    The real problem with environmental movements is that they begin with the earth, not with God's image and earth's steward--human beings.

    March 8, 2010 Caritas in Veritate The role of prophet is not and should not be an easy one. Human beings are, because of our fallen condition, rebellious and resistant to change. When someone tells us we are on the wrong path, we reflexively become defensive. “Who is he to tell me what I ...read more

    A look at various approaches to making ethical decisions.

    "Warnings & Consequences Of A Plumb Line”

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jul 16, 2024

    The O.T. Lesson is about God's "plumb line" and His judgments when His commandments are not followed. Herod had a "moral" problem, yet like listening to John the Baptist but would not change his behavior. the pressures of life can challenge our own "core" values.

     | 1,224 views

    Our Western world is suffused with moral and intellectual darkness; it’s like nearly everyone is blind, or walks around with an eyepatch over both eyes.

    Friday of the 11th Week in Course 2023 I had for about nine years the privilege of leading a Christian secondary school. One of the skills we taught in our writing classes was, as in many schools, how to write a resume for college applications. And, as principal, I got to read very many resumes ...read more

    What Is Truth?

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,230 views

    Fact-checking rates claims as true or false. Someone cannot determine what is true unless they claim to hold the keys to truth. Civil unrest often stems from a clash of truths. It's important to know the "real" source of truth.

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “What Is Truth?” based on a question posed by Pontius Pilate toward the end of our text. In the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, “truth” is defined as, “the body of real things, events, and facts.” It is also defined as “a transcendent fundamental or spiritual ...read more

    We all struggle with a "dual nature." We sort of like Bannon/The Hulk from the movies and comic books. It doesn't take much to move us away from Christ-likeness to self-interest and rebellion.
