For one last post on the issue of Christians and Antidepressants, I’ve asked former BHT fellow Mike Benoit to share his perspective from within the discipline of psychology.
Mike Benoit is finishing a Ph.D. dissertation in Counseling Psychology and looking for an academic position somewhere. His new venture is a podcast called Giving Psychology Away found […]

I’ve been asked to give my view on the use of antidepressant medication, and I assume especially as it relates to the Christian community.
I’ve written about growing up with my dad’s severe depression, and I’ve written an entire series on “The Christian and Mental Illness.” I’m currently reading “Darkness is My Only Companion” and I […]

Baptist Elder and BHT Fellow Bill Mackinnon has written some of the most interesting and provocative essays ever to appear at InternetMonk.com. That tradition continues as Bill asks some inevitable questions raised by Southwestern Seminary President Paige Patterson’s interpretation of I Timothy 2:12. Welcome to the stage, Professor Mackinnon.
Certain portions of the internet are abuzz […]

I’ve been involved in some good discussions recently on the role of subjective, personal spiritual experiences. How should we deal with personal experiences of God “speaking” or otherwise relating to Christians on the subjective levels of feeling and sensing? Because there is such abuse and misuse in this area, it’s very easy to create a […]

One of my all time favorite Internet Monk essays is this one: “Our Problem with Grace.” If you know my admiration for the writing of Robert Capon, you’ll recognize his influence on this piece. I’m convinced that grace is one of the most difficult concepts for Christians to live with and live by. But if […]

Upon finishing N.T. Wright’s Simply Christian, I found myself comparing it to the classic C.S. Lewis book, Mere Christianity. Wright, the publishers and many readers have invited the comparisons as well.
I’ve read Mere Christianity many times with my Advanced Bible students. I’m impressed with the durability of Mere Christianity. The chapters were originally delivered […]

These Lives and Deaths Were No Tragedy
In April 2000, Ruby Eliason and Laura Edwards were killed in Cameroon, West Africa. Ruby was over eighty. Single all her life, she poured it out for one great thing: to make Jesus Christ known among the unreached, the poor, and the sick. Laura was a widow, a medical […]

One of these days I am going to write a tribute post to the wonderful reformed historian and biographer, Iain Murray. Murray has created a legacy of something we desperately need in Christianity: the lives of the “saints” that surround us on the journey. That’s a valuable and powerful gift to the church. Consider how […]

UPDATE: Phillip Yancey on How MLK positively impacted his faith. A must-read.
For the 15 years I’ve worked in a private Christian school, I’ve been exposed to thousands of public school kids who bring their understanding and expectations of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day to the school experience. I’ve learned a lot from these kids, and […]

Ground Rules is a series of posts on some of the issues raised in my interactions with my critics in the blogosphere.
Imagine with me, if you will, the following strange story.
Imagine that I make a blog post taking issue with some point made by Ravi Zacharias. I rarely disagree with Ravi, but let’s say I […]

I’m not one of those constantly offended, hand-wringing bloggers who has to run a monthly post complaining about the Christian blogosphere or tell you ten rules for the Christian blogger. That may be because, as some frequently note, I’m part of “the problem” in the Christian blogosphere. (Yawn) Well too bad. I’m happy to do […]
