The Illiberalism and Irrationality of Western Liberals – As Evidenced by the Sydney Morning Herald
The Sydney Morning Herald is a frustrating and revealing newspaper….it’s frustrating because it offers so much that is good but in the end comes across as a dumbed-down progressivism for those who think they are liberal. It’s revealing because it shows how weak the intellectual and rational arguments are made by those who consider themselves to be the intellectual elites. It’s almost as though they … Continue reading The Illiberalism and Irrationality of Western Liberals – As Evidenced by the Sydney Morning Herald

Madame Butterfly – (Letter from Australia 2)
Brothers and Sisters, I started off calling these letters, Letters from Exile, but I’ve decided to change that – because it does sound as though I have been banished to a penal colony – the image that many Brits still have of Australia. We think of it as a far away place ‘down under’. It amazed me to read Augustine speaking of Australia! As early … Continue reading Madame Butterfly – (Letter from Australia 2)

The Church and Abortion in New South Wales
The Church and Abortion in New South Wales They had held out for a while. But the march of Regress is seemingly unstoppable in the Western World. All Australian States had decriminalized and ‘liberalised’ abortion, except for New South Wales. The Sydney Morning Herald was ashamed, and used the fact that NSW was different, to demand uniformity.

Persuasive Preaching
One of the key factors for growth and outreach in the church is what we call Persuasive Preaching….Some people call this apologetic preaching but I don’t think that communicates what we are talking about.
