Be Afraid of Yourself: A Plea to Christian Leaders on Sexual Sin

Last updated on: February 10, 2018 at 3:07 pm   By G. Shane Morris

Another prominent Christian leader has confessed to inappropriate behavior with two young women on his ministry’s staff, and resigned.

The list of Christian men in ministry, whether pastors or apologists or speakers or authors, who have been caught in the net of sexual sin over the last few years is dizzying. It’s nauseating. It’s a punch in the gut. Whatever the actual statistics, the merciless repetition... Read more

No, C. S. Lewis Didn’t Teach a Ransom Atonement

Last updated on: January 30, 2018 at 10:01 am   By G. Shane Morris

One of the less astute canards in Reformed circles is the idea that C. S. Lewis taught a ransom theory of the atonement. Read more

R. C. Sproul: The Man Who Taught Me to Fear God

Last updated on: December 19, 2017 at 1:09 pm   By G. Shane Morris

I first remember encountering R. C. Sproul while a student at “The Truth Project.” The founder of Ligonier Ministries was one of an ecumenical cast of guests that Focus on the Family’s Del Tackett had assembled for a tour de force course on the contours of a Christian worldview. Dr. Sproul made numerous powerful contributions that sparked group discussions—discussions that helped shape my thinking and devotion to Christ fresh out of high school. But his greatest contribution to the study wasn’t in... Read more

Yes, Fellow Protestants, Mary is the Mother of God (It’s Good Christology)

Last updated on: December 18, 2017 at 3:24 pm   By G. Shane Morris

Theotokos–Greek for “birth-giver of God,” or more simply, “Mother of God.” It’s a term that strikes many if not most evangelical ears as “just too Catholic,” but the theology and history behind it are central to what makes us Christians, and what makes Advent and Christmas worth celebrating. Read more
