The Christians who are resolved to make a mark for Christ in this world must be commended for their resolution. You need only open your eyes for a second to see the futility and folly all around us. Amid that folly, our goal is to see salvation spring up from the ground. We anticipate the … Continue reading Aim at Heaven
The Brave New World Says Your Children Don’t Belong To You Anymore
The spirit of the age is not content with you simply forgetting the truth. You must be educated in falsehood. You must say the pronouns. You must speak the error. You must not worship your God and you must worship the false god being presented to you. This debased mind has wormed its way into … Continue reading The Brave New World Says Your Children Don’t Belong To You Anymore
He Is No Stagnant God
Too often we imagine a stagnant God. We assume that if we come to him all will be bubbling streams and chirping birds on an English countryside. But this is far from what Scripture tells us about our Consuming Fire. Jesus shows us the Father. And there he is one moment touching lepers; the next … Continue reading He Is No Stagnant God
Eleanor Update: Thanks Be to God
We thank you for your prayers for little Eleanor. The Lord has answered them, and quick. In the wake of all the prayers going up, Eleanor began breathing smoothly with high oxygen levels. They have moved her to heavy flow (very good step) and are even weaning her off that with good results. Feeding tube … Continue reading Eleanor Update: Thanks Be to God
Be Converted, O Canada
One year ago, Canada established a law that bans conversion therapy, that is a practice or service designed to get men (who are thinking and acting like women) to think of themselves as men and conduct themselves sexually as men; and the same goes for women (who are thinking and acting like men). You may … Continue reading Be Converted, O Canada
That We Would Ride World-Shaking Horses
"Where our fathers, peering into the future, saw gleams of gold, we see only the mist, white, featureless, cold and never moving. The thought at the back of all this negative spirituality is really one forbidden to Christians. They, of all men, must not conceive spiritual joy and worth as things that need to be … Continue reading That We Would Ride World-Shaking Horses
Food For Your Faith
It indeed is hard to renounce our faith in the static and fixed nature of the created world. You don't have to look far to find a man who will say, "There are only so many fish in the sea." Or, "a loaf of bread can only be cut into so many slices." But the … Continue reading Food For Your Faith
5 Magic Arts for Raising Middle Schoolers
So there you are, having just gotten the toddler discipline thing under your belt. You have trained tiny Tim to say "please" and "thank you." You have taught him to eat all of the food on his plate. But, just about the time you had a rhythm going, the kid grew. He's now 9 years … Continue reading 5 Magic Arts for Raising Middle Schoolers
Like a Knocking Widow
One of the bigger slices of humble pie we have to eat is that we don't do nearly enough with the gifts we are given. Now this is humble pie, not condemnation pie. You're not permitted to eat any cursed-on-a-tree pie. Jesus finished that one off for you. But we do have to face up … Continue reading Like a Knocking Widow
A Vineyard Which Ye Planted Not
One of the shocking things about grace is how uneven it is. Man can keep his wits about him when observing the soda machine. One dollar in, one soda out. Two dollars in, two sodas out. It seems fair enough. Even if a man doesn't have a dollar, and subsequently, no soda, he can still … Continue reading A Vineyard Which Ye Planted Not
