To and From, or Into Our Father’s Open Arms
It may be the most overlooked moment of deep horror in all of the Bible. Not the eating of the fruit itself. Plenty of horror there, but it’s not overlooked. Rather it was the response of our first parents to … Continue reading

The Scandal of the Gospel in a Graceless World
All of us, both within and without the church, face the temptation of being legalists when dealing with others’ sins against us, and antinomians when dealing with our sins against others. We want those we have perceived to have wronged … Continue reading

The Moral of the Story- On the Obedience of Christ
Everybody loves Jesus. Marxists love Jesus, because He was such a radical revolutionary. Unitarians love Jesus, because He befriended the social outcasts. Liberals love Jesus because, well, because He was liberal. Even some conservatives love Jesus, because He was so … Continue reading

Run Away, Run Away- The Wisdom of Fleeing Temptation
There’s a reason he’s called the rich, young fool. Though he was wise enough to ask the right person, Jesus, his question, “what must I do to inherit eternal life” he was fool enough to claim, after Jesus reminded him … Continue reading

What Love Is This? The World’s Hatred of the God of Love
The simplicity of God is a doctrine that provides a rather useful fence. The perfections of God are, of course, worthy of our excitement. Their infinity is, of course, staggering. But the simplicity of God is that place where these … Continue reading

Name It Blame It, or, Pinning Failures on Failure
Some time ago I published an Ask RC podcast titled, “What’s wrong with the enneagram?” One of my (many) concerns is that as with so many other so called assessment tests, we always face the temptation to excuse our sin … Continue reading
What should I expect from my local church?
It is an easy thing to grumble about the marketing mentality of so many local churches. Rather than taking direction from God’s Word we take it from sociological studies, surveys, and sage savants. What we often miss is that churches … Continue reading
