  • Bonhoeffer's Three Ways for the Church to Act Towards State Injustice

    Dietrich Bonhoeffer was appalled at the pathetic response of the German state church to the injustices visited upon Jews by the Nazi regime. Bonhoeffer famously enumerated three possible ways in which the church can act towards the state injustice:

    1. Question the state regarding its actions and their legitimacy
    2. Aid the victims of state action, whether they are Christians or not
    3. Take action directly against the state to stop it from perpetrating evil.

    Are any/all of these responses Biblical and/or appropriate? If so/if not, are there other appropriate responses for the Church/Christians to "turn injustice into justice?"

    How far do we go when a gross injustice (like the murdering of the unborn) is taking place?

    Gary Dull discusses Dietrich Bonhoeffer's 3 ways the church can respond to injustice and applies it to Christians and the Church today.

  • Pres. Trump's National Day of Prayer Address

    For his National Day of Prayer address, President Trump told the story Thursday of a former convicted felon who found faith in a cell and reconciled with the FBI agent who arrested him. Is this event something we should be excited about, or is what the President did nothing? Is something going on that is unique right now?
    Is this an incredibly unique time that appears to be a God-given moment of opportunity that we dare not squander, but rather seize in diligent prayer and engagement?

  • Evaluating risks in investments

    For stock market investments, whether in mutual funds, selective stocks, or bonds, the average person has no idea what has the greater risk. And even those who have some idea have been so wrong so many times that people listening right now who lost great sums back in 2008 and other recent market downturns have still not recovered. On top of this, the market today is too volatile in up and down swings that it causes the average person to just cover their ears and eyes and just hope against hope. What about the person who sees all these things and wants to be responsible before God? How do they evaluate these risks?
