Calvin Miller Has Died: In Memoriam and His “Letter to the Church”

Under his leadership, Westside (Omaha) grew from 10 members to over 2,500 when he left to join the faculty of Southwestern Seminary

Written by Ed Stetzer | Monday, August 20, 2012

Dr. Miller knew the importance of story as well. A wonderful wordsmith, he would use the element of story in such a way that cold facts and dry doctrine came to life in ways rarely seen. His poetry was an outpouring of his devotion to both his Savior and his sweetheart, Barbara Joyce.

Second Coming Christ Controversy, Part II: Christianity Today Writer Ken Smith – Deceptive Business Practices; With Child Porn Ties?

As a result of the investigation by the FTC, Zango was forced to pay a fine of $3 million.

Written by Katherine t. Phan, Christian Post | Monday, August 20, 2012

When this reporter returned the phone call to Smith, he sounded surprised to hear that this reporter actually wanted to interview him regarding the claims that he made on his blog about Christian organizations as well as his faith background. Smith agreed to an interview scheduled for the next day.

Second Coming Christ Controversy, Part II: Slings and Arrows

Co-Author of the Christianity Today investigation of the Second Coming Christ controversy responds to new attack from Christian Post

Written by Ken Smith | Monday, August 20, 2012

I hope it’s clear to neutral observers that this doesn’t really have much to do with whether David Jang’s community encouraged the belief that he was the Second Coming Christ

A message to WORLD readers on the David Barton controversy

“Let her and Falsehood grapple; who ever knew Truth put to the worse, in a free and open encounter?” - Milton

Written by Marvin Olasky, WNS | Monday, August 20, 2012

The most popular American history book at colleges, Howard Zinn’s leftist A People’s History of the United States, is full of inaccuracies, and folks on the left don’t seem to mind because they need fables to increase their faith.

Into exile: What happens to a professor who does everything right but has wrong ideas?

Woodberry quotes an 1888 missionary conference's declaration that the opium trade is "a standing reproach to Christianity"

Written by Marvin Olasky | Sunday, August 19, 2012

The University of Texas denied Woodberry tenure. He then applied to 108 other schools. No U.S. institution offered him tenure. One Christian college interviewed him and made a tentative offer, but it did not make a formal offer. No other school invited him for an in-person interview or made him a job offer.

Paul Ryan’s Catholicism and the Poor

Acts coerced by government, no matter how beneficial or well-intentioned, cannot be moral.

Written by Antony Davies and Kristina Antolin, WSJ | Saturday, August 18, 2012

The bishops dance with the devil when they invite government to use its coercive power on their behalf, and there's no clearer example than the Affordable Care Act. They happily joined their moral authority to the government's legal authority by supporting mandatory health insurance. They should not have been surprised when the government used its reinforced power to require Catholic institutions to pay for insurance plans that cover abortions and birth control.

The Family Research Center shooting and the vocation of a hero

“Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point, which means, at the point of highest reality"

Written by Joe Carter | Saturday, August 18, 2012

When I worked at FRC (2006-2008) I would have happily swapped jobs with almost any other employee—except for Leo. Having manned many a guard post while in the military, I couldn’t imagine having to do such a boring, repetitive, often-thankless job.

D. C Chief of Police: ‘He Did his job’

Security guard Leo Johnson stops shooter at Family Research Council headquarters

Written by J.C. Derrick, WorldOnline | Thursday, August 16, 2012

According to Jackie Bensen of NBC4 in Washington, authorities discovered two loaded 15-round magazines and Chick-fil-A promotional materials in the suspect's backpack. FRC President Tony Perkins has been an outspoken supporter of Chick-fil-A, which has been embroiled in a recent controversy with homosexual activists after Chick-fil-A president Dan Cathy publicly affirmed traditional marriage. Chick-fil-A has also financially supported FRC.

America’s First Atheist

Joel Barlow is significant as possibly America's first atheist.

Written by Daniel Silliman | Thursday, August 16, 2012

James Turner, in his book Without God, Without Creed: The Origins of Unbelief in America, suggests Barlow is a plausible candidate for America’s first atheist. There may, of course, have been an underground of unbelief in America in the late 1700s, but the evidence we have of the era’s skepticism indicates it was directed towards... Continue Reading

Amish Report Staggering Growth in Midwest

The Amish population is expected to exceed 1 million around 2050.

Written by Brandon Blackwell | Thursday, August 16, 2012

As the population grows, the Amish community and its neighbors begin to merge. In Middlefield, horse-drawn buggies are parked outside the local Wal-Mart.     Middlefield, Ohio (RNS) The Amish are one of the fastest-growing religious groups in North America, according to a new census by researchers at Ohio State University. The study, released July... Continue Reading
