Our Prideful Humility, or Inheriting the Wind
Tim Keller’s excellent The Prodigal God not only potently draws our attention to the oft-missed second half, the story of the elder brother, but it potently answers a question I have long struggled with. What are the implications of the … Continue reading

Enthroned in the Praises of Israel

Ask RC- Why is the church so full of pretense?
I’m no behaviorist, but I don’t need to be to understand this truth- that which you punish you get less of, and what you reward you get more of. We don’t like punishment, and seek to avoid it. We do … Continue reading

Guarding Our Feeling Life
I, though if pushed against a wall will come in as a dichotomist, have no special quarrel with trichotomists. I believe we are bodies and souls. But I get why some say we’re bodies, souls and spirits. There are times, … Continue reading

It doesn’t happen often, but it had happened. A book written for businessmen had jumped a fence and become something of a universal bestseller. Like The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People before it, and Good to Great after it, … Continue reading
