Matt, Ken, and Kenny continue their discussion about one of the most important questions a Christian can ask: what is the Gospel?

“Give all the glory to God!” Fernando Mendoza, quarterback of the Indiana University football team, begins interviews after victories that way. It’s not that unusual in football, where professions of Christian faith are part of the culture. It’s a bit unusual in Mendoza’s case, as he is Catholic, and it is usually evangelical Protestants who speak about God in their postgame interviews.

This week’s oral arguments before the Supreme Court, in cases involving state laws that ban boys from girls’ sports, may prove to be a decisive turning point in the surreal political struggle over gender ideology.

I don’t know how it came to happen that I, of all people, ended up with a daughter as biddable and sweet natured as I did. It’s not genetic, that’s for sure. She’s universally doted upon, to be sure, especially since we waited more than a decade — I won’t say always patiently, though usually prayerfully — for her arrival.
