Diversity, Not Jesus, Saves Says Episcopal Presiding Bishop Schori
She concluded her sermon by stating that we are not justified by our faith but by our respect for diversity
Schori: Salvation comes not from being cleansed of our sins by the atoning sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, but through the divinization of humanity through the work of the human will. “We are here, among all the other creatures of God’s creation, to be transformed into the glory intended from the beginning. The Presiding... Continue Reading
Four Further Thoughts on the Complementarian Conversation
It seems to me the current conversation is mainly about two things: abuse and application.
Where have complementarian principles been abused? How are complementarian principles best applied? Those are fair questions. There are black and white issues, but just as many gray ones (which is why Danvers is thick on principles and thin on specifics). We should be able to talk about the applications without assuming that everyone to the... Continue Reading

What the pro-abortion movement fears most is that Americans will pause to consider what this trial really means.

His murder convictions have everything to do with the fact that the abortions... Continue Reading
Are Women More Open To Counseling Than Men?
Women are more open to counseling than men
Some men who hold a position of leadership think wrongly that it’s a sign of failure or weakness to appear to be in need of help. They feel that they are supposed to have the answers not need them. This is sad and inconsistent with the gospel. The poor in Spirit inherit the Kingdom, not... Continue Reading
Court Rules Against German Homeschool Family Seeking Asylum
The Justice Dept. is arguing that German law banning home schooling does not violate the family’s human rights.
Uwe said he was extremely disappointed that their petition to seek asylum was appealed by the Obama administration. “If we go back to Germany we know that we would be prosecuted and it is very likely the Social Services authorities would take our children from us,” he said. Uwe said German schools were teaching children... Continue Reading
In Praise of A (Former) Homeschooling Mom
She retires having changed three lives.
One thing instilled in our kids was a love of learning. I have heard more than one person say over the years they never picked up another book after college. Sonya never went to college but has picked up books ever since high-school. She modeled learning, both biblical and the “schoolish” type, to our three.... Continue Reading
