A Time to Keep Silence: A Dissenting Perspective on the Nashville Massacre

Let us recognize that this is for many of us “a time to keep silence” (Eccl. 3:7) and act accordingly.

Written by Tom Hervey | Wednesday, April 5, 2023

This massacre was perpetrated by one person in one place and toward one group of people. Even granting that we share a faith and formal ecclesiastical ties, there is a case for many of us keeping silent and not presuming to advise or to otherwise discuss the matter. In a matter so awful even consolation... Continue Reading

Fear of Rejection in the Bible

It might be encouraging to know that fear of rejection has been a problem for a number of illustrious people throughout history.

Written by Edward T. Welch | Monday, April 3, 2023

Even his opponents could see this: “Teacher, we know that you are true and teach the way of God truthfully, and you do not care about anyone’s opinion, for you are not swayed by appearances” (Matt. 22:16). Of course, their remarks were a form of flattery by which they hoped to trap Jesus, but they... Continue Reading

The Christian Soldier

On December 14, 1862, Dabney preached a sermon titled The Christian Soldier. This brief article will analyze the concept of a "Christian Soldier."

Written by David T. Crum | Monday, April 3, 2023

Outside of courage, Dabney felt the Christian maintained an eternal peace that assisted him on the battlefield and even upon facing death. Any student studying Jackson knew this was clear in the general’s life. If you surrendered your worries to God’s Sovereign will, could this promote a better soldier? Dabney remained adamant that this was... Continue Reading

Light to Dispel Darkness: The Gospel’s Hope Arising From A Senseless Act

Pastor Scruggs said of his beloved daughter Hallie: “Through tears we trust that she is in the arms of Jesus who will raise her to life once again.”

Written by George Grant | Friday, March 31, 2023

Grief gripped the entire Nashville community. In shock, as pundits and politicians attempted to make sense of the senseless, across our presbytery men and women gathered in their homes, schools, and churches to pray. We did not need to ask, “Why did this have to happen? Why did this have to happen to us?” We... Continue Reading

Singing in the Face of Suffering

In the midst of grief, God's people have historically cried out to Him in song.

Written by Ryan Biese | Friday, March 31, 2023

Although the best comfort comes from God’s word, Christians have for centuries reflected on the hardships of life in light of the truth of God’s word in those seasons and written beautiful poetry shaped by the ideas and principles of the Scripture to find perspective and hope in God. God’s people have never been strangers... Continue Reading

On Theologian Thunberg

Greta Thunberg is now a top theologian?

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Thursday, March 30, 2023

She is up to her gills in religion. And her religion is of course radical environmentalism. She worships at that altar, and wants all of us to do the same. For many people today who have thrown out the one true God, the vacuum is replaced by various substitutes. Hardcore green religion is one of them.... Continue Reading

Humility, a Mother’s Beautiful Gift

Fear of the Lord resulted in the sweet gift of humility my mother left her family and world.

Written by Helen Louise Herndon | Monday, March 27, 2023

As she aged becoming very frail, we were living together; I tended to her needs.  One Sunday afternoon, I prepared dinner and served it in our little kitchen.  I asked her to say grace.  Being raised Catholic she once knew only a prescribed prayer.  Growing in her faith in Christ, she began to pray more...

‘Christianity and Liberalism’ at 100

It’s worth pointing out that this year is the 100th anniversary of this landmark work: J. Gresham Machen’s Christianity and Liberalism

Written by Chris Queen | Monday, March 27, 2023

Machen notes how liberal Christians ignore what the Bible clearly notes as sin (see how timely it is?) when he writes, “Without the consciousness of sin, the whole of the gospel will seem to be an idle tale. But how can the consciousness of sin be revived? Something no doubt, can be accomplished by the... Continue Reading
