God and Silicon Valley

Last updated on: August 4, 2015 at 1:15 pm By Guest Contributor

by Skip Vaccarello God and Silicon Valley! The two don’t seem to fit together do they? Silicon Valley is the global center of technology where innovation and entrepreneurship flourish, and where fortunes are made. Venture capitalists and technology wizards form the perfect marriage of limitless money and bountiful creativity. Together they start companies like Google, Apple, and Facebook that change the way people work and live. Innovation, technology, and wealth are idolized. Self-sufficiency, self-centeredness, and the pursuit of success reign.... Read more

Four Mentoring Truths

Last updated on: August 3, 2015 at 8:51 am By Guest Contributor

by Priscilla Shirer I had the blessing of being raised in a home where natural mentoring occurred. The kind of passing on of wisdom that happens in the kitchen, in the car, in the yard and around the table. I’ve also had women outside my family who have poured into my life and let me learn from them. Sadly, I’ve noticed that it’s becoming more and more difficult to connect with others on this kind of deeper level that results... Read more

How Christians Fight Anxiety

Last updated on: July 15, 2015 at 9:02 am By Guest Contributor

by Rachael Dymski Anxiety, for many, is a hard thing to reconcile with Christianity. How do we profess to be Christians, people of peace, as our stomachs twist and turn with worry? How do we raise our hands high in worship while we try not to let them shake, while inside, we are forcing ourselves to breathe in, breathe out? Anxiety is not cancer. It is not a death, a disability, a heart condition. It is not so public or... Read more

The Biggest Roadblock to Greatness

Last updated on: July 10, 2015 at 1:30 pm By Guest Contributor

by Dave Martin Experience teaches us that if two people look at the same thing, each of them will see something different. A man and woman can be shopping, for example, and while the wife may see a beautiful new pair of shoes that would be ideal for her upcoming cruise, the husband only sees the price tag. She can see how perfectly those shoes would go with the new dress she plans to wear for the formal night of... Read more

Gaining by Losing

Last updated on: July 2, 2015 at 10:40 am By Guest Contributor

by JD Greear I sat at a table with our four church-planters-in-residence for the year, listening to them give their final report before being sent out from our church. We had given them a head-hunting license, and they had recruited 200 of our active members to go with them. I knew I was supposed to be excited, and I was… but I was also feeling an involuntary lump form in my throat, a mixture of sadness, fear, and, quite frankly,... Read more

Sex And The Spiritual Realm: A Review Of Gordon Dalbey’s Pure Sex

Last updated on: June 30, 2015 at 9:10 am By Guest Contributor

by Brandon Showalter No cultural division today is fraught with more confusion, bitterness, and deep pain than the current divide over the nature of marriage and human sexuality. As Rod Dreher noted two years ago in his prophetic essay “Sex After Christianity,” when sex is the subject at hand, the tack that Christians have employed in the public square has been primarily a moralistic one—an approach that has proven to be completely ineffective—and given the rapid increase of the legal enshrinement of...

More Bang For Your Buck

Last updated on: June 25, 2015 at 7:59 am By Guest Contributor

by Dave Martin Have you ever fired a rifle? Better yet, have you ever fired a shotgun? A shotgun cartridge contains hundreds of tiny pellets. All these pellets are packed tightly into a large casing, and, when fired, the casing opens and the pellets are propelled in multiple directions in a powerful explosion created by a large amount of gunpowder. The opening of the barrel of a shotgun is huge in order to allow all these little pellets to “spray”... Read more

SBC and Same-Sex Marriage: A Return to Relevance.

Last updated on: June 24, 2015 at 7:53 am By Guest Contributor

By releasing a statement that they will not accept a definition of marriage based on anything other than God’s Word, regardless of the political and financial cost, Southern Baptists are shifting from a mindset of working within the political system to standing apart from it. Read more

Let the Seven Deadly Sins Guide Your Parenting

Last updated on: June 22, 2015 at 8:52 am By Guest Contributor

by Ken Roach Modern parenting tends to lean heavily on either behavior—what children do—or on education—what children think. A growing number of parents, however, are most concerned with identity—who children become. I know for my wife and me, helping to form the character of our two children is far more important than making sure they follow a list of rules. So, when my pastor suggested a few years ago that parents could be guided by the ancient list of “seven... Read more
