I was at my friend Nick Challies’ funeral earlier today, and through the songs about Jesus and the words about Nick at the funeral, Jesus’ words in Matthew 25:21 have been on my mind all day. In the middle of the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25:21, Jesus said: “His master said to him,…

Three months ago, Tim Challies, sent me a text with a picture of his son, Nick, and his fiancé, Ryn. The picture was taken right after Nick proposed to Ryn. Tim’s text said: “So this happened today. You’re not the only one wooing an American. Though it looks like he’s now ahead of you in…

American Christians, the presidential election shouldn’t make you forget your election in Christ. If you’re an American Christian, you might have been born by Americans, but you were born-again by God in heaven.

Blackness was once considered a curse, now it’s considered a commodity. Just as intellectuals from decades and centuries ago created white supremacy to label black skin a curse, many intellectuals today have created critical race theory to label black skin a commodity. For that reason, blackness has become one of the most valuable items on…

It’s not justice to justify the wicked, and it’s not justice to condemn the innocent. It’s not justice to justify criminals like Jacob Blake. It’s not justice to condemn good police officers. It’s not just an injustice—it’s an abomination before the Lord. Proverbs 17:15 says: “He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the…
