We miss these great men of God. But if the Lord should tarry, he will raise up many more like them. Our job is to remain faithful, just as they were.   Most Christians have just learned about the sudden passing of Voddie Baucham in America. I had seen him speak in Melbourne not all...

This conversation was the key to Lewis’s conversion. It provided a means to unite his mind and heart around the Gospel, to connect what he loved with what he saw as truth.    On September 19, 1931, three friends had a conversation on Addison’s Walk, a tree-lined path on the grounds of Magdalen (pronounced “Maudlin”)...

In one of those videos recorded two months before his death, Charlie was asked what he wanted most to be remembered for when he died. After pausing to think for a moment, he said, “For the courage that my faith (in Christ) gave me.” In the midst of the growing evil of our age, the... Continue Reading

Apologist Frank Turek presented the gospel in doctrinal detail, right down to penal substitutionary atonement. In His righteousness, the Father demanded an innocent and perfect sacrifice for sin, and the Father sent the Son to die for sinners on the cross, the perfect substitute.

I doubt the young man who killed Charlie Kirk was staying up late at night wading through Marcuse’s difficult philosophical works. But in many ways, Marcuse has won the culture.

Second, pastors should stay connected to people by utilizing healthy differentiation, family systems theory, and spiritual practices. Third, pastors must embrace a shared mission that emanates from the covenant with Abraham for the church to be... Continue Reading

We don’t know how to mourn with those who mourn. To acknowledge tragedy without filtering it through a partisan framework. To consider how we have lost our way—and if it’s possible to find our way back again.   On September 10, 2025, a family was destroyed when Charlie Kirk was shot and killed at Utah...

We cannot allow evil to draw us into folly. To do so would be to let one act of evil multiply into many. Instead, we must show that wisdom is possible—that the disciplined spirit can still build, and that Christ’s people will not be ruled by rage but by hope. The choice is plain: the...

What a scene it was to see these four girls all seek to be as close to their father as possible showing great affection for him, as he showed to each one and all equally. For the children of three church leaders to respond to their fathers so lovingly speaks volumes of their commitment as... Continue Reading
