Can God Be Referred to with She/Her Pronouns?

|
"We cannot summarize who God is in his essence. We are finite creatures and God is infinite. Instead, we use the language that God has given to us because God is the one who gets to reveal himself to us."

Do Women Dishonor God by Shaving Their Heads?

|
Paul is talking about the order between God’s relationship with the church and our relationship in marriage. His comments are rooted in the Roman and Greek context of Corinth.

I’m Struggling with Same-Sex Attraction. What Do I Do?

|
We can be transparent because Christ does not cast us out when we talk about our sins. Check out more of our video content on the Core Christianity YouTube channel.

Should Christians Embrace the Use of Preferred Pronouns?

|
We want to be sensitive to the fact that gender dysphoria is a real condition. But in terms of the way in which we talk about these things, we have to stick to what we have in Scripture.

Why Are So Many People Deconstructing Their Faith?

|
What people mean by “deconstruction” is that they are calling into question and even rejecting many of the doctrines they were brought up with. And a lot of young people are shaped more by media, social media, and the broader culture than they are by the gospel.

What Do You Mean by Responsibility?

|
In light of ongoing racial disparity in our communities and churches, I concluded by saying that the White Evangelical Church at large (which includes the PCA) must accept responsibility for advancing racism and segregation in our country for centuries; actions which continue to have lasting impact in our communities and our churches today.

White Supremacy and Me, Part 2: Music

|
How tragic for me that I accepted and held such views until only a few years ago. In my sin, I not only believed my music was superior, but I believed the worship music of other cultures was inferior. In the case of my views toward the must of the Black Church, such views cannot be adequately described without using the uncomfortable but necessary language of racism and White Supremacy.

White Supremacy and Me, Part 1: Theology

|
In response, I want to share my story about the ways in which I’ve recognized how White Supremacy has invaded some of my views and attitudes. My hope is that by “going first” and sharing my story, others might see themselves in Kwon and Thompson’s writing and critiques, and receive them as a gift of love to the Church (as I have while I followed their work the last few years). Here is how White Supremacy invaded my theology.

John Wayne, Jesus, and the Struggle to Define the Christian Man

|
Here is the key insight Evangelicals can and should take from the book. If you simply add a dose of Christian seasoning and language to an aggressive, secular conception of masculinity—and then marry that aggressive, secular masculinity to religious doctrines of male leadership—the result is disaster. Obsession with male power (rinsed through scriptures misused to manipulate and subjugate not just women, but every person subject to the male leader) manufactures abuse.

Who is responsible for slavery? The Free Church of Scotland has made itself responsible for slavery, by regarding these men as the followers of the meek and lowly Jesus. Think of this, Christian men and women of Scotland!
