How should Christians respond to the "War on Christmas"?: "Answer: Many people perceive that there is a concerted effort to eliminate the word “Christmas” from public discourse—sort of a “war on Christmas.” The stories seem to be coming more frequently: a grade-school choir sings “We Wish You a Happy Holiday” instead of “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” for their “Winter Concert"

On The Box: Words of Comfort: The Redcoats (part 1)
On The Box: Words of Comfort: The Redcoats (part 1): "It’s strange that more people don’t ask themselves why Jews are hated. When I researched for my book, Hitler, God, and the Bible I wept my way through the Holocaust. I saw pictures that left me in horror at the cruelty of mankind…pictures so horrific in nature I don’t want to even describe them"

How Much Do Americans Know About Christmas?: "When I was kid a long, long, long time ago in a state far, far, far away, everyone knew that Christmas was the celebration of the birth of Jesus. Yes, we had Santa and presents and a tree, but the main focus was still on Christ."

You Asked: Can I Pray to Jesus? – The Gospel Coalition Blog
You Asked: Can I Pray to Jesus? – The Gospel Coalition Blog: "Many Christians pray to Jesus. But are they right to do so? It's certainly a good question. I believe there are at least two sound reasons to pray to Jesus---one theological and one scriptural."

Who Wrote Mark?
Who Wrote Mark?: "One of the things the atheists like to destroy is the New Testament. Without anything positive to offer themselves, they feel obliged to de-construct the authority of the New Testament if they can. A favorite way to do this is to try to show that the New Testament is a much edited, late cut and paste job by people unknown which has very little to do with the historical Jesus."

TGC Mobile | Article | God Is Working Behind the Scenes in Greece
TGC Mobile | Article | God Is Working Behind the Scenes in Greece: "The dull whine of the motorbike's engine was the only sound that marred an otherwise pristine setting. Though off-season for the Greek island of Aegina, this October day offered everything the throngs of tourists sought on their holiday only a few months earlier. The sun sparkled off the clear water of the Aegean, the Mediterranean breeze was light and wispy, and the temperature was such that you never noticed it. My friend Jim and I had rented motorbikes from an Albanian man who offered the best price on the island, even if they did sputter a bit. We jumped on the island's main road that runs along the coast and took in the views. Eventually we began winding up one of the many mountains toward what is said to be the jewel in the crown of Aegina---the Temple of Aphaea. We rounded the final bend, parked the bikes, and climbed up the hill towards the temple."
