I grew up in Savannah, Georgia in the 90s and early 2000s (hands down the best era!) and had a magical childhood. Apart from chasing the ice cream trucks in the summer and going frog hunting with the neighborhood kids after an evening storm, my fondest memories are of Halloween. I know that's an odd…
I'll keep this short and sweet since I'm sure most of us have been inundated with news of the horrific murder of conservative and Christian Charlie Kirk, but I do think there's a lesson here to be learned for those of us in the church. I'm not the first and I won't be the last…
The Rebellion of Korah (Numbers 16:1-19) 16 Now Korah son of Izhar, the son of Kohath, the son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth, who were Reubenites, took men 2 and rebelled against Moses, along with some of the Israelites, 250 leaders of the community, chosen from the assembly, famous men. 3 And they…

Recently, New Saint Andrews College in Moscow, Idaho dropped a recruitment video, enticing young men to join their academic ranks. For those who haven't seen it, I'll link it here. The video is fairly boilerplate in what you'd expect from Wilson and Friends. There's the nod to Christian Nationalism (a movement rife with exegetical error),…
Breath prayers are certainly not the only form of prayer a Christian should utilize, but merely another means by which we can commune with God.
We recently had a gentleman tune our piano. When my husband called to make the appointment, the gruff voice on the other end of the line said brusquely that he was the best and the most affordable and that we needn’t bother calling anyone else. It wasn’t a boast, just a simple fact. Over the…
This, the paradox: What happens when An irresistible force Meets an immovable object?
These artists have been redeeming a genre typically associated with the worst types of worldliness. This is not an exhaustive list of all that's good in Christian Hip Hop (CHH).
