Thoughts on the 250th Anniversary of America: Why the French Revolution’s Goddess of Liberty Needed a Guillotine (And America’s God Didn’t)

Edmund Burke, in his Reflections on the Revolution in France, identified a telling difference between sound political order and revolutionary excess. Radicals, he observed, pledge their primary loyalty to grand abstractions (liberty, equality, fraternity, the “rights of man”) treated as self-evident metaphysical principles to be imposed regardless of circumstance, history, or human frailty. Conservatives (or prudent reformers), by contrast, maintain loyalty to concrete person

You Can Name Jesus Correctly and Still Miss Him

Peter gave one of the greatest confessions in the Bible: “You are the Christ of God.” He used exactly the right words. He recognized Jesus as the long-awaited Messiah sent by God. Yet Jesus did not simply affirm him and move on. Instead, He immediately began to correct Peter’s understanding. Peter had the right title, but he did not yet understand what that title required. He wanted a Messiah who would bring political deliverance and national glory. He was not ready for a Mes

Poisoning the Wells: Why Character Assassination Is Satan’s Most Effective Weapon

Character assassination is one of the most destructive forces in Satan’s arsenal because it dismantles the very foundation of persuasion. Consider this: A person may possess extraordinary logos (profound knowledge, sharp intellect, and the rare ability to articulate truth with clarity and precision). They may also carry remarkable pathos (the emotional depth, sincerity, and charisma that can stir hearts and move people toward conviction). Yet if their character (ethos) is suc

Precious Family of God, It is with a heavy heart for those of us who remain here on earth that we inform you that our true sister in the faith, Brittany Duggan, has passed into glory Tuesday night. And yet it is with joy that on this Holy Week, as we celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus, we realize that she is partaking of the greatest Easter celebration—one that was beyond her earthly imagination. The King is there, and she is in the presence of Almighty God. Choirs

The Name Above All Names

[8] And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. [9] Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, [10] so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, [11] and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Transcript Excerpt from Sunday Morning March 15, 2026) "Paul declares he

This is all I’ve ever understood it to mean, and consequently I’ve never had a problem with the term.

Visited the old homestead this week and been flooded with memories of the incredible life God crafted for our family when I was a child.

Timely given that I just recently preached on the transfiguration at CPC.

All that goodness is not gone. It is not only in the past. Those days will be renewed again one day. Renewed and improved beyond anything we can conceive. A great reunion awaits with those who have passed.

Christ was transfigured on the mountain so that we might be transfigured too. The glory Peter, James, and John saw wasn’t an escape from suffering. It confirmed that the cross was necessary and that real glory waits on the other side.

Moses and Elijah appeared in glory, alive and talking with Jesus about His coming death and resurrection. The Law and the Prophets stood there giving honor to the One they had always pointed toward.

Then the cloud of God’s presence overshadowed them, and the voice from heaven declared, “This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him.” When everything faded, “Jesus was found alone.”

All of redemptive history funnels down to this one Person. The Transfiguration shows us that glory and suffering are not enemies in God’s plan. They are joined in Christ.

I’ve been holding onto this hope this year: our trials are not the end of the story.
May the same glory that shone on Jesus begin to shine in us as we listen to Him
