  • You Must Be Above Reproach

    Recently, Tullian Tchividjian, pastor of “The Sanctuary” church in Jupiter, Florida, made a rather shocking post on his X account. He wrote, “10 years ago, I crashed. I cheated on my first wife and lost everything. Some believe such failures permanently disqualify a person from ministry. However, there isn’t a single passage in Scripture that

  • Be a Man Like Jesus

    Be a Man Like Jesus

    There has been much debate in our current age about the issue of masculinity. The traditional cultural image is one of a man who bravely shoulders the burden of providing and caring for his family, working hard with his hands, being a warrior who defends the home front, and who does all these things with

  • Whips, White Washed Tombs, and a Woman at the Well

    It is without question that we live in a depraved and perverse culture. Sexual immorality, infant murder in the womb, and gender confusion are just some of the sins that are celebrated as virtues throughout the nation. The Christian church must respond rightly to this growing acceptance and celebration of rebellion against God. The question,

  • Of Blind Guides, Ditches, and Imbalanced Theology

    The Christian walk requires us to be ever-thoughtful about remaining on the narrow path. The slightest deviation from God’s prescribed direction for our lives can result in falling into ditches we should have clearly seen had we been paying attention. Proverbs 4:25–27 tells us, “Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight

  • It Shall Not Be So Among You

    But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be

  • Fix Your Eyes on Christ

    The Christian finds himself in a unique place, a citizen of Heaven, yet living in this world. In this place of dual residency, he must live out his days on this side of the veil with eternity in view. The Christian must conform his thoughts, words, and deeds to Christ above all; yet, living in

  • We Are No Better

    In the last two months, former President Trump, the current Republican presidential candidate in the 2024 election, has had two attempts on his life.

  • All Things to All People?

    “I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.” – 1 Cor. 9:22b This passage has often been cited by those who argue that pragmatism in the church is an acceptable practice. That using any means necessary to grow the church is permissible if the ends (more bodies

  • It’s Not About Pluralism, It’s About Worldviews

    It would be kind to refer to David French (senior editor at The Dispatch and writer at The Atlantic) as an enigma to fellow Christians and political conservatives. In truth, it may be more accurate to describe him as a pretender to the throne. Mr. French writes as someone who espouses both Christian and politically

  • If God Is Real, Why Is Your Life So Hard?

    Recently, someone I know was asked “if God is real, why is your life so terrible?” Sadly, this is an all too common question that is loaded with presuppositions. It assumes that for God to be real, life cannot be difficult. It assumes that I should never have to deal with difficulty. It assumes that
