“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.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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?”

“With the apparent decline of Christianity in America, it is tempting to despair. However, we need to look beyond our current circumstances to what God is doing throughout the world and over many generations. This post looks at how God is accomplishing His promise to Abraham (and by extension to us) through families, giving a…”

“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. “

“Who is the enemy of God’s people? In the Old Testament, only one man has the title of “the enemy of the Jews”. By studying him and his arch nemesis, we can see who our real enemy is and how to combat it.”

“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!”

“As we think of the various people featured throughout the Bible, it can be tempting to divide them into categories of good and evil. However, one does not have to read far into the lives of each of the so-called good people in the Old Testament to see that they were filled with flaws and…”

“Remember, while the world is ever eager to leap into the cacophony of another culture war battle, we must remember that God will take vengeance. Our job is not to repay evil with evil. We are not permitted to execute violence with violence; instead, we are called to overcome the evil in this world with good. “

This is a series of meditations on what Scripture teaches about each day of Holy Week, which goes from Palm Sunday until Easter, in which Christians everywhere mark the culmination of Jesus Christ’s ministry, His death on the cross, and His resurrection from the dead.

“The concept of the Sabbath is debated among Christians. Some all but disregard it by making Sunday no different than any other day except for attending church. Others go to the other extreme and strictly adhere to rules on what they can and cannot do on Sundays, bearing resemblance to the Pharisees of Jesus’s day.…“

“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.”

“The Church has often been unsure how to properly view the Old Testament Law, and opponents of Christianity often point out how Christians seem to arbitrarily obey some of the laws while ignoring others. This post addresses how Christians can approach the Mosaic Law in a manner consistent with the whole of Scripture, especially the…”

“Why does God sometimes feel distant? Why are there times and seasons when it seems like God is either aloof or further away from us than at others?”

“And while humanity has fallen far short of God's glorious standard, doing vile and shameless things to one another, God Himself would provide the cure. Unlike the modern world - which is attempting to cure the sin of "racism" with more hatred and division - God sent His one and only Son to heal this sin perfectly!”

“When we read of the various miracles in Scripture, the faith of the people involved is at the forefront of the narrative in many cases, which can lead us to think that not only miracles but all of the blessings of God are somehow dependent on the faith of the recipient. This has led to…”

“Every leader is a follower, but not all followers are leaders, so it is just as important (if not more important) to know how to be a good follower as a good leader. Effective followership does not mean blind obedience, but proactive effort to both embrace the leader’s vision and take initiative to advance it.…”

every Christian has a "trans" identity. In our sin, we were once TRANSgressors, but Jesus graciously TRANSferred us out of Satan's dominion and has TRANSplanted us into His family so that we can TRANSlate the Gospel into all languages and TRANSmit it to all people, TRANSforming this world into His image, until the glorious day when we TRANSition into new and incorruptible flesh to live forever with Him.

Depression is a formidable foe and claims the joy of more Christians that would ever feel comfortable saying. And yet, the Bible gives us ways that we can fight and overcome our depressions. Join us on the blog as we find out how.
