Restoring the Unity of Christ
As we continue our walk in 2025, the call for unity among believers echoes with renewed urgency against a backdrop of division and discord. Recent events—heated debates over cultural issues like gender ideology, political endorsements from pulpits, and even violent acts like the tragic shootings in Utah, North Carolina, and Michigan—have fractured communities and strained the testimony of the church. On platforms like X, Christians clash over interpretations of Scripture, with some embracing progressive theologies that dilute biblical truth, while others cling to traditions that risk becoming rigid relics. The church today, much like in centuries past, finds itself splintered, chasing "union" through compromise rather than the true unity Christ envisioned. Yet, in Ephesians 4:1-6, Paul pleads for a unity rooted in one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God—a unity that mirrors the first-century church and demands our return to the unchanging…
Shadows in the Sanctuary
In the span of just a few weeks this September 2025, our nation has been gripped by a chilling wave of violence that strikes at the heart of community and conviction alike. On September 10, Charlie Kirk, the outspoken conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, was gunned down mid-sentence while addressing students at Utah Valley University in Provo. The suspect, facing capital murder charges in an upcoming hearing, turned a campus forum into a scene of unthinkable tragedy, silencing a voice that had long championed biblical values amid cultural storms. Barely three weeks later, on September 28, two more horrors unfolded in rapid succession: In Southport, North Carolina, a 40-year-old Marine veteran named Nigel Max Edge pulled his boat alongside the bustling American Fish Company waterfront bar and unleashed a hail of bullets, killing three patrons and wounding eight others in what authorities described as a highly premeditated act of rage. And in Grand Blanc, Michigan,…
Living for God in a Worldly Age
In a world filled with glittering distractions and endless pursuits, it's easy to get caught up in the chase. From the latest gadgets that promise to make life easier to the social media feeds that showcase lives of luxury and achievement, the pull of the material realm is strong. I've often found myself scrolling through images of far-off vacations or envying the success stories of others, only to pause and wonder: Is this what life is truly about? The apostle John, writing to early Christians facing similar temptations in a pagan society, offers a stark warning about our relationship with the world. It's a message that cuts through the noise, reminding us that as followers of Christ, our allegiance lies elsewhere—not in the fleeting allure of earthly things, but in the eternal will of God.
A Voice Silenced
It was with a heavy heart that I read the news of Charlie Kirk's tragic death just over a week ago, on September 10, 2025, during an event at Utah Valley University. The young conservative activist, known for his bold defense of traditional values and Christian principles, was fatally shot in front of an audience he was addressing. The suspect, a 22-year-old named Tyler Robinson, has been charged with capital murder, and authorities are seeking the death penalty. In a world increasingly hostile to voices that challenge the cultural tide, this act of violence strikes close to home for those of us who strive to live out biblical truth. As I pondered this senseless loss, I couldn't help but reflect on how such events echo the warnings and encouragements found in Scripture, reminding us that standing for righteousness often comes at a great cost.
