  • The Nashville Statement

    I ran across something called the “Nashville Statement” yesterday in my Facebook feed. It was posted by one of the many Christian blogs I follow so I checked it out. I was stunned to see that about 150 Christian leaders had developed a coherent statement on Biblical marriage, signing their names to it, and basically…

  • I got a little fired up today reading something on Facebook – imagine that! The blog Hello Christian reposted an article from the Huffington Post that basically said the “White Church” is the anti-Christ. Well, if there is such a thing as the “White Church,” I would agree that it is an anti-Christ, as would…

  • Divided We Fall

    I’m not a Calvinist, but the events in Charlottesville this past weekend proves at least to me that one of Calvin’s five points is correct: We are totally depraved. Let me say this from the outset – Christians, at least true Christians following Jesus Christ as His disciples, MUST condemn any act of hate no…

  • Impulse Control

    Before I get into the meat of this blog, let me say that this is intended just for believing Christians. If you are a seeker or non-believer, just move on because you are not held to the same standards by Jesus as we are. In fact, Paul clearly notes in 1 Corinthians 5:9-12 that Christians…

  • Inconsiderate People

    My home office window faces out to the street in front of our house. There’s a T intersection where a street meets the main road; the main road has no stop, but the intersecting street does. Every day I get to watch my knucklehead neighbors do their best not to run into each other because they…

  • Dear Ms. Griffin, First and foremost, know that I, like many of my Christian brothers and sisters, am praying for you. I understand you do not believe in God, but He believes in you! You may not want our prayers, but believe me, you need them. I get that you are a shock comedian. You’ve…

  • Guilt vs Regret

    I saw a meme on Facebook the other day that said something like “Have no regrets about your past; Embrace your today; and Look forward to your future.” I see a lot of sappy memes like this and a lot of them talk about letting go of regret. I’m going to throw you a curve…

  • Don’t Fall for It

    I was reading a blog the other day and the writer was talking about the level of discourse in our nation today. His conclusion was that we don’t really have a divide over politics, rather we have a much more serious problem. The writer said that Americans have gotten to a place where they just…

  • I know a lot of people. Well, actually I am acquainted with a lot of people. You don’t really know people that aren’t in your inner circle, do you? In fact, some that are in your inner circle you don’t know too well, either, because they’re too busy pretending to be something on the outside…
