GUEST: SCOTT ANIOL, Executive VP and Editor-in-Chief G3 Ministries

There is no more important issue and pursuit than worshipping God. It’s more important than who will be our next president, more important than world peace, more important than your health, financial security, and whatever else we treasure.

Scripture makes the primacy of worship clear:  King David prayed, “Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power […]

Jesus declared to Peter: “I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it” (Matthew 16:18).

That’s a guarantee from the Son of God. In fact, the church is the only institution that Christ promises to build. Not nation-states, not political parties, not para-church Christian ministries—just the church.

The word “church” can be defined a few ways:

  • The building you drive by down the street where people gather to worship
  • […]

GUEST: Dr. GEORGE BARNA, Cultural Research Center, AZ Christian University

A true follower of Christ has the indwelling Holy Spirit to discern that the professed Bible-believing church in America has drifted. The lights go down and the “worship arts team” spends 30 minutes or more performing the audience into an emotional, quasi-spiritual experience. Then the pastor takes the “stage” and roams, gesticulates, and emotes his (or her) way through a 25-minute “sermon” […]

GUEST: GREG, pastor, Kyiv, Ukraine

It’s been over a month and Ukraine continues to fight back against the military invasion by Vladimir Putin’s Russian forces. The human toll is high—thousands of people have been killed (on both sides), with homes and other non-military buildings destroyed. Cities like Mariupol have been decimated by Russian military bombardment, causing millions of refugees.

Meanwhile, the debate rages in Europe and America about what to do. Is more intervention […]

GUEST: PASTOR JAMES COATES, co-author, God vs. Government

Persecution, imprisonment, and murder of Christians is nothing new. The gospels recount the crucifixion of Christ and the book of Acts chronicles the threats, beatings, jailings, and stonings of first century Christians.

Today is no different for believers in Communist China or North Korea, where Christians defy government edicts and gather secretly. In some Islamic countries, Christians are jailed and martyred for refusing to […]

GUEST: MAT STAVER, Founder of Liberty Counsel

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near. Hebrews 10:23-25

TCW Minute: Worldview Change in the Country and Church (Week of May 20, 2019)

What has changed the country and the church?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Over the last many decades, our country has cast off biblical foundations in favor of humanistic values.  And the evangelical church, instead of obeying the call to be separate from the world, has become more like it.

Satan and our sin nature are always at work, but where that work has been most effective is through higher education, whether […]

TCW Minute: Lessons from the Revelation Churches (Week of Nov. 19, 2018)

Lessons from the Revelation churches.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

In Revelation two and three, Jesus gives commendations and warnings to seven historic churches in what is now modern-day Turkey.

No church is praised for its growth, programs, music, societal impact, social justice, or relevance to non-believers.

Instead, what Christ commends is faithfulness to God’s word, intolerance of false teaching, perseverance in suffering, and holiness, while warning against sexual immorality, worldliness, and loss […]

What is Jesus’ message to His church today?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

In the opening chapters of Revelation, Jesus gives messages to seven historic churches in Asia Minor.

Two of the seven received commendations for their faithfulness while five were warned to repent of their errant ways or face the consequences.

The church today would do well to heed Christ’s commands to these churches: to cling to sound doctrine, to be full […]
