Andy Stanley can't mention Jesus' name and the moral proof for God.

 Why can't Andy Stanley talk about Jesus or the Bible? And we continue our Thomist ways with the moral and cosmological proofs for the existence of God.

Critique of Donavon Riley's "Take Up Your Cross and Follow" Lecture

An excellent example of a wolf among the sheep. 

Jemar Tisby The Color of Compromise and Leaving Loud.

Jemar Tisby, author of The Color of Compromise is either ignorant and a pawn of a religio-political agenda of the highest order or he is out for blood and a rising star in the realm of religious race bating.   Spoiler alert.  I'm choosing choice B.

Andy Stanley the Anti Racist

Critical Race Theory and You and Your Family and Your Country and Your Church

 These are strange and confusing times especially when you don't understand how your enemy thinks. This week, Nathan Rinne of Concordia St. Paul continue our saga of helping you to understand and make sense of what's going on in our culture and world.

When Bad Ideas from the Academy Hit the Streets and the Church

 What happens when ideas from university campuses finally hit the ground? It's one thing to talk about ideas and it's something else entirely to make good on them. For those who still question whether or not the approaches of Critical Theory can be adopted by the Church, enter one Frank Wilderson; author of *Afropessimism*.
