Australia is burning: here are some possible explanations
Just as we should not dismiss the extremist Green view that this is Mother Earth getting her revenge, so we should not dismiss the judgement of God as a factor.

Violence is being normalised in the name of anti-violence
The left wing position, in the West at least, seemed much more pacifist and anti-violence. Today it is groups like Antifa and some elements of Climate Extinction who are offering violence and destruction of property as the solution.

What should we make of Kanye West's conversion?
Every Christian and their dog apparently has an opinion about Kanye West, and it's been a bit depressing and somewhat amusing to see some of the discussion.

What Chick-Fil-A reveals about British intolerance and irrationality
The LGBT neo-Puritan militants cannot tolerate the idea that anyone anywhere might be enjoying something they do not approve of

Paula White's new book 'Something Greater' is revealing, disturbing and depressing
The new book from Donald Trump's spiritual adviser demonstrates why so much of the US evangelical church is in deep trouble.

Emotional women, rational men: why I'm coming out as binary
At the risk of being labelled a transphobic bigot, I might just revert to the Bible's crazy idea that there is such thing as male and female

An astonishing courtroom hug and what it teaches us about radical forgiveness
Brandt Jean did the unthinkable and embraced the woman convicted of murdering his brother

Richard Dawkins has managed to produce a book on theology, history, philosophy, ethics and science that is even worse than his first.

The BBC are teaching queer theory as scientific fact when it isn't. They are dismantling the whole idea of truth. But it is also inhumane and harmful to children.
What can the Church do about Brexit?
Can the Church shed any light on the situation? I think we can. But we have to be careful. It is not the role of the Church to take sides on political issues.

Lessons for the West from China
China tries to make every child the same. I have seen the same principle in Scottish schools, where social engineering and attempted thought control at times tend towards Maoism.

Is prostitution work?
We talk about the exploitation of women and applaud the MeToo movement, while at the same time permitting and encouraging young women to be purchased and exploited by older men.

We need to stop using tragedies to make political points
The blame game is all too easy after attacks like the one in Sydney

Out of the darkness: Is the secularist faith in decline?
We hear a great deal about the decline of the Church and the decline of the Christian faith in today's West. But I wonder if we are also seeing something else â the decline of the secularist faith.

Harari's hypocrisy and why Christians can be just the same
Harari has fallen prey to the temptation of so many Christian preachers and prophets. Rather than just say the Word of the Lord to the culture, we are tempted to adapt the message, rewrite the Bible and proclaim it in such a way that will not offend and will ensure us a hearing.
