How God Wants Us To React To Persecution And Sin -- Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: March/April, 2024)
Open your Bibles to 1 Peter 3:13-17. Consider the intriguing question found in verse 13. If we are zealous for what is good, who is there to harm us? The implication seems to be that harm would naturally come upon us if we are zealous for what is bad instead of being passionate about what is good. Granted, persecution comes even while doing good; oftentimes it comes specifically because we do…

Why Does God Allow Pain And Suffering? -- Jameson Steward
The problem of pain and suffering is, for some people, their biggest obstacle to believing in God. Their thinking goes something like this: if God is completely good, knows everything, and is all powerful – then why is there so much evil, pain, and suffering in this world? Is God unwilling to prevent suffering? Does He not know about all the suffering in this world? Or is He just powerless to…

Is The Bible God's Word? -- David W. Hester
How shall we view the Bible? Is it just one of many “holy books”—no better or worse than, say, the Qu’ran of Islam, the Reg Veda of Hinduism, or the Book of Mormon? Is it nothing more than an outstanding piece of literature—on par with the works of Shakespeare, “inspired” in the way that any great literary work is composed? Or, is the Bible something much more—the very Word of God itself? The way…

"I Have Heard You"
Jeremiah the prophet said to them, “I have heard you. Behold, I will pray to the Lord your God according to your request, and whatever the Lord answers you I will tell you. I will keep nothing back from you.”
Jeremiah 42:4
Preachers, this verse is a good guide for us. We need to listen to the people to whom we preach. Certainly, we must do this within the guidelines of Galatians 1:10,…

Did The Resurrection Happen? -- Dean Meadows
If someone asked, “Why do you believe Jesus rose from the grave?” What would your answer be? In my thirteen years of ministry, the standard answers to this question are, “It says so in the Bible,” and “I’ve always been taught it was true.” In an ever-growing secular society that doubts religious claims and believes religion cannot provide foundational truths, it is essential that Christians can…

Did Jesus Of Nazareth Exist? -- Dewayne Bryant, Ph.D.
Scholars consider the historicity of Jesus a settled issue. This holds true for believers who have a vested interest in the historical Jesus as well as non-Christian scholars who have no religious faith at all. Unfortunately, the Internet has provided a fertile breeding ground for conspiracy theories and bizarre notions about persons and events mentioned in the pages of Scripture. They typically…

Does God Exist? -- Jovan Payes
There is no greater worldview question that divides humans so sharply than the following: does God exist? As a Christian, I believe there are many good reasons to assert that God does exist. This short piece offers a brief overview of these arguments for the existence of the Christian God.
The Case For The Christian God
The average Christian may think arguing for the existence of God is…

Letting Our Light Shine In An Election Year -- Jon Mitchell, Editor (Editorial: January/February, 2024)
As 2024 begins, so also begins another election year in the United States. Thus, it is fitting to “stir you up by way of reminder” and bring out some basic scriptural directives and principles from our Lord concerning how we as Christians should speak and act during the politically polarizing times in which we live.
Christ’s dictate to “let your light shine before others, so that they may see…

The Butt-Shermer Debate On The Existence Of God -- David W. Hester
On October 25 2023, a debate was held on the campus of Faulkner University. This alone would have made news, but both the topic and the participants drew even more attention. Kyle Butt of Apologetics Press affirmed the existence of God, and Michael Shermer of the Skeptics Society denied. The story of how this debate came to be is interesting.
In the spring of 2022, Mitch Henry became the…

The School of Grace -- Steve Cordle
An old country music song has a line in it that says, “I never back down and I love a good challenge!” A good challenge is what Titus encountered on the Isle of Crete…or a bad challenge, depending on your perspective. After all, if the name of your town is also used to describe really bad people, you know that a preacher is going to have his work cut out for him! In that situation, Titus was…
