Music Matters: Naming Names in Shai Linne’s “Fal$e Teacher$”

Last updated on: April 30, 2013 at 8:03 pm By Matthew Linder

Each Tuesday in Music Matters, Matthew Linder explores the intersections of music, culture and faith. Exploring the controversy over Shai Linne’s “Fal$e Teacher$”. When Shai Linne’s Lyrical Theology Part 1 dropped at the beginning of April one song stood out, “Fal$e Teacher$”. In the final hook of the song, Shai does the unthinkable; naming the names of twelve different pastors (Joel Osteen, Creflo Dollar, Benny Hinn, TD Jakes, Joyce Meyer, Paula White, Fred Price, Kenneth Copland, Robert Tilton, Eddie Long, Juanita...

Listening to Doubt: What Music Can Teach Us about Apostasy

Last updated on: April 30, 2013 at 7:56 pm By Nick Rynerson

Doubt is the shadow to the light of faith and repentance. Doubt in the Christian life has been around since Eve wondered whether God really didn’t want her to eat the fruit; it showed up when Abraham didn’t believe that God would give him a son and again when Thomas just couldn’t believe that Jesus had risen from the dead. And although orthodoxy reminds us that God defeats doubt and will eventually remove all remnants of it, there are cases where... Read more

Mad at Mark Driscoll? Blame Solomon.

Last updated on: April 30, 2013 at 7:57 pm By Derek Rishmawy

According to the Bible, King Solomon, the son of David, was one of, if not the, wisest men, apart from Jesus, who ever lived. (1 Kings 4:30) He’s got a few books of the Bible traditionally ascribed to him (Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon), and even Jesus said he was a wise fellow. (Matthew 12:42) Which is why I found a couple of off-hand comments about him by evangelical writers Mary DeMuth and Matthew Paul Turner surprising and bit off-putting.... Read more

Why Does God Care about My Sex Life?

Last updated on: April 29, 2013 at 6:30 am By Derek Rishmawy

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote a little piece for Christ and Pop Culture about a Q&A session with Tim Keller at The Gospel Coalition conference. I asked about revival, and among other things, Keller said something about sex and the complex nature of doubt. Given that what he said was fairly conservative, had to do with sex and doubt, and, in all fairness, could have been reported more clearly by me, the unsurprising result was a lot of pushback—some legitimate...

The Cussin’ Anchor-Man is Doing Okay

Last updated on: April 26, 2013 at 9:59 am By Brad Williams

A.J. Clemente had a bad first day at work. But then, who hasn’t? Apparently, his nerves over going live for the first time, mixed with his inability to to pronounce the names of some marathon winners, led him to swear. He dropped the f-bomb on live TV, followed by the s-bomb. After that, the newscast becomes an exercise in complete awkwardness as his co-host tries to keep it together. You can see it here, the offending words bleeped out for... Read more

Scouting for Anorexic Models Is A (Horrific) Real Thing That Happens

Last updated on: April 30, 2013 at 8:02 pm By Lauren Rambo

In the 80s and early 90s, the Supermodel made her debut. Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Linda Evangelista ruled the catwalk with their tall, slim, and muscular figures. Then came Kate Moss, who changed the face of modeling. Not only was she considered short by fashion standards (5’7″) but she was wafer thin, a significant physical change from the amazonian supermodels from a few years earlier. She ushered in a new look of “heroin chic” where hollowed faces and protruding... Read more

The Moviegoer: Tracking the Legacy of Tragic Secrets in The Place Beyond the Pines

Last updated on: May 1, 2013 at 6:51 pm By Nick Olson

Each week in The Moviegoer, Nick Olson examines new and upcoming films. An essential image in Derek Cianfrance’s latest film, The Place Beyond the Pines, is of roughened, local-star stuntman Luke Glanton (Ryan Gosling) sitting idly on his motorcycle at a traffic light intersection, looking up at the looming TrustCo Bank. It’s one of the few pauses during the film’s first hour, when Luke is often flashing like lightning across each scene. We’re not exactly privy to what’s running through Luke’s... Read more
