Home Educating with Confidence – Book Review

      Comments Off on Home Educating with Confidence – Book Review

Most of us have said at one time "Why doesn't someone write a book about _______ ?" I've said that about homeschooling and parenting. Having read dozens of books on parenting and homeschooling and experiencing fatherhood first hand for 14+ years, I felt there was still a need for a book that better combined the principles of parenting with practical… Read more »

How Should We Then Vote?

      Comments Off on How Should We Then Vote?

During this election year, I am revisiting the challenging topic of how Christians should vote. This is a complex issue which deserves book-length treatment. Here’s the briefest of sketches of my thoughts thus far. The scripture references are not exhaustive lists. They’re meant to help you with your own study. Your comments and critique of this article are most welcome…. Read more »

After High School?

      Comments Off on After High School?

Since our oldest is 17 and nearing the end of the ‘high school’ years, we are starting to get questions about where she’ll go to college or what’s planned after ‘high school’.  I believe you never ‘finish school’ and therefore never really ‘graduate’.  Everyone should be always learning and actively engaged in reading, writing, and developing skills. Instead of graduation… Read more »

Lower Education

      Comments Off on Lower Education

Three more bits of evidence supporting my contention that the typical modern college experience is harmful for Christians. There is overwhelming political bias on campuses. Affirmative action is shamelessly practiced, the ROTC and military recruiters are banned, “heteronormativity” is rebuked, atheism and skepticism are the norm, Marxism and socialism are held in high regard, and males are outnumbered by females… Read more »

Physics The Easy Way – Review

      Comments Off on Physics The Easy Way – Review

Physics seems formidable to many, but this book does truly make it much easier to understand. “Easy” is relative, but this is the best book I’ve found for high school homeschoolers. It has plenty of real math problems so it’s not a dumbed down “story” of physics. Rather, it takes you slowly from easy concepts to more advanced. Anyone who… Read more »

The Bible Made Impossible – Book Review

      Comments Off on The Bible Made Impossible – Book Review

I’ve previously encountered Christian Smith in several recorded interviews with Ken Myers and in his book Souls in Transition. These were a delight to hear and read. I was intrigued when I learned in a recent interview that Dr. Smith was writing a book about how the Bible could be made ‘impossible’ and that the culprit was biblicism. For a… Read more »

Getting Married: Dating? Courtship? Betrothal?

      Comments Off on Getting Married: Dating? Courtship? Betrothal?

Rightly regarding the dart throwing approach of serial, casual dating as sinful and unhealthy, many Christians have opted for a ‘courtship’ approach. Though a nice, traditional title, the details of courtship have left many young Christians as confused as ever. Confused and seeing the rampant divorce culture, many remain fearful and linger indefinitely unmarried as they age beyond early adulthood… Read more »
