Last week at the Innovative Evangelism Conference, I got a chance to hear Dinesh D’Souza speak to a standing room only crowd. Many in the crowd were fellow evangelists, but there were a few seekers and skeptics present as well. Dinesh D’Souza…
I liked the ring of that headline and you’ll see how it fits in a moment. But actually, I thought Victor Davis Hanson’s piece on Palin was four stars. Well, three and a half anyway. VDH sets out to answer two questions: 1) What drives this fear and loathing? 2) How does one, then, assess the Palin [...]
Writing in her "On Faith" column, Sally Quinn is clearly out of her depth:Sarah Palin's 'rogue' Christianity In her new book Sarah Palin writes that one summer at Bible Camp she "put my life in my creator's hands and trust Him as I sought my life's path." For Palin, this grand divine plan was "a natural progression." She writes.

Archbishop of Canterbury must show muscular Christianity Commentary by Ruth Gledhill From The Times http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/faith/article6922397.ece November 19, 2009 The Archbishop of Canterbury has displayed a munificent turning of the other cheek in response to what many see as a move by the Pope to annex part of his Church. No one doubts his Christian holiness. But a bit more...
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. Ephesians 2:8-10 (KJV)
I heard on the news recently, that some right-winger's have been protesting homosexuality near one of the local universities.....carrying signs saying it's a sin. Riiiight. Gender preference is a sin? So, like, these morons really think that homosexuality is a choice? It's like a vending machine? Really? Of course, these are the same America morons who think that evolution doesn't exist, and treat...
I really enjoyed this little article from Ruth Gledhill over at the Times. I would however extend the sentiment to all Christians. We need backbone! A fearless, unashamed love of Jesus. In the mind of the populace, Jesus is the meek and mild babe in the manger, non-judgemental and rather soft, but in reality, He is [...]
A Russian Orthodox priest known for his outspoken criticism of Islam and attempts to convert Muslims to Christianity has been assassinated in his Moscow church.
Among other things, Eagleton's Reason, Faith, and Revolution: Reflections on the God Debate (The Terry Lectures Series) is such a joy to read because of his brilliant deconstruction of Christopher Hitchens's obnoxious God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything : " Hitchens seems to hold the obscure Jewish sect of the second-century BC known as the Maccabees responsible not only for the...
It's been observed that the gap between the Anglican Church and Catholicism is not wide but deep. The Archbishop of Canterbury's speech at the Gregorian Pontifical University uncovered the real depth of the divide. The Archbishop defended women's ordination and argued that more unites the two churches than divides them. He said issuess that are not of the 'first order' should not be points of division...
Having been a lefty myself for more decades than I care to admit, it never ceases to amaze me - now that I've come over to the Dark Side - that lefties so often feel entitled to opine on subjects about which they know nothing, or next to nothing. David Limbaugh: Perhaps [Sally] Quinn wouldn't be so smug [On Faith: Sarah Palin's 'rogue' Christianity] if she were to do the slightest bit of thinking or...
It seems that Chuck Colson has gathered together a group of right-wing activists and clergy for something called the "Manhattan Declaration: A Call of Christian Conscience" in order to create a unified front in fighting the culture war : The manifesto, to be released on Friday at the National Press Club in Washington, is an effort to rejuvenate the political alliance of conservative Catholics...

I have never been religious, but here I am with Mercy Streets , a film produced by ChristianCinema.com with themes of redemption and rebirth. Yet Christianity doesn't play much of a role in the qualities of the film. Even with little to no understanding of the Bible and despite a hokey plot riddled with clichés, the first 60 minutes of Mercy Streets are surprisingly good, especially for a film that...
The very lovely Rachel Weisz is in Spain to promote Agora in which she plays Hypatia: A historical drama set in Roman Egypt, concerning a slave who turns to the rising tide of Christianity in the hopes of pursuing freedom while also falling in love with his master, the famous female philosophy professor and atheist Hypatia of Alexandria.
