Women’s Roles and Misleading Bible Translations
FB Introduction The 2026 Southern Baptist Convention’s (SBC) Annual Meeting took place June 7-10 in the Orlando Convention Center, preceded by the SBC Pastor’s Conference on June 7-8. A ban voted for in each of the last three annual meetings was strengthened by an...
Judgment – By God or Man?
In reading my title, most folks likely thought to themselves, “God, of course!” Really? As humans, with our incredibly strong inclination to be self-enthroned egoists, we attempt to assume many roles of the Almighty. Sitting in the judgment seat judging ourselves and...
Jewish Nationalism in the First Century and American Nationalism in the 21st Century
The Jewish nation into which Jesus was born had both national pride and national hope. In the days of King David and King Solomon, they were one of the greatest nations on earth. The riches in Israel amassed in Solomon’s day, as shown in the construction of God’s...

Why I Don’t Vote
Although I don’t mention it often, I have mentioned publicly a number of times through the years that I don’t vote. I recently received a letter from a good friend who has a hard time with me over my position and urged me to rethink it. I promised him and others on a...
Agree on Everything? by Jonathan Lichtenwalter
As I have written elsewhere, I believe scripture is best viewed as a guide that leads us Christ, rather than as a rulebook to be uncritically applied to any and every context. I also am convinced that even the best of Christian traditions is full of failures and...
I Just Want to Hear Your Voice – Episode 1, by David Malutinok
Introduction to this Essay Series C.S. Lewis, who was no stranger to tragedies in his life once wrote “Grief is like a long valley, a winding valley where any bend may reveal a totally new landscape.” My life experienced a tragedy on March 30, 2009, when our middle...
