What Is Revival Anyway and Should We Be Looking For It?
I understand people’s desire for what I think they consider to be revival. It’s convenient really. First, you have a building or a tent, then people come to the building or tent, someone preaches, and multitudes of people actually get saved, truly converted. There are lots of great things about that described scenario, even if […]
Praying for Revival or Not Praying for Revival
In response to my first post of last week, entitled, “Reports of Revival in America,” someone wrote, who was critical of this one question, “Can we stop looking for revival across America?” The critic thought that question or statement to be very, very bad, not good at all, terrible. So the question follows, should believers […]
Jehovah: The Meaning of the Name
The Tetragrammaton is correctly pronounced Jehovah, as it is rendered in the Authorized Version (Exodus 6:3; Psalm 83:18; Isaiah 12:2, etc.). A previous post discussed some of the evidence for this fact, but did not elaborate on the meaning of the Name. Revelation 1:4-5, explains the significance of the Tetragrammaton as oJ w·n kai« […]

Reports of Revival in America
In the 2000 years of Christianity, American churches seem unique at having blended big special calendar events with the assembling and worship of a church. If America were ever to end, churches won’t keep trying to integrate church with July 4th. It wouldn’t work any more. Of several patriotic themes, church leaders harmonize national revival […]

Moral Narcissist*
I just want all of you to know that I’m really, really against immorality. Immorality is bad. It’s heinous. I’m hugely against it. I’m not sure anyone is against it more than me. Just a second while I take a moment to tweet that out. Oops, I can’t blog how much I’m against immorality and […]
Russell Moore, Exhibit One in Ingratiation of Gospel Hipsterness
Do not hate your instinct to restrict Islam in the United States. You should dandle that in your mind like the ambulation of a lozenge in your mouth. At the 2016 annual meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), Russell Moore, president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, the public-policy arm of the SBC, intelligence […]
Brexit Validation
Please read Thomas Ross’s post below. This isn’t a post per se. Back when I wrote this post, Brexit wasn’t even on my radar. I hadn’t heard the term, although it had been around, it seems, since 2007. I said, however, this was an election about globalism versus nationalism. Some are also claiming that British […]
