The Art of the Reductio
While we’d all like to think we are prone to rational discourse, we nevertheless can be deceived into thinking that just because someone is smart, they are a careful thinker. As the example of Jesus, Paul, and parents everywhere shows—this is not necessarily the case.
Who are the “gods” of Psalm 82?
I’ve recently been in a discussion with a friend of mine (and faithful reader of the blog!) about the divine council worldview. Among other things, we discussed concerns about the “gods” of Psalm 82. Just who are they, anyway?
The Dangerous Normalcy of Deconversion: 3 Things to Remember
In the wake of yet another “celebrity” deconstruction story, the reactions are beginning to pour in from many across the Christian spectrum. I’ve refrained from posting anything substantive regarding the other celebrity deconstructions in recent memory, but I want to say something now.
What is Ministry?
What is ministry? The word “ministry” has a variety of contexts, and I think it’s something quite often misunderstood. It’s much more than a profession.

Have you ever stepped outside of your comfort zone to do what you felt was right? It’s recently come to my attention that TikTok may just be the next big platform for reaching young people with ideas—even in an unexpected place.

“Because I said so!”
The world is a pretty crazy place right now. COVID-19 has people up in arms, and even within the Christian community, opinions vary so much.
One thing that consistently comes up in times like these is how much trust, if any, we should place in the “experts” giving us advice.
Philosophers Define Atheism as the Proposition that God Does Not Exist
It’s quite common for the atheistic community that hangs out online to claim that atheism is merely the psychological lack of a belief in God or any gods. However, a recent Facebook conversation sparked discussion around how philosophers define it, which seems to decisively answer the question.
How Can I Know I’m Saved?
Without a doubt, one of the most important questions one can ask is, “How can I know I’m saved?” In many ways, this is the most basic question a person can ask! And yet, the question is actually quite complex. As we explore a biblical answer to this question, it may be as good a time as any to reflect honestly on your answer.
