It was on a mini vacation with a few friends that I picked up the book. The vacation itself was nice; we had a good cabin in a relaxing area with plenty of water and trees surrounding us. As expected, area restaurants and stores were overpriced. While killing some time one day, we moseyed into […]
If you are an authentic Christ follower from the west, you are a rare person. Claiming to be Christian does not make you one. Being a Christian actually means something; it means a Christ follower. Today, the United States of America (further referred to as America) is considered more Christian than Europe, but when we […]

Infused within the months of October, November, and December is the holiday season. We as Christians seem to have a stark dichotomy in our approach to celebrating at least two of these: Christmas and Halloween. We can throw in the spring holidays of Easter (called Pasha) and Saint Patrick’s Day too. The disparity is that […]
Skeptics, in an attempt to discredit the Bible, ask a burning question. Who did Cain marry? If Adam and Eve were the first, and only, people on earth, who did their son, Cain, marry? Obviously, Cain couldn’t have been wifeless because the account said he had a wife and she had kids; plus, we are […]
The world is full of injustice; monsters of men love to hurt, kill, and destroy. Christian teaching stands diametrically opposed to such injustice. Today we have something called “social justice” that seems to stand sided-by-side of biblical justice. Originally, social justice may have been authentic justice applied to society, as some argue (such as Jerry […]
Canadian pastors are now being imprisoned for opening churches, for the “health and safety” of the community. Persecution really is on the rise in the West, but it is not new. It has been a long-standing issue, even in the West, for people who leave Islam. They have a constant risk of persecution by Muslims. […]
This is the season when we remember and celebrate Jesus’ death and resurrection. Just in time for this season, I released a new apologetics book. Adapted for this article, you can see a sneak preview of the book from chapter 16. Before we get the sample, however, let’s just introduce the book. The title and […]
February 12th was Darwin Day, a day when many celebrate Charles Darwin and promote Darwinian evolution. Thus, I thought this time of the year would be a great opportunity to address a line of “evidence” for Darwinism called “evolutionary engineering.” When I first heard about it, it sounded like an oxymoron. As I read up […]
Cultural events over the past months have been front-burner issues. From politics, business, technology, economics, media, science and the humanities, we have been inundated with culture issues. In opposition to some who would think that Christians should abstain from cultural controversy, I think we are some of the best equipped to think about this topic. […]
Imagine being in Joseph’s shoes, or I should say sandals. Mary informs him she’s pregnant, but she says it’s OK because it was “supernaturally” caused. Really? He’s no dummy. He knows quite well how pregnancy starts. So, being the type of guy he was, he decided to call the marriage off. That changed, however, when […]
