What we need to withstand those who would destroy our culture in futile attempts to remake civilisation according to their impossible ideals. The influential English historian Paul Johnson died earlier this week. His passing did not seem to result in all that much media coverage, [...]

Way to go, Dutch freedom fighters! Dutch farmers have banded together to form a political party and preserve their way of life, refusing to give in to socialist state control of their land. Gotta like the Dutch. I often write about Holland in part because [...]

Where is God when cancer returns? This is really a two-part piece: a general devotional on God and suffering, followed by an update on our ongoing personal cancer story. Some of you are aware of our journey over the past year, and a new development [...]

Whom or what we choose to serve has serious consequences. When Bob Dylan was in his Christian phase (I am not quite sure where he is at now), he released a few hardcore and full-on Christian albums. The opening track on his 1979 album Slow [...]

Some wise words about the ever-present threat of statism. ‘The state is my shepherd; I shall not want.’ As worship of the living God shrinks, worship of the state grows. It used to be Communist societies and Muslim-majority ones where we witnessed tyranny on a [...]

What is conservatism all about? These quotes express the values and worldview of various prominent conservatives. As my readers will know, I am a Christian first, and a conservative second. If I wanted to offer some of the best quotes on Christianity, I would need [...]

If we really want to help other people, we must do it God’s way. If we care about others, we of course want to help them when and where we can. But not everything we do may be helpful. We may in fact cause more [...]

Can the deception get any worse than this? Satan is real. Sin is real. The fall is real. And deception is real. But too many folks do not believe in any of these realities. As a result, they end up fully falling victim to them. [...]

Very wise words by Lewis on the place of emotion. Because C.S. Lewis was such a deep thinker and so widely read, he was able to offer incisive and wise words about all sorts of things, including those things he may not have yet experienced. [...]

How do you react when coming upon great evil? A few days ago, I viewed part of some American true crime program on TV. The gist of it was this: a woman with four young children conspired with her lover to kill her husband and [...]

How should we live in the face of impending doom? Just how should we live if we thought our present way of life was all but finished, with a dark and uncertain future just around the corner? If we knew almost certainly that everything was [...]

Os Guinness discusses the lateness of the American hour. Nothing lasts forever. People come and go, and nations come and go. Sadly, once free, democratic and prosperous nations can lose all that and devolve into something much different. The old saying holds: ‘Eternal vigilance is [...]

Climate lockdowns are now following on from Covid lockdowns. Here is a truth you must never forget: the same power-hungry control freaks who wanted to lock down the whole world to keep us ‘safe’ from Covid are also wanting to lock down the whole world [...]

Today justice is not always found, but full justice IS coming. A million times a day there are acts of injustice taking place, be they greater or lesser acts. Most people have an innate dislike of injustice, and a strong desire for justice. Here I [...]

We all have a long way to go in mastering the Bible and doctrine. Most folks have heard of the expression found in my title. Sometimes the term “rose-coloured glasses” is also used. It refers to how some folks prefer to look at everything in [...]

The new and now complete three-volume biography of C. S. Lewis is a must-read. Given that the last of a three-volume biography of Lewis is now available, let me speak to this terrific set. I refer to the just completed trilogy of works by Harry Lee [...]

Tremendous advice from the great C.S. Lewis. When one thinks of Christian apologetics, the name of C.S. Lewis instantly springs to mind. He certainly was one of the most important and influential apologists of last century, and his impact is still being fully felt today. [...]

The coming out of Dr Phelps continues to make headlines. There has been a fair amount of fallout from a news story that appeared the day before yesterday. It had to do with a leading Australian doctor who has begun to call out the Rona [...]

The secular left West is becoming ever more similar to communism. Christianity was one of the main driving forces of the West. For many centuries, they were in many ways synonymous. But as Christianity weakened, so too did the West. Thus what can be called [...]

We must stop worshipping or demonising public figures. Here is a truth you can count on: in this life, we are all a mixed bag. You will find no purely good people and no purely evil people. We all do some good things and some [...]
