Evangelical Pastor No Longer Giving Inaugural Prayer Because of Sermon on Homosexuality

Written by Russell Moore | Friday, January 11, 2013

When it is now impossible for one who holds to the catholic Christian view of marriage and the gospel to pray at a public event, we now have a de facto established state church.  Just as the pre-constitutional Anglican and congregational churches required a license to preach in order to exclude Baptists, the new state...

Pastor Disinvited from Giving Inaugural Prayer Because of Sermon on Homosexuality

Written by Joe Carter, TGC | Friday, January 11, 2013

We shouldn’t be so naive as to believe that if we focus exclusively on serving the homeless and fighting to end human trafficking that they world will stop hating us. We must both serve our neighbor and tell them the truth about the human condition, that the wages of unrepentant sin is death. No one... Continue Reading

Humbled to Serve as the President of RTS-Charlotte

Training not just pastors, and not just scholars, but pastor-scholars who love God with their heart and mind

Written by Michael Kruger | Friday, January 11, 2013

But at the heart of RTS-Charlotte, and one that is most exciting to me, is the commitment to a very simple principle, that we can love God with both our hearts and our minds. Many have the belief (even if it is not stated) that when it comes to Christian ministry we have to choose... Continue Reading

Waiting on the Narcissist

Finding significance not in self but in Christ

Written by Timothy Hammons | Friday, January 11, 2013

We do need a plan ready for the countless people who come crashing down with the realities that their false worlds truly are nothing but from the land of make believe.

Piper Denounces Prosperity Preachers, Playful Worship in Last Sermon

John Piper condemns prosperity preachers for enticing worshippers into a faith that's not real Christianity

Written by Lilliam Kwon, Christian Post Reporter | Sunday, January 6, 2013

…knowing Christ and having eternal life with Christ “is better than all the worldly wealth and prosperity and health that there is.” We commend our life in ministry by afflictions, … calamities … It means that Christ is real to us, more precious than sleep, health, money, life … Wouldn’t you want a Christ that...
