The disappearance of the masculine ideal is bad news for men, and it’s terrible news for women. What will happen without men of courage and conviction?

UN CONCEPTO CLAVE PARA LA ÉTICA, APOLOGÉTICA Y TEOLOGÍA PUBLICA! Como cristianos, afirmamos que las Escrituras son nuestra guía suprema hacia toda la verdad y la justicia (Sola Scriptura). Sin embargo, algunos desean ir más allá y afirmar que es nuestra única guía. ¿Pero cómo podemos explicar la notable perspicacia e integridad moral que muchos incrédulos parecen mostrar? De hecho, ¿cómo explicar las innumerables formas en que los propios creyentes navegan por el mundo basándose en el conocimiento y la intuición no siempre derivados exclusivamente de las Escrituras? ¡...

Cuando la Biblia se la interpreta de manera sexista o siguiendo paradigmas no bíblicos, entonces, se llegan a conclusiones que ...
