“Social justice.” Who in America today isn’t aware of how controversial that term is? It’s at the center of a movement that is turning this country upside down. Call it the “Woke” movement, or “Woke Progressivism,” or “Cultural Marxism” with its “Critical Race Theory,” “Critical Gender Theory,” or just plain old “Critical Theory”—by whatever name, it’s tearing apart families, churches, and the nation as people line up on opposite sides of a very basic question: What does it mean to do … [Read more...]
St. Patrick’s Prayer: I bind unto myself today
I bind unto myself today the strong Name of the Trinity, by invocation of the same, the Three in One, and One in Three. I bind this day to me for ever, by power of faith, Christ's Incarnation; his baptism in Jordan river; his death on cross for my salvation; his bursting from the spicèd tomb; his riding up the heavenly way; his coming at the day of doom: I bind unto myself today. I bind unto myself the power of the great love of cherubim; the sweet "Well done" in judgment hour; the service of … [Read more...]
Are Christians Automatically Biased Where Science is Concerned?
Here at the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation we try to answer email questions in detail as often as we can. That's not to say we have the time to answer every single question that way, but we do try. This week Dr. Beisner received the following question from a staff member of a college apologetics ministry. (We do not include the names of those who ask questions when we share the information with our readers.) What are your thoughts on the critical claim that organizations … [Read more...]
A Prayer for the Unsaved Souls of Asia and Africa
Our Father in Heaven, We praise you for making the sun and rain fall on more than 4 billions lives in Asia and Africa.

We pray that your Holy Spirit will move in this vast landscape and stir the hearts of men and women to reach out to the unsaved. May your divine grace bring them the knowledge of saving grace, and make them … [Read more...]
You Shall Not Make for Yourself a Carved Image
The Cornwall Alliance has produced a series of 23 lectures on the Ten Commandments. How do those relate to our usual focus on environment and development? Lots of ways. This is the second in a series of brief posts exploring some of them. “You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous … [Read more...]
You Shall Have No Other Gods Before Me
The Cornwall Alliance has produced a series of 23 lectures on the Ten Commandments. How do those relate to our usual focus on environment and development? Lots of ways. This is the first in a series of brief posts exploring some of them. “You shall have no other gods before Me.”—The First Commandment “The heavens declare the glory of God,” says Psalm 19:1, and He will not share His glory with any other (Isaiah 42:8). This is important to both environmental stewardship and economic … [Read more...]
Climate Change and the Christian Faith
Professor Katharine Hayhoe spoke on "Climate and Faith in the Public Arena" in her John Stott London Lecture November 16. Like Dr. Hayhoe, I'm a climate scientist; like her, I'm a Christian; like her, I care about my neighbors and want to protect them from harm; and like her, and I'm committed to stewardship of God's wonderful creation. Nonetheless, for these very reasons I cannot help questioning some of what she has said about climate change. In announcing the lecture, A Rocha … [Read more...]
Environmentalist Lobby Goes After Another Trump Nominee For Being A Christian
Remember when Bernie Sanders passionately attacked budget office nominee Russell Vought because Vought believes salvation comes only by faith in Jesus Christ—something Christianity has taught for two millennia? It looks like it’s open season for anti-Christian bigots to hunt down and destroy any Christian nominated to public office—especially if that Christian doesn’t toe the line of environmental political correctness. Forget Article 6 of the Constitution insisting “no religious Test shall … [Read more...]

Make Us Good Stewards We Pray
One of the classic psalms about God’s creation is Psalm 104, a model for how those who love that creation and want to be its good stewards should pray: Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great! You are clothed with splendor and majesty, covering yourself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent. He lays the beams of his chambers on the waters; he makes the clouds his chariot; he rides on the wings of the wind; he makes his messengers … [Read more...]
