PCA Minister, Don Keith Clements, Called Home to Glory

Don Keith Clements, 85, of Blacksburg, VA, was called home to glory on Wednesday, June 5, 2024.

Written by Staff | Friday, June 7, 2024

Don was a committed churchman. As an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), he served pastored churches in Savannah, GA, Virginis Beach, VA, Blacksburg, VA, and Narrows, VA. In 2003 he started Metokos Ministries, which focused on consulting full time with small churches on revitalization and officer training. He served a number... Continue Reading

Statement From Philadelphia Presbytery on Liam Goligher

Liam Goligher was immediately suspended from the sacraments and his office for his contumacy

Written by ByFaith Staff | Thursday, June 6, 2024

Because of TE Goligher’s refusal to comply with the lawful proceedings of this court in defiance of BCO 32-6b, these proceedings are hindered and continuing without due repentance from TE Goligher for his contumacy poses a serious risk to the wellbeing of witnesses and victims named in these proceedings. In accord with BCO 34-4, TE Liam...

Adam Poisoned Me

Like Gesner, we will suffer the effects of Adam’s poison for the rest of our lives – but it will no longer define us forever.

Written by Stephen Steele | Tuesday, May 28, 2024

For a long time Genser didn’t suspect that her poisoning came from the sculpture of Adam. And we too don’t suspect that our sin comes built-in. We blame society, education, our up-bringing. We believe the myth that – to quote a recent statement from the Pope – people are “fundamentally good”. And because of that... Continue Reading

Women in Church History: Anne Bradstreet (1612–1672) America’s First Published Poet

Anne’s writing shows evidence of a hungering, yearning faith that’s well acquainted with struggle, yet looks beyond itself for its strength.

Written by The Reformed Church in the United States | Monday, May 27, 2024

Anne’s biblically saturated mind is ubiquitous in her writing, as is her longing for her children’s salvation and maturity in Christ. As Anne appeared to deal with frequent illness, seeking God’s face in suffering is a constant refrain in the letter and in many of her poems. It’s not that Anne assumes every sickness or affliction... Continue Reading

Honorable Conduct in the “Negative World”

Crenshaw has decided that America in 2024 is analogous to Jericho in redemptive history and worse than first-century Rome.

Written by Carl R. Trueman | Monday, May 27, 2024

Perhaps Crenshaw thinks Biden’s America is more of a “negative world” than Nero’s Rome and that the New Testament’s normative expectations of Christian behavior therefore do not apply. Or perhaps he thinks New Testament ethical teaching represents a kind of slave morality in our current political moment. If so, QED. The conclusion of Crenshaw’s article is,... Continue Reading

Joachim Neander, a Score and Ten Years

His life shows that even when the Christian wanders, the grace of forgiveness leading to renewal of purpose can lead to beneficial ministry.

Written by Barry Waugh | Monday, May 27, 2024

Neander refused to adopt the order of the Reformed Church and he would not subscribe to the Heidelberg Catechism. He was censured by the Presbyterium (similar to a presbytery) in October, 1676, and added to the charges concerning his church ministry were accusations regarding his operation of the school. At the school he had developed... Continue Reading

An Attractive Pen Portrait of David Livingstone

Livingstone’s Christian lifestyle could not be denied and made a strong positive impression on Stanley.

Written by Vance Christie | Sunday, May 26, 2024

Stanley summarized his high estimation of the Doctor by stating in his book How I Found Livingstone: “My friendly reader, … God grant that if ever you take to traveling in Africa, you will get as noble and true a man for your companion as David Livingstone! For four months and four days I lived... Continue Reading

Respond to Conflict Like Francis Schaeffer

Review: ‘The Mark of the Christian’ by Francis A. Schaeffer

Written by Andrew Le Peau | Tuesday, May 21, 2024

Schaeffer says our love must be observable, something others can see. Observable love often requires saying sorry and asking for forgiveness—with a spouse, a friend, a child, a parent, or another person or group we’ve wronged. This is simple, but it won’t be easy. In my experience, it takes great strength of character to say,... Continue Reading

The NFL’s Condemnation of Harrison Butker Exemplifies the Left’s Anti-Christian Bigotry

If you just want to be left alone, to live and let live, you need to understand that the left is not going to allow that.

Written by John Daniel Davidson | Monday, May 20, 2024

Anti-Christian, and especially anti-Catholic, bigotry is the last acceptable prejudice in America. For such people, there can be only one faith in post-Christian America. They are not going to share a republic with people like Butker, and will do whatever they can to silence, deplatform, and discredit every prominent Christian who stands against them. At the same...

Countercultural Courage

One man’s quest to destroy false narratives and restore the black community to foundational truths.

Written by Sharon Dierberger | Tuesday, May 14, 2024

Qualls decided in high school he didn’t want to become a casualty of a broken home. But it wasn’t until he started dating Sheila that he saw up-close the true blessings of an intact family. Qualls watched Sheila’s father—a former sergeant major in the Army—sit quietly in his chair reading the Bible, then work demanding rotating... Continue Reading
