Christian Activation: Waking Up Christians to Their Transformational Calling
Almost every morning I pray for America with what I call the four Rs. All Christians regardless of what they believe about “end times,” want America rescued from its wicked Marxist enemies, and the only way that happens is with God, specifically God in the person of...
Genesis 49: Jacob’s Farewell Prophecy to His Sons and Christ’s Kingly Reign
The continuity of the Bible is mind blowing. Sixty-six different books written by 40 or so different authors over 1500 years in Hebrew and Greek, with a little Aramaic thrown in, and yet it is one consistent message. The entirety of redemptive history is found in...
Moralism and the Horrible Freeing Ubiquitousness of Sin
Sin is all pervasive, ubiquitous. Like oxygen, in a fallen world it is everywhere. In my first 5 plus years as a Christian I tried very hard to be more moral, to do what is right and be obedient to God, but I wasn’t very good at it. Thus, guilt was a constant...

What Does It Mean We Are Forgiven From Our Sins? Part 1
Every Christian knows that being forgiven from our sins is Christianity 101. But if you ask most Christians what it means to be forgiven from our sins, I would wager that very few could answer with any confidence. I think a common answer would be something like a...
Is Jesus (i.e., God) Dying for our Sins Strange?
Skeptics are fond of mocking the idea that Jesus Christ had to die for our sins to reconcile us to God. Why can't God, I've heard some of them say, and write, can't God just forgive us. It can't be that hard; we confess, he forgives, we're good, right? No, it doesn't...

Merry Christmas, Charlie Brown!
Charlie Brown: Isn’t there anyone, who knows what Christmas is all about?! Linus: Sure Charlie Brown, I can tell you what Christmas is all about. Lights please? And there were in the same country shepherds, abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by...
Darwin’s Unbelief is News?
Over the years I've read a variety of things about Charles Darwin's faith and his so called struggle with it, as if he was truly ambivalent about it. The deeper he got into his theory of evolution, the story goes, the more his faith gave way to doubt and eventually to...
Christians Are Coming Out of the Cultural Closet
With hit "faith-based" movies like War Room and Captive, there was much discussion about Christians and film making. Interestingly enough, some of the harshest critics of these movies are from Christians themselves who seem embarrassed by what I call the cheese factor...
