Debate on Gay Marriage

James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries posted a five part debate between himself and sociologist professor Michael Schutz on the topic of gay marriage. Schutz, taking the "pro" side of the debate, claims to be a Christian himself, though it is interesting to see what he appeals to as his authority.

If anything, the debate is worth watching just for James White's opening remarks on the value of marriage.

(This debate took place well before the 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision.)

Caution regarding the teaching of Lysa Terkeurst

Scripture does not require us to create such a law, and many parents simply do not have the luxury of choice due to various constraints. That said, churches should do what we can to give parents more choices.  For example, our church hosts a Classical Conversations co-op, we have a youth after-school program for public school students, and we're exploring ways to provide more educational opportunities in the future.  My family has long-chosen to homeschool, and our experience has only reinforced our concerns about public education, ...
