Start Living Before It’s Too Late

Last updated on: February 13, 2023 at 12:21 pm   By Guest Contributor

Guest post by Justin Brierly. In my recent post-episode podcast, I had the pleasure of hosting a Q&A with renowned pastor, writer and speaker Tim Keller; we discussed his journey with pancreatic cancer, his transformed prayer life and his new book “Forgive.” Towards the beginning of our conversation, he said something that struck me, setting a tone of holy reverence for the rest of our talk: “My wife and I would never want to go back to the kind of... Read more

4 Ways Christian Should Respond to Being Canceled

Last updated on: November 4, 2022 at 12:26 pm   By Guest Contributor

Hurricane Ian has come and gone from my hometown of Naples, Florida. Yet, cancel culture isn’t going anywhere soon.  Like a hurricane, cancel culture is fueled by heat.  As temperatures rise, cancel culture gets bigger, stronger, and more destructive.  No one escapes its fury.  I recently talked to a tearful mother whose daughter had insisted she affirm her LGBTQ choices or she could no longer be part of her life.  If you haven’t been canceled yet, you probably will be—especially... Read more

Music Amidst the Rubble

Last updated on: April 15, 2022 at 5:21 pm   By Philip Yancey

As Holy Week approaches each year, I turn to my favorite part of the Gospels, John 13-17. Many other passages seem rushed. They leave me longing for more sensory detail and pondering the meaning of Jesus’ cryptic sayings. In these five chapters, the author slows the pace almost cinematically. After all, it’s the group’s last supper together. One by one, the key disciples make an appearance in John’s account. Peter picks an argument with Jesus and then quickly yields. John... Read more

Death Comes For “the Arch”

Last updated on: January 4, 2022 at 9:10 pm   By Philip Yancey

The son of a schoolteacher and a domestic servant, Desmond Tutu would grow up to become a prominent figure on the world stage. With Nelson Mandela locked behind bars for almost three decades, the apartheid government in South Africa saw Tutu as their greatest threat. Tutu’s reputation belied his simple charm. Interviewers remember his impish giggle and his corny jokes. Wearing a standard bishop’s uniform—purplish shirt with a white clerical collar—he usually introduced himself as “the Arch,” short for Archbishop.... Read more
