• Appeal Of Reality: How Men and Women Relate
    Nov 2 2024

    When it comes to how men and women relate to one another, what we hear in the news and on social media is a far cry from what people experience in their everyday lives. The way they describe how men and women should feel and act, both individually and towards one another, often leads people away from the fundamental reality of how men and women connect with one another, and how appealing that reality can be.

  • Vague & Unconvincing: Giving Better Christian Responses
    Sep 14 2024

  • Validation Of Vice: The Consequence Of Instant Gratification
    Aug 10 2024

    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
    Jun 7 2024

    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
    May 24 2024

    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. I have also realized that if you take the time to study these slogans on the wall, you’ll notice that even though you are reading words, they aren’t really saying much of anything.
