What the early church said about abortion
When we look to the Scriptures, it is clear that the Bible describes the humanity of the baby in the womb. This is a child with potential life and destiny ahead, not a clump of cells.
Fat is not fit
In other words, being obese often leads to premature death. As expressed by the bestselling author Dr. Joel Fuhrman, we are “digging our own graves with forks and knives.” Why on earth would we celebrate that?
When it comes to school shootings, America really has a deeply tragic problem
When it comes to the terrible, inexcusable loss of children’s lives on our watch, we must put away our pet peeves and our partisan politics, and we must ask: “To the best of our ability, what can we do together to prevent such tragedies from happening in the future without turning our country into a giant, authoritarian police state?”
As Evangelical Christians, we are bringing reproach to the name of Jesus
First, there are the victims of sexual abuse who suffered the double indignity of being abused and then ignored, demeaned, disbelieved, and silenced. And this was at the hands of well-known, highly respected Christian leaders, according to the report. How can this be?

Who can now say, “Well, my vote will not stop abortion?” On the contrary, your vote could help outlaw abortion in your state.

What is much more concerning to me is that Pastor Locke also said in his message that he was sick of hearing about January 6, saying, “Let me tell you something. You ain’t seen an insurrection yet.”
Baseless hatred is destroying our nation
Yet every day, in the most irresponsible ways, political leaders, news outlets, and talking heads in the media are flaming the fires of racial and ethnic hatred. Worse still, many of them are doing this for the purpose of political gain or viewer ratings.
We are to be the salt of the earth
We can’t fix something else if we ourselves are broken. We can’t prevent the spread of corruption if we ourselves are corrupt. We can’t function as salt if we ourselves have lost our saltiness.
The cultural evolution is here, but...
We are seeing Americans across the country saying, “Enough is enough.” But unless this revolution is Gospel-based, it will ultimately fail, and whatever gains are realized will be quickly lost.
