Há algumas semanas, as crianças do 3º ao 5º ano da nossa igreja estavam aprendendo sobre a história da criação contada no Gênesis, e fui convidado a participar do processo de planejamento para ajudar a esclarecer equívocos científicos comuns que as crianças encontrarão à medida que forem crescendo. (por exemplo: “A ciência pode refutar...

As Mama Bear apologists, one of our greatest pleasures is seeing parachurch organizations recognize the need for youth apologetics training. For anyone unfamiliar with my personal journey, our head pastor did two series when I was in 7th grade that changed my life:...

I saw Wonder Woman for the second time this week, and loved it both times. I loved the story. I loved the cinematography. It was well-crafted and well-executed. I loved the pro-woman message. It wasn’t the modern feminist message; it was a classic feminist message. It...

The idea of being a mother, but not having children sounds odd to some people, and yet I believe it is a painful reality that plagues more women than we realize. There are a lot of ways a woman can end up as a childless mom. The most obvious is, of course, the woman...

I went to a concert tonight, and remembered something that I like to forget about myself: I’m a crier. I never used to be when I was younger. I remember growing up a total tom-boy and seeing those girls who cried at weddings, and babies, and movies, and whatever and...

I picked the wrong week to stay off social media. I am apparently not in the circles that were notified of this weekend’s “March for Women,” so when Rebekah texted me on Saturday in a huff about pink hats, I wasn’t sure what she was talking about. I am a woman, but...

I’ve often said that we don’t give kids nearly enough credit for what they are capable of. As Barna’s research has shown, dumbing down the Christian message into a hollow, shallow, bumper sticker confession of faith is not making Christ’s...

In editing the most recent podcast, I realized that Rebekah and I threw the word “legalism” around a lot but never really defined it. Since I grew up in the church, the lingo is second-nature to me and I forget that not everyone knows what we are talking about. So, as...

A few weeks ago, a post made by a woman in Utah began circulating around on Facebook. In her post, she recounts the traumatic experience of when her twins died shortly after an emergency C-section, and urges the public to discount all they have heard about late-term...

One of the most common objections to the faith I hear from college students is in regards to some aspect of Christian teaching or Christian morality that they find offensive. Often, these questions revolve around sexuality. While questions regarding the grounding of...
