If God Approves, Let Men Condemn

Lessons from Spurgeon on controversy.

Written by Greg Morse | Saturday, August 8, 2020

Fierce loves fixed on unworthy objects mold Christians into cowards. If we have begun to love the music of our own name, manage our brand, or consider our popularity as necessary to the advancement of Christ’s kingdom, we have begun building our own kingdoms. May we say with Spurgeon, “I count my own character, popularity,... Continue Reading

PCA Minister Jean Jacob Paul: One of the 21st Century’s Newest Martyrs

Jean Jacob Paul was Presbyterian Church in America pastor and member of Northwest Georgia Presbytery.

Written by Martin Hawley | Thursday, August 6, 2020

Pastor Paul moved to Haiti, at the urging of God through the means of recurrent dreams, early in this century and began a ministry to orphaned children and the planting of churches across the nation. Beginning in 2013, Jean established a Reformed Bible college in Haiti, training young pastors and theological students in God’s Word.... Continue Reading

‘Every Knee Shall Bow’

“I believe I can’t kneel before anything but God, Jesus Christ. I chose not to kneel. I feel if I did kneel I’d be a hypocrite. I don’t want to be a hypocrite.”

Written by Rod Dreher | Thursday, August 6, 2020

This is a small thing, maybe, but it’s an example of media ignorance about religion, bordering on bigotry. Bigotry, in the sense that a journalist for a national publication is holding a Christian player up as a bad example, while making no effort to understand why a believing Christian might be uncomfortable kneeling for anything...

Colleagues, Friends Remember Professor Mike Adams: Beloved Freedom Fighter, Champion Of First Amendment

Professor Mike Adams, an atheist turned Christian conservative, a Presbyterian Church in America member, known as a firebrand and staunch defender of the unborn and Constitutional rights, has died. He was 55.

Written by Jennifer Kabbany | Tuesday, July 28, 2020

“Mike Adams became a champion of the First Amendment in the university context after his academic colleagues turned on him for becoming a conservative,” said education expert Adam Kissel in an email to The College Fix. “He fought and won an academic freedom and free speech lawsuit that vindicated the rights of faculty members across...

William Williams Pantycelyn – The Sweet Singer of Wales

From the start, people recognized Williams’s extraordinary talent for translating biblical verses and theological concepts into verse.

Written by Simonetta Carr | Saturday, July 25, 2020

Besides hymns and theological writings, Williams wrote books on a variety of subjects, such as Aurora Borealis, a description of the northern lights (which shows his continued interest in science), Pantheologia, a history of world religions with geographical and historical descriptions of various countries, and Ductor nuptiarum, neu, Gyfarwyddwr priodas, which is considered the first...

Twenty Years A Fool: My Long Journey Home From The Left

It was now clear to me that our contemporary story tellers were telling lies. They had utterly corrupted our idea of our country and culture, religion and past.

Written by Elizabeth Nickson | Thursday, July 23, 2020

This final lesson popped me right out of the cultural left where I had made my home. It was now clear to me that our contemporary story tellers were telling lies. They had utterly corrupted our idea of our country and culture, religion and past. They misread the very ground of human character. They had... Continue Reading

Living in Two Worlds

We need the inward disposition of the Puritans—the authentic, biblical, intelligent piety they showed in our hearts, lives, and churches.

Written by Joel Beeke | Sunday, July 19, 2020

Like the Puritans, live in terms of the settled judgment that the joy of heaven will make amends of any losses and crosses, strains and pains that we must endure on earth if we are going to follow Christ faithfully. Regard preparedness to die as the first step in learning to live. View this earth... Continue Reading

J. I. Packer, “Knowing God” Author, Dies at 93

The influential evangelical theologian leaves a final lesson for the church: Glorify Christ every way.

Written by Leland Ryken | Saturday, July 18, 2020

If we ask how a quiet person who minded his own business became so famous and influential, the answer is that Packer’s publishing was the vehicle by which his ideas were disseminated. His life therefore stands as a tribute to the power of the written and published word.   James Innell Packer, better known to... Continue Reading

Finding The Path Towards Healing In America

Healing among the cemetery headstones.

Written by Peter Rosenberger | Wednesday, July 15, 2020

Standing in this picturesque town since 1833, this cemetery connects families to multiple generations of history and legacy. Scrawling “Black Lives Matter” over headstones in spray paint, and vandalizing more than twenty graves, these foolish anarchists represent the worst of this country. Bonnie and Alan went to the cemetery to check on the graves of... Continue Reading

Love in the Time of Coronavirus: Isolation and the Church

The loss of community and the sense of isolation have been my normal off and on for months and years at a time for nearly two decades.

Written by Rebekah Heramb | Saturday, July 11, 2020

Part of the way we are instructed to love one another in the Epistles is to weep with those who weep and to bear one another’s burdens, actions that Jesus demonstrated for us during His earthly ministry. How are you loving fellow believers in this time of coronavirus isolation? How are you loving those who... Continue Reading
