The World Has Changed, God Hasn’t.
Canada can change, Ukraine can change, the world can change. But God doesn’t change.
God is still omnipotent: there is no one on earth more powerful than him. He is still omnipresent: he is everywhere. He can hear the cries and prayers in Canada, Russia, Ukraine, and everywhere in the world. God is still omniscient: he knows what we need before we even ask him. He is still sovereign: He...

A Society Ashamed of Shame
Adidas is playing to the intuitions of a culture that has lost all notion of modesty.
A sense of shame is nothing of which to be ashamed. Shame and modesty are not in principle oppressive. On the contrary, they are the means by which children learn to grow up, and to handle their emergence as sexual beings with responsibility. They are the cultural codes that help keep women safe. It is... Continue Reading
Woke Education Too Much Even for San Francisco
Parents in San Francisco, one of the most liberal cities in the country, have had enough, voting overwhelmingly to recall the leadership of the school board.
The San Francisco school board recall should send a message to Democrats that far left progressivism does not sell well even to rank and file Democrats. The election should also send a message to the educational establishment, that “woke” education has gone way too far and that its crusade for hyper-purity is alienating even liberal parents,...

Understanding Ukraine
Ukraine is an amazing country with – in contrast to the revisionist version recently espoused by Vladimir Putin – a long history.
The history of Ukrainian Christianity is as complex as its political history. Sixty-seven per cent of the population declare themselves to be Orthodox believers, 2.2 per cent Protestant, 9.4 per cent Byzantine Rite Catholic, 2.5 per cent Islam and 0.4 per cent Jewish. Only three per cent of the population profess to be atheist. It... Continue Reading
Another Unhinged Professor Has Been Exposed as a Pedophilia Apologist
Let’s be abundantly clear: this is not a complicated issue. Pedophilia is evil.
Make no mistake, there is a broad and deliberate push in nearly all areas of public life to normalize pedophilia. This push must be fought wherever it is found, without reservation. This article contains obscene quoted material. The notion that it’s wrong even with a one-year-old is not quite obvious to me… I don’t... Continue Reading
The Dogmas that Must be Questioned
The claims of the LGBTQ+ movement don’t hold up under the scrutiny of medical reality.
Out of love for human beings made in the image of God, we Christians must oppose the well-funded political lobbyists determined to prevent trans people from having the care and help they need. And we need to take back the rhetoric of love, and in our attitudes and our actions toward those struggling with his... Continue Reading
Distort the Present, Rewrite the Past
Following the lead of other major cultural institutions, the Metropolitan Museum of Art redefines its purpose as overcoming the racism of Western civilization.
Whether art museums or classical music organizations, those institutions have sacrificed their comparative advantages—connoisseurship, scholarly knowledge, and devotion to the highest expressions of culture—in favor of a partisan political program that distorts both present and past. Like the Art Institute of Chicago, the Metropolitan Museum of Art has redefined itself as an antiracist “agent of change.”... Continue Reading
“Non-Directive” Preaching
The committee has concluded that religious teaching and prayer about sexual identity should only be permitted if it’s conducted in a “non-directive way”.
“Non-directive” religion will mean that the censors have to cut most of the apostle Paul’s letters in half, and put the second-part through the paper-shredder. The Scottish government are OK with Ephesians chapters 1-3. That’s just “teaching”. But when Paul gets to his “therefore” in chapter 4, all the “directive” instruction in chapters 4-6 needs...

Christian Reformed Church Renewal Movement Stands Against LGBTQ Theology
Organized in 2021, the Abide Project seeks “to uphold the historic, beautiful, Biblical understanding of human sexuality in doctrine, discipleship, and discipline” in the CRC.
One third of the Calvin University faculty signed a statement opposing the Human Sexuality Report. All One Body has released a series of talking head videos of therapists, social scientists and pastors discrediting the Human Sexuality Report. Synod 2022 meets June 10-16 at Calvin University and will likely be monumental. The Abide Project’s stated goal... Continue Reading
Wars and Rumors of War
If the Russians move on Estonia, all of the European members and the United States would be obliged by treaty to go to war with Russia.
China and Russia, once rivals, have made formal alliances with each other. Not only that, both countries have made formal alliances with Iran, drawing the explosive Middle East into the global political alignments. In fact, these three countries are already being called “a new Axis.” World Wars often come as a surprise to the... Continue Reading
