  • Abolish the Blue?

    Abolish the Blue?

    2020 has been quite the year. Everyone talked about perfect vision. Then, the proverbial feces hit the fan. COVID-19 swept the world and still is. There were murder hornets. One man’s show of unnecessary force was met with unnecessary nation-wide outrage. People are being killed by sickness and one-another. I know what’s going on here.…

  • Open Letter to Dave Gass, a pastor who recently left his faith

    Open Letter to Dave Gass, a pastor who recently left his faith

    Dave, I don’t know if you will read this or not. When I was a teenager, I saw the church in the way that you are describing now. God was a joke as far as I was concerned and I could really care less about religion of any kind. It was a crutch and an…

  • Many Are Listening and Criticizing, what is the response of the teacher?

    Many Are Listening and Criticizing, what is the response of the teacher?

    I love the teaching of John Macarthur. I respect him highly as an expositor. I am thankful for his ministry. In the same way, I respect men like Matt Chandler, Francis Chan, and others of that stature. They have done much in the way of honest Biblical theology and of paving the way for Christ-centered…

  • The Kavanaugh Effect

    The Kavanaugh Effect

    No reasonable person is speaking out against Dr. Ford, and rightly so. Those who continue to lambast her probably need a good punch in the face, and the Honorable Judge Kavanaugh probably needs a few beers after what Senator Graham referred to as a political “Hell” metaphorically engulfed him in flames. Who I saw during…

  • Dear Teenager,

    Dear Teenager,

    When I was a preteen and a teenager growing up in church, I remember feeling as though there was no place for me. We had youth group, and our youth group averaged more than one-hundred students on Wednesday evening. We went to camps, went on retreats, did missions projects, had cool t-shirts, had awesome music,…

  • Forgetting that the Gospel is Good News, Romans 1:7

    Forgetting that the Gospel is Good News, Romans 1:7

    There is much we can learn in the introduction of the letters in Scripture. I notice that we have a tendency in this sinful condition to do two things. First, we are quick to skip most introductions. We skip the preludes in most books today. Second, we tend to forget that the Gospel is good…

  • Haralding the King, What Evangelism Accomplishes

    Haralding the King, What Evangelism Accomplishes

    What is evangelism and why do we practice it? If God draws people to Himself and if He is the one delivering people and sustaining them, it doesn’t make much sense that we would need to practice evangelism in order to win people for the kingdom. Yet, that is often the phraseology we use, and…

  • Yes, The Pope Said Atheists Can Go To Heaven…

    Yes, The Pope Said Atheists Can Go To Heaven…

    I want to make this clear from the outset. I am not interested in blasting the Pope. There is so much hate around what the Pope said to that poor child. Yes, he lied and said something that is inconsistent with Scripture. Popes have been doing that for a long time. Then again, haven’t we…

  • The March For Our Lives- Thinking Well?

    The March For Our Lives- Thinking Well?

    Welcome to the class that you skipped. Today’s lesson: Hasty generalization (the assumption that all conservatives or liberals are a certain way) and ad hominem attacks (attacking someone’s character instead of addressing the validity of their argument). I saw these things over the last few days, in your absence, as proponents and opponents of the…
