05/01/21 Pollster George Barna, chief of research at the Cultural Research Center, has concluded that America is infected with “Moralistic Therapeutic Deism,” or for the layperson, “watered-down, feel-good, fake Christianity.” Barna’s organization at Arizona Christian University has released a report explaining the beliefs first were identified among teens in the early 2000s, and now as adults, they still embrace them, making MTD “the most popular worldview in the United States today.” Read More: Barna: America infected with Moralistic Therapeutic Deism
04/27/21 Even people who aren’t pro wrestling types, I believe, have to tune in at some point for the silliness. I can still remember some of the talent lineup when I was a young ‘un. There was Irwin R. Schyster, the tax collector whose initials were IRS. There was the Mountie, who was … well, a Mountie. There was Bobby “The Brain” Heenan, who would hopefully never lose his mental acuity and have to fall back on his pure athletic talent. And then there was my favorite — the Undertaker.

This a fantastic book by H.A. Baker who along with his wife had a Christian orphanage ministry in China in the early 1900’s. The children experienced a tremendous outpouring of the Holy Spirit resulting in visions of Heaven, Hell, the end times and more which are recorded in the book. You can read the book online, download it as a PDF or listen to an audio version at this link.

04/10/21 In his 22 years, Rafer Johnson has done many things and all of them extraordinarily well. His mother says of him: “We tried to teach him to walk straight, talk straight and think straight … He just naturally became good at everything…” When his parents guided him toward church work, Rafer sang in the choir and was active in youth groups. In high school at Kingsburg, California, he captained the track, basketball and football teams, and gained stature as a power hitter on the baseball nine. After entering University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), Rafer

04/10/21 “A lesson for all of us.” Admin The call came one September morning, before I’d had my coffee. “Julie, he’s drinking again.” Our family member had relapsed. Not for the first time. I got off the phone and felt myself slipping too. Not by drinking, but by “stinking thinking,” the distorted thought patterns that had made my life unmanageable. Overanalyzing. Obsessing. Trying to control things. Clyde, our four-year-old yellow Labrador retriever, came into the kitchen as I poured my coffee, prancing as much as a 100-pound dog could prance. He knew it was time for a walk.

04/04/21 The resurrection of Jesus Christ is one of the most important biblical truths there is. Next to the Crucifixion, it is the most significant event in church history. It isn’t a peripheral issue; it’s foundational. It’s bedrock. It’s the bottom line. Not only does the Resurrection tell us that we will live beyond the grave, but it also tells us there is hope beyond this life. In fact, the Bible says, “Christ has been raised from the dead. He is the first of a great harvest of all who have died. So you see, just as death came into

It’s not a dream, it’s not a nightmare, it’s not an Ambien-induced episode, and there’s no waking up from it. Unlike the cat ladies on Facebook who insist on posting the “hang in there memes,” I’m honest enough with you to tell you how it is. Not how I hoped it would be, or what the best-case scenario will look like if a thousand things happen in sequential order, akin to winning

03/19/21 “Ruth Zhao” was a performer in the Chinese military’s Cultural and Performance Division. She was famous for her performances, winning awards year after year. ‘Deny your faith or lose your job’ But recently, everything changed. Ruth’s boss told her she had to stop going to church meetings and that she couldn’t be both a military performer and a Christian since military personnel in China are not allowed to be Christians. Ruth was faced with a life-changing decision: Deny her faith and keep her job, or declare her unchanging love for the Lord and risk everything.

03/04/21 “You can read more of Michael’s posts here.” Admin We are about to get a firsthand, front-row demonstration of what Nineveh would have suffered had they not repented. I spent the better part of thirty minutes trying to soften the blow, trying to make it seem less dire than it is, but there’s no getting around the truth of where we are, where we are headed, and what we are sure to see along the way. The parallels are eerily similar until they’re not. The point where the similarities between American and Nineveh diverge is the most essential of

03/01/21 I recently had a literal dream about America. It was incredibly vivid and moving. It inspired but challenged me, too. It was about what America used to be, and yet what it could be again. It’s about what we once highly cherished, and I believe need to cherish again. I even knew the date of the event in the dream. It was set on July 4, 2021, which is still four months away. Independence Day falls on a Sunday this year. I dreamed I was riding a horse by myself on a rural stretch of rolling

12/23/20 Tens of thousands of house church pastors and evangelists across China have gone into hiding as the Communist Party prepares for what seems like a “final assault” on Christianity in an attempt to eradicate it from the country, according to missions group Asia Harvest. In its final newsletter for 2020, Asia Harvest said pastors have disconnected from their phones and computers so that government authorities can no longer use those devices to track their movements. These pastors have also reportedly destroyed the microchips inside their ID cards so authorities cannot track their locations using those devices either.

12/23/20 A ritual bath dating to the time of Jesus has been unearthed at Gethsemane, the place where Jesus prayed just before his Crucifixion. The 2,000-year-old bath was found near the site of the famous modern-day Church of All Nations. It marks the first time that Second Temple period remains have been found at the site. Excavators also found the remains of a previously unknown Byzantine period church dating back 1,500 years. The remains were uncovered by workmen building a new visitor centre and foot tunnel linking the modern church to the Kidron Valley. The finds

12/16/20 Of the four Gospels, Luke gives the most detailed account of the nativity and mentions Mary 12 times, more than any other biblical writer. In addition to the birth of Christ, he also gives special, detailed attention to the birth of John the Baptist and many see his interest to be a result of his training as a physician. At the beginning of his gospel, Luke, whom Paul calls “the beloved physician” in Colossians 4:14, indicates that he has made a thorough investigation of the things about which he is writing, including the virgin birth. This investigation

12/09/20 For more than 15 years, I have been saying that those who came out of the closet would want to put us in the closet, meaning that gay activists calling for “equality” and “tolerance” would want to silence dissenting voices. About 10 years ago, a Christian attorney said to me, “Mike, take that one step farther. Those who were once put in jail will want to put us in jail.” When I repeated his comment on Christian TV, I was widely ridiculed by the left. “No one wants to put people like you in jail!” In

These were the four words that formed the question God asked Cain while still covered in his brother Abel’s blood and gore. It’s not as though God didn’t know what Cain had done, but I dismiss the idea that the question was rhetorical in nature, offhand. God doesn’t play word games, He doesn’t do gotcha moments, so when the question was posed, I believe it had more to do with the full extent of the consequences of what Cain had done rather than

1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. 2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) 3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. 4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) 5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. 6 And so it

But he also says that, weeks before the election, God gave him an additional word that has particular relevance in view of the massive voter fraud that seems to have taken place: This is a spiritual battle and so it must be fought in the Spirit to maintain

11/07/20 I think at this time it would be good to remember the Bible’s account of Lazarus in John 11:1-44. Word was sent to Jesus that Lazarus was sick. They wanted Him to come and heal him. But Jesus delayed and Lazarus died and his body was placed in a tomb. When Jesus arrived Lazarus had been dead four days, his sisters were grieving and told Jesus if He had been there sooner their brother would not have died. It looked in the natural that all hope was lost. But Jesus had something much greater in mind, the raising of
