Matt Maher: It’s Yours (4 min)

The first 30 seconds are misdirection but stick around for the transition for this great one.

Not so long ago the AMA was puffing the tobacco industry 

When we aren’t in a position to evaluate something for ourselves – when we don’t have the needed expertise – then the next best thing we can do is evaluate the trustworthiness of the experts we’re forced to rely on (Matt. 7:20, Prov 12:17).

This cartoon Intelligent Design presentation is a fun watch but, admittedly, gets pretty technical. Fortunately, you don't need to get it all to catch the gist: that evolutionary explanations for the origin of life don't explain it at all. The one-sided environmental thinking behind Avatar: The Way of Water While this is a secular critique of what has become the 6th highest-grossing film of all time, the latter half lines up with God's mandate for us to have dominion over Creation (Genesis 1:26-28): ours isn't simply to have a hands-off approach.

Folks who are too scared to define "woman" really want us to define the term "woke." Can we do it? Yes we can. Tim Challies on the changing of the dictionaries Dictionary.com's word of the year for 2022 was "woman" but how long will they have a clear definition of it?
