A Pastor and a Salesman Get into an Uber

Every time Bryan Sands got into his Dodge Grand Caravan, he prayed to God with a few requests: “Keep me accident-free, ticket-free, and grant me good conversations.” So he certainly wasn’t planning to cut off a cop in Hawaii. According to Sands, the patrolman walked to the window and announced his body cam was rolling. Read more. The post A Pastor and a Salesman Get into an Uber appeared first on Christianity Today

Homeownership is a Good Gift—But a Poor Savior

My grandfather’s claim to fame was that he worked at the dry cleaners that cleaned the uniforms of the Baltimore Orioles. It was a modest job, but it enabled him to support a household of nine and to become a proud homeowner. Growing up in a middle-class family in Baltimore, I was taught the value Read more.

Vacation Is The Modern Pilgrimage

We walked down stories of stairs into the earth. Our whispers echoed off the walls. At last, there it was: a wooden dock crouching over an underground pool of dazzling blue water. We had arrived at our first cenote. Cenotes occur naturally in Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, where my wife and I spent part of our Read more.

In April, nearly 1,000 youth gathered in a packed church hall in Ziro, a town in the mountains of India’s Arunachal Pradesh State, which borders China.

The Spiritual Reason Our Elderly Leaders Refuse to Give Up Power

This piece was adapted from Russell Moore’s newsletter. Subscribe here. Mitch McConnell is still alive, but our knowing that was subject to a weekslong filibuster.

Doug Wilson’s Household Voting Plan Could Empower Democrats for Decades

Doug Wilson is an Idaho pastor and author, a theocratic Christian nationalist—his terms—with a theatrical flair and a vulgar tongue. He founded his own denomination, which now includes Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, after making “so many enemies in Reformed circles that no denomination will have him.” Wilson began to make a national name for himself around 2008 through a Read more.

Old People Aren’t Doomed to Misery

Every week, our church prays for old people. Our elderly parishioners beg relief from their back and knee pains. They ask God to heal friends suffering from dementia and heart disease. They plead for their parents, now in their 90s and breaking their hips, their landlines riddled with robocalls. The younger worshipers among us have prayer Read more.

Suffering. Nobody wants it. And rarely can we make sense of it. That’s why, when life hurts, we often look for someone or some­thing to blame. Something is awry, and our pain needs somewhere to go. At times, there’s an easy target for our blame. Someone ran a red light, and their negligence is now Read more. The post Is God Punishing Me? appeared first on Christianity Today
