Creativity by nature stretches boundaries. So when does a Christian creative go too far? On the Dash Dilemma, Christian liberty, and the courage to race for first place.

I know this idea may seem odd—foolish even (I’m so sorry), but follow me on a quick journey as to why I’ve reached this conclusion. A couple years ago, my wife and I sat down and watched a romance anime called My Happy Marriage on Netflix. I was NOT excited to watch this. I thought…

When the topic of commentaries comes up, you typically see reactions like the one above. Either it’s apprehensive confusion, genuine consideration, or flat out rejection. Here’s the question, ‘should you use commentaries?’ I’m going to spoil the answer for you: yes you should! However, it should be used sparingly like seasoning on a dish. What…

Before I continue any further concerning entertainment topics like anime, films, or video games, I want to first address the elephant in the room about Christians enjoying entertainment. This is somewhat of a contentious discussion in the Christian community and, as a result, I want to develop the biblical framework— a Christian guide you’d might…

Up until recently, Christians were notoriously known for making subpar (sometimes laughable) forms of entertainment. From movies, to TV shows, to video games, the Christian industry fell short, time and time again. Need I remind you of the famous words of David A.R. White? (No I don’t think I’ll ever let that go. Sorry David…

Oftentimes, when people think of ‘apologetics’ they think of either professional debaters such as Dr. Frank Turek or they think of internet fighters with quick thumbs in the comment section of Instagram, X, and YouTube. As a result, Christians tend to believe that apologetics is either for the special few who are educated, or for…

Let us answer the second part of the question: does theology matter? Yes! Theology is incredibly important for any Christian on this journey. Unfortunately, some Christians have created this unusual and unnatural dichotomy with theology. Either people are antinomian in the sense that theology is completely irrelevant and it ‘hinders’ the move of the Spirit,…
