Painting Pinterest in a Positive Light

Last updated on: April 15, 2013 at 8:09 am   By Jewel Evans

Let’s pretend, for a moment, that it’s 5 o’clock on a weeknight and you have no idea what to do for dinner. If you’re like me, this describes you on any given night of the week. I absolutely love to cook, don’t get me wrong, but sometimes I don’t do a good job of menu planning and all that entails. Lucky for me, there’s Pinterest. With a simple search, such as blackbean burgers, there are more recipes than I know... Read more

Why You Should Be Wary of Christian Music for Kids

Last updated on: April 12, 2013 at 8:07 am   By Amy Lepine Peterson

A few days ago, I shared a list of some of the best available Christian music for kids. Although we play the cds I wrote about constantly in the car, because my kids request them, I do still have some reservations about my kids listening to too much “Christian” music. Learning Scripture out of context Many albums written for children are created to foster Scripture memory. With titles like “Hide ‘Em in Your Heart” and “Hidden In Your Heart,” these... Read more

The “Gosnell Media Blackout” is Really Just Human Nature, Also Horrible

Last updated on: April 12, 2013 at 6:49 am   By S. L. Whitesell

I’m already tired of hearing about the “media blackout” of the abortionist Kermit Gosnell’s murder trial. Can we impose a blackout on covering the blackout already? It has been over a week since LifeNews hyperbolically declared that NPR had finally caught up to the local papers and “some stories from the Associated Press.” The Philadelphia Inquirer may not be a national media outlet, but it’s hardly the Podunk Weekly. And you may recognize the Associated Press as the newswire agency... Read more

‘Who Are You Sleeping With?’ My Conversation with Timothy Keller

Last updated on: April 12, 2013 at 6:47 am   By Derek Rishmawy

So, I was talking to Tim Keller this week when the topic of sex came up…no, wait, that’s not right. Let’s reframe that without me lying. I managed to snag a ticket to the Gospel Coalition’s 2013 National Conference this week and sit in on a breakout session on the subject of revival by Dr. Keller. He gave a brief recap of some of the material in his recent book Center Church: Doing Balanced, Gospel-Centered Ministry in Your City for those... Read more

Who Do We Blame for the Emergency Contraceptives-for-Kids Ruling?

Last updated on: April 11, 2013 at 8:03 am   By S. L. Whitesell

The New York Times headline on Friday likely caused readers to perform a Maggie Smith-esque double take: “Judge Overturns Age Limit to Buy a Contraceptive.” That’s a weird way of saying it, so to limit exposure to the seven or eight print subscribers the Times still enjoys, the online headline was a little different: “Judge Strikes Down Age Limits on Morning-After Pill.” A little better, but still — what? How does a single federal judge in New York City make... Read more

The Kiddy Pool: Machiavelli and the Pruning Parent

Last updated on: April 30, 2013 at 7:53 pm   By Erin Wyble Newcomb

Every week in The Kiddy Pool, Erin Newcomb confronts one of many issues that parents must deal with related to popular culture. I have come to believe that the slippery slope, while fallacious when used in writing, applies to parenting. To put it more colloquially, give kids an inch, and they’ll stomp all over you for a mile. I don’t mean to say that I parent tyrannically, but that any exception to the reasonable, memorable, and well-established household behavioral standards requires... Read more
