Public People, Private Lives

Is calling yourself a “Calvinist” sinful?
No. But it could be. The apostle Paul admonished the Corinthians for their party loyalty, as some there said, “I am of Paul,” others, “I am of Apollos and others “I am of Cephas.” Isn’t identifying as a Calvinist, or … Continue reading

Have You Heard?
Gossip, for all its destructive power, and the bounty of warning against it in the Bible, still carries with it an image as a cute or entertaining sin. We laugh at the town matriarch who is more effective at spreading … Continue reading

Black and White and Red All Over
What would you do, my father once wisely asked, if Jesus Christ Himself were to speak to you and make this promise- “I promise that nothing bad will ever happen to you again.”? Can you imagine? What would that do … 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

Smart is Not a Fruit
Leave it to Reformed people to miss the point. When Paul describes the body of Christ as a body, part of which includes hands, ears, and so forth, we are quick to mark our territory — we are the brain … Continue reading

Expunged
I received a notice in the mail that, despite being from our local government, was most welcome. The local court let me know that my previous conviction of felony OWI has been expunged. As far as the state of Indiana … Continue reading
