The movement to normalize homosexuality is not just asking people to affirm this lifestyle, it’s demanding it. Your objections mean very little to homosexual advocates who believe their sexual preference should be more than tolerated-it should be celebrated. But this...
A new report by the Evangelicals Council for Financial Accountability says that the government’s attempts to regulate the political involvement and speech of 501(c)(3) groups, particularly churches, is ineffective. A combination of factors, such as the vagueness of laws, inconsistent...
Pastors, your church needs you to be engaged—fully engaged—in the issues people are facing every day. Maybe you are not personally facing these issues, but they might be. If congregants come to you for help and advice and all you...
You know how conservatives are always warning against non-discrimination laws that include sexual orientation and gender identity language? We try to communicate that not only are such laws unnecessary, but also pose a threat to other freedoms. For example, they...
Aside from killing a child, abortion carries life-long consequences. I am guilty of being too focused on the unborn and forgetting the scars a woman will carry as a result of abortion. In no way am I diminishing the loss...
I don’t know exactly how long I’ve been saying this, but I know it’s been a few years. I wasn’t alone in declaring this truth, but I was among the minority willing to state it publicly. I was ridiculed and...
An LGBT activist group called DOJ Pride would like for all DOJ employees to not just accept the homosexual lifestyle, but to affirm and support it in a vocal way. As they made clear, “silence will be interpreted as disapproval.”...
The question has been asked “how does same-sex ‘marriage’ hurt anyone?” It’s one of those deceptive arguments designed to emphasize personal narratives over smart public policy and facts in the marriage debate. After all, if it doesn’t “hurt” anyone else, or keep anyone from living their heterosexual life, surely it can’t be wrong.
I continue to be amazed at the number of people who tell me their pastor never talks about abortion or marriage from the pulpit. As if those topics were not biblical moral issues deeply entrenched in the Gospel. The excuses...
I intentionally waited to share my thoughts on the SCOTUS rulings from last week. Did you see all those articles that flooded newsfeeds and blogs? I perused over a hundred in two days myself. But the press is slowing down...
I unashamedly believe that pastor’s must not simply take a position on the critical issues facing our culture, but must be ready and willing to stand up and speak up. It is no longer adequate or acceptable to merely espouse...
One of the biggest problems facing our culture has nothing to do with the actual biology and sexual orientation of people. As we all know, biology is formed before we are born, and sexual orientation is intricately linked to it....
Dr. Maureen Condic, Ph.D., an Associate Professor of Neurobiology and Anatomy at the University of Utah and obtained her Ph.D. from University of California, Berkeley, recently testified before an U.S. Senate sub-committee on the science of fetal pain. Her testimony...
Some prefer to take the quiet approach to the marriage issue. They want to “speak with their actions” rather than engage in meaningful dialogue or use words that others would understand. Hey, I’m all for living a life that shows others what I am about. I do that by being in church every Sunday, celebrating Christmas and Easter rather than...
