Does Biology Need “Queer Theory”?
Scientists are starting to speak out about the simple realities of “male” and “female.”
The fact that more honest scientists find it necessary to call out prestigious institutions for embracing unscientific gender nonsense says a lot about the assault on reality happening right now. Biology doesn’t need “queer theory.” It needs instead a worldview that grounds the givens of reality, givens that were put in place by God, instead... Continue Reading
Between Faith and Doubt
Five Questions for Our Skepticism
“I sympathize with doubters who may feel drawn to Christianity but find plenty of objections to keep them at arm’s distance. If you’re drawn to the message of Jesus but can’t seem to get past your doubts, perhaps it would be helpful if I share how I worked through some of my doubts.” I... Continue Reading
Spurgeon and the Sabbath: A Theological Conviction
For Spurgeon, Sabbath-breaking broke the fourth commandment in the same manner as adultery broke the sixth commandment.
Jesus’ example did not abolish the Sabbath, but it gave Christians an accurate portrayal of Sabbath observance. Consequently, due to Spurgeon’s Sabbath convictions, he would preach for sinners to repent of their Sabbath breaking. Two revolutions in the last part of the 18th century and the first part of the 19th century created anxiety for... Continue Reading
Understanding the Metamodern Mood
Metamodernism values mood and affect (how I’m feeling/what I’m resonating with) more than rigid logic.
Metamodern people have seen the unsustainability of postmodern deconstruction, and they desire construction. They want to believe problems can be solved and progress can be made. Even as they’re suspicious of absolute truth in theory, their existential reality leads them to desire it. After all, to construct anything, one must have foundations. Why, when we...

Illusion vs. Reality
States are rejecting the Biden administration’s redefinition of sex, and Christians should support them.
The Biden administration is challenging God’s created design, and God did not award the state normative authority. He allows civil powers to rule, even uses them for His purposes, but He does not grant them the right to overturn His Word. “Sex” is getting a makeover. President Joe Biden’s administration has approved a new... Continue Reading
The Forgotten Command: The Need for Repentance concerning the Lord’s Day Sabbath
We must not treat this command lightly or dismiss it as irrelevant.
God blesses those individuals and nations who honor the Sabbath, setting it apart as holy unto Him. We cannot expect revival to come to our hearts, both individually and corporately, if we stubbornly refuse obedience to this clear instruction from our Lord. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall... Continue Reading
“A Fundamentally Decent Religion”
Atheists and agnostics begin to find value in cultural Christianity, but only authentic Christianity will save.
The rise of wokeness, the all-encompassing digital age, and the decline of Western power have forced many atheists to admit that Christianity will not, as it turns out, be replaced by the rationalist regimes they dreamed of. The West is gripped by a crisis of meaning—and atheists have nothing to offer. Dawkins himself has been... Continue Reading
Hope for Struggling Christians during Pride Month
Not all “love” is love. Freedom isn’t found in doing all we desire. God is love, and he gives definition to true human love.
You’ll certainly see more rainbows during June. When you do, remember what the rainbow really means. Long before the LGBT+ community used the rainbow to communicate their message, it belonged to God, and he was sending a different message. June is Pride Month. For some, that means nothing. For others, it means everything. And... Continue Reading
3 Things You Should Know about James
When we view things in this light, we see that James does not contradict Paul’s writings but rather complements them.
Paul’s argument in Romans (and in Galatians) moves from unbelief where law-keeping fails (Rom. 1:18–3:20), to being declared right before God through faith (Rom 3:21–4:23), to adoption and sanctification that flow from justification (Rom. 5–8). In other words, Paul’s statement about justification by faith rather than works falls in his argument about how one becomes... Continue Reading
From Softness to Strength
Christian manliness in the words of Cyril of Alexandria.
Cyril makes a clear distinction between earnest manliness and immaturity. He emphasizes that only those who have reached spiritual maturity and the measure of the age of the fullness of Christ are counted as truly manly. This maturity involves surpassing the mind of youth and embodying the virtues of wisdom, strength, and courage. The divine... Continue Reading
