It is impossible to engage our culture at any level, and not hear curse words. Whether it is a television show or a stroll in the park, the words of our culture do not discriminate. They do not care who you are. The question every caring parent must answer is who is going to teach their child the culture’s language.

My question about this is not about the power of truth, especially God’s Truth, to capture and lead the person to salvation. It is whether reasoned (intellectual, rational) appeals to truth and goodness are, by themselves, most fitting in the contemporary cultural scene, which is marked by a lack of confidence in rational truth as an absolute category.

Few things in our culture today are sadder than the deterioration of the family. It does not matter any longer if you’re a Christian; being Christian does not insulate you from the encroachments of sin. Abuse has many aspects. This article addresses only one of the many questions about abuse: can a Christian spouse divorce her husband because of abuse?

This is the second in a series of commentaries I’ll be writing on traditions and customs that, in my humble opinion, are doing damage to the missional purpose of what is commonly referred to as the “Black Church”. The objective of this series is not to denigrate any particular denomination, church, or individual, but to humbly address what I personally view as orthopraxy (orthodox practice) that is harmful to the Black Church as an institution and detrimental to the advancement of the Gospel in general. – Darrell Harrison

The most important question asked when making a decision is, “Are you ‘in faith’ to [insert the thing you’re thinking about doing]?” I said this to a friend recently and he asked, “What do you mean when you say, in faith?”
