    Passing down religious faith to our children

    Reminiscing about my grandparents this evening, I recall that my decision to leave the Church I was raised in sparked a serous conversation about Proverbs 22:6 - “Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart from it.” My grandparents couldn’t understand how...

    Passing down religious faith to our children

    That’s close to my own story. My parents couldn’t have cared less about religious instruction. They allowed me to go to Church with my paternal grandparents. My early religious training came from them and the Church which I attended with them. The only time it became a problem for my parents was...

    I just came across the obituary for Carl Davis. (He died from a brain hemorrhage a couple of weeks ago.) It brought to mind his magnificent work in The World At War.

    Passing down religious faith to our children

    Children tend to be like their parents, and the pattern tends to continue for multiple generations. I’ve encountered this often in my work with neglected and abused children. ”’What?,’ you ask, ‘Doesn’t the child pay for the parent’s sins?’ No! For if the child does what is right and keeps my...

    A God of Hate

    The first question: Do you hold that this message from the Sovereign LORD to Ezekiel is suspect? The second question: What do you find suspect about God’s message to Ezekiel? The “excessive length” of the post is God’s message to Ezekiel, which you chastised me for not bringing back. I then...
