Dealing With Church Conflict

“This is the second post dealing with division in the church. The first post dealt with the sin that leads to division in the church–a lack of love for our fellow saints and therefore a lack of love for Christ. This post deals with the practical implications of this to all church conflicts, including how…”

A Sure Sign Of Division

“Jesus made very clear that if we do not love our brothers and sisters in Christ, we really don’t love Him. It is impossible to love God and simultaneously hate the Church or anyone in it–especially the leaders God has placed over the local church. In this post, we will see how grave of a…”

How Should Christians Approach Suicide?

“Like depression, suicide is a major problem in our society and our churches. The Gospel gives hope strong enough to overcome suicidal thoughts, so we must counter the lies of suicidal thoughts with the truths of Scripture.”

The Masculinity Of Corporate Singing: A Call To Christian Men To Sing

“The most masculine, powerful, and godly thing you can do is bellow out your praises to God. If you fancy yourself a warrior, sing boldly to God in your bassy, baritone, and tenor voices. If you are like Gideon and are more of a coward, muster the strength you have and roar out God's praises. Fill the room of gathered saints with the thunderings of your lower register. Demonstrate for the women and children how happy you are to be in the house of God, that Yahweh reigns over the earth, and that our songs hail His mighty victory.”

7 Ways To Blaspheme God’s Word (Part 2)

“while the world around us would seek to whittle womanhood down from a mighty redwood to a flimsy toothpick by clinging to the Lord's Word in Scripture, I believe we can have a revival of femininity and a resurgence of Christian women.“

7 Ways To Blaspheme God’s Word (Part 1)

“What does the Bible communicate about womanhood? How will that impact her in marriage? And, how passionate is God about these things? Would He even call it “blasphemy” when Biblical womanhood is ignored or spurned? Join us as we explore this concept in Titus 2:3-5.”

How To Make America Great Again In Nine Biblical Steps

“if you want a Christian culture, forget American politics. That is as fruitful as drowning yourself under a waterfall. Instead, if you wish for Massachusetts, California, Washington, Nevada, Montana, and all the rest of these fifty states, to bow the knee to the Lord Jesus Christ, then put down your politics, lay down your mail-in ballots, and grab a shovel. We have work to do!”

Division Is The Point.

“Perhaps if we would preach like Jonah, weep like Jeremiah, if we would repent like Nebuchadnezzar, or stand firm against God's enemies like Samson; If we would worship as ardently as David, or employ wisdom like his son Solomon; If we would be as industrious in our society as Daniel and Joseph; if we would chase after the whoring gentiles like Hosea; and if we, who are filled with the same Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the dead, would live like the apostles - going from town to town declaring freedom in the risen Christ - then I believe we will see this nation turning back to God. “

It’s “Very Good” To Be A Woman

“Dear sisters, daughters, mothers, and wives, embrace the beautiful, glorious, and domestic calling God has given you. Rejoice amid the mess and the stress of a burgeoning home. Find joy and laughter when the markers decorate your walls, the spaghetti gets flung on your ceiling, or when the task of doing it all seems too big for you. It is too big for you, in your own strength. That much is true. But let that truth remind you of a better truth. You are needy in your role because the Lord designed you to ever be in need of Him!”

Pride Flags and Power Plays

“When a nation plants its flag firmly into the ground, it openly and audaciously proclaims its dominion over that soil. It screams, "We are the ones in charge!" It heralds that our power and our might reign supreme on this soil. And if you do not like that, grab your guns and try to take our flag away from us if you can.

This is precisely why the rainbow-colored flag of deviance and pride must come (and in Christ will come) to a bitter end.”

It’s “Very Good” To Be A Man

“Men, do not accept a perverted vision of masculinity that a godless world has painted for you. Also, do not accept the effeminate and neutered manhood that some wimpy sects of Christianity are peddling to you. Instead, stand up tall and be a man. Take responsibility for yourself and your people. Love your wife like Christ loves His Church, stand for truth, be brave, rule well in your home and in your town, and bring the fear of God into every sector that you preside over. And above all else, do everything you can, with all the strength and vigor you can muster, to the glory of your God and the advancement of His Kingdom. That is a vision worth celebrating and imitating. And that is the kind of men our nation, churches, and families desperately need.”

Marriage And The Trinity

“if the enemy hates God, and everything that reminds Him of God, then is it any wonder that he so despicably detests marriage, since it is dripping with the divine? Marriage was not patterned off our opinions, and it does not exist to advance our preferences. Instead, God made marriage to reflect His holy, loving, intimate, joyful, and sacrificial love that He has eternally cherished among the members of the Godhead.”

What The Bible Says About Marriage.

“Manhood and womanhood are under attack. Marriage and sexuality are under attack. And every institution, from Hollywood to the District of Columbia, is aimed at perverting our children. It is high time that the church says, enough! And it is high time we begin fighting for the only institution God called “Very good.”

Family Worship As Warfare

“your children are being prepared no matter what you do. They are either being intentionally prepared for a worshipful life in the service of Christ or a worshipless life in the service of self. Your home will prepare them for something; what is it?”

Ten Reasons To Share Christ Publicly

“When Jesus gave the great commission, He didn't limit His authority and dominion to a church building or require His followers to only make disciples from a gathered flock. Instead, he told us to go into the world and disciple the nations. This involves getting outside our buildings and comfort zones, announcing the message to outsiders, and being ready to answer any objections they have until they cut us off, curse us out, or are converted unto Him. “

Don’t Leave Well Enough Alone: Why I Am Preaching At Satancon

“We are not afraid to go and tell anyone about the Gospel because we know the Son of Man will be victorious. We know His Kingdom will advance and the gates of hell will not stand. When human history is complete, every tongue will declare His triumph, and every knee will bow before the Lord of glory. Far from retreating from an event like Satan Con, we are rushing towards it. Not in hubris or pride, but to remind everyone who is there that Christ has already won!”

Bank Collapses & Good Investments

“As the world around us is reeling from another bank collapse, the threats of war, stock market downturns, recession, inflation, interest rate hikes, and an incompetent administration, remember Who is in control. We are not ultimately beholden to a schizophrenic market because our hope lies in the only one who can guarantee our survival.”
