Raising children in a world that is increasingly rebellious against God-given gender is quite a challenge. I believe that every generation has their own unique challenges to face, and LGBTQ is ours.

While there are many tricky verses in the Bible, it’s clear that some of them were never intended to give us so much trouble. Paul’s mysterious mention of the “restrainer” in 2 Thessalonians 2 is a perfect example, but perhaps we have been looking at it the wrong way. Reading…

In the past week, we have celebrated Christmas, commemorating the human birth of the Only-begotten Son of the Father. At this feast, we were reminded of central mysteries of Christian faith: The Son who is eternally in the bosom of the Father is born from the bosom of a virgin;…
The Blackwell Companion to Ethics (edited by Stanley Hauerwas and Samuel Wells) looks to be a stimulating collection of essays. The contributors examine ethics through the lens of liturgy, on the assumption that what God seeks are worshipers, companions who will walk and eat with him. Thus, for instance, abortion…
