Last updated on: March 4, 2013 at 7:24 pm By Erin Wyble Newcomb

It’s that dismissal of children, that nostalgic lens for regarding childhood as a state free from the weight of real fears or anxieties, that bothers me. Read more

Ben Affleck is Human! And Married!

Last updated on: March 4, 2013 at 2:08 pm By Guest Contributor

Like a lot of Americans, I sat down the other night to watch the Oscars for the first time in years with some friends. When I witnessed Seth MacFarlane’s talented-but-crude, sexist, I-love-myself-so-much performance, I was reminded why. At the end of the night though, when my hope for humanity was at its lowest, Ben Affleck injected this wonderful, impromptu moment of redemptive decency. In the middle of his breathless acceptance speech he thanked his wife, Jennifer Garner, but it wasn’t the... Read more

In Memoriam Arthur Machen: Celebrating 150 Years of Horror and Ecstasy

Last updated on: March 4, 2013 at 7:58 am By Geoffrey Reiter

Yesterday marked the 150th anniversary of the birth of Arthur Machen (1863-1947), an author who penned several influential works of supernatural horror and fantasy in his almost fifty-year writing career. While hardly a household name today, Machen can count among his past and present admirers H. P. Lovecraft, Stephen King, Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, Ray Bradbury, former British Poet Laureate John Betjeman, and popular movie director Guillermo del Toro. It is possible that his star may finally be on the... Read more

Where Should Christians Buy Clothes?

Last updated on: February 20, 2025 at 2:49 pm By Lauren Rambo

The relatively recent food movement toward local, responsibly produced, and unprocessed foods is one example of a broader social movement afoot. We’re moving beyond simply conspicuous consumerism. People realize that their purchases matter and that realization has naturally extended into how we buy clothes. And that leads to a certain tension. Should I buy only fair-trade clothing? Should I avoid fast fashion chains (like Forever 21 and H&M) that are said to use exploitative labor? Is it ever okay to spend... Read more

Notes from the Margins: Swords into Plowshares, AK-47s into Shovels

Last updated on: March 1, 2013 at 9:22 am By D.L. Mayfield

Each week in Notes From the Margins, D.L. Mayfield writes about the kingdom of God, marginalized people groups, and popular culture. There are a few books and movies that have played major roles in my spiritual formation. The book of 1 John. Missionary biographies. Mere Christianity. You get the picture. But one of the stranger ones was a cheaply made documentary that my new husband picked up at a punk rock show. I can still recall the first time I watched... Read more

Three Lessons We Can Learn from The Recent Tim Tebow and Louie Giglio Debacles

Last updated on: February 28, 2013 at 10:13 am By Brad Williams

You have probably already heard of the imbroglio created when Tim Tebow backed out of an Easter speaking engagement at the First Baptist Church of Dallas. When I saw the original announcement that Tebow made on Twitter, I knew immediately that it was going to be a big deal. FBC Dallas is one of the flagship churches of the Southern Baptist Convention, and SBC represents one of the denominations where Tim Tebow is held up as a shining example of... Read more
