Ask RC- Where is the church weakest today?

Posted on November 9, 2020 by RC

What worries you most about your ideological friends?

Posted on November 4, 2020 by RC

What worries you most about your ideological friends? The same thing that worries me most about me. We are overrun by the cowardice of paper prophets. These thundering heroes build a following and a reputation by denouncing with great vigor … Continue reading →

What is solo Christo?

Posted on October 26, 2020 by RC

Literally the Latin phrase simply means “Christ alone.” It is often written solus Christus and I know enough Latin to know I don’t know why. The Reformation, of course, built its message around five solas. Sola fide and sola scriptura … Continue reading →

Are we co-creators with God? My pastor said so in his sermon.

Posted on October 22, 2020 by RC

Yes, and no. First to the no. Theologians, who like to make distinctions, distinguish between God’s communicable attributes and His incommunicable attributes. The former are those which He can and does share with us, though of course in lesser degrees. … Continue reading →

What should I remember in the voting booth?

Posted on October 20, 2020 by RC

Posted on October 15, 2020 by RC

Ask RC- Was the Reformation necessary?

Posted on October 12, 2020 by RC

Yes. It may be easy to miss that truth when one considers all the seemingly random things that came together to bring the Reformation to pass. What if that thunderstorm had not re-routed Luther from law school to monkery? What … Continue reading →

Should American pastors preach warning us of our growing police state?

Posted on October 8, 2020 by RC

It is not at all unusual for us to defend our own peculiar perspective by painting our opponents in the worst possible light. There is genuine disagreement over whether political issues have any place in preaching. Those who stand opposed, … Continue reading →
