“Contradicting a Culture of Selfishness”The Gospel Coalition
“In this new video, Paul Tripp encourages parents to disciple their children to love the things of God in the midst of a culture of selfishness.”

“Massive Genetic Study Reveals 90 Percent of Earth’s Animals Appeared at the Same Time”Tech Times
“Landmark new research that involves analyzing millions of DNA barcodes has debunked much about what we know today about the evolution of species.”

“More on Alien Octopi: New Paper Admits Failure of Evolution to Explain Life”Evolution News
“There are many fundamental problems with evolutionary theory. Origin-of-life studies have dramatically failed. Incredibly complex biological designs, both morphological and molecular, arose abruptly with far too little time to have evolved. The concept of punctuated equilibrium is descriptive, not explanatory. The Cambrian explosion is not explained by evolution and, in general, evolutionary mechanisms are inadequate to explain the emergence of new traits, body plans, and new physiologies. Even a single gene is beyond the reach of evolutionary mechanisms.”

“8 Signs You’re Following the Way of the Dragon Rather Than the Way of the Lamb” J.D. Greear Ministries
“The more prominent Christian leaders fall, the more Goggin and Strobel’s warning seems incredibly timely. So I tried to distill their advice into “8 warning signs” that well-intentioned ministers may be leaving the way of the lamb and following the way of the dragon…”

“Evidence for the Bible”Always Be Ready Apologetics
“The Bible is truly a remarkable book…It addresses life’s most controversial questions (Does God exist? And if so, what is He like? Why do people exist? What happens to people after they die? Why is there evil and suffering in the world? etc). And it has given billions of followers of Jesus the confidence that their sins have been forgiven, their relationship with God has been restored, and that they will live forever in the presence of their Creator. But…

• Why should anyone take the Bible seriously?
• Haven’t the contents of the Bible been tampered with down through the centuries?
• Aren’t there scientific errors in the Bible?…These are excellent questions! And there are good answers to them.”

“Jewish scientist (James Tour) makes the greatest Jewish discovery!!”OneforIsrael.org
“Jewish scientist Dr. James Tour is one of the top 50 most influential minds in the world who took part in a Nobel Prize. You won’t believe his discovery!!!”

“Anthony Hopkins: ‘Most of this is nonsense, most of this is a lie’”The Guardian
“For anyone who looks toward their later years with trepidation, Sir Anthony Hopkins (“Tony, please”) is a proper tonic. He is 79, and happier than he has ever been. This is due to a mixture of things: his relationship with his wife of 15 years, Stella, who has encouraged him to keep fit, and to branch out into painting and classical composition; the calming of his inner fire, of which more later; and his work.”

“An Intentional Intimacy”Christianity Today
“Future historians will find more than enough material from Billy Graham’s life and work to keep them occupied. But one of the main questions they will want to answer is: What was the secret of his success?”

“The Christian and the Law”Back to Basics
“The Christian life, as we have seen, is revolutionary. It calls us to a holy standard of living that is totally distinct from the world. But even as He preached the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus knew that none of us could live out His teaching without help. Before He went further, Jesus needed to explain a few things.”
