A lot of Christians are riled up about the lyrics on the new Taylor Swift album. I’ve read the lyrics, and they’re certainly disturbing. This album isn’t Christian friendly. In fact, it’s anti-Christian. So yes, let’s talk about the Taylor Swift issue, but let’s not stop there. I always[...]
A recent headline from The Christian Post reads, “A move of God: Thousands of students attending revival events, hundreds baptized.” The story that follows details recent events at Auburn University and the University of Georgia. This is the kind of news I enjoy reading. Yet, I also hesitate to declare[...]
