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.

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."

Almost Every Young Person Believes Truth and Morality are Relative

Almost Every Young Person Believes Truth and Morality are Relative: "We live in a world of cause and effect. People act on what they believe. Some people are more consistent than others. While there is a call for banning guns, the ban we really need is on the teaching of moral relativism and promoting it in every medium known to man, especially in our nation’s schools."
