Wayne Grudem Differs with Christianity Today Article

Last updated on: December 31, 2019 at 1:29 am   By Kermit Zarley

Wayne Grudem wrote an article published yesterday with Townhall entitled, “Trump Should Not Be Removed from Office: A Response to Mark Galli and Christianity Today.” It is Grudem’s response to retiring CT editor-in-chief Mark Galli’s much publicized and controversial article published in CT the day after the House of Representatives impeached President Donald Trump. Dr. Wayne Grudem is “Distinguished Research Professor of Theology and Biblical Studies” at Phoenix Seminary in Arizona. I know Dr. Grudem. Since I live in this... Read more

Evangelicals Divided about Christianity Today Article

Last updated on: December 23, 2019 at 6:37 pm   By Kermit Zarley

As I have been posting recently, Christianity Today‘s editor-in-chief Mark Galli wrote an article published in this evangelical flagship magazine which calls for Trump’s removal from office mostly on the basis of his moral failings but also, it seems, to be consistent with their past insistence on both Nixon and Clinton being removed as well. Over 200 evangelical leaders have come out with a letter denouncing the CT piece and supporting President Trump. They include Franklin Graham, the son of... Read more

Christianity Today Article Gets Wide Coverage

Last updated on: December 23, 2019 at 6:06 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Yesterday, I blogged about Christianity Today‘s editor-in-chief Mark Galli having published an article the previous day in which he, representing CT‘s editorial board, calls for President Trump’s removal from office. (CT is the foremost evangelical magazine in the U.S.) This article is now getting widespread coverage in the media, including by major television networks. Galli now says he had no idea the piece would garner this much attention. The main reason is that it made President Trump angry and he... Read more

Christianity Today Says Remove President Trump

Last updated on: December 20, 2019 at 12:06 am   By Kermit Zarley

I am a subscriber of Christianity Today. It is the foremost evangelical magazine in the U.S. It is a monthly publication. Evangelist Billy Graham and Carl F. H. Henry, its first editor-in-chief, were the two main evangelical leaders who founded Christianity Today, which was in 1956. Mark Galli is now its editor-in-chief. In today’s issue of Christianity Today, two days after the House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly in favor of impeaching the 45th president, Donald Trump, Mark Galli writes an... Read more

Trump Tells Pelosi It’s “Not True” She Prays for Him

Last updated on: December 20, 2019 at 10:38 am   By Kermit Zarley

Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives, has said to the media multiple times this year that she prays for the well being of President Donald Trump and that of his family. At the same time, she believes the president is guilty of obstructing justice and committing other crimes while in office. This summer, even though a majority of Pelosi’s Democratic caucus was pressuring her to start impeachment proceedings in the House, she refused, saying there was not enough... Read more

Loose Teeth or Loose Brains?

Last updated on: December 18, 2019 at 9:34 am   By Kermit Zarley

Donald J. Trump repeatedly acts like a schoolyard bully even as the House of Representatives is about to impeach him today as 45th president of the United State of America. It will be one of the most sobering days in the history of the U.S. presidency. This weekend, Nancy Pelosi–who is Speaker of the House and thus the commander-in-chief of this impeachment–spoke on national television. Trump has for years now been calling her Nervous Nancy. Yet she clearly has his... Read more

Butch Harmon Takes a Lesson

Last updated on: December 17, 2019 at 4:03 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Butch Harmon has been rated the #1 golf instructor in America by 1,500 of his peers for the past nineteen years. Butch has taught Greg Norman, Tiger Woods, and many of the best players on the PGA Tour. That is quite an accomplishment for a guy I used to know, yet hardly anybody did (sorry Butch), when he was the head pro at the Texas City Municipal golf course south of Houston for many years back in the 1970s.

Obama Says Let Old Men Get Lost and Women Rule

Last updated on: December 17, 2019 at 2:57 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Former U.S. President Barack Obama recently spoke to a private conference on leadership in Singapore in which he said a lot of world leaders are “old men not getting out of the way” and that the world would be better off being led by women. The BBC reports that Obama said in this speech, “If you look at the world and look at the problems, it’s usually old people, usually old men, not getting out of the way.” He explained,... Read more

Dead Sea Not the Lowest Land Elevation

Last updated on: December 15, 2019 at 8:56 pm   By Kermit Zarley

The Jordan River and the Dead Sea to its south are part of the Jordan Depression. This trough with its extension to the south, the Arabah, serves as a geopolitical boundary between the State of Israel and its eastern neighbor Jordan. The Dead Sea is the saltiest body of water on earth. It’s partly because its surface is over 1,400 feet below sea level. Water from the Jordan River drains into the Dead Sea and remains there, with no outlet.... Read more

Team USA Win Presidents Cup

Last updated on: December 15, 2019 at 7:08 pm   By Kermit Zarley

Team USA dug a deep hole way down under on day one, Thursday, only to escape it on day four, today, to defeat the International Team and win the 13th Presidents Cup in Melbourne, Australia, with a score of 16-14. It was quite a comeback for the Americans. The International Team was ahead 4 to 1 the first day. The second day was going worse for the USA until both Patrick Cantlay–surely a superstar in the making–and Justin Thomas–arguably already... Read more
