Gloriously Ordinary

In the latest issue of Touchstone an article by Michael Horton levels a critical eye on the contemporary fad for churches to have extraordinary pastors. As an extraordinarily ordinary pastor I feel that pressure regularly. Many of the conferences marketed to pastors today are led by sparkling,...

The American church is awash in neo-gnosticism. We have become as subjective in our approach to truth as non-believers. I know what...

Mar 17, 2008
Russell Moore has written a disturbing post on a decision made by a Christian children's curriculum publisher to leave out the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ because it is too scary for pre-schoolers. This actually should come as no surprise. The sermons and lessons that people are...
