Christian parents want the best for our children. In my latest article, I share one crucial piece of advice for parents using public education: Pretend you're sending them to a Muslim school. See how that approach changes everything we do.

Parents want the best for their children. As Christians, we define “best” differently than the rest of the world. Above all else, we want our children to embrace and live out their faith for themse…

Those in the Protestant Reformation and the Puritans had their own ideas about Satan. But how did their culture, background, and situation influence why they believed what they believed? And how does that impact what we believe today?

We continue our journey to see how our modern, dualistic belief about Satan as an "almost god of evil" has developed throughout history. Chapter 3 looks at the cultural and theological influences that came after the time of the apostles.

What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there a thing of which it is said, “See, this is new”? It has been already in …

"A final mention must be made about the narrative we give this moment. Sermons, books, and even songs claim that the Father turns His face away from Jesus because He can’t look at the millions of our sins placed on Him. Nowhere does the Bible claim this, but it’s been said so often that we assume it’s true."

We conclude this chapter by taking a deeper look at Gnosticm, a name we may not know, yet a religion that impacts us today. This one is critical to for Christians seeking to understand why dualism is so prevalent in modern Christian thinking.

Christian Gnosticism (100 – 400 AD) As dualism became a default assumption in and outside Judaism and the early church, it evolved into a strange religion called “Gnosticism” that Christians …

Paul's words in 1 Corinthians have sparked much controversy. Are women meant to be silent observers? Is this too misogynistic to belong in the Bible? Join me as I dig into the complexities of this passage and come to a surprisingly simple conclusion.

As in all the churches of the saints, the women are to keep silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak, but are to subject themselves, just as the Law also says. But if they desire…

Could ancient religions impact interpretation today? Chapter 2 begins exploring how our modern concept of Satan may have developed through sources beyond the Bible, giving us a god who nearly rivals God Himself. Note: read the [bracket] at the beginning.
