‘Jesus Stood Here’: The Land of Israel and Our Historical Faith
In his album, “Resurrection Letters,” Andrew Peterson describes, in a song called “Maybe Next Year,” how a visit to Jerusalem made his faith real like never before. “This is the place where Abraham/cut loose the boy and he killed the ram...
A Tale Of Two Lunches
The law can inform us of our sin but it cannot transform the sinner. Only the gospel can do that.
A Matter of (Gay) Pride?
Can we find pride in what we know to be sin? That question contains its own answer. There is no way that biblical Christians committed can join in the chorus of gay pride.
The Incident of the Fish
A couple of years ago I decided that I’d try to read through the works of historian David McCullough (a project that continues). I eventually came to Brave Companions, a book that offers “Portraits in History”—brief glimpses of people and...
Creating a Culture of Marriage
There is much consternation over the state of marriage today. The institution itself has suffered serious social diminution—so much so that same-sex marriage appears inevitable. But the blame for this lies less with the culture at large than with...
In Defense of Disney Princesses
My daughters all struggle with the bad images that our culture sends women, but chief among these is not the Disney princess.
Confessions of a Homeschool Mom
Aside from the question of "how I do it all," I often hear moms lamenting that they aren't sure they can homeschool because they aren't super organized and they don't have it all together. Somehow they assume - incorrectly - that I am super...
Countering the Commercialization of Christmas
Christmas is celebrated today more as a sales frenzy than as the most important birth in history. How can we, as Christians, bring some balance to modern materialism?
The Ministry of Amiable Nicks
The devil does it all the time: little digs in movies, wounding words in conversation, all meant to diminish the honor and influence of Christianity. But two can play at that game.
The Forgotten Liberators of Iraq
Beyond the Christianization of Abortion
"What I think is important overall, especially right now, is that we Christians remember that being Christian gives us no uniquely deep claim on abhorrence to abortion. Abortion is as much a 'secular' concern as it is a Christian one. When I was a...
The Season of the Witch
“When did everybody become a witch?” No, this wasn’t asked at a Halloween party in regard to a proliferation of witch costumes. It was raised by the New York Times in an article charting the explosion of witches (or those dabbling in witchcraft)...
4 Amazing Bible Characters You Have Never Heard Of
If you’re interested in learning about real people who stood behind the spotlight instead of in it, check out this list of under-recognized Old Testament characters.
How Long Should a Pastor’s Sermon Be?
The Pope recently urged pastors to keep sermons under 10 minutes, sparking a debate on whether brevity or depth should guide sermon length—so how do we find the right balance?
The University of Virginia’s NCAA Championship: Faithfulness in Little Things
Thirteen months ago, the University of Virginia men’s basketball team suffered the most humiliating defeat in NCAA Tournament history. Not only were the Cavaliers the first number-one seeded team is history to lose their opening round game to a...
Understanding the Threat of Islamism to Christians and Western Values
The global surge of Islamist activity, marked by violent acts, protests, and religious tensions, has sparked significant concern for Christians and Western societies. From terrorist attacks in New Orleans and violent demonstrations in Europe to...
The Weight of Glory in a Time of Blood and Fear
The glory of God is not in our norms or our stable monuments but in the life of Christ, and the life of Christ only. Everything else is stripped away. “All other ground is sinking sand,” one might say. And that’s true for all of us as we follow...
How HRC’s Corporate “Equality” Index Harms Children
The Corporate Equality Index, while presented as a tool for LGBTQ inclusion, is reshaping corporate policies to influence reproduction and family structures, often at the expense of children's well-being.
A Christian Vision of Marriage and Family
"For the first time in its history, Western civilization is confronted with the need to define the meaning of the terms 'marriage' and 'family.'" So states author Andreas J. Kostenberger who, with the assistance of David W. Jones has written God,...
