May You Live in Interesting Times

Chilling With the Scornful
It has long been my contention that the rampant skepticism about all things supernatural among the Reformed crowd is driven more by modernist assumptions than it is exegesis. We’re in a bit of a pickle, wanting to be true to … Continue reading

Does God send hurricanes?
Of course He does. How strange that such should even be a question. But of course, He also sends such strange questions. There is nothing that comes to pass that overpowers God, that He did not plan from before all … Continue reading

A Higher Power
It is not a difficult thing to discern the nature of someone else’s god. Some people carry their religion on their sleeve, advertising their spiritual commitments on bumper stickers or t-shirts. You can tell the Amish by their clothing, even … Continue reading

The Grace of Scandal
The RC Sproul Jr. Principle of Hermeneutics can be quite helpful. It affirms “Whenever you see someone in the Bible doing something really, really stupid, do not say to yourself, ‘How can he be so stupid?’ Instead say to yourself, … Continue reading

Ask RC- What is apostasy and how does it relate to perseverance of the saints?
There are two errors to make on this question, and a razor’s edge to walk to answer it correctly. Just as the Bible teaches both divine sovereignty and human responsibility, so it also teaches both that apostasy is real, and … Continue reading
