Buckle Up

Posted on November 2, 2023 by RC

Blood in the Streets

Posted on October 20, 2023 by RC

How prone we are to miss the drama. The tyranny of the urgent, the plainness of our patterns, and our propensity to look inward rather than outward all push us to regard our callings, our surroundings, and our souls as … Continue reading →

The Unbearable Oughtness of Being Or, Postmodern Pharisees

Posted on October 10, 2023 by RC

The appeal of ethical relativism is rather plain to see. If there is no right and wrong then I can’t be convicted of any wrong. Ethical relativism allows me to write my own law, to edit on the fly, to … Continue reading →

Kids These Days

Posted on October 6, 2023 by RC

It’s a funny thing about slippery slopes—you can slide down them slowly. The principle behind the concept isn’t that you must move swiftly from here down to there if you have no moral brakes, but that you will move. A … Continue reading →

Should we be expecting plandemic, phase II?

Posted on August 28, 2023 by RC

While I haven’t the least trouble imagining that those in power are wicked enough to conspire against those over whom they rule, I do struggle to imagine they are smart enough to pull off many true conspiracies. Last night I … Continue reading →

Crying Wolf

Posted on August 24, 2023 by RC

It’s a simple enough exercise, good for getting to bedrock principles. I ask my ethics students if it is ever right to tell a lie. Roughly 90% of them answer in the affirmative, with almost all of them embracing the … Continue reading →

Where do theological liberals get grace wrong?

Posted on August 14, 2023 by RC

Taking Our Losses

Posted on August 10, 2023 by RC

I’m not as much of a twitter warrior, or I suppose X-man might now be the term, than I once was. The medium I love, with its character limitations driving us more toward the poetic than the precise and careful. … Continue reading →

Five Common Expressions I’ve Never Understood

Posted on August 8, 2023 by RC

Common sense may be more common than sense. There are any number of shorthand aphorisms in the world and in the church that shape our thinking, but don’t stand up to scrutiny, at least right away. Below are five common … Continue reading →
