Theology That Bites Back
It is not enough for us to be against woke, or DEI, or social justice, or whatever new term our lizard overlords have decided to foist upon us. We must be hostile to all such verbal iterations, of course, but we must fight, as Chesterton put it, not simply because we hate what is in …
My selection for February’s book of the month is a most satisfactory book. Really good. And, not to keep you in suspense, I am talking about My Dear Hemlock by Tilly Dillehay. The very first thing to address has to do with the central conceit of the book. It is structured in the same way …

Shepherds for Sale is an important book, and I am delighted to commend it to you. The adage “follow the money” is always a good one to remember when it comes to issues like this, and this is exactly what Megan Basham does. She follows the money and it reveals quite a tale of sad …

In this book Jeremy Carl analyzes the results of our abandonment of the …
If I hadn’t already read it, I would want somebody to give me this book for my birthday, which is coming up.
