The national conversation over Ma’Khia Bryant’s shooting: A call for responding with reason

Last updated on: April 23, 2021 at 5:10 am By Jim Denison

While the world waited in anticipation for the final verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial on Tuesday, sixteen-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant was shot and killed by police in Columbus, Ohio. Hours later, the body cam footage was released and appears to show that the officer delivered the fatal blow moments before Bryant, who was holding a knife, could do the same to another young woman. Do those circumstances alter the tragedy of Bryant losing her life at such a young age?... Read more

Carrie Underwood and CeCe Winans steal the show at the 2021 ACM Awards: How excellence leads to gospel opportunities

Last updated on: April 22, 2021 at 5:05 am By Jim Denison

The attention of the nation has been understandably fixed on the aftermath of Derek Chauvin’s trial and the jury’s verdict that he is guilty of all three charges. As such, other significant events in our culture have largely gone overlooked. And while I’m not sure I would normally classify the Academy of Country Music Awards as an event of significance, this year’s show qualifies. The ACM made an effort to highlight diversity within their industry, tabbing Mickey Guyton as the... Read more

Derek Chauvin found guilty on all three counts: Two potential dangers against which we must guard

Last updated on: April 21, 2021 at 5:37 am By Jim Denison

Almost eleven months after George Floyd’s death, a jury of his peers found Derek Chauvin guilty of second- and third-degree murder as well as second-degree manslaughter. Sentencing will occur in eight weeks, but his time in prison has already begun. As one might expect, reactions to the result have varied. George Floyd’s brother Philonise described it as “a day of celebration” while others, such as Rev. Jesse Jackson, stated that the result is “a relief, but the celebration is premature.”... Read more

How will the Derek Chauvin trial end? Why we must pray before we post

Last updated on: April 20, 2021 at 5:25 am By Jim Denison

Closing arguments were heard yesterday in the trial of Derek Chauvin following three weeks of testimony. It is now up to the jury to decide whether or not Chauvin is guilty of the charges for which he stands accused in relation to his role in the death of George Floyd: second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder, and second-degree manslaughter. For many, Chauvin’s guilt was decided as soon as the video of the tragic event went viral shortly after Floyd’s death on... Read more

Pro-life activist was nearly aborted: The power of changed lives and encouragement from one of the greatest sermons of the twentieth century

Last updated on: April 15, 2021 at 5:07 am By Jim Denison

Christianity Today is profiling a woman who was nearly aborted in 1989. Claire Culwell’s mother had an abortion at twenty weeks that killed Claire’s sibling. Soon thereafter, she discovered that she was still pregnant (she had not known she was carrying twins). She returned for a second abortion, but it never took place due to complications from the first. Claire is now a wife, the mother of four children, and an activist for the cause of life. In 1989, there... Read more
