Controversies & Case Studies

Controversies & Case Studies gathers essays on significant disputes, flashpoints, and public debates that have shaped Christian conversations over time.

So we aren’t allowed to celebrate American Christian Heritage Month because it offends a certain group of people.

What Did You Learn About Enoch Powell and Illegal Immigration In School?

I’m going to go out on a limb and say not only did none of us learn about Enoch Powell in school, most of us have never heard of him before even as adults.  I wonder why that is? Maybe because he told the truth about illegal immigration destroying his country far ahead of his …

While these activities are often done by well-intentioned people, further study should raise serious red flags about their place in a Christian home or church.

The Shiloh Hendrix Incident and the End of White Guilt

I didn’t pay much attention to the Shiloh Hendrix story in real time because I had a very full and demanding week. For that reason, I didn’t realize how much it was blowing up until I looked into it a bit. I did share several opinions about it on Telegram yesterday. I’ve been writing about …

Sallie Schaaf Borrink

I’m a Christian, wife, homeschool mom, battle-seasoned blogger, and happy warrior for Christ. I discuss how Christians who don’t fit dominant institutional church and cultural narratives are already living truthfully and faithfully in the body of Christ.

A Christian Nation

"The real object of the first amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance, Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to a hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government."

Joseph Story (Associate Justice of the Supreme Court), Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States (1833), § 1871.

countenance: To favor; to encourage by opinion or words; To encourage; to appear in defense (Websters Dictionary 1828)
