What we see occurring today in Western culture is the late stage of a process in which Christianity is being systematically rejected by the cultural elites. But they have no new religion to replace it. For this reason, they are unable to do anything other than tear down and deconstruct Christianity. The more they succeed,... Continue Reading

The angular sizes and apparent brightnesses of distant galaxies are consistent with the Doppler model and not with the big bang. To be clear, the universe is indeed expanding because the average distance between galaxies increases with time as these galaxies move through space. But apparently, the fabric of space is not expanding. The FLRW... Continue Reading

Rome was not built in a day, and neither was the confessional, Reformed, Protestant church.

Only God can tell you who you really are. It is difficult to ascertain what it means to be human. But our identity and function are tied to our being created in God’s image, as male and female. God made us finite, bound by space and time to live in community and care for creation.... Continue Reading

In the modern west the sort of thick community, that which would allow us to witness each others’ Christians lives lived up close, is often unattractive to us. It requires us to give up some of our rights for the benefits of others. It requires us to privilege particular individuals (rather than a vague ‘everyone’... Continue Reading
