Today, Tiger Woods broke his public silence regarding his extramarital affairs by saying he was “so sorry” for his irresponsible and selfish behavior. He admitted and apologized for disappointing his fans and causing them pain. “I have a lot to atone for, ” he said.

Buddy Christ, the unforgettable icon from the very forgettable movie Dogma, was a welcome spoof of the troubling lengths Christians go to try to make Jesus chummy and non-threatening. I just saw these figurines in the mall and was tempted to buy one. I can think of a few pastors and colleagues who would get [...]

We liked him so much when he guest posted, we’ve asked Paul Vander Klay to be a regular Think Christian contributor. Thankfully, he said yes!   He’s no stranger to TC as he’s been hanging out and commenting on posts for some time.
Paul is the pastor of the Living Stones Christian Reformed Church in [...]

On our summer vacation, my friend Ron was dreaming up a series of short videos to explore some church-goers’ foibles and bad assumptions. We spent some time chatting about worship—what it’s for, why we do it, how it’s structured, what the point is.
After months of percolation, this weekend he posted the results.
So, are you a [...]
