As Covid-19 continues to spread around the world as the pandemic that it is, I can’t help but think, this is your time to shine, faith healer. Surely, we don’t need quarantines or sheltering in place if the faith healers are on the move and expressing dominion over the Coronavirus. This is what you were born for, is it not? You need not hide, oily-fingered, behind the confines of the television screen. Why not drive the virus out, say, from… Read more

Suffering and the Maturation of the Soul
March 27, 2020 By Grayson Gilbert
1 Comment
Few doctrines within Christendom tend to make people bristle as much as the doctrine of suffering. While there are many doctrines that divide, this is perhaps one of the more unilateral doctrines that unites Christians of various denominational stripes. The reason I say this is simply due to the fact that many are averse to teaching on suffering, even within my own Reformed-ish world. In some respects, at least within the context of the Western world that I am part… Read more

Free Theological Resources Omnibus
March 24, 2020 By Grayson Gilbert

Over the past several years I have amassed a wealth of free resources for furthering your study of the Bible. My hunt for good, free resources first began prior to me becoming a Christian. To make a long story short, I was an atheist reading through the Bible to try and disprove the Bible, but I recognized there was often a disparity present between what many popularizers claimed the Scriptures were saying and what I was actually reading for myself….

Christians, COVID-19, and the Dangerous Idol of Personal Safety
March 19, 2020 By Jack Lee

As I stated in an article a few weeks ago, people all over the world are being affected by the coronavirus (COVID-19). In just a couple of weeks, we have seen the number of positive cases swell all over the world. Truly, this is a unique time and it seems that more strange days loom ahead. Not since World War 2 has America seen such Government-enforced measures. While the world scrambles to find a vaccine, manufacture hospital supplies, slow the… Read more

There Are Worse Things Than Death
March 12, 2020 By Grayson Gilbert
1 Comment
There has been no shortage of commentary on the spread of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) since it has taken hold of the public’s eyes. I find things like this fascinating because it truly reveals much about humanity. On the one hand, you have those who make light of the entire thing; they crack jokes as a means to cope, or they are completely nonplussed. On the other, there are some driven into varying degrees of anxiety and worry over what may… Read more

Martin Luther and His Incredible Response to the Black Plague
March 5, 2020 By Grayson Gilbert
18 Comments
Any number of reactions happen when one hears the name of Martin Luther mentioned. For some, they picture Martin Luther approaching the Wittenberg Castle Church door with heroic boldness in order to nail his 95 Theses to the door and spark the Protestant Reformation (whether historically accurate or not). For others, they think of his stand at the Diet of Worms before Charles V, where he said when asked to recant, “I cannot and will not recant of anything, for… Read more

Why Christians Should Not Panic Over the Coronavirus
March 2, 2020 By Jack Lee
51 Comments
Unless something unprecedented happens, all indicators are that most who read this will have their lives impacted in some way by the Coronavirus within 2020. If not by contracting the virus first-hand then, at the very least, by its impact on the stock market and global economy. I have read some projections to give any sensible person moderate concerns. For others, it’s enough to induce severe anxiety and paralyzing fear. Yet, my aim is to convince you that of all peoples, Christians ought to look at such times clarity, hope, and peace. The last thing we should do is panic. Read more

Philippians 4:13 is Not About Your Life Goals
February 25, 2020 By Grayson Gilbert
3 Comments
Philippians 4:13 is likely one of the most misquoted, misapplied, and misunderstood passages within the New Testament. Suffice it to say, it is not about how one can literally do anything they put their minds to simply because they are in Christ. Paul has a specific context in mind here—and it is not about attaining your personal goals and aspirations, developing a healthy conception of self-worth, nor is it designed to be a coping mechanism to deal with the grit… Read more
