Tim Ballard, Sound of Freedom

Tim Ballard is a Christian man who exemplifies the protective manhood qualities of Accountability, Action, and Authority in A Prism of Manhood. His mission is to help the least of these: children who have been kidnapped and sold into situations of slavery, abuse, torture, and organ harvesting. He’s a true hero who continues to make […]

Andrew Tate, Positive Instruction, Silent Conquest

Andrew Tate isn’t all bad. He preaches a positive message of manhood which is magnetic to men and women alike. Contrary to what popular culture would have us believe, many women (in addition to men) would prefer a culture with strong men and strong women who appreciate strong (and I’d add biological) men.  The West […]

Andrew Tate, Dangerous Masquerade

Andrew Tate is dangerous, but not for the same reasons as he is experiencing house arrest in Romania.  He is charged with human-trafficking of women through social media using the “lover boy method.” No, Andrew Tate is dangerous—even more so than Mike Tyson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali, and Shaquille O’Neal before him.  He’s more […]

A Prism of Manhood

The Andrew Tate interview by Tucker Carlson. The Sound of Freedom movie. The SBC vote on clarifying the pastorate.  What do these 3 recent societal events have in common? They form a prism of manhood that discerning people (men and women alike) cannot help but notice.  Three perspectives on the manhood problem facing modern culture.  I […]

A Royal Priesthood

We’re not just a holy priesthood. We’re also a royal priesthood.  This is a particularly important phrase.  Back in the days of Genesis, there was a first royal priest, the king of Salem, Melchizedek. A king (of peace, the meaning of Salem), but he was also a priest. Genesis 14:18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem […]

The Holiness of a Holy Priesthood

Our identity in Christ is not just our being living stones in the spiritual house He is building.  In Scripture it says, there’s a purpose: 1 Peter 2: 5 you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. […]

The Case of God’s Love

How far does God’s love extend?  It is as wide as the Church universal (the entire community of redeemed Image-bearers, rescued from every corner and former faith tradition into Christ’s spiritual house) and as personal as you and me (living stones and individual Image-bearers whom God knows personally).  But… When Scripture says in John 3:16 […]

A Holy Priesthood

We aren’t built into a spiritual house to be nothing and do nothing.  This spiritual house, Scripture says, is to be a holy priesthood. “As you come to him, the living Stone– rejected by humans but chosen by God and precious to him– you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house […]

Living Stones

To Jesus who is the living Stone, God’s Chosen and Precious Cornerstone, His view is that the Church and its faithful are not just a jar of identical marbles.  Each man, woman, and child is individual–and is as individual as each person’s decision to follow Christ. This fact is proven by unique gifting from the […]

You are Family

Now that I’ve risked making YOU feel like YOU are unimportant, let me correct back to who YOU are that God would send Jesus as payment for your sins.  He loves you and in Christ, you are family.  This love is powerful and salvific. What kind of love is that? Scripture says in 1 John […]
