It fascinates me that in 2026, this kind of rhetoric still persists in some corners of the Christian church.

Women should have the right to vote in U.S. politics, but should not be allowed to interpret Scripture — Al Mohler (Southern Baptist Convention).

What do these guys do with Priscilla, Junia, Phoebe, Lois, Eunice, Euodia, Syntyche, Mary Magdalene, and the Women at the Tomb, et al.?

Why do they want to restrict women in ministry? Is it simply their understanding of Scripture (two verses taken out of context), or do they feel insecure and threatened?

Please discuss.

It’s one of many theories that describe what Jesus achieved on the cross.

It states that God’s wrath against our sins was appeased through Christ’s crucifixion.

I no longer believe this, and my latest blog explains why I changed my mind. The Parable of the Prodigal was immensely helpful.

I’ve been reflecting on the Prodigal Son story recently. It’s an amazing parable that seems to encapsulate Jesus’ message of...

A new report by two Christian organisations is raising alarms about the impact of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation effort on families.

More than 1 million people could be “torn apart” from their families if current immigration policies continue at the expected rate.

They are “not saying that all deportations are unjust or unwarranted,” but cite Scripture to argue that “Jesus makes abundantly clear that what God has joined together in marriage, human institutions should not separate.”
