Pastors Who No Longer Believe

A recent study reveals that many pastors are remaining in denominations in which they are no longer able to give consent to the statement of faith that their denominations hold.  Often motivated by financial incentive not to break ranks, pastors simply stay in their churches and lead the sheep astray.  On today’s program, Dr. Mohler addresses this disatrous situation calling on pastors who no longer believe to…

What Is the Gospel? An Interview with Greg Gilbert

How Should We Speak of Islam?

The United States Army recently rescinded its invitation to Franklin Graham to pray at a prayer service because of comments he made about Islam.  Following 9/11, Mr. Graham said he wants Muslims to know that Jesus Christ died for their sins.  This controversy brings to light how far America has come in its thinking about…

This Man Was No Moderate: The Legacy of Cecil Sherman

We are not likely ever to see the like of Cecil Sherman again. No one will be able to understand the history of the Southern Baptist Convention in the twentieth century without reference to him. No one who had a meaningful encounter with him will ever forget him. Cecil Sherman may have led the moderate movement in the SBC, but this much is clear — Cecil Sherman was no moderate.

How Green Should We Be?

The first Earth Day was celebrated 40 years ago.  Yet, Christians should never need a national day to be reminded of the Scripture’s teaching that the Earth is the Lord’s and everything in it (Psalm 24:1).  In an age in which many have made the environment itself an object of worship, Christians are those who…

He had told numerous interviewers that he wanted to die in an active, not a passive sense. Then again, there may never have been a truly passive moment in Christopher Hitchens’ life.

President Obama and Same-Sex Marriage — The Dance Continues

Some predictions are rather safe to make. 2012 is almost certain to be a determinative year on the issue of same-sex marriage. Multiple courts appear poised to strike down the Defense of Marriage Act [DOMA] and, even more urgently, the appeal on California’s Proposition 8 at the Ninth Circuit U. S. Court of Appeals will set up a certain appeal to the U. S. Supreme Court. Given the facts of this case and the significance of the nation’s most populous state, the Supreme Court is almost certain to take the case. This sets the stage for the courts to make some determinative statement on same-sex marriage within the next several months — a decision that will go a long way toward setting the direction of the larger culture.
