First Church of the Not So Bad
We are adepts not at fighting our sins but hiding them. We gather each Lord’s Day dressed in our smiles, share our praise reports and our health concerns, pat ourselves on our backs, and return home to our gross and … Continue reading

Ask RC- Why is the church so full of phonies?
It is my habit when asked “Why is the church…” to look for what is often the obvious answer, that the problem is people, and not at all exclusive to the church. This is certainly true in this case, that … Continue reading

Comments Off on Ask RC- Why is the church so full of phonies?

When I served as editor in chief of Tabletalk magazine I committed my share of gaffs. I received more than a few sweet natured but school-marmish notes about why this semi-colon should have been a colon, or why further was … Continue reading

Ask RC- Did Jesus suffer the Father’s wrath for all sinners, or just for the elect?
