Actress Candace Cameron Bure and podcaster Tara-Leigh Cobble recently pushed back against certain popular Christian phrases that misinterpret the Bible.

Too many Christians, even those who may not go as far as to call the Genesis account false, seem embarrassed by it. A purely naturalistic and neo-Darwinian account of human origins now dominates both the academy and the wider culture, and most Christians simply lack the confidence to engage the issue at all. So instead, they merely accept the claim that Genesis should be filed away under ancient creation myths with all the others.

Not only does this approach ignore the scientific doubts growing about these theories mistaken for fact and fail to take Jesus’ professed belief about the Genesis account seriously, it leaves unquestioned the assumed premise. Are the similarities between the biblical account of creation and other ancient accounts as obvious and conclusive as we are told?

Archaeologists in Israel announced this week that the site where Jesus Christ healed a blind man by the Pool of Siloam will be excavated and made open to the public for the first time.

Jesus died for our sins as an adult. He did nearly everything we know of his earthly life as an adult: healing the sick, raising the dead, walking on water, and calming storms. In fact, except for one episode when he was twelve (Luke 2:41-51), we have nothing in the gospels about Jesus’ life from his birth to the beginning of his adult ministry.

If he did nothing else as a baby, child, or teenager that needed to be recorded in Scripture, why did he come as a baby who then experienced life as a child and a teenager before becoming an adult? Why did he not simply appear as the adult we see in his earthly ministry?

Three-quarters of U.S. adults believe the nation has forgotten the true meaning of Christmas, according to a new survey that examined Americans’ attitudes on everything from holiday songs to Christmas decorations.
