The Good Wife, a new weekly drama on CBS, reacts to the one question everybody asks whenever there’s a press conference for a politician disgraced by a sex scandal, and his wife stands supportively next to him: what’s she doing there? Why isn’t she following Carrie Underwood’s advice and taking a Louisville Slugger to his [...]

What to make of Letterman? I find myself conflicted.
On his Late Show program Thursday night, David Letterman relayed the true story of a blackmail attempt against  him for $2 Million, starting about three weeks ago. Letterman’s response was both to have the extortioner arrested and, presumably to pull the teeth out of any future threats, [...]

I wrote earlier on celebrating sexuality within a Christian worldview. I still think the world yearns for affirmation of our sexuality from God’s point of view, especially since the world never hesitates to offer distortions and lies on the topic.
However, the most intriguing responses to me were the voices of Christian singles. I heard much [...]

One of the insider jokes here at ThinkChristian is that one of our top-visited posts even now—month after month consistently in our top five—is from 2007. Consistently, search engines lead people to us to discover “Hot Steamy Christian Sex.”
One of the ironies is that I talk about sex regularly. My wife and I lead marriage enrichment seminars and [...]

I sometimes find it amusing, and at other times rather irksome, the speed at which many Christians are able to pass negative judgment on secular art and culture; especially when these judgments are blatantly based more on a personal distaste than anything religious.  Often, I end up running into passionate by-the book-when-convenient Christians, who are [...]

Driving home last night I switched the radio from my normal news station to a local Christian station because I wanted to do a little singing.  I sang to the last half of one song and the whole next one, but then the station broke for a word from a women’s ministry.  The spot began [...]

Not surprising, the HBO special, The Trial of Ted Haggard, seems to put his former church on trial rather than the pastor who bought sex and meth from a male prostitute.
Lee Grady writes:
”. . . the tragic flaw of The Trials of Ted Haggard is [director Alexandra] Pelosi’s attempt to blame New Life Church for [...]

Recently Planned Parenthood in Indiana started selling gift certificates for services at their centers.  The organization is touting the self proclaimed “unusual” gift this way on it’s website:
Nearly 800,000 Hoosiers don’t have health insurance and can’t afford basic health services. Why not buy a loved one a gift this holiday season that they really need [...]

Is anyone else confused by the fact that “Twilight” has been adopted by champions of abstinence?
Moral-minded critics and skittish parents have latched onto the literal fact that the teen lovebirds in the movie never actually have sex. Yet considering all the anguished panting and heaving going on, I’d say “Twilight” has things on its mind [...]
