Rediscovering Womanhood

So what is womanhood?

Written by Diane Woerner | Thursday, June 13, 2024

Women are not only given different capacities for grasping and interpreting various aspects of life but are often strongly gifted in other ways as well, men stand to benefit significantly when they are willing to receive counsel from the women in their lives. The tricky part is that it must remain counsel, not command. Few... Continue Reading

The Spirit of Liberty in “Paradise Lost”

Examining the role and beliefs of Satan.

Written by Shuyuan He | Thursday, June 13, 2024

The true aim of the angelic revolution, therefore, is not to achieve equality but to replace one hierarchy with another, and Satan himself admits: “orders and degrees/Jar not with liberty, but well consist” (V.792-793). He is truly the deft Deceiver. First he rouses the pride and private passions of the angels, by declaring them uncreated... Continue Reading

Does Biology Need “Queer Theory”?

Scientists are starting to speak out about the simple realities of “male” and “female.”

Written by John Stonestreet and Shane Morris | Wednesday, June 12, 2024

The fact that more honest scientists find it necessary to call out prestigious institutions for embracing unscientific gender nonsense says a lot about the assault on reality happening right now. Biology doesn’t need “queer theory.” It needs instead a worldview that grounds the givens of reality, givens that were put in place by God, instead... Continue Reading

Understanding the Metamodern Mood

Metamodernism values mood and affect (how I’m feeling/what I’m resonating with) more than rigid logic.

Written by Brett McCracken | Wednesday, June 12, 2024

Metamodern people have seen the unsustainability of postmodern deconstruction, and they desire construction. They want to believe problems can be solved and progress can be made. Even as they’re suspicious of absolute truth in theory, their existential reality leads them to desire it. After all, to construct anything, one must have foundations.   Why, when we...

Illusion vs. Reality

States are rejecting the Biden administration’s redefinition of sex, and Christians should support them.

Written by Jonathan Butcher | Wednesday, June 12, 2024

The Biden administration is challenging God’s created design, and God did not award the state normative authority. He allows civil powers to rule, even uses them for His purposes, but He does not grant them the right to overturn His Word.   “Sex” is getting a makeover. President Joe Biden’s administration has approved a new... Continue Reading

The Church’s Independence Clarified

The church’s independence is negative, not positive. That independence means freedom from undue command or interference by others, not power over them.

Written by Tom Hervey | Monday, June 10, 2024

The church’s independence is inferred from the nature of its early operations, its instructions from Christ and the apostles, and from its unique nature as God’s chosen people on Earth. At no point did Christ or his disciples ever say anything to the effect of ‘and when you select elders to rule your churches, remember... Continue Reading

Why Teachers are Fleeing Public Schools

The conflict between the bureaucratic, managerial priorities of school administrators and the moral ideals of teachers has characterized my seventeen-year teaching career.

Written by Jeremy Noonan | Sunday, June 9, 2024

Public schools have betrayed public trust by compromising academic and ethical standards to increase graduation rates, all while concealing from parents how little students are actually learning. These compromises not only affect academic achievement, but they also inculcate immoral habits in the next generation of citizens.   In 2007 I turned down a high-paying job... Continue Reading

Jimmy Fallon and Your Next Pastoral Call

You never know who’s watching.

Written by J. V. Fesko | Thursday, June 6, 2024

People judge books by their cover all the time, whether it’s fair or not. And, people are always making evaluations all the time about the people around them. What type of an impression will you make? In the end, your desire should be to make a good impression, not because you’re looking to promote yourself... Continue Reading

The Lifestyle Ratchet Is Hard to Avoid

Changes in the culture make opting out of lifestyle upgrades difficult to pull off.

Written by Aaron M. Renn | Thursday, June 6, 2024

Economic, technological, and social changes affect the availability and norms of society in ways that make it difficult to avoid adapting to them. I want to dial in on cultural and social expectations. Because these can put pressure on people to upgrade their lifestyles in ways that might be possible to resist, but which are difficult... Continue Reading

Priestesses and Goddesses in the Church?

What gender language “monitoring” at the United Methodist General Conference reveals.

Written by Colin J. Smothers | Thursday, June 6, 2024

The impulse to downplay male-female difference and treat men and women interchangeably against God’s clear revelation—in the home, in the church, in marriage, and in society—is the same impulse that attempts to approach God on one’s own terms, making God in one’s own interchangeable image. This is the definition of idolatry, the opposite of Christianity.   Headlines... Continue Reading
