Protecting Purity in a Technological Corinth Q & A on Life Changes The Promise of Heaven in Medical Facilities Reaching the Next Generation: Challenge Them with Truth Living a Life of Grace and Truth Great Is Thy Faithfulness: A Hymn for Ordinary Christians

I tire of the incessant church-bashing and endless tales of people disillusioned with their churches. Yes, Christians can be jerks, and we’ve all had rough times in churches, largely because they consist of people too much like us: sinner-jerks in need of grace and truth and growth.

It has been my experience that most people holding this position, or at least those who actively teach it, are not open to what I believe is the clear teaching of Scripture from many passages.

It is very hard to communicate on this subject with both grace and truth. I oppose gay marriage, but not only as a matter of righteousness, but also because it is deadly to those involved in it. 

People are different. Anyone with a tendency toward violence—and certainly that can be furthered by watching violence—should NOT watch shows with violence. 

Good general book on Bible prophecy, includes Revelation but also other portions of Scripture; from a dispensational framework, like Joel Rosenberg’s The Last Days.

The Christian life is not based on avoiding the truth but on hearing and submitting to it. The greatest kindness we can offer each other is the truth.

From time to time I like to review books on my blog. Who Made God?: Searching for a Theory of Everything is a book that offers ideas and insights most of us have never pondered.
