Letters to Improve the Lives of All of Us
The Christian Bloom
“Christianity is not a faith that was developed from scratch. Christians have always rested their New Testament on the foundation of the Old Testament. This means that we have always considered ourselves to be in some sense the true heirs of the promises God made to His people.”
American Milk and Honey, p. 118
In Defense of Worldview Thinking
Introduction: In conservative Christian circles, worldview thinking was quite a hot item for a while. Most recently, I reckon it became “a thing” among us during the Francis Schaeffer times, and it then burgeoned into something of an industry. In North American circles, the kick-off was Schaeffer’s How Shall We Then Live?—the book and film …
From That Dark Cross
“There was only one sacrifice, not two, for us men

American Milk and Honey, p. 115
A Surrender Which Rose
“We give You our thanks for His active obedience,

21 Prayers, p. 32
Theology as Excuse Making
Introduction: I was in a recent discussion with Dr. Vishal Mangalwadi, and he used a phrase that hit me with some force. He said that American Christianity was a "defeated religion." That discussion ...
Not Hidden in a Corner
“This idea that the church is Israel now is not some esoteric doctrine, tucked away in an obscure corner of the Scriptures somewhere.”
American Milk and Honey, p. 115

Letter to the Editor: RE: MoonbatsI agree with you regarding the entertainment (and other) value of the disruption to come if RFK Jr. is confirmed. It's also good to keep in mind, though, ...
Moonbats and More
Introduction: As I type this, we do not know whether RFK Jr. will be confirmed by the Senate. It is quite possible that he will not make it, although I certainly hope he does make it through. But some of my reasons for that are clearly in need of an explanation. Under ordinary circumstances, which …
