Wait a minute... I thought "diversity is our strength"? Isn't multiculturalism what gives us the wonderful blessing of being able to eat Thai, Italian, Mexican and other types of food in one city? Aren't all cultures equal? Isn't being against multiculturalism racist? Well, as a half Indian, half...
Have you ever noticed that the way that Jesus and the Apostles preached the Gospel doesn't resemble how many churches and Evangelicals preach it today? Why is it that the "gospel" message many Christians share today (even in Bible-believing, conservative churches) cannot be found in the Bible? I...
The majority of modern Western Evangelicalism has lost its teeth and become emasculated and effeminate. It is dominated by sentimentality and compromise wrapped up in the language of "winsomeness". "Niceness" has become the ultimate standard for a Christianity that has not known serious...
I've recently taken notice of people excusing all sorts of bad behaviour, words, and attitudes because of a person's "ignorance". Even many Christians can believe that ignorance excuses guilt. You hear it all the time in remarks like, "Oh, she doesn't know any better... she's really got a good...

Paul's high Christological Hymn in Colossians 1 is the main focus of this article. It is quite possibly one of my favourite texts of the letters of Paul. Hopefully by the end, you will also—but we should first establish some context. Paul was writing to the church in Colossae, in response to...
Many Christians today function as "New Testament Only" Christians. They apply little to no effort to understand the Old Testament and its application to our lives today. After all, we now have Jesus and the New Testament... so out with the old and in with the new, right? Ironically, the novel...
There are many “gospels” out there today. But what is the true, Biblical Gospel? There is a lot of confusion about what the Gospel is—both among non-Christians and even among Christians. Some reject the Gospel without really knowing what it is. Others think they know what it is but believe a false...
In our last few articles in this series unpacking some of the insights of the book The Coddling of the American Mind and considering them in light of Biblical truth. We looked at the untruths of fragility and emotional reasoning. In this article, we will take a look at the final untruth Lukianoff...
