The State of the Union: A Brief Assesment (0)
1/26/12 •
On Tuesday night President Obama delivered his constitutionally mandated State of the Union Address. Every year this foray in D.C. theatrics promises to be full of inspiring pomp and circumstance, high-flying political promises, and mind-blowing partisanship. The partisanship was a little difficult to discern, however, as the traditional party-line seating arrangements have been replaced by [...]
The Christian Life and Censorship (0)
1/20/12 •
On January 18th, much of the Internet went dark due to two strange-sounding acronyms practically no one had heard of before: SOPA and PIPA. Those letters stand for “Stop Online Piracy Act” and “Protect Intellectual Property Act,” legislation currently being debated in the House and Senate, respectively. Major websites, including Google, Wikipedia, and Facebook, made [...]
Tebow Time And Christian Calling (1)
1/13/12 •
Everywhere around the country, Christians are rallying behind “Tebow Time.” It doesn’t have that much to do with the Broncos—we’re just glad Tebow makes us proud of our faith. His undeniable skills on the football field are unmatched, except perhaps by his undeniable faith in God. However, some of my fellow Christians make me a little nervous with their Tebow fanaticism.

This past week I received a letter from my Congressman, Doug Lamborn (R-CO). This particular mailer was addressing the topic of the federal budget, so you’ll have to excuse the irony of a congressman using federal funds to send out a piece of campaign material to talk about the government’s poor use of finances. This [...]
The Crossroads: Can a Christian Vote for a Mormon? (7)

The Crossroads is a biweekly installment where Christians of differing perspectives have an opportunity to voice their respective opinions on an issue. In the spirit of promoting edifying dialogue within the Body of Christ we encourage you to add your voice to the discussion. May our conversation be uplifting for the Church and point us [...]

With the Iowa Caucus bearing down on us, it may help to clarify the religious background of some of the GOP contenders. CNN recently profiled the religious journeys of three of the candidates.

Ministering In A Pluralistic Society (0)
12/28/11 •
For just a moment, put aside the gnawing question of whether or not America was founded as a “Christian nation.” While an important discussion, it often bears little significance for how we are to minister in our current setting. With each passing year we become more and more of a pluralistic society, one in which [...]
A Tale of Two Kings: Herod, Jesus, and the Glory of Christmas (0)
12/24/11 •
This article was originally posted last year, but is a great reminder of the wonders of our Savior as we celebrate His birth. I was fortunate to visit Israel in 2006, just before the war with Lebanon broke out late that summer. There were many beautiful scenes and striking stories, but none stick out in [...]
Robertson, Tebow, and Religious Discrimination (0)
12/22/11 •
Pat Robertson is once again in the news. After Saturday Night Live poked fun of Tim Tebow’s outspoken faith by parodying a visit by Jesus to the Denver Broncos’ locker room, Robertson saw the need to defend the star quarterback. Robertson was offended by the skit and cited it as an example of “anti-Christian bigotry.” He [...]
