Death Is No Stranger
from R.C. Sproul Nov 18, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul

Linking Faith and Loyalty
from R.C. Sproul Nov 14, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Loyalty is a virtue that is linked to the biblical concept of faith. We tend to restrict or limit our understanding of faith to an act of believing, a kind of intellectual assent to the truth of a proposition. We know, however, that saving faith includes more than assent; it includes personal trust. Keep Reading -

War and Peace with a Holy God
from Tim Challies Nov 11, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Today is Veteran's Day in the United States (and Remembrance Day in Canada and the United Kingdom). These occasions fall on the 92nd anniversary of the cessation of hostiliies at the close of World War One. As I thought about this date and all it represents, I was reminded of a section from R.C.

Embracing Our Mission
from R.C. Sproul Nov 07, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul

The Journey to Mount Moriah
from R.C. Sproul Nov 01, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
I find it difficult, if not impossible, to get inside the head of Abraham on his journey to Mount Moriah. I have never had the experience of being called to slay my son for the glory of God. The closest thing to it in my own experience pales into insignificance by comparison. It occurred not with my son, but with my dog. Keep Reading -

Understanding Our Pilgrimage
from R.C. Sproul Oct 24, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
Resting within the shadow of the Statue of Liberty, the small piece of real estate known as Ellis Island has become a symbol of American history. There, immigrants assembled on arrival to this nation. They came from many places for many different reasons. They all looked to Lady Liberty for hope—this despite her somewhat hypocritical smile, inasmuch as she was erected two years after Congress passed a law limiting immigration. Keep Reading -
