In recent years, a wave of ideological thinking commonly referred to as "wokeism" has infiltrated various aspects of American society, including religious communities. This flawed, emotion-driven mindset transforms logical inconsistencies and dubious motives into a...

In a world that is grappling with the disturbing reality of suicide rates among people who identify as "transgender," we must approach this topic without compromising the truth of God's Word. Although the world points fingers at the Church, particularly, conservative,...

With apologies to Kierkegaard, there are two ways to be deceived. One is to believe what isn’t true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true. I prefer always to assume the Bible is right, while atheists always assume the scientists are right. Both positions are...
