The Afghanistan crisis: 7 things to consider
The debacle unfolding before our eyes is as defining as 9/11 and the worst defeat for the US since Vietnam, and possibly since the Second World War. Why is it so important? And why should the Church care about it?
The Scottish government is determined to advance trans ideology - and it's our children who will suffer
This is not about oppressing those who suffer from gender dysphoria and need proper help. This is about the abuse of children.
Why is the Scottish government telling people to wear masks in churches but not nightclubs?
This has nothing to do with 'the science' and everything to do with what the government thinks it can get away with.
John Lennon's hopeless humanist hymn, "Imagine", is the wrong song for the Olympics
After yet another Olympic appearance, it seems as though "Imagine" has become the secular humanist hymn for our times, the godless prayer that must be uttered on any occasion â sometimes even by Christian clergy.
Would Jesus wear a mask?
In the good old days, churches used to split over issues like wearing hats, speaking in tongues, or having guitars in worship. Today we fight over wearing masks.
Mark Driscoll, Mars Hill and the lessons still being learned
There is a surprising new podcast which is storming the podcast charts throughout the English-speaking Christian world. Like all new 'you have to listen to this' podcasts I was sceptical. But for once the hype is accurate.
The Pride of England â sport, Christianity and nationalism
It's all very well the English dressing as crusaders, the Danish as Vikings and the Scots singing about winning a battle 700 years ago. But when we cross the line from language, myths and emotions from the distant past, and turn them into life-or-death issues for the present, we have gone too far.
Is Islamophobia rampant in Scotland?
We have the opportunity to speak the truth in love to our Muslim neighbours. Let us pray that our politicians don't make this a hate crime.
The marriage madness in Methodism
May God grant repentance and a return to the Gospel of the Wesleys and Whitefield â the Gospel of the apostles, the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Why the corporate boycott of GB News is bad news for the Church
We need to speak up for tolerance, diversity, and equality, before those who misuse these glorious concepts end up taking them away from us.
Is the Church now the Green Party at prayer?
The Church should not be treating the Extinction Rebellion doctrines as Holy Writ.
Be warned: the slippery slope of euthanasia is real
Euthanasia is going to be the moral issue of the next couple of years but we only need to look at Belgium and the Netherlands to see where this is going.
Social media promises equality and diversity - except for Christians
To abuse someone on the basis of their religion is against Twitter's rules. Unless apparently you are a Christian.
The Israel-Palestine conflict: what's it all about?
David Robertson examines the background to the latest fighting and offers some suggestions for how Christians should approach it.
Lessons from the UK elections for Church and society
The UK was born on the basis not just of a united politics and economics, but also a united religion â Protestantism â what we might now call evangelicalism. That is certainly no longer true, but the question is now whether the UK can long survive without its Christian foundations?
Woke capitalism is a threat to the world and the Church
Unelected and unaccountable super rich business executives should not be able to run countries or determine a nation's values, writes David Robertson.
