April 2, 2020 | Freddy Davis

Last year, a very famous pastor and author walked away from his church, divorced his wife, and declared, “I am not a Christian.” Joshua Harris was pastor of a megachurch for about 11 years before leaving that work. He was also the author of what became a very popular book…

March 26, 2020 | Freddy Davis

Patrick Hukins is a vegan. There’s certainly nothing wrong with that if it is the diet he prefers. Jesus made it pretty clear in Matthew 15:18 that, “it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth.” In other words, it…

Conversation about Beliefs

February 25, 2020 | Freddy Davis

A while back, a Facebook friend posted a meme that showed up in my Facebook feed. It was a political yard sign that said, “God bows down to President Donald J. Trump: Declares he is perfect.” At first I just looked past it, but very quickly people started jumping in…
