Three Great Reasons for Christians to Save and Invest Their Money

Posted on June 26, 2018 in Money, Theology by

It’s no secret that most Americans have little to no savings. I’ve written previously on the inability of many Americans to cover even a small $400 emergency. This reality shows that many people do not prioritize saving. If you asked the average person to stop getting coffee at Starbucks daily, end their Netflix subscription, or take their lunch to work with them, you will be met with looks of disgust and shock. Clearly something isn’t right.

Google Faced with Decision to Engage in Censorship – or Not

To put it more bluntly, pregnancy resource centers are better, higher quality businesses offering their clients an excellent client experience. On the demand side of economics, demand is growing for the services provided by pregnancy resource centers, while demand for abortion clinics is declining. Planned Parenthood and their affiliates can either change their business model to match demand, or suffer the natural consequences of a shrinking client base.

IVF is the Essence of an Inconsistent, Double Standard Definition of Life

Posted on June 19, 2018 in Life, Public Policy by

This is where the worldview of many people is often inconsistent. People want to use IVF and have no concern for the loss of life due to this method of making babies. But when the loss is something they did not intend, suddenly it becomes litigious. Would a judge in this case be so clear in his worldview as to declare the couple has no standing to bring the suit because they took part in the intentional killing of human embryos and are, therefore, as guilty as the clinic?

The Battle’s Not Over: Here’s What the Cake Baking Ruling Didn’t Do

Posted on June 14, 2018 in Public Policy, Religious Freedom by

I’m certainly not trying to be a killjoy in the wake of a decision that brings good news for religious freedom and free speech. But I do want to be realistic and understand the ruling in its context and scope. To do that we need to understand what the ruling did not do.

Paige Patterson, Albert Mohler, and a Brief Theology of Complimentarianism

Posted on June 12, 2018 in Marriage, Theology by

Mohler is wondering if this belief gave shelter to abusive men, and allowed them to justify their abuse by using Scripture to demand that women “submit to their own husbands.” Mohler is asking this question in anticipation of the response by opponents of complimentarianism that will see the controversy around Patterson as proof of their claims that complimentarians are secret abusers.

BOOM: President Trump Defunds Planned Parenthood! Here’s My Big Concern.

Posted on June 6, 2018 in Life, Money, Public Policy by

A Vice President for Planned Parenthood commented:“Under this rule, people will not get the health care they need. They won’t get birth control, cancer screenings, STD testing and treatment, or even general women’s health exams.” This just shows the desperation of Planned Parenthood as they completely ignore the facts. For example, the following was reported concerning this proposal:

Supreme Court Ruling was Good – But Not Good Enough

Posted on June 5, 2018 in Marriage, Public Policy, Religious Freedom by

While I appreciate the ruling and am thankful that the court recognized the unfair treatment of Jack Phillips, I want more. I want the court to recognize the principles of human productivity and the right of every business owner to discriminate.

The Women’s March is Really Upset About the End of a Sex-Trafficking Website

Posted on May 31, 2018 in Public Policy, Sexuality by

When a “woman’s rights” group responds to legal action against an organization committing dangerous and harmful crimes against women with “outrage,” it is really hard to take that group seriously. This is a twisted response by the The Women’s March revealing a lack of clarity and consistency in their worldview.

Would You Like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos to be Your Boss?

Posted on May 30, 2018 in Money by

Any CEO of a publicly traded company that relies on other people’s money to conduct business should treat questions about his company with more respect. Showing such contempt for shareholders as Musk has is no way to run a company.

Maybe Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon will do better at respecting shareholders money.

Maybe not.

Social Justice Warriors Make Bad Financial Advisors

Hogg likely neglected to realize his Twitter army is composed of millennials and other activists looking to take on the gun industry. It’s entirely possible that most of Hogg’s Twitter followers don’t even have an investment account. The question his team of PR advisers might have forgotten to ask is “how many of these followers have influence in the investment management space?” The answer is clearly: none.
