An effective challenge to contemporary political correctness

Lewis offers what turns out to be a remarkably accurate diagnosis of the cultural rot and hypocrisy that is destroying liberalism.

Concentration Required

An amassed gathering of separate articles/essays which approach how Christians should or could present itself in the world.

The Trouble With X is a masterpiece! I can readily relate to it. Worth reading for this alone! However, there are very many thought provoking articles and definitely a resource to return to.
