Adult Child Estrangement From Parents
Adult estrangement from parents is a current phenomenon.
A primary cause of estrangement is something called “anxious parenting.” There are so many things for good parents to legitimately be concerned about in the lives of their child – drugs, sex, gender identity, kidnappings, terrorism, school shootings, pandemics, bullying, school quality, socialization, moral and character development – as well as challenges to faith in...

Brothers, We Are Presbyterian
A very well-organized clandestine political wing of our denomination has been exposed for being exactly what it is, despite many of us having been assured time and time again that the National Partnership was merely an exclusive fellowship organization akin to a type of pastors’ support group.
Members of the National Partnership: plainly speaking, you shot yourselves in the foot. Your secrecy aroused all kinds of paranoid speculation. You were authors of your own worst critiques. Going forward, open communication will serve you well in defending unfair characterizations of yourselves. I do not believe the National Partnership as an organization needs to... Continue Reading
Judge Makes Stunning Ruling for Businesses with Religious Beliefs
The report explained the judge’s decision starts the process of resolving multiple questions left unaddressed by the Supreme Court’s decision in its Bostock case, where the justices granted anti-bias protections for sexual orientations and gender identity.
The Washington Examiner explained the judge ordered, “The court holds that the Religious Business-Type Employer Class, and All Opposing Employer Class, are permitted to create and maintain codes of conduct that regulate the sexual conduct of their employees, to the extent that those policies do not target solely homosexual or transgender activities.” A federal judge has...

School Places Professor On Leave After Controversial Interview Defending ‘Minor-Attracted Persons’
The Old Dominion professor wrote a book titled, 'A Long Dark Shadow: Minor-Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity'
“Reactions to Dr. Walker’s research and book have led to concerns for their safety and that of the campus,” Kennedy added. “Furthermore, the controversy over Dr. Walker’s research has disrupted the campus and community environment and is interfering with the institution’s mission of teaching and learning.” Old Dominion University announced it had put a professor on...

“Intentional Childlessness” on the Rise
Many young adults who are choosing not to have children express a hostility toward the very idea of family.
Anti-natalism is a philosophy of hopelessness and misanthropy. It is also increasingly revealing itself to be rooted in resentment, fear, and a belief that children are a burden. The way that our culture sees children specifically, and humans in general, is wildly out of step with how God sees them. “I never expected to... Continue Reading
University Professor’s Book Aims To Destigmatize Pedophilia Because There’s No ‘Immorality’ In Being Attracted To Children
Here we go again: Pedophilia being redefined with a Side B definition: MAP (minor-attracted persons) refers to someone who has preferential attractions to minors.
“I want to be extremely clear that child sexual abuse is never ever okay,” Walker said. “But having an attraction to minors as long as it isn’t acted on, doesn’t mean that the person who has those attractions is doing something wrong.” University professor Allyn Walker wrote a book about people who are attracted...

Covid, Coercion, and Children
This is a choice that parents should make for their children – not something to be forced upon kids by the State.
The efficacy and safety of these vaccines can be debated, and time will tell as to how all this plays out. But the issue of health mandates, forced vaccinations, vax passports, and all the other coercive public health measures are a real worry, and something I have been arguing against for twenty months now. Healthcare... Continue Reading
Abortion Is Unjust Discrimination
It disqualifies a human being from being a valuable person.
We live in an upside-down world. Abortion-choice advocates claim to champion inclusion, but they exclude a certain class of human beings. They claim to champion the oppressed, but they oppress the weak. They claim to eschew discrimination, but they unjustly discriminate. By contrast, pro-life advocates are inclusive, champion the weak, and don’t discriminate against those... Continue Reading
Abide Project Seeks to Uphold “Historic, Beautiful, Biblical Understanding of Human Sexuality’”
Pastors and church leaders in the group were alarmed by the decision of Neland Avenue CRC to ordain a deacon who was in a same-sex marriage.
“The goal for the Abide Project is to see the HSR passed,” said Steenwyk, emphasizing that this is not a political goal, but a prayer for the movement of the Holy Spirit. “I do believe that matters of sexuality have confessional status, like many other issues of holiness and discipleship. Where we need more guidance... Continue Reading
Grief, Confession, and Prayer for Peace
We differ over the theology of Revoice and Side B homosexuality. And, as is clear right now, we differ over the needfulness of Overtures 23 and 37.
By God’s grace, I continue to examine my heart and repent as best I know how of the sin I find present there, I hope my brothers in the National Partnership and those rushing to their defense will carefully consider why so many men and women in the PCA are vexed over what was revealed...
