    So what if President Trump didn’t recite the Apostles’ Creed?

    Evangelical leaders who voted for Donald Trump have been subjected to a fresh wave of mockery after he (and first lady Melania) failed to recite the Apostles’ Creed at the funeral for President George H. W. Bush.

  • When believers prefer spiritual fantasy to biblical truth

    When believers prefer spiritual fantasy to biblical truth

    Talk about reading whatever you want into the Bible. Talk about the sky is the limit.

  • Let’s help Lauren Daigle rather than condemn her

    Let’s help Lauren Daigle rather than condemn her

    We’ve seen this show before. A Christian recording artist (or author) becomes very popular, reaching beyond a typical Church audience and becoming popular in the larger world. He (or she) is then asked about homosexuality and fudges the answer. In turn, the Church quickly condemns (him or her). Can we do better this time around?

  • A boxer’s story of redemption and resurrection

    A boxer’s story of redemption and resurrection

    As I write these words, Adonis Stevenson, a 41-year-old professional boxer (and longtime champion) lies in critical condition after being knocked out in a fight Saturday night. So, in no way am I minimizing the brutality or danger of the sport. But in the midst of this violent, “sweet science,” there are some amazing stories to be told.

  • Twitter declares war on biology

    Twitter declares war on biology

    Men are different than women. Medical science understands this. Genetic studies understand this. Common sense understands this. But it appears Twitter no longer understands this.

  • Billy Graham’s prescient warning from 1962

    Billy Graham’s prescient warning from 1962

    Is America more family-friendly today than it was in the fairly recent past? Are we, in 2018, more innocent or less innocent than we were, say, in 1962?

  • If the radical left takes over, you can kiss your freedoms goodbye

    If the radical left takes over, you can kiss your freedoms goodbye

    The pattern is as predictable as it is obvious. When the left (especially the far left) talks about freedom, it means freedom for those who conform. When it talks about diversity, it means my way or the highway.

  • Where was God when California burned?

    Where was God when California burned?

    The magnitude of the recent California forest fires tragedy is staggering. As of this writing, the confirmed number of dead is more than 80 and the number still missing almost 700.

  • I Identify as a Jesus follower far more than as an older, white, male, conservative American

    I Identify as a Jesus follower far more than as an older, white, male, conservative American

    It’s true that I prefer the Republican Party platform to the Democratic Party platform, hands down. It’s true that I’m a moral conservative when it comes to social issues like abortion, homosexuality, gender distinctions, and the meaning of marriage. And that means that, demographically, I fit right in with the older, white, male, Republican crowd. But that is absolutely not my place of personal identity.

  • They were weeping their abortions, not shouting them

    They were weeping their abortions, not shouting them

    I've been doing daily talk radio for more than 10 years, which means well over 2,000 radio broadcasts. But the show on Tuesday, November 13, was different. In fact, I was barely able to keep myself composed as some of the callers wept and sobbed.
