When they were 16 years old, twins Alex and Brett Harris had a radical thought. What would happen if people used their teen years as a time of preparation for their adult years, instead of as a “vacation” from life? They started the blog The Rebelution – a combination of the words “rebellion”...

The new line of Dockers ads prompted different feelings across the board. WalletPop blogger Jami Bernard wrote, “[The Dockers' ad...] sounds suspiciously like the successful media campaign after World War II that sought to convince women that it was more feminine (not to mention patriotic) to give...

Manliness has become a joke in recent years. The idea that men should be manly and women should be feminine is more likely to be laughed at than anything else. If someone suggests that men should lead, take charge, or even assert themselves and protect women, then there are recriminations and accusations...

Valentine’s Day is a holiday that conjures thoughts of romance, flowers, candy, and heart-shaped ornaments. We all remember grade school exchanges of Valentine cards, the boy shyly giving a card to the girl that he fancies or our first kiss. This is what we think about, with the most sentimental and...

Everyone has heard the phrase “the heroes of the Bible.” We talk of these men as “spiritual giants,” which is another popular phrase. What do we really mean by these statements? Do we attribute to Biblical figures the greatness that we ought to be attributing to God, credit them with...

Recently, I was waiting in a doctor’s office when a man in the waiting room approached me and asked me what I was reading. I showed him the book, which was Anne of Green Gables.

It comes natural to most Christians. Pick up the cross, stop whining, get off the bleachers and into the action! Fight the good fight, evangelize, protect the widow and the orphan and defend the scriptures. In the movie, Amazing Grace, a friend of William Wilberforce goes as far as to say, “You...

Do you ever wonder how to be truly content?  More importantly, how can we, as young men, be truly content and at peace with God’s will for our lives while still being the hard-charging, decision-making leaders we are called to be?  It’s one of the most difficult challenges of our lives, guys: ...

When turbulent times arise, it is more important than ever to have a strong grasp of courageous leadership and what it means to Christians.  The American people are asking questions and they’re not looking for armchair quarterbacks, slothful clergymen or greedy politicians to answer those questions....

Modesty is a subject people tend to avoid discussing. Genesis tells us that after the fall, Adam and Eve were ashamed of their immodesty and God clothed them with animal skins.

Imagine you are about to embark on a journey. You will travel over hundreds of miles of dry wilderness, to a place you have never been. The road is notorious for bandits, and you know that you have many personal enemies who live along the route. Now, you do know a very powerful man who is able and most...

Have you ever seen a fellow Christian unwilling to accept something that is Scriptural because it doesn’t make sense to them? They might argue that you have missed some critical piece of information. It just does not make sense, they’ll say. Logic is a wonderful concept, and to me and many other...

In Romans 8: 36-37, Paul wrote: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.  No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” As a guy I have always wondered: “What more could there be in life than to be a conqueror?” Let’s...
