While tyrannical governors may have been the norm during COVID-19, it is always a bit of a surprise when politicians find a new low they can sink to. A recent act of authoritarianism in New Mexico serves as a blatant reminder of this statist phenomenon. Citing an “epidemic of gun violence,” the New Mexico governor […]
The Problem With Categories
As we engage in political discourse among our own camps, we find ourselves automatically shifting from one category to another. A hearty discussion on “political power” would be incredibly productive among Right-wing friends who understand the nature and purpose of such a thing. Outside of these like-minded friends, the discussion devolves very quickly. The Right […]
Lies, Narratives, and Selling Your Children’s Graves
Transgenderism is an incredibly violent phenomenon. Genital mutilation is labeled “gender-affirming care,” while the mainstream media constantly attempts to frame resistance to anti-trans legislation as a matter of “survival.” From self-harm to self-deception, the transgender community is plagued by depravity and violence. Yet every step of the way, the Biden administration has sought to hamper […]
Apostate Nationalism – What About Fake Christians?
In the Christian political sphere, this is a somewhat common question. What do we do about fake Christians within the Christian Nationalist movement? I have no doubt that some of the people asking this question mean well, but the nature of the question is one that is easily abused by some that intend to misunderstand. […]
Musings on the Dilemma of Testimonies
Traditions are outward expressions of worldview and are vital to preserving culture and civilization. It is not a stretch to say that without them, there are no roots; no moor anchoring us to our fundamental beliefs. In short, there is no established core, and we can shape (in the case of our faith) Christianity into […]
Transgenderism And Violence – A Truly Monstrous Narrative
On March 27, 2023, a woman identifying as a transgender gay man shot and killed six Christians in a school building. The school was associated with the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA) and was specifically targeted by the shooter due to the rejection of her transgender identity. Audrey Hale was shot and killed by the […]
The Unconscionable Life
Elijah woke from his slumber, his morning alarm ringing in his ears. It was Wednesday morning, and the man briefly contemplated the cost of calling off work today before deciding to rise out of bed. His family needed him, after all. Elijah reached out to the nightstand and turned the alarm off on his iPhone. […]
Machen vs Horton – Christian Nationalism
John Gresham Machen was a genius. His book, “Christianity and Liberalism,” contained such keen insights that it holds painfully true today. Machen was able to analyze and dismantle everything that made liberalism tick, leaving no room for anything other than Christianity. Yet it seems that some of his assessments, particularly as they relate to the […]
Biblical Critical Theory: [Review]
To start, I want to acknowledge the two groups of people who may be reading this review. In the first group, I am sure quite a few people have automatically dismissed this book based on the subject. In the second group, I am also quite sure that some people saw the name Tim Keller on […]
Understanding God When You Are Feeling Down
One of the most prevalent issues facing the Church is the seeming insistence on forming God into what we want Him to be instead of how He has declared Himself to be. Every person on earth has days when they are feeling down. Perhaps we feel our shortcomings from God’s glory especially strong that day, […]
