First, this question is built on a broad, sweeping generalization. A true one, yes, but I’m not affirming either that all doctrinally sound Christians are cold, nor that all warm Christians are not doctrinally sound. That said, there is a … Continue reading

Of course the most important questions are those that help move us, by the power of the Holy Spirit, from being an unbeliever to being a believer. A better life now is just more judgment on the horrific eternity of … Continue reading

Smile, God Loves You
In one of his rare less gentle moments with a pen, my father once began an article in Tabletalk magazine this way, “Smile, God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. Unless your name is Esau.” While … Continue reading
