Validation Of Vice: The Consequence Of Instant Gratification
It’s amazing how much the world can change when you are offline for a few weeks. Between the assassination attempt on Trump and Biden stepping down, to the insane and heretical opening ceremony at the Olympics there is a lot to catch up on and talk about.
But before I dive into all of the insane things we have seen happening on the internet, I figured since I just experienced the shock of reintegrating into the internet world after being free from it, it would be a good time to talk about the negative effects that the internet has had on our culture and world, and how we can regain a correct perspective, rather than letting it control us.

Christians On Fire: Stuck In The Spiritual Infirmary
According to the National Fire Protection Association, there are far fewer house fires today than there were forty years ago. But despite this great achievement, other factors have caused the house fires that do happen to become arguably more dangerous than they used to be. Which begs the question, what are firefighters doing to adapt to these threats? And what does any of this have to do with Christianity?

Society of Slogans: The Enemy Of Critical Thinking
I have noticed that most dentist offices fill their walls with fun-looking and (supposedly) helpful messages to distract from the procedure you are about to endure.

The Through Line: Making "Sense" Of The Progressive Left
The author of the “Art of War” says that to know your enemy, you must become your enemy. While this idea has been around for quite some time, when those on the right side of the political aisle try to out think the left, they find themselves in a web of ideas that seem contradictory and irrational that leaves them floundering. But the conflicting logic that the left follows is both more simple than people realize, and far worse than the ideas themselves.

Things Not Seen: Everyone Lives By Faith
In the movie Indiana Jones and the Last crusade, one of the most compelling scenes is when Indy is rushing to retrieve the Holy Grail in order to save his dying father. But to reach it, he has to faces a series of challenges, the final of which requires him to cross a chasm which is too wide to swing or jump.

Check out how this applies to living by Faith by watching now!
