In it, he gives a concise history of how Evangelicals separated salvation from discipleship. For example, Willard claims that WWII was great for soul winning, but bad for discipleship. In fact, he denied that […]
By Summer Stevens As we usher in another year and the world continues to spiral even farther into an orbit of suspicion, fear, and strife, I find myself echoing Habakkuk’s cry. “How long, O Lord…?” How long will You allow this to continue?

Lauri escreve: Fui criado em um lar cristão por dois lindos pais cristãos. Fui “salvo” com 6 anos de idade, mas comecei a duvidar da minha […]

A few weeks ago, I wrote a blog about the American Revolution. I suggested that it was a violation of Scripture. In my answer, I discussed Romans 13. While I received some emails praising me for what I wrote, I received many more questioning my understanding of Scripture and of life. Ray asks five questions […]
