This week I have a citation from the chapter titled “A New Canon” in Voddie Baucham’s Fault Lines. In the chapter, Baucham discusses a list of books, articles, films, and social media platforms provided by Christianity Today ostensibly to “help move white people toward antiracism.” The list concerns him. So as not to be misunderstood, […]
Now that I’ve completed Voddie Baucham’s Fault Lines, I decided to share a few more excerpts that struck me as particularly instructive (and quotable). What follows is taken from the chapter titled, “A New Religion”. — — — “‘I am a racist. If you think the worst thing somebody can call you is a racist […]
I started a new book the other day, one which examines Critical Race Theory and “social justice” from a conservative biblical perspective and their part in the looming civil war (my words) threatening to split the Evangelical Church writ broad. The following excerpt comes from the Introduction… — — — “[Recent years have born witness […]
As promised, this week we continue the argument — as presented by Gergis, Anderson, and George in What Is Marriage? (2012/2020) — against the libertarian position that the institution of marriage should be privatized and the state (i.e., government) keep its nose out of the marriage business. — — — “Let us take a closer […]
I have long said that, while solidly conservative, I have a libertarian streak. A small streak perhaps, but it’s there, in that I can at least sympathize with some of the thinking. Granted, I should probably do more reading to better understand certain libertarian positions. One of those is the suggestion that marriage is solely […]
This is a slightly belated Thanksgiving post, but… it’s still the Thanksgiving Weekend, right? This year, I would like to take note of three things I am truly thankful for. Well, I guess I should say they are classes or categories of things. First, I want to acknowledge the U.S. military, intelligence services, and law […]
“My issue had nothing to do with homophobia or anything against LGBTQ. Quite the contrary, it had to do with oversexualization, exposing our children to comic book characters or social media where they’re constantly being bombarded with sexual images.” — Sophia Nelson Yes, in case it slipped past your current events radar, DC Comics announced […]
I confess, I’m not familiar with the “Drive Thru History” channel on YouTube. But, I heard about this, and it is a very good (roughly 1 hour) documentary on the tragic, historic events of 9/11/2001. “Through incredible video footage and narration, this special walks through the events of 9/11, highlighting stories of terrorism and heroism, […]
“Did you not see the radical, destructive, anti-Christian policy decisions he would make?” — Michael Brown The following is an edited-down version of a column by Christian theologian, apologist, and radio host Dr. Michael Brown. I largely agree with Brown’s position and his frustration with the incredulity of pro-life evangelicals who voted for Joe Biden. […]
The following insightful remarks are from Dr. Owen Strachan, Provost and Research Professor of Theology at Grace Bible Theological Seminary. I’m not certain, but they may be excerpted either from Strachan’s latest book, Christianity and Wokeness, or an upcoming one. Regardless, I think he drops some much-needed truth bombs (as one FB commenter put it). […]
