I Fought the Church, and the Church Won

It became clear to me that Sola Scriptura could not provide a way to speak meaningfully about the necessary distinction between orthodoxy and heresy

Written by Jason Stellman, Called to Communion | Wednesday, October 3, 2012

Who are the members of Called to Communion? We are Christians who love Jesus the Messiah, love the faith, love the Scriptures and love the Catholic Church. We are Catholics, but none of us was born or raised in the Catholic Church. We arrived in the Catholic Church in diverse ways but through a similar path involving spiritual formation within the Reformed tradition of confessional Protestantism.

Confidential Search Committee Report

Timothy: Too young! Methuselah: Too old . . . WAY too old!

Written by Staff | Tuesday, October 2, 2012

The pool of "executive search for church jokes" is pretty thin, but here's a good read. It's an oldie, but a goodie.....while circulated a lot, to our knowledge, the author is unknown.

‘The Boy They Couldn’t Kill’

Football star’s unborn son thrives after execution-style murder of mom

Written by Dave Andrusko, LifeSiteNews | Saturday, September 29, 2012

In 2001, I wrote the following first paragraph: “On January 22 – on the 28th anniversary of Roe v. Wade – North Carolina Superior Court Judge Charles Lamm sentenced 27-year-old Rae Carruth to a minimum of 18 years and 11 months in prison for his role in the execution-style murder of his pregnant girlfriend. Miraculously, doctors were able to save Cherica Adams’s baby.”

Doodling in the Sand

Brian McLaren Presides over Same-Sex Commitment Ceremony

Written by Carl Trueman | Friday, September 28, 2012

If that is the case, I think there are many Christians who could immediately relate to his circumstance. It is very difficult when one has a close friend or family member who is gay and who differs with what the Bible teaches about sexual norms.

St Louis Cardinal Manager Mike Matheny’s radical plan for youth baseball

The 'Matheny Manifesto' could be the catalyst to "reinvent youth baseball."

Written by Derrick Goold, Post-Dispatch | Wednesday, September 26, 2012

The role faith plays with the Warriors is clear from their name. It has Christian roots. Their logo is a shield with a cross on it. The team does not choose players based on religion and welcomes a multi-denominational roster. But Warriors coaches must make a spiritual commitment, officials said. "It would be dishonest to say that's not where this whole idea comes from," says Casey Cramer, a former NFL player and student at nearby Covenant Seminary.

Is Tim Tebow a Chauvinist?

Tim Tebow says he wants a wife with “a servant’s heart.” Does that make him a misogynist?

Written by Russell Moore | Tuesday, September 25, 2012

Husbands serve wives. Wives serve husbands. Children serve parents. Parents serve children. Pastors serve churches. Churches serve pastors. That concept might be demeaning in the world of Vogue, but it’s not in a new creation where “the leader is the one who serves” (Lk. 22:26).   Tim Tebow says he wants a wife with “a...

Reflections on our recently departed brother-in-the-Lord Bill Gresham

PCA Teaching Elder William B. Gresham, Jr. died on September 14, 2002

Written by Billy Joseph | Tuesday, September 25, 2012

In those early days of RUF in the state of Alabama there was one who did not fit anyone’s image of a campus minister. Bill Gresham.  Bill was equipped to be a campus minister – teaching, pastoring, preaching, faithful, caring.  But he did not fit anyone’s image of a campus minister. Many times as he...

Hearing reveals impact of clergy abuse

Southern Baptist evangelist sentenced to 10 years for video voyeurism

Written by Bob Allen, ABP | Monday, September 24, 2012

A graduate of Williams Baptist College and Mid-America Baptist Theological Seminary, Sam Nuckolls served on staff at several churches before entering fulltime itinerant ministry. LifeWay hired Nuckolls as a summer staffer to serve in the role of camp pastor for Centrifuge camps in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006. In 2007 his role changed to a contract position, where he served several weeks during the summer preaching at general assemblies and large gatherings. He served in that capacity through the summer of 2011.

His Truth is Marching On

Rousas John Rushdoony and the rise of Christian conservatives.

Written by Chris Smith | Monday, September 24, 2012

A final piece of Rushdoony’s emerging belief system fell into place when he discovered the ideas of Cornelius Van Til (1895–1987). A Calvinist theologian who rejected the modernism that brought Darwin and Enlightenment ideas into the Protestant mainstream, Van Til insisted that man cannot think independently of God, and to try to do so is evil.

Tim Keller’s Disappointing Comments on Homosexuality

Rev. Keller’s remarks do not appear to have been accidental or mistaken but represent settled conviction.

Written by Robert A. J. Gagnon | Sunday, September 23, 2012

What the Academy needs today is men who are fearless in proclaiming sin, righteousness, and the coming judgment in the context of the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ to desperate sinners like us. And these men should normally be those who are followers of Jesus Christ who work on campus; His slaves who can't help but be faithful in speaking of His holiness and mercy in their classrooms, faculty offices, faculty senate meetings, on the walkways from classroom building to classroom building, and so on.
