When 'Maranatha' is a Memory
“Increasingly, I find myself deliberately contemplating what kept Jesus on His own cross out of necessity for mine. Scripture says that as He stared down the barrel of His own death—not only a terrible way to die, but bearing the weight of wrath for many—it was “the joy set before Him” that kept...

FROM THE ARCHIVES // "Peacemaking requires us to break off our apathy and address the things that are most difficult for us head-on. We’re not contributing to anyone’s peace by avoiding conflict.

more -
A Heavy Stone: Part II
“the identity of the Church is bound to the history of the Jewish people.” and because of that, it is vital that we have a right understanding of this fact: “God’s discipline of Israel has always been, and will always be, with the purpose vindicating His name and winning back His wayward son. The...
-
A Heavy Stone: Part I
"What does it mean to stand with or against Israel? This is a weighty and nuanced issue. And the consequences are everlasting. We should be eager then to allow Jesus to define what He means by standing with or against Israel." Listen to the audio recording of "A Heavy Stone: Part I" by Daniel…

Planting Gardens in Babylon

Culture Wars & the Way of the Cruciform // The Biblical Illiteracy of #ChristisKing

The More Important Part of Your Life

Gaza, Goliath, Gospel // Living in a World too Good at War
"Deductively, a social justice-centric hermeneutic leads us to conclude God will always fight for and side with the underdog. He is, to be sure, the 'Father to the fatherless' and tireless advocate for the poor and needy, and the One who will defend the defenseless and vindicate all victims. This...

Mysteries of Mercy
FROM THE ARCHIVES // We tend to either accuse God like Job, or oversimplify God like his friends. We tend to either reduce Him to what fits in our boxes of black and white, or deduce that He can’t be good if He doesn’t fit there. In the end, God assured Job that his friends got it wrong in their...
-

Grace Abounding

Because He Cares
"God’s love for us is quite literally unfathomable. And sometimes it can even seem unbelievable. When we take a long look at humanity, or even better, a long, honest look at ourselves, it seems comical that God could and does love humans. But He does. Of course we believe God loves us, on paper....
-
Good News Among the Grieving
“Exalting the worth of Jesus Christ among the unreached and unengaged at the end of the age” preaches good. It lives hard. This vision statement has been and will remain the thing that put and keeps us on the field. The worth of Jesus compels us to lay foundations for the Gospel where there are...
-
All Our Heroes Fall
Humans have always had a propensity to put men on pedestals. God warned us that all our heroes would fail us sooner or later, and He gave us a whole book about how He is redemptive amidst the gravest of sins. We all long for a leader we can trust will never fall, but there is only One. Listen to...

God's Patience Waited in the Days of Hamas
"Unquestionably, there is no heart on earth that is more pierced than God’s. There is no entity in existence whose anger is more enraged, or whose passion for justice is more enflamed than Jesus Himself. So how could He not act immediately and bring swift judgment on His adversaries?" Listen to…
