ESPN and Call of Duty Are Fun, But It’s Still Not Good to Be Alone

Last updated on: August 7, 2013 at 12:52 pm By Owen Strachan

The following is an excerpt from a piece I just wrote for Boundless on manhood, marriage, and the benefits of maturity: It’s the most inspiring 60 seconds in American culture today. Slow-motion combat, exploding rockets trailed by plumes of white. Men paying the ultimate price for a greater cause. Valor, vigor and victory. So what are we speaking of? A montage from military history? A call to join the armed forces in service to a nation in peril? No. We... Read more

Essay for The Atlantic: When Is a Royal Baby a Fetus?

Last updated on: July 24, 2013 at 8:05 am By Owen Strachan

Here’s the opening from an essay I just wrote for The Atlantic online about the “royal baby” born just a few days ago: This week, as the U.K.’s Prince William and Kate Middleton were expecting their child at any moment, the impending birth received a galaxy’s worth of media coverage. That the child would be heir to the throne was a motivating factor in all this attention, to be sure. I was interested not only for this reason but for a less-noticed... Read more

The Nation’s First Hipster President and the Promising Prospects of the Christian Mind

Last updated on: July 18, 2013 at 9:39 am By Owen Strachan

I just had the opportunity to write “A Hipster for King’s College,” a piece for the American Spectator on the recent appointment of Dr. Gregory Alan Thornbury to the presidency of The King’s College in lower Manhattan (it’s located on Wall Street–how’s that for symbolism?). Thornbury, I suggest, is the nation’s first “hipster president.” More significantly, I connect Thornbury to one of his mentors, the titanic evangelical theologian Carl F. H. Henry, and specifically to Henry’s awe-inspiring vision for the evangelical academy.... Read more

Harvard-Graduated and Pro-Life: A Christian Woman Responds to Wendy Davis’s Work

Last updated on: July 12, 2013 at 1:18 pm By Owen Strachan

Prisca LeCroy just wrote a beautiful pro-life essay for The Atlantic entitled “My Mother Regretted Her Abortion” that responds to a recent pro-abortion New York Times piece by Beth Matusoff Merfish. In her NYT essay, Merfish cheers on the efforts of Texas senator Wendy Davis to defeat a pro-life bill. Prisca, like her godly mother, is a remarkable woman: PCA church member, honors graduate of Harvard and the University of Virginia (J. D.), lawyer in Texas, now wife to Colin and mother of two....

Paisley White and the Invigorating Culture-Shift on Abortion

Last updated on: July 10, 2013 at 1:29 pm By Owen Strachan

http://youtu.be/Q4foXehDmWs Get ready for your jaw to drop. This video, on a father’s repentant love for his daughter Paisley, who lives with Down Syndrome, is poleaxing (HT: Eric Metaxas). I said this a few months back: the babies we don’t want today are the ones we most need. In a fast-moving, high-achieving age, we don’t want to be slowed down today. In a narcissistic, appearance-obsessed period, we don’t want to be associated with those who look different. In a perfection-driven... Read more

Are Complementarians Really the Most Pro-Woman Folks Around?

Last updated on: July 9, 2013 at 8:04 am By Owen Strachan

Yes, I think so. I explain why this is so in the media below. Recently, I’ve had opportunity in my role as Executive Director of the Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood (CBMW) to do several interviews that have allowed me to speak to my gospel-driven, positive vision for the organization. If you’re wondering how complementarianism is truly liberating, if you want to know how the gospel syncs up with sexuality and gender, and how we’re handling same-sex marriage, the... Read more
