How Feminism Treats Heterosexuality as a Problem
Scripture teaches that the distinction between male and female is a part of God’s good design in creation.
If you were wondering where the sexual revolution was going, this is it. This kind of thinking has been a mainstay in feminist literature for decades. Now it is spilling over into popular culture. As a matter of course, young women are increasingly being conditioned to believe that embracing lesbianism is a culturally approved way... Continue Reading
More Money or More Strings?
A homeschooling innovation brings opportunity and danger.
Homeschooling has gone mainstream. About 2.5 million students—3 percent of all school-aged children in the United States—homeschool, according to Brian Ray, president of the National Home Education Research Institute (NHERI). It’s no longer a movement of non-establishment people on the left and evangelical believers on the right: Nationwide, only 21 percent of parents in 2012... Continue Reading
Law & The Courts
A federal court strikes a powerful blow for free speech and religious freedom.
Regulating speech because it is discriminatory or offensive is not a compelling state interest, however hurtful the speech may be. It is a “bedrock principle . . . that the government may not prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable.” Christian videographers will not be...

Giving Up Darwin
The origin of species is exactly what Darwin cannot explain.
Although Stephen Meyer’s book is a landmark in the intellectual history of Darwinism, the theory will be with us for a long time, exerting enormous cultural force. Darwin is no Newton. Newton’s physics survived Einstein and will always survive, because it explains the cases that dominate all of space-time except for the extreme ends of... Continue Reading
Evolutionist Math
No doubt there are some mathematicians who believe in neo-Darwinian evolution, but can math itself have an evolutionary origin?
Granted, we would argue that the evolutionary interpretations of biology, geology, and astronomy are riddled with difficulties, and ultimately self-refuting since science is based on the principles of biblical creation. Nonetheless, the fact that things change allows evolutionists to imagine an evolutionary scenario to account for the patterns we observe in the physical world. But what... Continue Reading
Is Religious Liberty Truly In Peril? A Warning.
In a genuine exchange of ideas, viewpoints, and divergent worldviews—the arguments are very revealing.
The reality is that religious liberty is in peril in the United States and we have known it for a long time. This is one of the reasons why in the 1990s, Congress passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act with overwhelming support from both parties and in both houses of Congress. The bill’s vast public... Continue Reading
Confronting Neopaganism in the Culture and in the Church Part 1 of 3
Many now believe that grounds for existence can only be found in the irrational, in the age-old metanarrative of pantheistic Oneism.
I am proposing to use two relatively neutral, descriptive terms, Oneism and Twoism, in order to avoid applying a narrow theological system that only a few of us could affirm. These terms seek to express the only two bedrock options found in Romans 1:25: either the worship and service of creation understood as closed, homogeneous... Continue Reading
Is a Particular Lived Experience Necessary?
Some voices are suggesting that unless you’ve experienced it yourself, you need to stop talking and start listening.
With the rise of the controversy surrounding the social justice movement, many people are demanding a particular lived experience résumé in order to grant certain people a voice into the issues and challenges facing us in our day. The idea is simple. If you haven’t lived and experienced what it means to be the subject... Continue Reading
Fighting for Our Children in a Transgender Age
Why we must help them understand God's good design.
It is now considered “standard practice” to treat gender-dysphoric children with puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgery. But is it really a good idea to turn children into lifelong medical patients? We are talking about powerful drugs with negative side effects, not to mention surgeries that amputate healthy body parts. From a young age,... Continue Reading
Grievance Scholars Expose the Trojan Horse of Social Justice in Faith & Academics
The Grievance Studies affair, also referred to as the “Sokal Squared” scandal, was the fourteen-month investigative whistleblowing project.
The mission was to create bogus academic papers and submit them to academic journals in the areas of cultural, queer, race, gender, fat, and sexuality studies. The authors’ intent was to expose problems in “grievance studies,” a term they apply to a particular approach to studying these academic topics that proceed from a radical political...
