A Review of Canon Press’s Discussion on Christian Nationalism
I watched Canon Press' discussion on Christian Nationalism this week featuring Al Mohler, Doug Wilson, Joe Rigney, Paul D. Miller and I thought it was worth reviewing. As I begin this I want to highlight a criticism I made of another video a while back. In that post (here) I criticized Voddie Baucham's claim that... Continue Reading →
Understanding When Life Begins: A Christian Perspective
Recently, I wrote about a pastorโs reaction to the abortion bill recently passed in Massachusetts. That post led some people to ask about my own views on abortion. With that in mind, I decided to explain how I arrived at my current positionโnot because I think everyone should agree with me, but because I believe... Continue Reading →
Addressing Sexual Violence: Cultural Reflections and Responsibilities
Warning this post is about sexual assault, I try not to be graphic but it is difficult content I saw this post on X the day Mike wrote it, but I have not had time until now to fully express my thoughts about it. I want to begin charitably by saying that I applaud Mike... Continue Reading →
Understanding Birthright Citizenship and Its Misconceptions
I was reading through articles from "First Things" today and I saw one about birthright citizenship that I found very disturbing.

The reason is that when it comes to historical figures Christian nationalists are very forgiving, accepting the faith of these individuals without question. If only they applied that level of forgiveness... Continue Reading →

Exploring C.S. Lewis’s Myth
Like so many I grew up with C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia. I hope that you also had this wonderful childhood experience, and I hope that you, like me, have not grown out of them. I use my own kids as an excuse to return to those books every year but in reality I am... Continue Reading →
The Truth About the Curse of Ham and Racism
Today I saw this post from JD Hall. Hall claims he is not a Christian Nationalist, so we will have to accept that. Yet he is defending a post Joel Webbon, a Christian Nationalist and racist, made the other day. Webbon and Hall are claiming those of European descent claim special privilege from God based...
