The Real Problem With the Sinner’s Prayer

Last updated on: September 29, 2017 at 9:42 am By G. Shane Morris

I'm convinced evangelicals will never fully grasp the Gospel until they recognize that salvation is not conversion, and Christianity is not about a time, a place, or an act. Read more

On Living As if God Is Real

Last updated on: September 18, 2017 at 3:34 pm By G. Shane Morris

Martin Luther, the tortured and guilty soul that he was, took God seriously in a way that’s tough for me to grasp. He lived as if God were real. Read more

Millennials, It’s Time To Retire the ‘Why I Left the Church’ Genre

Last updated on: September 1, 2017 at 1:41 pm By G. Shane Morris

Originally published at BreakPoint.org. This article from Faithit is characteristic—almost to the point of satire—of the Internet’s most exhausting genre: 20-somethings explaining “why millennials are leaving the church.” Sam Eaton writes that the 59 percent of millennials who were raised in church and have dropped out are sending a message, and it’s the church’s responsibility to shape up to meet his generation’s demands. What are those demands? “Jesus was insanely clear about our purpose on earth,” he writes. “‘Love God. Love... Read more

The Eclipse and Our Privileged Planet with Dr. Jay Richards

Last updated on: August 20, 2017 at 5:43 pm By G. Shane Morris

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Jay Richards, Senior Fellow at the Discovery Institute, for the BreakPoint Podcast. Dr. Richards is co-author of the book, “The Privileged Planet,” and explains how this week’s total solar eclipse is evidence of how remarkably suited Earth is not only for life, but for discovery.

Want to Fuel the Alt-Right? Tear Down More Statues

Last updated on: August 17, 2017 at 5:27 pm By G. Shane Morris

Left-wing vigilantism directed at a statue is exactly the kind of thing that fuels the alt-right. It gives reality to the white nationalist alarm cry that their heritage is under attack by unrestrained mobs. Read more

On the Christian Bubble, and Being the Bad Guys

Last updated on: August 10, 2017 at 8:44 pm By G. Shane Morris

A recent episode of the Disney Channel cartoon show, “Doc McStuffins,” which is aimed at preschoolers, depicts a lesbian couple (who are dolls in a little girl’s imaginary world) teaching kids about emergency preparedness, specifically what to do when there’s an earthquake. One of the show’s writers, Chris Nee, is in a same-sex relationship herself. “My son has two moms,” she says, “and it’s a huge part of my life as a human being and it’s been an incredible part...

The Writers of ‘Planet of the Apes’ Went Bananas with Christian Imagery

Last updated on: July 27, 2017 at 2:58 pm By G. Shane Morris

It’s summer, and I don’t need any other excuse for this post. I just saw “War for the Planet of the Apes,” the last of a reboot trilogy that’s probably my favorite science fiction franchise in recent years. It’s smart, emotionally gripping, and character-driven, all without sacrificing the kind of eye-popping realism that’s made motion-capture CGI imagery (and Andy Serkis) famous. Along with “The Life of Pi,” Disney’s live-action “Jungle Book” remake, and a hand full of other flicks involving digital animals, these... Read more
