He was the greatest dad ever, and now, as I’m reflecting on my father’s passing from life into greater life, I can only think of the great hope we have and the high spiritual stakes we face, we who remain following Christ and making his name kn
I had a most interesting conversation on Thursday with Brandan Robertson, who is a leading spokesman for gay and progressive Christianity, on everything from the character of Jesus, to the nature of the Bible, to Christianity’s connection to sl
