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

Unearned Praise
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

Voting Pro-Life?
While it is disheartening to me to see so many who self-identify as evangelicals open to the notion of voting for Democrats, the silver lining in that blue cloud is found here- that many evangelicals, aghast at this development as … Continue reading

Ask RC- Does God want everyone to be healthy and wealthy?
Yes, and no. I have often said that one thing the prosperity preachers have right that so many of us miss is this- because of Jesus our heavenly Father delights to bless us. What they have wrong is they have … Continue reading

Compassion on the Cheap
We all think in shorthand. That is, we carry with us sundry mental shortcuts that move us from one thought to another swiftly. These give us license to dismiss some ideas quickly so that we might be free to mull … Continue reading

Ask RC- Did Jesus suffer the Father’s wrath for all sinners, or just for the elect?
Just for the elect. This truth is hard for some people for what seems like a good reason- It shows God treating people unequally. If Christ’s atoning work covers only some people, doesn’t this somehow make God unfair, treating one … Continue reading
