Rest From The Weariness
Moralism is tedious and draining. And there is an obvious reason for it being draining. It is an attempt to do an impossible climb of good deeds to God, or at least better than the other people around (I hope you’re thinking about the Pharisee and the Publican right now). The thought of it is…

Comfortable And Consistent Inconsistency: An Accidental Part Two To “We Must Get Our House In Order”
When a church rails against homosexual marriage while at the same time allowing divorce to go on without a second thought we are definitely not acting in a way that is consistent.

A Speedy Revolution Requires Evangelicals To Do Some Thinking…And Repenting
Here’s my point. You’re not lovingly pointing people to Christ when you stand at a gay pride parade with a sign saying that everyone participating is going to Hell. You also do little good if you just let a person die in their sins without telling them the truth. But, you do good eternally when…
