Already Provided
God set His humans in the Garden to manage things for Him and His glory. They were imbued with a native understanding of what He required of them. No one had to tell them where the boundaries of moral action … Continue reading

Radically Different
Kiln of the Soul parish is neither liberal nor conservative in our political outlook. Those terms refer to persuasions based on secular materialism. They are to varying degrees hostile to genuine Christian faith. The Covenant of Christ does not lead … Continue reading
Turn Freshly to the Lord
Let’s look at the trends. I won’t predict the eventual fallout, only what seems to be the strong thrust of human sentiment at large right now. First, I must reiterate that Trump has no agenda aside from his own self-aggrandizement. … Continue reading
