Culture Wars, Religion, and Today's Turmoil

Kevin DeYoung's recent post, "Thinking Theologically about Islam," lays out helpful baseline commitments that Christians are urged to accept and agree upon.  They fall under the headings of "identity," "faith" and "welcome."

The Latest from Trump

I appreciate Russell Moore's thoughtful analysis of and objection to Donald Trump's recent statement that the USA should close the border to all Muslims.

Remembering Officer Garrett Swasey


Police officer Garrett Swasey lost his life seeking to protect and defend others on Nov. 27 when he responded to a call to assist law enforcement on the scene at a Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood clinic where a gunman was on a violent rampage.  Officer Swasey was also a co-pastor of his church, Hope Chapel, where he delivered his last sermon on Nov. 15, including a poignant call to consider Christ and not delay:  don't assume you've got tomorrow--tomorrow may not come.  See Jordan Standridge's overview of Swasey's sermon.
