There is no getting around it -- Christians are fools for Christ. The Kingdom of God is an upside-down kingdom. Those things that God values, cherishes and loves are the things the world spurns. And what the world celebrates and promotes are often the things [...]

Don’t expect any apologies anytime soon. Little did I or anyone else know three years ago that the world would soon come to a standstill. Little did I or anyone else know three years ago that such a thing as Covid even existed. And little [...]

The onslaught of diabolical darkness is escalating rapidly. We live in a time where evil is celebrated and promoted while godliness, holiness and goodness are treated with contempt. In times past it seemed that people preferred to do evil, but it was often under cover [...]

Is Jesus able to save even the most vile sinner? Warning: graphic content ahead. My question is this: are some people such horrific and evil sinners that they are beyond being saved? Are there such diabolical monsters out there who have committed such repulsive and [...]

This is why the left is so addicted to tearing things down. That the left prefers violence and destruction over reason and debate should be crystal clear by now. It seems the daily newspaper headlines give us really good indications of this. And the headlines [...]

How should we live in these changing times? How do we continue to bear witness to Christ's Gospel in the face of outright hostility and incomprehension? My theme is simple. As I have said so often over the years, the once-Christian West is no more. [...]

This new book is a much-needed challenge to our complacent Christianity. What does today's world ask of the church? We must be ready to respond in faith. I and many others have long been saying that the church in the West -- be it America [...]

Intention Our prayers and petitions to God are never in vain Scripture “Is it not for you to know justice? -- you who hate the good and love the evil.” -- Micah 3:1-2 Reflection In my daily Bible reading this morning, I came upon the [...]

This new volume by Democrat Robert F. Kennedy Jr. deserves a very wide reading. It is a slim book containing a wealth of information and sound truths about how the coronavirus scare was mishandled. Back in May, I posted an article examining 21 of the [...]

Just how should believers respond to persecution? Some things are worth writing about -- and often. The rise and rise of anti-Christian bigotry, hatred and discrimination in the West in general is one such topic. So too is the ruthless hounding out of a job [...]

That was a really fast case of anti-religious bigotry. Within 24 hours, Andrew Thorburn stepped down from his dream job as CEO of Essendon Football Club in Melbourne. Well, that did not take long. A brand new CEO has been forced out in record-breaking time. [...]

Many are blind to the darkness that is all around us. We need to consult our spiritual GPS to see where we are and where we are going. I was recently asked to talk about where we are at as a culture with 250 prayer [...]

Not knowing the future need not worry us, because God does. In this piece, I want to discuss both theological and pastoral aspects as to how we believers are to live in the light of the God that we serve. Our God is an infinite, [...]

Some of the greatest and most stirring words of Scripture are found in Paul's letter to the Ephesians. A doxology is an expression of praise to God. There are many doxologies found in the Bible. Consider a few famous ones. In 1 Timothy 1:17 we [...]

The madness is now complete. Mainstream media has been fawning embarrassingly over the transformation of Dean Laidley into Dani. There are consequences for vulnerable youth who see this adulation of a sports star embracing the transgender lie. In a recent article, I spoke of the [...]

A few thoughts on Queen Elizabeth’s faith-filled funeral. We shall probably not soon see her like again. Her passing marks the end of steadfast Christian governance in the highly secularised West. On Monday I watched the Queen’s funeral, as did so many millions of others [...]

Human governments cannot do what only God’s government can. Every tyrant and dictator wants to be ruler over all peoples, and with no dissent allowed. While the masses may in part go along with their rule, there are always various groups -- ethnic, religious, cultural, [...]
