Believers in Christ's atonement are now in declared religious union with those who make light of it; believers in Holy Scripture are in confederacy with those who deny plenary inspiration; those who hold evangelical doctrine are in open alliance with those who call...
Throughout the annals of history, no religious figure has endured the relentless scrutiny and targeted attacks quite like Jesus Christ. As the central figure of Christianity, Jesus has faced unyielding opposition from various quarters, both in ancient times and in our...
The term "homophobia," as presently understood by our contemporary society, is a linguistic construct devised by the political and social left to characterize what they describe as an irrational fear, aversion, or discrimination against those who identify as LGBTQ+ on...
As we journey through this world together, hand in hand, we must acknowledge the relentless barrage of messages that promise happiness, fulfillment, and success which come at us from all directions, ensnaring us in their tantalizing web. We are tempted to believe that...
Okay, so you walk into the typical church down the street on a Sunday morning, your heart full of anticipation to worship God, serve fellow believers, and be spiritually nourished. But instead, you find yourself subjected to a diluted sermon that is more focused on...
The incessant drumbeat of headlines detailing yet another mass shooting is both gut-wrenching and nauseating. The growing trend of violence in our society troubles the hearts of all decent people, but as believers, we understand that this is not just a physical...
The Bible is the most influential and widely read book in human history. Its teachings have shaped the course of civilization, inspired countless works of art and literature, and provided guidance and solace to millions of believers around the world. But most...
Who are we? Where did we come from? How can we interpret reality? The Bible answers all of these questions and delves deep into the nature of God, humanity, our existence, and reality itself. But how do we know what we know and how can we make sense of reality at all?...
