Don’t Erase Our History
This year is on course to be the most insane year in American history. From a pandemic exposing the indoctrination culture that is willing to give up essential liberties for an imagined degree of "safety", to the current explosion superficially focused on "race" and #BlackLivesMatter - we as a nation have collectively lost our minds. … Continue reading Don’t Erase Our History
Hated Heroes
Just like many little boys, I use to dream of being a police officer. I always looked up to them. Even after I grew up a bit (some would argue it could never happen!) and no longer dreamed of being a cop, I still looked up to them. I met way too many good men … Continue reading Hated Heroes
Image of God, Sinners, and the Only Answer
Humanity - all of us - were created in the Image of God (Imago Dei). We all have marred that image by sin - the fundamental problem of the world. Every last one of us bears that disease.

What we see is an example of hate, racism, and an unregenerate heart deliberately trying to further divide this nation, and it seriously pushes the envelope not just of the law, but truly … Continue reading Racism, Hate, and Counterproductive Acts
Presuppositions and Division
Everyone has a point of view - Fact. And everyone filters their life experiences and observations through their point of view or perspective - and this is where the term "presupposition" comes in. A presupposition is one's beginning point - it is an assumption or set of assumptions that may or may not be backed with … Continue reading Presuppositions and Division
Identity Politics, Race, and the Church
What part of Jesus Christ's ministry, teaching, or preaching played race-identity politics? What, then was the message, both of Jesus' own words and the rest of Scripture? It's summed up in Christ's response to those trying to corner him: The greatest command is to love God with all - your heart, body, mind, … Continue reading Identity Politics, Race, and the Church
