The Evangelical Outpost (formerly Joe Carter’s blog) has just re-launched with a brand new website and a new team of authors, including myself. I will be contributing articles on Christianity and culture, Theology, the state of the Evangelical church (and where it’s heading), and maybe the occasional dash of politics.
For my first [...]

The Same Old Fairy Tales: Atheism And Sex

Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow you die.
In a nutshell, this is all atheism has to offer. Now, just because Christianity promises a blissful afterlife, that doesn’t make it true or atheism false. But there is something deeper than a mere denial of an afterlife in this famous sentiment. “Eat, drink, [...]

Apparently it’s become extremely popular in a relatively short amount of time, everyone’s been talking about it (Newsweek, Rolling Stone, etc.), [...]

My wife and I watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire this past weekend. After the movie was over I actually caught myself thinking, “Man! When do I get to fight in a life-or-death battle with my own Lord Voldemort?!” Now, it would be easy to think that such a sentiment [...]
