Kansas City, Missouri,... Continue Reading
Common Good Men
The Lost Authority of Godly Men
Churchgoing exposes men to messages telling them the family was created by God—it is not some evolutionary accident. Church tells men that they are accountable before God for how they treat their family….The bottom line is that Christians have a practical answer to resolving the war between men and women—one that has stood up to...

Collective Cowardice: The Key to the Transgender Movement’s Success
Once our leaders accepted the premises of the LGBT movement to appease the activists, they stepped out onto the slippery slope they had mocked us for warning about. But many of them are simply cowards—and so here we are.
It is depressing to consider that feminist activists and gay and lesbian writers have frequently been fiercer in opposing this ideology than many Christians, perhaps because they are more accustomed to being counter-cultural dissidents. I am not saying this fight is lost. Not by any means. But if ordinary people do not refuse to participate... Continue Reading
Collusion in Blatant Misogyny
Big corporations fund the transgender push to erase women.
That a man is now the public face of sports bras is not simply ridiculous. It is part of a concerted cultural erasure of women as a whole. Feminists, from J. K. Rowling to Kathleen Stock, have pointed this out, at great cost to their reputations and even at some personal risk to themselves. That... Continue Reading
The PCA’s Denominational Magazine Goes Political: A Rejoinder to David Cassidy’s “Prayer and Work in the Face of Violence” at By Faith Online
PCA ministers should not push political propaganda dressed up in Christian garb which is long on emotional rhetoric and at odds with the facts about the crimes which it purportedly wishes to solve.
This is the social justice gospel exposing itself openly, without modesty and without regard to how repulsive it is to the many other PCA members who believe in the spirituality of the church (Col. 3:1-3), the prudence of minding one’s own affairs rather than those of other communities (Prov. 26:17), and the propriety of an...

Reclaiming Power and Control
To abdicate our God-given charge to exercise power and control in his world is to open wide the doors for more and greater abuses.
Those who wish to live rightly in God’s world must not overcorrect by seeking to give up all power, control, authority, and gain. Instead, we recognize that though those qualities may be abused, they were given by God for our good and for the good of others in his world. We must pursue those goods... Continue Reading
Bruce Pardy: Agatha Christie Revisions are the Writing on the Wall
Literary Revisionism is No Accident
Christie is the bestselling novelist of all time. Which is precisely why her books are ideal for such treatment. Literature, along with other popular arts like music and movies, is called “culture” for a reason. It expresses narratives that tell societies who they are. In 2023, we are social justice nihilists, driven by cultural self-hate... Continue Reading
Unborn Children Deserve the Right to Trust Their Mother
According to a report from 2017, among women who chose to have prenatal screening and who then received a diagnosis of Down syndrome, the abortion rate was 67 percent in the U.S. (1995-2011).
I found out in the spring of 2022, when our baby was diagnosed prenatally as having Trisomy 18. The initial diagnosis from an ultrasound was confirmed by non-invasive prenatal testing. It was hard to hear that our child would be severely disabled if she were to live. It was even harder to hear she would... Continue Reading
America’s Imperial Ideology
The ambition is simple: to strengthen the Rainbow Reich and ensure that it attains global hegemony.
Today we are subjected to tremendous pressure to endorse transgender ideology, and we are cattle-prodded to affirm gay marriage. Some resist, because they are rooted in reality and recognize that men are men and women are women. But if we look around the public square, we see that the majority of those standing up against...

Parenting and the Digital Liturgies
The digital age is having a serious spiritual effect on us. How will it affect our households?
You and I are not going to be able to exhaustively know everything and everyone that our kids are encountering through digital tech. Even strong guardrails are not going to fully account for every minute with this technology. That needs to be accepted rather than protested. But there is encouraging news: The next generation of...
