It was a long time second-coming. After years of searching, Italian archaeologists have discovered an ancient site that matches a Bible description of where Jesus Christ was buried, per a preliminary study in the Jerusalem archaeological journal Liber Annuus. “We have found evidence of a funerary landscape,” lead archaeologist Francesca Romana Stasolla, of the “La Sapienza” University of Rome, told the Daily Mail as part of an exclusive article. The researchers had been excavating Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a fourth century Roman Church that was built over a holy site where many Christians believe Christ was crucified, buried...

The Coca-Cola Company has a new promotion available online for its popular soft drink where customers can customize messages featured on a can or bottle. If you thought the marketing executives behind this idea would allow expressions of faith or politics to be featured, you would be wrong. But what they will allow are phrases so absolutely vile that whoever orders them should be on a watchlist. Upon visiting the website and selecting a Coke product to personalize, users will be met with a text box. If a banned word or phrase is used, the following message will appear: “The...

There have always been those who respond to war throughout the church differently. - Pacifists- Those who believe in Just War Theory - Others who believe in the “Blank Check” model—without questioning War is complicated, ugly, and addictive. It reveals our sinfulness in a way that few controversies can. God was bold enough to send his son to die in order to save us, not by storming the Temple with swords and shields, not by overthrowing the Roman Empire, but with a slow and non-violent march to the top of a hill with a cross on his back.

Today, Melania and I join in prayer with Catholic Bishops gathered in Orlando, Florida, as they consecrate the United States of America to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the occasion of our 250th year of American Independence—a powerful moment in our national story and a poignant reminder that America has always been guided by the loving hand of God.Even in the centuries before the United States was conceived in nationhood, America was a land of prayer, a place of miracles, and home to some of the most faithful and devoted Christians to ever live. From the heroic bands of...

Last Sunday, I met an Arab Christian who was visiting our church. In a respectful way, he poured out his heart concerning the plight of his people in the Middle East and his sadness at how few American Christian pastors ever say anything positive or hopeful about Arab Christians... So I thought it would be good to publicly affirm a few positions that I think the Bible mandates:- True Christians are citizens of the kingdom of Jesus Christ first, and only secondarily citizens of any earthly nation or state. - American Christians are more closely united to Palestinian Christians and...

The Thief on the Cross - Billy Graham

It's a powerful claim found in Scripture: “God shows no favoritism.” ...This phrase appears throughout the Bible, but one of the clearest moments is in Acts 10, when Peter says, “I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right” (Acts 10:34-35). This is a turning point—not just for Peter, but for the early Church. A Jewish man raised within strict boundaries of culture and religion suddenly recognizes that the Gospel is for all people, not just some... It’s important to understand...

In the Bible-belt town where I grew up, the virgin Mary had her annual fifteen minutes of fame when December rolled around. You had your shepherds, your angels, and your young maiden kneeling beside the swaddled babe. But after the presents were unwrapped and the nativity brouhaha had quieted down, Mary drifted back into the shadows. Why the Catholics made such a big deal about her never made sense to my Baptist mind. Yes, of course, she had a heart-warming part to play in the Jesus story, but to me, she was merely a minor character. My appreciation for Mary’s...
