A few days ago I wrote, in that lucid and penetrating way I sometimes have, that we ought not be tying other political or cultural issues to our pursuit of Planned Parenthood. As much as within us lies, we ought to keep the focus and attention on the indefensible conduct of Planned Parenthood, and the …
Well, Okay
“The IRS wants to know the contents of our prayers. Fine, but that may involve sulfur, brimstone, raining scorpions, and hail the size of cantaloupe” (Rules for Reformers, p. 197).
The Collapse of Their Righteousness
I have just a couple points this morning, and not surprisingly, they are all related to the continuing Planned Parenthood scandal.

Book of the Month/August
This is a book that needs to be carefully read by every pastor and Christian leader. We live in a time that cries out for careful definitions for just about everything, and this book supplies us with a careful definition of marriage. It does so in the realm of common grace. In other words, the …
