MARCH 25, 2021 BY RANDY ALCORN Big books full of Scripture, theology, and quotations from people long dead don’t normally sell well. Yet to my surprise, and the publisher’s, over a million copies of my 2004 book Heaven have sold. Innumerable readers, including pastors, have told me their views of the afterlife have radically changed. Why? In an […]
NOVEMBER 20, 2020 BY JIM MEISNER JR. Mainstream media in America clearly don’t understand that there are different types of Christians; just as there are different types of media, ranging from the most conservative to the most liberal. On the far right: the Southern Baptist Convention, the Catholic Church, Franklin Graham, James Dobson, Vice President Mike […]
OCTOBER 28, 2020 BY GUEST CONTRIBUTOR by guest writer Andrew Reising Growing up, There was one issue that dominated politics in my house: abortion. Like in so many pro-life households, when one candidate had a platform that said “pro-life” and the other candidate “supported a woman’s right to choose,” nothing else about the candidates mattered.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2020 BY SCOTT R. STAHLECKER Here’s a phrase you never want to see on the news ticker: “TRUMP WON’T COMMIT TO PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER: GET RID OF THE BALLOTS … THERE WON’T BE A TRANSFER.” MSNBC Unless, of course, we are watching an authoritarian broadcasting his intentions of a hostile takeover of a […]
SEPTEMBER 11, 2020 BY GRAYSON GILBERT There has been no shortage of uproar over the release of the movie Cuties on Netflix, and for good reason.

AUGUST 28, 2020 BY MARY PEZZULO Today is the Roman Catholic feast of Saint Augustine, who was an African man with an African mother, though you wouldn’t know it by looking at most of his icons– and of Saint Moses the Strong, whom nobody could whitewash.

MARCH 6, 2019 BY ANDY GILL Is White Supremacy Hiding Behind the Guise of “Diversity”? I mean probably but also, here’s why it shouldn’t really matter… How many people in 2019 drive past a church sign that says “All are welcome!” and think, “That’s definitely true!” Not too many. Feels like, at this point, the sign […]
JULY 6, 2020 BY MARY PEZZULO I thought it would make bigger news this weekend, when pro-life icon Abby Johnson said that her son isn’t Black after all. In case you just joined us: the Johnsons had an open adoption several years ago. They adopted a baby named Jude whom they’ve spoken and blogged publicly about […]
JULY 11, 2020 BY JOHN MARK N. REYNOLDS Moral men have a duty to help their neighbors, but nobody has an obligation to force other people to help. Jesus told a story of a Good Samaritan who crossed difficult social and cultural barriers to provide relief to an injured man. This is a good model for […]
