Learning from Lord Mackay: The Role of Two Kingdoms in the Christian Public Life
I am regularly asked to review books. I have the far too little time to undertake most of these requests. But such is the opportunity of authors who have many friends who are also authors. When I can, and if the subject of the book interests me, I try to read my friends’ books and write short reviews.
Thus I received the request to read and review, 
Learning From Lord Mackay: Life and Work in Two Kingdoms (SoS Books, Alberta, BC, 2017). The author, J. Cameron Frazer, asked me to read his book last year. I promised only to try. Finally, I am able to honor that promise.
I confess I did not even know the name James Mackay until Cameron sent me his little book. Now I am grateful he did. Why? For starters, I am deeply interested in the way the church should engage with political and social powers. As an American, living thorough the period now called Trumpism, I believe Christians should be concerned for issues related to public life because such issues are […]
Deacons & Service (A Guest Article)
Deacons & Service
Roy Hill II
As a deacon, my desire with this writing is to objectively address the spiritual and biblical reality that being a deacon, a servant, is a priceless service-opportunity available to people in different walks of life. I acknowledge challenges to engaging this opportunity. And I encourage knowing that we can overcome the challenges which may be either myopic, self-imposed, or simply Satanic (John 10:10).
The Free Dictionary and Merriam-Webster respectively define Deacon as: “a lay assistant to a Protestant minister” and a person who is “elected by a church with congregational polity to serve in worship, in pastoral care, and on administrative committees.”
Christian author and speaker Jerry Bridges … in addressing service and love … says a scripturally transparent expression of “love” is “fellowship” or “sharing with others.” He says we can share ourselves – our gifts, time, and talents as in “doing helpful deeds for another” (1 Corinthians 12).
Bridges says: Servanthood “requires no special talent or special gifts …. And if God has given us certain natural abilities, we also want to […]
How Do I Take Up My Cross Daily?
One of the most astounding and deeply troubling commands of Jesus in the accounts of the four Gospels occurs in Luke 9.
22 “The Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
23 Then he said to them all, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 24 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will save it. 25 What does it profit them if they gain the whole world, but lose or forfeit themselves?
Why did Jesus ask his disciple these questions, and make these commands, in Luke 9?
It seems apparent that the time had come for Jesus to announce his passion much more openly. Jesus had not only come to open the door to the resurrection for those who followed […]
