Montgomery Pastor Admits to Having AIDS, Sleeping With Church Members

Juan Demetrius McFarland admitted to his congregation that he has AIDS and has slept with church members

Written by Tametria Conner, WSFA 12 News | Saturday, October 11, 2014

Deacon Williams says he’s been a member of the church for 70 years, and this is the biggest scandal the church has ever experienced. “He confessed to the entire membership and then to the City of Montgomery, because as soon as he got done confessing, it went all over Montgomery anyway,” Williams said. “So it’s...

They Are Coming for Your Children

Teacup totalitarians target Connecticut home-schoolers

Written by Kevin D. Williamson | Friday, October 10, 2014

Professor West of Georgetown is scandalized that parents “have virtually unfettered authority to decide what subjects to teach, what curriculum materials to use,” etc., and, naturally, worries that this will result in parents who teach “from nothing but the Bible.” (Question: What is the opposite of “unfettered”?) She is particularly offended that in some states,... Continue Reading

The Mercy of Sickness before Death

What cancer patients need more than anything is to take responsibility for their disease

Written by D.G. Myers | Thursday, October 9, 2014

How could it possibly be merciful of God to reduce you to the hyperawareness, every second of your waking life, that death is relentlessly approaching? Even if it is a knowledge that most other men and women do not have, regardless of what they may like to say, is it knowledge worth having?   Just... Continue Reading

Failure is an Option

Spent and be spent: grandson travels to Liberia to celebrate his grandparents 40 years of faithful mission service

Written by Rob Workman | Thursday, October 9, 2014

My visit to Bahn was painfully brief, that was the price paid to the rain. Forty years of imagination took form that afternoon as I met the people of the mission, including Daddy Wonti, who was my grandfather’s closest friend in Liberia. Together we visited my grandfather’s grave – which had been carefully maintained and... Continue Reading

“For His Good Purpose”

American pastor Saeed Abedini pens a letter to his daughter from an Iranian prison

Written by Jamie Dean | Tuesday, October 7, 2014

God is in control of the whole world and everything that is happening in it is for His good purpose, for His glory, and will be worked out for our good (Romans 8:28). Jesus allows me to be kept here for His glory. He is doing something inside each of us and also outside in... Continue Reading

Jason Stellman’s Unmitigated Disaster

A response to Stellman’s comments after 2 years in Roman Catholicism

Written by James White | Monday, October 6, 2014

Of course—how else could it be? Apostasy has consequences. You abandon your vows, deny the gospel of grace, embrace the Papal system and promote it by your speeches and writings, and think you will be welcome in the church you almost single-handedly crippled? Your very presence would be divisive, troubling, and distracting even if you... Continue Reading

Faith on Earth — The Urgent Mission of Theological Education

It would be easy to lose heart. Easy, but wrong . . . even unfaithful

Written by Albert Mohler | Sunday, October 5, 2014

This is the sermon preached by R. Albert Mohler, Jr., President and Joseph Emerson Brown Professor of Christian Theology at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, on the occasion of the inauguration of Ligon Duncan as Chancellor of Reformed Theological Seminary.

Treasures of Darkness

A testimony of God’s hope was being told to a hospital of people who daily dealt with death

Written by Miriam Gaitier | Sunday, October 5, 2014

Joyce Jackson and her husband, Bert, were missionaries to Cuba for years. They had to leave when Castro took over. They returned to the states and both worked at Granada Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Coral Gables, Florida. They were mighty servants for the Lord and are with him for all eternity!   “I will give...

The Many, Many, Many Things You Should Say “No” To At Work

Forget having it all. Newbrand analytics ceo Kristin Muhlner is having none of it. Look at all the things she says no to, and get inspired.

Written by David Zax | Sunday, October 5, 2014

“I say no to a lot of philanthropic activities. I do think they’re incredibly important and I appreciate the time people invest in it, but for me personally, unless it’s a cause I’m deeply committed to, I generally say no. It takes away from me doing the specific essential things in my life. I also... Continue Reading

Sabbath Rest

Jesus Christ gives the rest that neither Moses nor Joshua could provide

Written by Sinclair Ferguson | Sunday, October 5, 2014

But one may ask: “How does this impact my Sundays as a Christian?” This view of the Sabbath should help us regulate our weeks. Sunday is “Father’s Day,” and we have an appointment to meet Him. The child who asks “How short can the meeting be?” has a dysfunctional relationship problem — not an intellectual,... Continue Reading
