"The term evangelical is often poorly defined and frequently comes with cultural and political baggage. As the label has become more controversial, many Christians have begun to wonder if they should abandon it altogether.

In the last few decades sixty-five million Americans who once regular attended a local congregation, no longer do. About thirty-five million of those no longer self-identify as Christian, but over thirty-one million still do. This last group has been tagged "The Dones", those who still seek to follow Jesus and find real community but have given up hope that the local congregation is still relevant to their journey. What do we make of this phenomenon?...

Protestants say they have authority, based on their unmediated direct access to the Bible. What you're about to read is an informal dialogue I had with Dr. Peter Kreeft on the historic healing happening within Christianity. I think you'll greatly enjoy this short, but powerful transcript,...

It is a matter of knowing what "experience" of God can reach a human being, whether he or she seeks God without knowing it or naming God, or that he or she affirms, as a Christian believer, God's historical manifestation in Jesus Christ.

In “The Postindustrial Promise”, author Anthony Healy finds that the changes in religious life and among congregations are being misunderstood.

Teniendo como trasfondo el aporte de Carl Jung sobre los complejos sombríos, nos acerca a la sombra de una Iglesia que se mira a sí misma, cual Narciso contemplando su belleza, mientras camina desnuda por el grito de quienes han callado por décadas el sufrimiento vivido a su amparo. Las víctimas de ayer, sobrevivientes hoy, encontrarán en estas páginas lo que sostenía y sostiene a quien abusó de ellas.
Sin ese soporte ideológico, sin la complicidad...
