Social Media Is a Spiritual Distortion Zone

Let’s be proactive in thinking through how we bring gospel hope and reformation to this deformation space.

Written by Ian Harber | Tuesday, August 22, 2023

What if instead of seeking a large platform to make a name for themselves, individual Christians made niche, interest-based content for specific audiences, seeing themselves as missionaries to those people? Instead of the Christian media landscape being dominated by a handful of celebrities, small to midsize Christian content creators—rooted in their local churches—have the opportunity to...

The Transgender Movement’s House of Cards Is Falling

A growing number of doctors, patients, and whistleblowers are beginning to question the medical establishment’s recommendations for children with gender dysphoria.

Written by Emilie Kao | Tuesday, August 22, 2023

Instead of fostering serious, objective scientific inquiry and heeding concerns from within their own ranks, the establishment continues to rely on WPATH’s guidelines for dealing with gender dysphoria. And contrary to sound inquiry, WPATH cherry-picked studies instead of conducting a systematic review of the best available evidence. As one member of the Endocrine Society recently...

What Are You Living For?: Exploring Church, Family, and the Threat of Illness

If the game plan is to avoid church until death, we are already there.

Written by Rob Golding | Monday, August 21, 2023

Life is simply not worth living without God, and it is very difficult without family. Remove both, and you have existence, not life. One might say that he avoids church and gatherings because he does not want to die, but we must ask in return, “What are you living for?” Whatever the response, it will... Continue Reading

The Lies of “Born This Way”

An LGBTQ Presumption and the Damage it has Done

Written by Nathanael Blake | Friday, August 18, 2023

The lie of “born this way” has been used to justify exposing children to sexual material and teaching them about gender ideology at ever-younger ages. Coaston handwaves away these influences, even as she writes about the increase in LGBTQ identification that shows that they are succeeding in recruiting children into rainbow identities.   The LGBTQ movement...

Mainline Seminaries All-In on “Queering the Divine”

Queer theology places spiritual identity in sexual expression instead of God’s redeeming grace.

Written by Rena Mainetti | Friday, August 18, 2023

Grove City College professor Carl Trueman describes the modern self  with the term expressive individualism in a lecture at the C.S. Lewis Institute. In the contemporary age, we ground our sense of self in psychological satisfaction instead of external obligations. Trueman argues that this shift historically occurred in three stages.   Progressive divinity schools and churches have... Continue Reading

The Must-See 12-Minute Documentary on the Transgender Movement

According to Rufo, the transgender movement is inherently political. It uses “the construction of personal identity to advance a collective political vision”.

Written by Ben Terangi | Tuesday, August 15, 2023

Transgenderism and Marxism are closely intertwined. Rufo highlights the work of Rosa Lee who saw trans people as “the new vanguard of the proletariat” who will help “abolish heteronormativity in the same way that orthodox Marxism promised to abolish capitalism”. In short, argues Rufo, “All of society must be reorganised to affirm their identities and more...

US Is a Top Destination for Child Sex Trafficking, and It’s Happening in Your Community

It’s not hard to figure out the types of public policies that could reduce trafficking. Policymakers should focus on social media use, the porn industry, and broken families.

Written by Emma Waters | Tuesday, August 15, 2023

The most vulnerable children in the United States are those raised in single-parent homes, especially if an unrelated male is present. Children are 11 times more likely to suffer sexual and physical abuse in such situations. Without the protection of a mother and father in the home, children are more likely to run away, go missing, or... Continue Reading

Why Russell Moore Is Wrong about Uganda

Christians should support the Ugandan law to protect society from a wickedness that will infect and destroy it.

Written by Philotheos | Monday, August 14, 2023

Natural law directs us toward genuine human happiness, but this is understood within a theological and moral context of mankind having a finis ultimus and summum bonum that can only be finally fulfilled in knowing God. One cannot merely haphazardly invoke the rights of “life, liberty, and happiness” divorced from their original political, moral, and... Continue Reading

The Creepy and Tawdry History of Barbie

The most revealing part of the Barbie phenomenon back story is that it seems it was a dissatisfied parent and marketer who triggered an unfortunate and significant shift in children’s dreams and even desires.

Written by Paul Batura | Monday, August 14, 2023

Ruth stumbled upon a doll in an “adult” store where consumers were known to buy gag novelty gifts for bachelor parties. In fact, the doll was based on a German cartoon character that ran in the comics of a Hamburg newspaper. Drawn by an artist named Reinhard Beuthien, the character was called “Bild Lilli,” and...
