What the Hell Do You Believe?

Forgive the cheeky title. But the topic is so heavy, I figured a little levity might help. I agree with C.S. Lewis who once said, "There is no doctrine I would more willingly remove from Christianity than [hell], if it lay in my power . . . I would pay any price to be able to say truthfully: ‘All will…...

I Wish Heaven Had Visiting Hours

For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly dwelling, if indeed by putting it on we may not be found naked. For while we are still…...

Implausibility Structures

I still remember the lines from an old D.C. Talk cassette tape I had back in the day. If you're under the age of 30, I need to give a little context. A cassette tape was the equivalent of a musical file. It's what we used for "streaming" back in the nineties. It was about the size of an index…...

C.S. Lewis on the Modern Audience

In 1945, C.S. Lewis gave a talk to young ministers and youth workers in Wales. The title of his presentation was "Christian Apologetics." I recently returned to this talk and was reminded again how rich of a resource it indeed is. Lewis's outline of observations of his audience back is still helpful and insightful today. Lewis described the general population…...

Sure, if you take the military posture of some Old Testament passages and apply it to today you could justify that attitude. But that perspective doesn't fit the whole of the…...
