I Am Conservative And I Am Not Voting Trump (Or Hillary)

Last updated on: October 19, 2016 at 12:08 pm By Bart Gingerich

by Taylor S. Brown I am an orthodox, conservative Protestant. I hold firmly to every word in the Apostles’, Nicene, and Chalcedonian Creeds. I locate myself within the socio-political tradition of Classical Conservatism, alongside such thinkers as Edmund Burke, G. K. Chesterton, and Richard John Neuhaus, among others. I think abortion is one of the worst atrocities in the modern world and I think religious liberty is one of the key safeguards to a free, democratic society. Needless to say,... Read more

The Heresy of Conscience

Last updated on: October 6, 2016 at 3:07 pm By Guest Contributor

by Jonathan Ashbach Evangelicals and the Infiltration of Moral Relativism If the current election cycle has disclosed a number of disturbing truths, one of the more disturbing is the pervasive manner in which moral relativism has infiltrated the evangelical church. It’s a shocker because one would expect theologically conservative Christians to have resisted this particular modern infatuation better than most groups. Indeed, approach us directly with the assertion that some things are good for you and others are good for... Read more

Truth Matters: A Response to Gregory Shane Morris

Last updated on: September 15, 2016 at 8:23 am By Guest Contributor

by John Ehrett I read Shane’s recent Patheos piece, Against Evangelical Victim Culture (Stop Blaming Josh Harris for Your Problems), with mixed emotions. On one hand, I agree with Shane that some of the individuals weighing in on this debate have tended toward “histrionic” denunciations. Having said that, I’ve tended to view the recent scrutiny of I Kissed Dating Goodbye as a hugely positive development for evangelical culture, and Shane’s post does nothing to change my views on this...

Robber, Addict, Senator and Others Honored with Charles Colson Hope Awards

Last updated on: September 2, 2016 at 2:43 pm By Guest Contributor

by James J. Ackerman In August 1974, Richard Nixon resigned from the presidency in the aftermath of the Watergate scandal. Not long before, Nixon’s so-called “hatchet man,” Charles “Chuck” Colson, voluntarily pled guilty to obstruction of justice on a Watergate-related charge. He served seven months in Maxwell Federal Prison Camp in Alabama. Just prior to starting his sentence, Chuck became a Christian, and during his incarceration Chuck became convinced that God was calling him to do something to remember the... Read more

Faith Travels

Last updated on: August 24, 2016 at 3:46 pm By Guest Contributor

by Paul Larsen We all have stories about how travel breaks down walls and builds bridges of understanding and respect. For some of us the travel is walking across the street or driving to the next community. For others it is flying across the oceans. As I stepped off the plane in Cairo, a stranger greeted me. There was something familiar about him. It was as if I knew Youssef* my whole life. In the days that followed we travelled... Read more

How Teachings On Grace Made Young Christians Lazy

Last updated on: August 18, 2016 at 6:22 pm By Guest Contributor

by Stephen Angliss Hard work is no longer cool among young Christians. In fact, it’s not cool among many young people at all. In a recent study, researchers conducted a survey among members of the millennial generation–approximately aged 15 to 30– concerning their beliefs concerning work. In that study they discovered the following traits: Millennials have a Passion to Accomplish Important Things in the World. Unlike the generation before them, that was primarily concerned with making as much money as... Read more

Whoring After False Gods

Last updated on: August 16, 2016 at 8:59 am By Guest Contributor

I will state it up front. I will be voting for Donald Trump. But I am not voting for him because I like him. (I don’t). I am voting for him because he is actually a mirror of the immorality from which Evangelical leaders persistently avert their eyes in return for proximity to political power. Read more

Pro-life Strategic Voting in this Election

Last updated on: August 12, 2016 at 10:59 am By Guest Contributor

The problem with voting for Trump as a way to stop Clinton is that choosing the lesser evil may only cement this growing marginalization of the pro-life movement from Republican politics. To my great surprise, when pro-life candidates were progressively eliminated this spring from the nomination cycle, pro-life groups did not stage any strong protest. Read more

Why Trump Can Never Make America Great Again

Last updated on: August 8, 2016 at 10:44 am By Guest Contributor

by Robert Morrison Trump promises to “make America great again.” And he mocked a reporter with a grievous disability. He doesn’t see any contradiction. I do. America the Cruel can never be America the Great. I had the high privilege of studying under Britain’s Sir John Wheeler-Bennett. He was one of the greatest diplomatic historians of all time. Sir John knew Churchill, Roosevelt, Trotsky, Hindenburg. He even helped the young Jack Kennedy write his senior thesis for Harvard! If anyone understood... Read more
