Dr. Mohler Reviews My Book
Dr. Mohler has posted a quick review of my book.

Church Discipline
The Wall Street Journal recently ran an article critical of the practice of church discipline.

In any congregation, it’s likely that some have near-perfect pitch while others are functionally tone-deaf. Those who struggle to sing may be self-conscious, tempted to stay quiet or to do no more than…

I have been through more airports than I can count1 and find they all kind of blur together—jetways, corridors, escalators, luggage belts. But for some reason, I remembered this one from my previous visit. After exiting the secure area, I…
