  1. Is Your Pastor Wrong About Heaven?

    At funerals, we’re told by some pastors, “They’re in heaven now. They’re looking down on us. They’re in a better place.” Culture echoes it so often that few of us ever stop to ask whether Jesus actually taught it. But when Lazarus died, Jesus described death in a way that sounds strikingly...

  4. AI Apocalypse: Is This How the End Begins?

  6. When Silence Takes Sides

  7. What we see, what we want

    We scroll. We compare. We want. And before we realize it, someone else’s life has become the measuring stick for our own.
