Kathy Lesnoff: A Story of Grace and Redemption
Kathy was not always fighting the pro-life battle. In fact, she once worked for one of the largest abortion clinics in the Midwest. Through a series of miracles, Kathy came to faith in Christ.

Compromising Truth, Partnering with Unrighteousness, and Promoting Division… for what?
It is easy to claim you stand under God’s truth, but the real test of faithfulness comes when God’s Word is being contradicted and you are called upon to act on the courage of your convictions.

Suffering, Challenge, and the Next Generation
God gives to all parents a two-fold charge: We must be faithful with what the Lord has given to us, and we have a duty to teach and encourage the next generation to do the same. This is a great challenge that can only be accomplished by God’s grace. Even so, we do and should ask the question, “How can we best teach and prepare our children?”

The Incredible Shrinking Me
We are all infected from birth with an insatiable desire to be somebody. Even shyness is but an ironic twist on that desire. The Scriptures call it “the pride of life,” and names it as one of three categories under which all sins fall. Our hunger to be recognized or known colors everything we do.

We are now in mid-2017, the 500th anniversary of the epochal and world-changing Reformation. By revisiting the teaching of that era, we can gain a renewed hope for the modern evangelical Church, the rightful heir to that rich theology and history.

“Holy Sexuality:” The Quest for Clarity in Today’s Age of Confusion
Most everyone would agree that sexual ethics is an area of confusion in today’s age. Can men become women? Is homosexuality really that bad? Can I change my gender? Does sex mean anything, or is it just a bodily function?
