“The concept of the Sabbath is debated among Christians. Some all but disregard it by making Sunday no different than any other day except for attending church. Others go to the other extreme and strictly adhere to rules on what they can and cannot do on Sundays, bearing resemblance to the Pharisees of Jesus’s day.…“

“As the world around us is reeling from another bank collapse, the threats of war, stock market downturns, recession, inflation, interest rate hikes, and an incompetent administration, remember Who is in control. We are not ultimately beholden to a schizophrenic market because our hope lies in the only one who can guarantee our survival.”

“The Church has often been unsure how to properly view the Old Testament Law, and opponents of Christianity often point out how Christians seem to arbitrarily obey some of the laws while ignoring others. This post addresses how Christians can approach the Mosaic Law in a manner consistent with the whole of Scripture, especially the…”

“Why does God sometimes feel distant? Why are there times and seasons when it seems like God is either aloof or further away from us than at others?”

“And while humanity has fallen far short of God's glorious standard, doing vile and shameless things to one another, God Himself would provide the cure.

“The issue of gender is at the forefront of cultural and political debate, so as Christians we need to have an answer based on Scripture for the topic of transgenderism. While most of us will never debate the topic on a stage or in a book, we will all likely encounter people who insist we call them by pronouns clearly inconsistent with biology (and organizations that require us to comply). This is a Scriptural response to that situation. that I hope will aid Christians in conscientiously objecting to such requests and policies.”

“Christ has a vision for the entire world and not just for our homes, which means that the scope of the gospel, the goal for which the Church is laboring, will not be accomplished until all the children of the world come under God’s blessing and have been taught a biblical worldview,”
