David VanDrunen’s radical two kingdoms theology leaves the church unable to speak clearly to issues like education, worship, and even abortion.

David VanDrunen’s two-kingdoms framework wrongly separates justice from the redemptive kingdom.

David VanDrunen’s radical two kingdoms theology contains some compelling insights—but its treatment of creation and redemption raises troubling questions.

A growing number of Baptists are leaving for higher church traditions—and the reasons may be closer to home than we think.

A year-end reflection on the best and most disappointing books read in 2025.

These five sermons from Christ Bible Church stood out in 2025 for their biblical depth, pastoral clarity, and insistence that Christ actually changes everything.

Christmas is not sentimental escape but God’s invasion of a dark world, where the incarnation marks the decisive war between light and darkness and declares the certain victory of Christ.

While Baptists often hesitate to call anything beyond regenerated individuals “Christian,” Scripture shows that we can rightly use the term in four ways—conversion, correspondence, content, and consummation—since Christ is redeeming and transforming all things in the cosmos by the blood of his cross.

God’s covenants—not biology or “natural affections”—redefine how we should love family, church, and nation, showing the true order of our obligations.

The Bible expands, rather than replaces, our obligations—calling us to love both our families and the family of God.

Our cultural chaos—on race, nation, and natural affections—stems from a false nature/grace divide, and we won’t find clarity until we recover the biblical storyline of creation, fall, and redemption.

The modern gospel of self-love promises freedom but delivers despair. True joy and meaning aren’t found in loving yourself but in loving God and neighbor through the self-giving love of Christ.

To be a Christian friend, you must first be a friend of Jesus.

To reject classical liberalism is to overlook its Protestant roots and risk replacing biblical principles with flawed alternatives.

Ideas have consequences. Some in the Reformed camp are now defending partiality—something they once opposed in CRT. What was once recognized as sinful is now being justified, mirroring the arguments of the regressive left.

Christianity today has become a soul-searching, navel-gazing mess, paralyzed by introspection and a misguided obsession with idol-hunting, when what’s needed is simple: to look to Jesus and obey.

An eye for an eye isn’t personal vengeance—it’s God’s blueprint for justice.

Micah 6:8 is one of the most commonly misunderstood Bible passages today, primarily because we often confuse mercy with justice. A closer examination reveals that this verse is not about social justice but rather about repentance and covenant faithfulness.

Bible verses are often taken out of context to support personal agendas. Psalm 46:10 is a clear example. While it’s commonly understood as a call for personal peace, it’s actually God commanding the nations to stop their rebellion and acknowledge his authority.

Cultural warring as Christians is not optional. Christ is King, and the church brings with her a distinct culture wherever she goes and will remain involved in a culture war until Christ returns.
