Resurrection and the Calendar of Life
We have just celebrated Easter in our Western calendar. Calendars are important across the world because they punctuate time, its meaning and significance, and Easter is one of those times of celebration and remembrance. But what exactly does it all signify?
We Have Seen His Glory
This Christmas season, Joe Boot reflects on the staggering reality of God’s glory revealed to His people as he takes up residence, or tabernacles, among us. This fact ought to be a great source of strength for Christians, greater than any hardship we could ever experience.

Christian Witness in a Hostile Culture
A proper Christology militates against statism or salvation by politics, because God's reign is not mediated by human powers and institutions, but by Christ alone.
