After last weeks podcast I wanted to take some time and discuss again the topic of Christianity and anxiety. A question was brought up during the episode that I thought was worth addressing. The question being “why do you think the church has had such a hard time with Christians who suffer from clinical anxiety […]
Words matter, folks. Words matter to the point where a single missing word created the Wicked Bible, which infamously commands Christians to commit adultery. Obviously, that wasn’t intentional. But even unintentional errors show us we need to be careful with our words, especially in theology. There’s a fantastic contemporary hymn written by Keith Getty and […]
A non-Christian friend of mine once asked me if atheists were better people than Christians because they don’t need someone to tell them what is right and wrong. I’ve seen several atheists make this claim, with greater or lesser degrees of condescension and ridicule. I didn’t have an answer at the time, but after giving […]
Steve closes up the computer, feeling that all too familiar dejection and shame, the same emotions he always experiences after he has succumbed to the temptation to look at pornography.

If you want to get an American church-goer squirming, call Christianity the Christian Religion. Ask an evangelical today “Are you religious?” and nine […]
What is Dispensationalism? Dispensationalism is an interpretative system used to understand the progression of revelation throughout the entire Bible. Like any major system used to interpret the Bible, its proponents differ on many points of theology, and as a result, clumping dispensationalists into one box is unfair. My goal is to outline the most common […]
Baptism has been something under debate since before the New Testament cannon was fully put together. Who is supposed to be baptized? What does baptism mean/cause? Should we baptize by immersion or sprinkling? The point of this post is to discuss who should be baptized, and as the article suggests, defend the view of Credo […]
