Franklin Graham and the Mayor of Liverpool – Which One is the Real Hate Preacher?
Franklin Graham is not a "hate preacher"
The American evangelist is due to speak at a youth event in the Wirral and at the Liverpool exhibition centre on 14 May as part of his God Loves You UK tour. The invite says, “Join Franklin Graham as he shares a personal message of hope and enjoy an exciting evening of live music. This... Continue Reading
Gender Dysphoria and Adverse Childhood Experiences
The way out of rushing to surgical interventions lies in acknowledging that transgender identification has deep roots in the psyche and evaluating gender distress through the lens of adverse childhood experiences.
Individuals who feel distress about their gender need the expertise of someone knowledgeable and trained in the treatment of adverse childhood experiences—a trauma therapist. A skilled trauma therapist will ask probing questions to help the client identify the disordered thoughts and discover the link to childhood experiences. Seven years ago, in my first Public Discourse article, “I... Continue Reading
Tim Keller & Myxomatosis Christians
The moment for Christians to love our enemies and pray for them will never pass; but the idea that they will embrace us, or even tolerate us, if we just be sweet is no longer viable.
I don’t know a lot about Tim Keller, except by reputation. He seems to be a very fine man, and devout Christian. I couldn’t imagine saying a bad thing about him, but some of you Evangelicals who follow him more closely than I do might disagree. All I can say is that Winsome World Christians... Continue Reading
Christian Leaders and Controversies: The Case of Francis Collins
There is always a dilemma for Christians in best handling and reacting to the positions and counsel of Christian leaders.
In essence, what these people were saying is that Francis Collins is such a good scientist because you can hardly tell he is a Christian from his work. As a much younger biology professor at the time, I was aghast at this. A Christian has separated his religious views from his personal life. Why is... Continue Reading
Brave Finns: 1939 and 2022
In 2004, Dr. Räsänen, a physician and former Minister of the Interior, wrote a short booklet on the Bible’s teachings regarding sexuality, including a section on homosexuality. Bishop Pohjola’s church published the booklet.
But the Finnish military members of 1939-40 have not been the only ones to exhibit exemplary valor in the Scandinavian “land of forests.” In a moral sense, in recent years up to the present day the high courage of two Finnish Christians – Lutheran Bishop Juhana Pohjola and Member of Parliament Dr. Päivi Räsänen –...

Manitoba’s First Medically Assisted Death In A Church Was An ‘Intimate’ Ceremony
Betty Sanguin spent her last day with family and friends at Churchill Park United. Sanguin chose to die in the sanctuary that day.
But this was no ordinary church service. Sanguin chose to die in the sanctuary that day. Last spring, Sanguin was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). And when she decided to access medical assistance in dying (MAiD), she wanted the procedure to happen at her church. Churchill Park United’s leadership team unanimously approved her request,...

The Roots of the LGBTQ Movement
The sexual revolution with its LGBTQ manifestation is an anti-faith movement with anti-God motivations.
Believers must recognize that some ideas and movements originate from biblical principles and have godly goals that liberate neighbors. Other ideas and movements originate from rebellious impulses with godless goals that exploit neighbors. If God’s love is “the foundational truth about human sexuality,” then we must outright reject the godless ideas that have a veneer... Continue Reading
Black Fathers and White Fathers
Part of Critical Race Theory is the assumption that racism is inevitably related to white male heterosexuality and the oppressive patriarchy that occurs under the selfish rule of powerful father-figures.
In our time, beyond the ultimate issues of theism and atheism, two fundamental and very practical theories regarding patriarchy oppose each other, with essential implications for human survival: either a biblical view of human existence (which presupposes the flourishing of the natural or nuclear family and the male/female distinction) or a CRT atheist “anti-racist” view...

A Critical Look at Critical Race Theory in America’s Classrooms
Radical activists who aim to keep critical race theory in schools want students to believe that America’s laws and cultural institutions are beyond repair.
The Heritage Foundation invited 13 scholars to contribute to “The Critical Classroom,” a volume that uncovers the often surreptitious application of critical race theory and analyzes the effects that such a biased theory has on teachers and students alike. (The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.) “The Critical Classroom” traces the origins... Continue Reading
Homosexual Acceptance Among Evangelicals
The last several decades have brought profound shifts in beliefs and practices about sexuality among Evangelical Protestants.
There is much we can do to see that believers are grounded in biblical teaching on sex as they face contrary messages and confusion, not just out there “in the world,” but in too many churches and other ostensibly evangelical Christian settings. Overall, our sexual teaching and practice must be embedded within a rich tapestry... Continue Reading
