The Exclusivity of Christ in a Pluralistic Culture
It has been fashionable for some time now to affirm that all religions are beautiful and true, each in its own way. People are prone to say something like “I believe what I believe, and that’s good for me. You believe what you believe, and that’s good for you.” This notion even has increasingly crept into the church, where Christians, for fear of being thought bigoted or unkind, are reluctant to say that Jesus Christ is the one and only way to true life.

How Does the Bible Talk about Sin?
Sin is a word and concept that many Christians have grown so familiar with that they risk forgetting all that it means. Like a word we’ve turned over in our minds so many times that it has begun to seem unreal, the idea of sin can seem totally disconnected from our experience. We need sometimes to be reminded of what sin is and of its real, destructive power.
In Preparation for Easter, Read “With a Mighty Triumph”
Have you ever wondered what our lives would be like if Jesus had stayed in the grave? The apostle Paul considered this notion, and his thoughts on the subject are explored in the book With a Mighty Triumph: Christ’s Resurrection and Ours. Resurrection is a key doctrine of the Christian faith, and this book discusses two wonders of Christianity: that Christ was raised from the dead and that the same Spirit who raised Christ will one day raise all who trust in Him as well.
How Church Leaders Can Delegate Wisely
Whether in education, medicine, the trades, or a host of other fields, professional development usually includes a period of apprenticeship. It is not surprising when a teacher in a classroom delegates instructional responsibilities to a student teacher or when a physician asks a medical resident to take the lead in an examination. We understand that this is a necessary part of how people learn the skills of the field they are entering.

A Biblical Picture of Unbridled Worship
Shortly before Jesus’ trial and crucifixion, the Gospel writers tell us of an encounter that is at once strikingly intimate and profoundly strange. As John records it, Mary the sister of Lazarus—the man Jesus had raised from the dead not long before—came to Jesus while He was eating with Lazarus and other guests, “took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair” (John 12:3).
What Are the Signs of a Healthy Spiritual Appetite?
On one occasion, Jesus told the story of a lost child (Luke 15:11–32). Many of us are familiar with this parable, in which the Prodigal Son left his father’s home and squandered his inheritance through reckless living—and then, upon the son’s sorrowful return, his father met him with tremendous compassion and rejoicing.
