Philip Schroeder writes a touching tribute to his dad.

A Quiet Paranoia Haunts Post-Weinstein Hollywood

“Week five of the great reckoning and Hollywood is frightened and lost, drifting deeper into uncharted waters with no script, no direction and no sense how it will end. Scandal was always part of the entertainment industry, a ritualised process of rumours, denials and hush money, publicists and fixers, banishment and redemption.

They tend to look at certain doctrines of the faith with great suspicion or even abhorrence. Among those is the substitutionary atonement of Christ.”

What Does “Coram Deo” Mean?

Few phrases have taken a more central place in my life than “Coram Deo” (which R.C. Sproul explains here). You can read Do More Better to find out how and why!

Flashback: God Actually Spoke to Me

It is God’s joy to communicate to each one of his children in the most personal and intimate way. Our Father speaks to us. He speaks clearly and he speaks personally. He really does.

“I know God forgives me, but I can’t forgive myself” means you’ve failed an idol, whose approval is more important than God’s.

—Tim Keller
