John MacArthur Answers His Critics
Error is still error, even if there are true believers who embrace and espouse it.
So of course I would agree that there are true believers within the charismatic movement. But that does not negate the seriousness of the corruption.

Error is still error, even if there are true believers... Continue Reading
ENDA and the Christian Response
ENDA poses great problems for religious practice—particularly for business owners who are Christians.
Though the bill makes a narrow exemption for explicitly religious institutions and employers, ENDA undermines the Constitution’s guarantee of religious freedom by preventing many employers with religious objections to homosexual and transgender behavior from conducting their businesses in accordance with the dictates of their faith. This week the Senate is poised to take up... Continue Reading
Fox News’ Highly Reluctant Jesus Follower
Of all people surprised that I became an evangelical Christian, I'm the most surprised.
I tried to write off the experience as misfiring synapses, but I couldn’t shake it. When I returned to New York a few days later, I was lost. I suddenly felt God everywhere and it was terrifying. More important, it was unwelcome. It felt like an invasion. I started to fear I was going crazy.... Continue Reading
Single Mothers With Family Values
Single mothers choosing to break mold of government dependence.
The left has recast marriage not as a lifelong contract, but as a civil right, a choice, one of many paths to empowerment. An old-fashioned covenant that binds two people in mutual submission sits uneasily in a secular ideology that holds personal autonomy as the highest good. WHEN Jennifer Maggio was in her early...

Birth Control Mandate Is Unlawful, Federal Court Rules
The court did not rule, as other courts have in similar cases, that for-profit companies are protected by the Free Exercise clause
The American Center for Law and Justice, which represents the Gilardis, view the decision as a partial victory, Senior Counsel Frank Manion explained to The Christian Post in a Friday interview, because the Court found that the birth control mandate violates an individual’s religious freedom, but would not say that it violates a business’s religious...

The Christian Traveller
How then should we travel as Christians to communicate our personal identity and spiritual allegiance?
“By what means should I, as a Christian traveller, communicate my personal identity and spiritual allegiance?” I could…do some airport-lounge preaching….The age-old device of carrying a Bible larger than a cabin bag is trickier in these days of electronic reading…The prominent wearing of crosses is not my thing, neither would I normally go down the...

One Vital Lesson From Doug Phillips’ Resignation
Reflections on the danger we all face concerning moral failure.
I must admit, over recent years, I did worry at times that Phillips’ leadership and some parts of his wider homeschool/full quiver/patriarchy movement were coming across as a bit arrogant and overly self-confident. Although I valued so much of what they were promoting, I’d grown increasingly uneasy at the somewhat condemning and condescending tone towards... Continue Reading
Capitalism’s Theologian
The renowned Michael Novak, on his journey to conservatism.
“There were always wars in human history—new ones, generation after generation—because wars spring from the human heart itself,” Novak writes, citing St. Augustine. “Peace never lasts.” He eventually turned against “progressivism” because it “overrates human innocence and goodness and underrates human weakness and preference for getting things for free rather than as a result of...
