Timber Framing, Poetic Knowledge, and the Curse of SinWe stood at the ridge marking our property line, admiring our neighbor’s mature forest of mixed hardwoods and looking back with not a little distaste at the tangle of vines, thorns, and immature saplings on our side of the line — the mess from which we had just emerged. I counted fourteen holes in my shirt and more in my skin. We generally avoid this grim section of our otherwise beautiful farm but went that day to survey the forest and … [Read more...]

Evangelicalism is not ready for the culture’s rightward shiftGuest article by Andrew T. Walker[Editor's note: Theologian Andrew Walker clearly and wisely identifies one of the greatest weaknesses of American evangelicalism, its failure to preach and teach "the whole counsel of God" (Acts 20:27)---or as I like to unpack that a bit, "the whole counsel of God from the whole Word of God to the whole people of God for the whole of life." Here's the introduction to Walker's March 25, 2025, article for … [Read more...]
Paris Climate Treaty Is Going Down
With history as a guide and two months to prepare for the announcement, there was relatively little wailing and gnashing of teeth when President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement (for the second time; the lamentations were much greater in 2017) on his first day back in office. Despite efforts by politicos and influentials within the United States and internationally to encourage Trump to stay in the Paris agreement, the writing was on the wall.Trump has … [Read more...]
Public Abandons Doomsday Cult for Climate Realism and Practical Environmentalism
For years, climate activists like Al Gore and John Kerry have made bold, headline-grabbing predictions that have failed to materialize. Gore’s 2007 assertion that the Arctic would be ice-free by 2013 stands in stark contrast to reality: Arctic ice has not disappeared despite seasonal fluctuations, and Antarctica sea ice has rebounded from record low levels.Similarly, Kerry’s repeated warnings of impending catastrophe have lacked grounding in observable data. Teenage activist Greta Thunberg’s … [Read more...]
Trump’s Paris Pullout Liberates Third World, Saves U.S. Billions
Donald Trump's withdrawal of the United States from the Paris Agreement is both a geopolitical shift likely to have positive effects abroad and a monetary relief for American taxpayers.The pecuniary implications of Trump’s withdrawal are substantial: The United States has shouldered an outsized share of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change secretariat’s budget, contributing approximately 22% of its funding. For the 2024-2025 cycle alone, the secretariat’s operating costs are … [Read more...]
The Most Bizarre Experience of My Life
The first week of February, I had the most bizarre experience of my life. I don’t know how it will play out, but I thank God I came home alive. Here’s what happened, with a bit of context.In early December, I got an email from someone claiming to work for a video production company working on a documentary on climate change and energy policy. The producers said they appreciated Cornwall Alliance’s perspective and wanted to include it in the “round-table discussion.”After two months of emails and … [Read more...]
Using the Climate Change Scare to Promote Abortion
A couple of weeks ago, I was invited to speak to Campaign Life Coalition Ottawa about climate change and the potential threat that climate alarmism poses to the objectives of pro-lifers. The title of the event is “Why global warming alarmism is a threat to unborn children… and the pro-life movement.”In preparation for the event, I researched whether climate activist groups had anything to say about abortion and were surprised to see they do indeed. While their position is usually cloaked in … [Read more...]
Equality vs Equity: Q&A
I am seeking literature that describes the notion of equality and distinguishes it from equity. I am seeing so much “redefinition” of these terms lately and I wish to engage in civil discourse on these topics. I want to be able to discuss these concepts with people knowing that I have the strength of knowledge behind anything that I might say.In addition, if there are any biblical references that clarify either of these concepts, this would be an extremely valuable addition.Can you help me by … [Read more...]
Dangers of the Next Generation Science Standards
Over the past decade and more, a serious threat has arisen to the education of America’s children. For generations America’s public schools have indoctrinated our children with the dogma of Darwinism: life arose and developed by chance, no Creator involved. Now they’re indoctrinating them with another dogma: catastrophic anthropogenic global warming (CAGW)—and with it a whole catalog of other exaggerated and sometimes completely fictitious environmental concerns, all of them used as rationales … [Read more...]
Why the Sudden Attack on Gas Stoves?
No doubt you have heard the discussion that gas stoves are evil … because they lead to childhood asthma. I am not talking about “gasoline” stoves—and I do not recommend you cook with gasoline—but gas stoves that run on natural gas. You might have one of these “anti-children” appliances in your kitchen. I recently moved from a home that had a gas stove to one where I now cook with electricity … not because I have children who are likely to develop asthma but because … well, the new house does not … [Read more...]
