Book Review: Fault Lines by Voddie Baucham

Christianity and Critical Social Justice: These two things cannot co-exist.  This is the primary message of Voddie Baucham’s latest book Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism’s Looming Catastrophe. Just as the San Andreas Fault creates a stark dividing line between two moving tectonic plates, so a dividing line is splitting down the middle […]

Social Justice Is a Secular Religion

I have been hammering on this theme for a while now, and there is good reason for that.
