Who Blinks First? Rowan Williams Challenges Peter Akinola On Homosexuality
In 2005, a head-on clash took place between Evangelical Nigerian Primate Peter Akinola and then Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, who challenged the Nigerian leader over attempts to normalize homosexuality.
To the astonishment and dismay of the liberal Anglican leadership in the Global North, the Nigerian Archbishop led the Global South’s revolt against the campaign to normalize homosexuality within the global Anglican communion. For this, he was twice recognized by Time magazine as one of the “100 Most Influential People” on earth. Williams was ignored.... Continue Reading

Critical Race Theory’s Chief Marketing Officer
Ibram X. Kendi’s brand of “antiracism” sanitizes for elite institutions the academic Left’s most pernicious ideas.
Many Americans have realized that Kendi’s brand of “antiracism” is nothing more than a marketing-friendly recapitulation of the academic Left’s most pernicious ideas. While Kendi, born Ibram Henry Rogers, presents himself as a radical subversive, he is really an ideologist of elite opinion, subsidized heavily by America’s corporations and public institutions. Ibram X. Kendi’s... Continue Reading
Christian CEO Wins Religious Discrimination Case
An Employment Tribunal has ruled that Scotland’s biggest grant-making trust unlawfully discriminated against its CEO because of his Christian views on marriage.
“This ruling is a welcome re-statement of the principle, upheld again and again in the courts, that the Christian belief that marriage is between a man and a woman is a belief protected by equality law and worthy of respect in a democratic society. This is a just outcome and one which sounds a warning... Continue Reading
How to Tell Someone They’re Wrong
Four qualities set the tone for confronting others.

It is as though God will not let him be released from his duty to preach. There is nothing else he can do but pursue this inner drive to preach. Necessity is laid upon him, and he must preach regardless of what others may say. He must minister the Word, no matter what obstacles must... Continue Reading
Love Your (Imperfect) Pastors
Pastoral authority, despite what the cultural narratives would have you believe, is for your good.
Unfortunately, for some of us who are students of God’s word and think we have all our theological ducks in a row, our response can be heavy on examination and light on reception. Rather than being like the Bereans, who took what they were taught and gladly held it up to God’s word to verify... Continue Reading
What Reformed Churches Can Learn from Mark Driscoll
It’s a gospel-driven, gracious message that saves people and brings true change, especially in how we love our wives as Christ does the church.
It’s a gospel-driven, gracious message that saves people and brings true change, especially in how we love our wives as Christ does the church. The pastor, too, must submit to that message, knowing that such a calling takes away his own control over the people, as it’s meant to do. Then the ministry is really... Continue Reading
