How Should the Church Respond to Gender Confusion?

article September 22, 2023
Author Jesse Johnson, who leads The Master’s Seminary Washington DC location, lays out a compelling case for why he believes the LGBQT movement is another religion, and explains how the church can respond with grace and truth.

John Stott on How the Church Preserves Our Humanness in a Dehumanized Society

article July 31, 2023
In his 1982 book I Believe in Preaching, John Stott wrote these prophetic words: “It is difficult to imagine the world in the year 2000, by which time versatile microprocessors are likely to be as common as simple calculators are today. [This will lead to] the probable reduction of human contact, as the new electronic network renders personal relationships ever less necessary.”

Women Are God-Called and God-Gifted, Essential to the Body of Christ

article July 24, 2023
I love this article on womanhood from Paul David Tripp, answering a very important question: “Is your view of women aligned with your theology?” We shouldn’t ever violate what Scripture commands in an attempt to be relevant, but we should exercise the freedom to do whatever Scripture allows, to grant women the widest and deepest and most meaningful roles in Christ’s body.  

Moral Failings in the Church: Randy Alcorn on the Pure Desire Podcast

audio April 18, 2023
Randy joined Pure Desire Ministries on their podcast to discuss the problem of Christian leaders and pastors having moral failings. Randy helps listeners to understand what contributes to the fall of high-profile leaders, how churches can recover and heal, and how to prevent failures from happening.  

Professions of Faith at Crusades: Good News or Reason for Doubt?

article January 9, 2023
I confess I grow weary of some believers’ responses to good news, especially related to evangelism. Instead of believing the best, as Christians sometimes we seem to chronically believe the worst. I remember the negative responses I received years ago when I shared a follow-up report on my Facebook about “Harvest America,” Greg Laurie’s crusade in Texas.

The Doctrinal Crisis in American Evangelical Churches: What Can We Do?

article September 30, 2022
Most readers have likely heard about individuals having a crisis of faith. We’ve learned terms such as “exvangelical” and “deconstruction.” We are sometimes familiar with entire churches, even denominations, who have lost their faith. But while it is not the first to do so, a poll released last week should serve as a dramatic wake up call to evangelical churches and their pastors.

Diagnosing Deconstruction: Four Root Causes

article June 20, 2022
I love this article by Joshua Ryan Butler, lead pastor of Redemption Tempe, a thriving church near Arizona State University. What he wrote has the ring of truth—in all four causes for what is popularly called deconstruction, and which used to be called “loss of faith.”  

Care for the Lambs: Reaching Children with the Love of Jesus

article June 17, 2022
Several months ago, Nanci read this to me from her Charles Spurgeon devotional. I found it very touching, and applicable to the subject of children and teaching them to follow Christ.

Our Mission: Make More Disciples and Fewer Performers

article June 13, 2022
What we need in our churches today are fewer actors and more sold-out followers of Jesus—converted people living lives centered on Jesus, the King of kings. And the good news is, there truly are many such people in our churches. Our goal should be to cultivate more and more of them. 

Along with Solid Doctrine, the Body of Christ Needs Gracious Culture and Lasting Friendships

article January 17, 2022
Ray Ortlund’s directness and humility in this article are refreshing. I SO loved what he had to say here about the importance of orthodox doctrine (truth), and also gracious culture and lasting friendships (grace).

Randy Alcorn

Note from Randy Alcorn: If you’re new to our website, please ignore this. We are just glad to have you here! For our regulars, giving to EPM is significantly down this year, over 39% compared to previous years, which means more has been going out of our account than coming in. If you feel led by God to support us, we would greatly appreciate any gifts to our general fund. We aren’t worried, as God has faithfully provided for our ministry for 33 years. But if you’ve found our resources to be helpful, we invite you to consider making a one-time or recurring gift to help fund our eternity-shaping work.

Jesus said, “Freely you have received, freely give” (Matt. 10:8). It’s our joy to share freely what God has so graciously entrusted to us. We are here to serve everyone without cost, so please do not feel pressured to give!
