In this episode, I share some thoughts about mainstream American Evangelicalism. I think we are all headed towards a reckoning where we will all be asked to die on the hill of Biblical Christianity or follow the culture in its downward spiral. How will it end?

All around the country we are seeing statues and symbols torn down. We are seeing people canceled, their lives destroyed. This is nothing new. It can be traced back to an ancient guilt ritual over 5,000 years old. Christ was the fulfillment of that ritual and the sacrifice for that guilt, and our country has forgotten Him.

When the "woke left" fights racism, they always become what they are fighting against. In this episode, I make a case for the much-derided, highly unpopular phrase "all lives matter." Why would I do something so insensitive and tone-deaf? Hear me out.

Why did racism and segregation against black Americans persist so long after the end of slavery? The answer is pretty shocking and disturbing, at least to me. Let's talk about it. In this episode:Why has racism persisted?Why I'm skeptical of "settled science" Polygenism v MonogenismDarwin enters the sceneThe Eugenics movement is bornHuman Zoos in America and the story of Ota BengaThe eugenicists who inspired HitlerHow the legacy of the scientific racism and eugenics movement still c...
Racism. Police Brutality. Rioting. Looting. Media Lies. (sigh...) Here's my obligatory response.
The Weekly Man-Hug is here! In this episode, let's talk about a most unpleasant yet essential subject: Hell. What is the orthodox view of hell? Is that view being abandoned? Why is this doctrine important?What does it teach us?
Atheists look at the universe and see vast, arbitrary, cold emptiness. I see something different. Here's why.
It's the weekly Man Hug! This week the Berry brothers talk about different types of meditation as a means for focusing on God and His word. This includes things like centering prayer and contemplative prayer. Is this stuff legit? Is it useful to the Christian?
