Brief Thoughts, Inspirations, and the occasional Provocation for the people of Garden Sanctuary, and you too…
Senator Lindsey Graham’s passing at the age of 71 closes a chapter for South Carolina and for the nation. The news was only a few hours old when the political chess pieces began to move as legislative arithmetic began, calculating midterm considerations, committee seniority, and special election cycles. For believers, we must look beyond the... Continue Reading →
A paradox is offered in Leviticus 2. Here we find the Supreme Creator of the Universe, who hangs stars on nothing, carves mountain ranges, and sets the boundaries of the seas, telling His people how He wants to be approached. He doesn’t request some great feat or the completion of a quest. Jehovah doesn’t want... Continue Reading →
The clearest warnings about the deadliest ideology of the last one hundred years are not coming from pulpits, but from political podiums. This is a direct indictment of the American Church. President Donald Trump recently delivered a speech in which he denounced Marxism. The Church should respond, not by applauding his position, but by looking... Continue Reading →
MORE THAN A MARCH, A DISTURBING MOVEMENT... That the 250th Anniversary of the United States’ founding would include a variety of disturbing images is not surprising, but the nature of a group of men marching through the nation’s capital in support of creating an ethnostate is one that should not be overlooked. Ideas have consequences,... Continue Reading →
A female police officer violently beaten by a mob of teens in broad daylight is more than a blip on the weekend news radar; it is a bright, flashing warning light that we are entering civilizational freefall. Seeing youth rain down kicks, punches, and blows from weapons on a symbol of law and order is... Continue Reading →
SOMETHING IS BROKEN IN AMERICA, horribly broken… The tragic case involving Columbia, SC store owner Rick Chow ending the life of 14-year-old Cyrus Carmack-Belton has come to a conclusion: an acquittal for the store owner. While pundits, experts, and analysts contend over the merits of the case and provide their views on whether justice was... Continue Reading →
It’s April Fools’ Day… You may have already been pranked, or are planning your own epic “gotcha.” As you enjoy, or endure, the day, remember the most foolish thing a person can do is to reject the reality of God’s existence. The idea that the cosmos accidentally appeared with no creator is not merely a... Continue Reading →
NO LAW CAN OVERCOME FAILURE AT HOME... Mandating the display of the Ten Commandments is the right thing to do in any classroom in the West. The South Carolina House (among a growing number of states) legislating this display acknowledges the reality that Western Civilization is firmly grounded upon God’s law. It is my hope...

Last night, the world lurched forward down a path that seemed inevitable, that could have been prevented, but that is here nonetheless. As the U.S. and Israel launch attacks against the Iranian regime—an action necessitated by Iran’s refusal to abandon its mission to obtain nuclear weapons and its calls to destroy the U.S. and Israel—the...

Family courts in America have operated under a terribly damaging assumption for far too long. With disregard for years of research and God’s Word, they have reduced the function of fathers to being primarily, if not solely, financial. This has wreaked havoc on the children of our nation. SC has an opportunity to correct this... Continue Reading →
I have been asked for my thoughts on the TPUSA halftime show. I did not watch either halftime show—or the Super Bowl, for that matter—and cannot remember the last time I saw one. I spent last night fellowshipping with a group of pastors. That said, by all accounts, I am glad I didn't watch. I... Continue Reading →

To call it a death would be melodramatic, but something certainly “ceased to be” this week. It started as a trickle, an article here or there, then a deluge of Christian media outlets began carrying the story that Chip and Joanna Gaines, long hailed as standard bearers of Christian success in business and entertainment, had...

I was recently asked the following question..."I’m a lifetime NRA member, have my CC, and support self-defence, but I’m curious about the theological basis for stating that lethal self-defence is “the God-given” right?" MY REPLY... That is a great question, and one that I am glad you asked. First, I would submit that governments do... Continue Reading →

As the book of Acts begins, the fledgling church finds itself asking the wrong question, foregoing a spiritual promise for a chance at temporal understanding. Jesus points them to outpouring of Pentecost. They want to know if this is when the Kingdom of Israel will be established. The Savior, by now quite accustomed to dealing... Continue Reading →
In recent years, election seasons have increasingly lengthened, to the point that it seems we are never in a time that is not "campaign season." With 100,000 unique governments making up the United States, and those governments being filled by over 500,000 elected officials, it is no surprise that someone, somewhere, is campaigning at any...
