The Failed Episcopal Experiment
One should not take joy in the demise of a church. It comes only after devilish ideas are embraced and sound Bible teaching has been rejected. Nevertheless, the continued meltdown of the Episcopal church does teach an important lesson to those who rush to liberal theology as the true hope of mankind. Not only is […]
Darkness is Falling on Tuscaloosa
Tuscaloosa County is the home of my youth. Growing up in Northport, we often went to Tuscaloosa to shop and for entertainment. The University of Alabama was there and football weekends in the Fall were as much a part of my youth as skinned knees. In 1972, when I was 11 years old, a disturbance […]
Obama, Thomas and Ignorance
I try to avoid overt politics here. This site is first about Jesus Christ and his gospel of salvation. We do talk about political issues sometimes as they touch on things of faith but we do shy away from talking about candidates. But today is different. Kind of. Cal Thomas is a political pundit who […]
The Dangerous Prom
Spring brings the prom. It’s the social event of the year for many young people. But hidden beneath all the fancy dresses and well groomed, tuxedo-clad men lies a dangerous truth. The prom is no place for a Christian. It’s an optional event that is fraught with danger. So much so that the term “prom […]
Really? Praying for Abortions?
Guess we shouldn’t be surprised, Satan himself is often disguised as an “angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). I’ll let this article speak for itself except to say that wickedness knows no bounds. There may be some tidbits of good here but, really? Planned Parenthood Holds Prayer Service As always, your comments are welcomed.
Consequences
We awake this morning to the report of Whitney Houston’s death just hours before the Grammy Awards were to air. For those who followed the pop star it was a shock although maybe not so surprising. Houston was one of the true musical talents in the business. She grew up around gospel music and learned […]
Important Religious Research
Sometimes, the practice of faith receives a boost from the sciences. Over the weekend an analysis was posted by the Heritage Foundation which brings together many studies on the benefits of religion. One of the conclusions hints at the breadth of this report. The available evidence clearly demonstrates that regular religious practice is both an […]
Why I’m Done With Finebaum – And A Lot of Other Stuff
Paul Finebaum is probably the top expert on Southeastern Conference football. He’s been deeply involved in the sports since the 1980’s when he worked for the Birmingham Post Herald newspaper. Now he has a very sucessful, top rated radio call in show heard around the nation every weekday. He takes calls from throughout the nation and […]
What Christians Can Learn from Football
Football fans are teaching us a lesson about faith. These early days of January are a football fan’s favorite time. This weekend saw NFL teams fighting it out in the playoffs and tomorrow night Alabama and LSU will face off in the biggest game in recent memory. Fans are beside themselves. Their eyes are red […]
Tolerance
Tolerance is an important buzz-word in American culture. We are taught, encouraged and cajoled into being tolerant of every odd idea that appears. There is no greater complement among some than to be thought a tolerant person. Tolerance has become the holy grail of our godless society. The idea of “live and let live” has […]
