It’s About Discipleship
I know that I have written a lot recently about discipleship. But I have been doing a lot of study and research lately on the topic for a project that I am working on about discipleship and teenagers so it is fresh on my mind. But the topic of discipleship also came up at church
Trump Won, Now What?
The election is over. Trump will be President of the United States for a second time. He won both the Electoral vote and the Popular vote. It was a decisive victory. For many Christians, this comes as great news. We prayed for this. We campaigned for this. We fought for this. And while some of
Under Which Platform Can The Gospel Thrive?
It is Election Day here in the United States. I have talked enough about the two candidates. We know neither of them are Christian. Neither of them are of good character. So we look to policies. What each Christian must honestly ask themselves, which platform is more conducive to the Gospel? Which platform will hinder
Religious Freedom is at Stake
As we head into the final hours of the 2024 Election, I watch with much concern the events happening on a national stage. I wish to make an appeal to you that no Christian can, in good conscience, vote for Kamala Harris. Vice President Harris has shown time and time again that she is an
Boys Need Godly Men
I was twelve years old and it was going to be my first real camping trip. We were going to be backpacking in the Linville Gorge in the beautiful North Carolina mountains. I had been camping all of my life, or so I thought. But this was a different level. My parents weren’t there, I
Reformation Day: Semper Reformanda
October 31st, 1517, a day that changed the world. Though, on that specific day, there was nothing truly extraordinary that took place. Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door at the Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany. Again, nothing out of the ordinary. Announcements, invitations, and the like were often nailed to the door.
Book Review: Losing Our Religion by Russell Moore
A couple of months ago I was challenged by a friend to read “Losing Our Religion” by Russell Moore. This challenge came after several months of reading my very politically partisan posts on Facebook. It wasn’t a rebuke. It wasn’t condemnation. It was a challenge. It was to gain some perspective. So, since I have
Faith Without Christ Is Not Faith
I see a lot on Twitter or “X” about the election. This is not surprising, we are just a few weeks away from an important Presidential Election here in the United States. Now, I am not going to get into the fray in this post about who to vote for between Kamala Harris and Donald
Watered Down Christianity
I’ve been troubled by a growing trend in the church in America. The trend is catch phrases and buzzwords. It is seeking to appease the world. It is a watered down gospel. It is not Christianity. What am I talking about exactly? I am talking about the American Church’s continuing quest to no longer preach
A Response to Matt Nightingale on the “Gay Christian”
Recently, I was engaged with a man who claims to be a “gay Christian” named Matt Nightingale on whether homosexuality is sin and whether you can be a gay Christian. First, let me make very clear, there is no such thing as a gay Christian. This may sound harsh, because it is. However, we cannot
