The Desecration of Cities Church
I was mad as a hornet when I saw what happened this morning to Cities Church, a Southern Baptist congregation in St. Paul, Minnesota. For those of you who haven’t seen the news, a group of leftist radicals shut down Cities Church’s worship service by shouting down the pastor, marching around the sanctuary yelling protests against ICE, and haranguing the men, women, and children who were gathered for worship. For a first person account of what happened, see the video below which was posted by one of the protesters. Please note the vile things coming out of the protester’s mouth and the terrified child being comforted by his father at…

Was Blind but Now I See – John 9:8-41
In my last message on John, we turned our attention John 9:1-7 which relays Jesus’ miracle of healing the beggar who had been born blind. The rest of the chapter is the aftermath of that miracle. In spite of the evidence Jesus provides them through the miracle, the Jewish leaders and some of the people aren’t going to see the truth. They are going to remain in the dark. But I would argue that the reason they don’t see is because they don’t want to see. What is the people’s response to Jesus’ miracle of healing a man born blind? I want to draw your attention to four “responses” that…

Answer Not a Kinist according to His Folly
There a number of race-baiting kinists, racial realists, and antisemites whose entire schtick consists in sowing error and division online among Christians. They live off of the error and controversy that they themselves manufacture. Do they have influence among a small section of the right? Yes. Must they be opposed whenever their teaching shows up in a church? Yes. Must pastors lead the way to exhort in sound doctrine and to refute those who contradict? Absolutely yes, yes, yes. But I think we need to be realistic about the best way to engage the bad actors mentioned above. Arguing with them online is exactly what they want. They are conflict…

Top 10 YouTubes of 2025
It’s time for my annual posting of the Top 10 YouTube Videos of the Year (see last year’s list here). This ranking is totally unscientific, and I gave up many years ago on limiting it to only ten videos. Also, it’s not only YouTube videos anymore, but I’m not changing the title because I’ve been doing it too long to change it now! Only one person was polled to compile this list—yours truly. This year’s slate of videos has both humor and humanity with some other odds and ends thrown in. If you think I’ve left something out, let me know. I’ll think about adding an “Honorable Mention” category at…

Those Walking in Darkness Have Seen a Great Light – John 9:1-7
As he passed by, he saw a man blind from birth. And his disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “It was not that this man sinned, or his parents, but that the works of God might be displayed in him. We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” Having said these things, he spit on the ground and made mud with the saliva. Then he anointed the man’s eyes…
