When I was a college student I developed a taste for music that was not honoring to God or consistent with the things I professed to believe. One wintry night I decided to make my way to the mall and visit a music store to buy an album of music that I really should not […]
Old Lies in Chic Garb
There is never really anything new about new heresy (doctrinal infidelity, false teaching). It’s just new packaging and new arrangement of old, deadly, toxic, lies. Satan is a liar.

Worldly Churches
Do you ever feel the pressure the make sure your church is “worldly” so people will be attracted to it? If not I wonder what planet you live on. The pressure is on to make the church into an ecclesiastical version of the David Letterman Show or worse. This is epidemic in our time but […]
