A Pastor and His Newspaper

Pro-Palestinian Protesters and the Consequence of Speech

I am here with the second part of my outlook on the war in Gaza. I share what I believe needs to happen in Gaza for peace. I also look at the pro-Palestinian rallies on college campuses. Students and schools are experiencing what it feels to be "canceled."

Israel’s Agony

I am looking at the conflict in Israel and Gaza. What will happen next is on many of our minds. Blame can be directed at several entities. We look at the October 7th terrorist attack in Israel by Hamas and the aftermath from different angles. 

Andy Stanley, Pope Francis and Biblical Christianity

I am back with a new episode on the back-and-forth between Andy Stanley and Dr. Al Mohler of Southern Seminary on the topic of Biblical Christianity. Also on a similar note, the Catholic Church is gathering for a three-week synod on issues related to LGBTQ issues. So in today's episode, I am discussing the conflicts in Christendom on the topic of Biblical Christianity on the issues of sexual ethics.  

Death at the Border

I am back with a new episode of A Pastor and His Newspaper. We are discussing the huge death toll at the border as migrates are dying of heat exhaustion or drowning in the Rio Grande River. How should Christians advocate for life among illegal migrants? 

Why America is Exceptional?

I am back with a new episode on the exceptionalism of America. A new article in World Magazine looks at 4 Pillars of American Exceptionalism. I also have a new podcast launching in August on college football with my friend, Derek McFarland. Look forward to new takes by me. 

My Trip to Guatemala

I am back with an update from my trip to Guatemala. We look at the results of Guatemala's recent election, and the increased investment by the Chinese in Latin America. All of this and more on a new episode of "A Pastor and His Newspaper." 

Tim Keller and Forgiveness

In memory of Tim Keller, I am looking at his last book, Forgive. This book was a great read on the topic of forgiveness. You can buy this book at Central's Bookstore. 

The Coronation of King Charles III: Is this the end of the British Commonwealth?

I am back and better than ever. I am talking about King Charles III's coronation. A man, who is now called the "Defender of the Faith," is a poor example of moral character after an ongoing sexual affair and divorce. He may be the catalyst for the downfall of the commonwealth. 

Transgenderism and Gender Dysphoria in America

I am back with a new episode. I am looking at gender dysphoria in America. Too often political positions in America have taken priority over scientific research in the area of gender dysphoria. 

The Past Few Weeks in Tennessee

I am looking at the events that have happened in Nashville, TN in the past few weeks. First, the school shooting at Covenant Presbyterian School is a sad story with several layers. Second, the expulsion of two black congressmen in the state is an unfortunate story of unprofessionalism in our society today.
