The Single Soul of the Five Solas of the Reformation

Posted on July 24, 2026 by RC

Is there anything wrong with drums and guitars in church?

Posted on July 20, 2026 by RC

I am frankly astonished that the worship wars rattle on. The army of praise choruses, light shows and worship bands have left the Psalms, the organ, and our father’s hymnal decimated. The conflict, as with most conflicts, was utterly unnecessary. … Continue reading →

The Other Scandal of the Evangelical Mind

Posted on July 14, 2026 by RC

When the world considers the evangelical church they don’t conclude we’re overrun with intellectual rigor. They don’t consider us the sharpest knives in the drawer. God commands us to love Him with all of our minds. He gives us, His … Continue reading →
