On Gender Equality: We Have Made Great Strides & We Are Not There Yet To have this conversation with everyone and anyone makes no sense. If you cannot accept that women are equally created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27), or that women are called and sent to share the Gospel (as the women at the tomb were on the first Easter) then please stop reading, for this […] Written by Red Letter Christians September 22, 2020September 22, 2020 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked

Biblical Principles for Grandparenting a Child with a Disability Have you seen the bumper sticker that says, “We’re spending our children’s inheritance”? Parents committed to Scripture should change that slogan to: “Our children are our inheritance” (see Psalm 127:3 KJV). This applies equally to grandparenting. We receive grandchildren from the Lord as an inheritance, and we give them back to our family, church, and […] Written by Paul Tautges September 21, 2020September 21, 2020 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Amy Coney Barrett and Anti-Catholicism in America The looming nomination of Amy Coney Barrett as a Supreme Court justice has renewed an ugly but persistent tradition in American politics: anti-Catholicism. Since 1517 there have been enduring and fundamental theological divides between Protestants and Catholics about tradition and Scripture, grace and works, the meaning of the Lord’s Supper, and more.
