There are lessons for Western democracies and the Church from Australia's contentious Voice referendum
Although the Voice referendum will hardly register outside Australia, despite all the hyperbole, it was important and there are lessons to be learned for all Western democracies and the Church.
Pray and weep for Israel
there are some basic principles we should all be able to put into practice when we reflect and comment on these issues.
The Marquis de Sade â the progressive prophet?
In order to understand the times we live in, it is essential that we know where we have come from.
Bringing up children in a post-Christian world
It is not the hostility of the culture. It is not the education system. It is not social media. It is not peer pressure. The primary factor is the inability of parents to pass on their faith â and the failure of churches to equip parents to do so.
The paedophile editor and the sound of silence
It's a strange world where you can go to jail for misgendering someone, but purchasing and watching real child abuse only deserves a slap on the wrist.
What does the case of baby killing nurse Lucy Letby tell us about our society?
Our confused society can hardly define evil, let alone deal with it.
The Jesus Revolution is needed today
The Jesus Movement peaked in 1972, but its effects are still with us today.
Was the coronation sermon any good?
The coronation of King Charles III was unquestionably a great opportunity to proclaim the Gospel in front of billions and it was set up beautifully. But the confusing and banal nature of the sermon means that it must be marked down as a missed golden opportunity.
Dear King Charles
In your coronation oath you are going to solemnly promise "to the utmost of your power maintain the Laws of God and the true profession of the Gospel". And to "the utmost of your power maintain in the United Kingdom the Protestant Reformed Religion established by law". These are solemn promises. We pray that our gracious God will help you fulfil them.
The Nashville shooting â a window to America's soul
The Resurrection is the answer to the hopelessness of the Nashville shooting. Preach Him!
What does the election of Scotland's new Muslim First Minister mean for the Church in Scotland?
Why should we be concerned? Not because Yousaf is a Muslim. No, we should be concerned because of his authoritarian tendencies
Why has conversion therapy become a major election issue in Scotland?
The proposed conversion therapy laws are nothing to do with preventing abhorrent and abusive practices. They are everything to do with imposing an ideology upon the whole population.
Why is same-sex marriage an issue in the election of the new Scottish First Minister?
If the top candidate for a job is effectively excluded for being a Christian, then we have moved into a really dark place.
Kate Forbes: Would a Christian be permitted to lead Scotland?
Events in Scotland suggest that there is one group who are in effect banned from meaningful political leadership â Christians who actually believe what Jesus says!
What does the future hold for England's church-state relations?
As contemporary Western society drifts from its Christian foundations, we will find an increasingly authoritarian state backed by a largely compliant media, a woke corporate business sector, and an academia which has lost all concept of truth, all seeking to make sure that the church is on 'the right side of history' â their side!
The last nail in the Church of England's coffin?
If the Church of England wants to know its future, as it now inevitably follows the trajectory towards same-sex marriage (and more), then they need only look over the border to the Church of Scotland.
