In the next two weeks, I am spending some time reading various things on abortion. As I’ve read thus far, I’ve been (once again) absolutely appalled at the numbers behind this evil and lamentable reality. Given the current moment we live in, and the approaching presidential election, I thought it would be worthwhile to cite…
I’ve always found Wayne Grudem to write on any subject in an orderly fashion, soaked in the Bible, and (often) persuasively presented.

Jason K. Allen, president of Midwestern Baptist Theological…
Here are a few things we believe are worth a look. I’m a baptist who lives in land full of Lutherans.
