The Pharisee Pharisees and the Way Back Home

Posted on April 21, 2026 by RC

Dear Exvangelicals, I’m probably the last person you’d want to hear from, an old school evangelical. I’m more conservative politically than the most ardent President Trump fanboy. Reformed, head of my home, still affirming that marriage is only between one … Continue reading →

We Are Family: All My Brothers and Sisters and Me

Posted on April 17, 2026 by RC

Conservative Christians seeking a way to encapsulate our most fundamental political commitments came up with “family values.” We vote “family values.” We support “family values” candidates.

Knot Kneading & Not Needing to Know: Me & the Sanford Mess

Posted on March 26, 2026 by RC

The First Casualty: All That We Don’t Know About Iran

Posted on March 19, 2026 by RC

What I remember most about the first days of the COVID crisis was the sense that I had no idea whom to believe. I was skeptical of claims made the government because, well, they were claims made by the government. … Continue reading →

Surviving Incredulity World: Why What We Don’t Know Hurts Us

Posted on February 26, 2026 by RC

Lies are a double-edged sword. Not only are they designed to get us to believe things that are not true, but they encourage us to not believe things that are true. Every lie borrows its credibility from some other truth. … Continue reading →

Gently Restore: The Lost Art of Biblical Correction

Posted on February 24, 2026 by RC

Posted on February 16, 2026 by RC

Embracing Righteous Anger, While Maintaining Peace

Posted on February 3, 2026 by RC

“Judge not” is surely that text in all of Scripture that is most misunderstood outside the kingdom. Among believers we misunderstand Paul’s admonition to the Ephesians, “Be angry but do not sin” (Ephesians 4:26). We soundly conclude from this text … Continue reading →

Defending Loose Cannons, and Trump’s Loose Tongue

Posted on December 18, 2025 by RC

The charge of hypocrisy sticks. Perhaps because we are all worse than our own standard. We rebuke the other guy, only to find that we too are guilty. The only good news I can offer is that it works both … Continue reading →
