    When it comes to school shootings, America really has a deeply tragic problem

    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?

    How compromised preaching is contributing to our cultural rot

    Or, viewed from another angle, rather than Christian leaders equipping their people to swim against the tide of the culture, they too are being carried by the current of the age. And that, in turn, means that the light is not shining and the salt is not being salty.

    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.

    The Buffalo shooter wanted to murder blacks and Jews, especially Jews

    May we rise up as a nation to condemn these evil acts and to demonstrate tangibly that they represent the sentiments of the tiniest, most demented fringe minority. Not on our soil! Not on our watch!

  • During the abortion debate, don't forget the hurting men, women

    During the abortion debate, don't forget the hurting men, women
