Your support of our work is inspiring and invaluable. A young man was standing in the wings, preparing to enter the sanctuary to marry his wife. His best man, and Father, placed his hand gently on his shoulder. “Son, before we open that door, I want to share some advice.” “Never forget your friends”, he said, “they will become more important as you get older.” Culturally, we are struggling to understand what modern friendships look like. We’ve replaced long-term, “mono e mono” friendships with the digital efficiency of social media. It’s digital, but not deep, and these superficial, digital relationships are part of what’s making us increasingly lonely.

On the Left: Are white evangelicals really Christians? Part 2 Jack Batson: On the Left Let’s continue my understanding of white, conservative evangelical Christianity – well described by the book, “Jesus and John Wayne,” by Kristin DuMez. Evangelicalism by the 1980s had become overtly political with Jerry Falwell and his Moral Majority, declaring, “Get saved, get baptized, get registered.” Falwell encouraged a fighting faith, saying we are “fighting a holy war” and that the church was an “army equipped for battle.” “Jesus was a man with muscles; Christ was a he-man,” he avowed. Evangelical men by the 1990s were reacting badly to the woman’s movement and working spouses. A rash of books emerged to rectify what was seen as unbiblical trends. One group introduced the idea of “complementarianism,” that God made men for headship and wives should be submissive. The Southern Baptist Convention adopted that position. A whole cultural men’s movement began.
