Christianity In America

Recently WORLD magazine (www.wng.org), published an interview with Dr. Carl Truman, professor at Grove City College in PA.  He has written a book entitled, "The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self."   Although I haven't read this book yet I've heard from a handful of people that it is excellent and hits the bull's eye in describing the problems of our contemporary culture.  I highly recommend the interview and then the book.  

Also, Dr. Steve Nichols, president of The Reformation Bible College, and Teaching Fellow at Ligonier Ministries, has produced a new twelve-part teaching series entitled, Christianity in America, which is excellent. This also describes where we are and how we got here.  You can see this on the Ligonier App, where it is promoted as “Conviction or Compromise.”  It’s also available through www.ligonier.org, or Ligonier Connect, (https://connect.ligonier.org) where there are over a hundred other teaching series from Ligonier.  

Let’s encourage each other with a Veritas Fellowship as we see our culture disintegrating right before our eyes.  We need the Truth of Scripture, who is Christ, and our children need this same Truth for the years and generations to come.  A people centered, relationally oriented, emotionally focused faith cannot stand against the self-centeredness of contemporary culture.  It cannot strengthen us Spiritually.  We need the Truth of Scripture, with graciousness and mercy to everyone.  But, we need the Truth of Scripture.
