Scripture

And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside?

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Tithing Is an Investment in Imagination
Feb 23, 2026

Provision precedes vision.

Before I started setting money aside intentionally, I had no idea what I would do with it.

There was always something more urgent:
Bills.
Upgrades.
Small comforts.
Future contingencies.

And when you live at that edge — even comfortably — imagination narrows. Your thinking becomes reactive. You manage, you optimize, you respond. But you don’t build.

The Lack of Imagination
Feb 23, 2026

How profit obsession leaves necessary work undone

We are not short on resources.
We are short on imagination.

We live in a country capable of designing hypersonic missiles, training large language models on planetary-scale data, and coordinating just-in-time supply chains that stretch across oceans. Yet somehow we struggle to clear snow quickly, rebuild bridges before they collapse, pay caregivers well, or create dignified work for people whose labor does not yield immediate profit.

The problem is not scarcity.
It is assumption.

Tourette’s, Taboo Words, and the Myth of “What’s in Your Heart”
Feb 23, 2026

When John Davidson, a Scottish advocate for people with Tourette syndrome, shouted a racial slur during the BAFTA ceremony, the room froze.

When John Davidson, a Scottish advocate for people with Tourette syndrome, shouted a racial slur during the BAFTA ceremony, the room froze.

The BBC and BAFTA apologized. Viewers were offended. Disability advocates explained coprolalia. Commentators debated whether the broadcast should have been edited.

And then a new claim began circulating:

Doug Wilson has said things like:

“Women are the kind of people that people come out of.”

He has argued that the 19th Amendment — the amendment guaranteeing women the right to vote — was “a bad idea.” He has expressed support for “household voting,” where the husband casts the vote for the family.

How Do I Know That Sinner Over There Is Saved?
Feb 19, 2026

There is a certain question Christians have asked for centuries, sometimes politely, sometimes anxiously, sometimes with a raised eyebrow:

There is a certain question Christians have asked for centuries, sometimes politely, sometimes anxiously, sometimes with a raised eyebrow:

How do I know that sinner over there is actually saved?

It sounds spiritual.
It can even sound responsible.
But it is a dangerous question.

Patriotism Is the People in the Room

There’s a story often told in anti-bullying workshops.

There’s a story often told in anti-bullying workshops.

A classroom is locked in for the day. One student begins harassing another. The teacher asks, “What should the victim do?”

“Ignore it.”
“Fight back.”
“Tell someone.”

You Are Not Called by the Algorithm

If something wrong is said publicly,

The Affair of Church and State

There is a commandment that comes before all the others.

Not “do not murder.”

It’s Your Midlife. Where’s the Crisis?
Feb 13, 2026

For decades, “midlife crisis” was practically a cultural rite of passage.

For decades, “midlife crisis” was practically a cultural rite of passage.

A red convertible.
A sudden career change.
A marriage in flames.
An existential panic dressed up as reinvention.

It was so common it became a joke.

It looks reverent.
It looks solemn.
It looks pious.

But its center of gravity shifts.

Verse 1

Verse 1

Little Tommy Two Fingers worked his nubs to the bone,
Clocked in at six, coughed blood by noon, but never made a groan.
The whistle blew like judgment day, the gears began to scream,
“Efficiency!” the foreman cried, “We’re beating last year’s scheme!”

The river ran in colors no nature ever chose,
The air hung thick like velvet drapes inside our factory rows.
Tommy smiled through missing teeth, beneath fluorescent glow—
“Productivity is up!” they said. “That’s all you need to know!”

When the Rubber Meets Congress

There’s a particular kind of political theater that feels familiar.

It doesn’t feel like oversight.
It doesn’t feel like governance.
It feels like a middle school bus ride.

Okay, I’m Not Judging Your Doctrines or Hierarchy — What Park Would You Like Progressive Churches and Conservative Churches to Meet Together to Feed and Dine with the Poor?

I’m not going to argue about women in ministry.
I’m not going to argue about complementarianism.
I’m not going to argue about MAGA.
I’m not going to argue about canon, tithing percentages, or which party cares more about children.

Let’s assume, for a moment, that you are sincere.

Rent Extraction Is Not Serious Public Policy
Feb 5, 2026

One of the biggest obstacles to meaningful reform isn’t ideology, partisanship, or even corruption.

It’s confusion.

Trump Ran on Releasing the Epstein Files — Then Resisted Until Release Was Inevitable
Feb 4, 2026

When Donald Trump campaigned on transparency, he promised to release long-sealed government files — including those connected to Jeffrey Epstein.

When Donald Trump campaigned on transparency, he promised to release long-sealed government files — including those connected to Jeffrey Epstein. To many supporters, that promise became proof that he had nothing to hide.

But the actual record tells a more complicated — and more revealing — story.

Trump did not lead the charge to release the Epstein files.
He signed the law only after Congress passed it by a margin so overwhelming that resistance was politically futile, and his administration then missed the statute’s deadline, releasing the material in staggered waves that maximized chaos while minimizing accountability.

Stolen Land Is a Federal Problem — Not a Celebrity Gotcha
Feb 3, 2026

Every few months, the phrase “stolen land” resurfaces in American discourse, usually after a celebrity makes a public statement.

Every few months, the phrase “stolen land” resurfaces in American discourse, usually after a celebrity makes a public statement. And almost immediately, the response machine kicks in:

“If you really believe that, give up your house.”
“Donate your mansion.”
“Leave the country.”

This framing is emotionally satisfying for critics — and almost completely useless if the goal is justice.
