The judgment of God may be long in coming, but it comes with vengeance. For ancient Babylon, that time came when Daniel foretold the doom of the king. We in America should take heed, as Babylon’s story might also be ours.

Every day, government and societal pressure mounts on the Christian faith. How should believers react? For guidance, we can look to a similar time of strife long ago. The place was Babylon, and the minority Jews were in the midst of a hostile culture.
August 2, 2015
In America, Christians are rapidly becoming like Daniel and his friends in Babylon: out of sync with their pagan environment.  How do we reconcile what we believe with what we have to do to live in our culture?
July 26, 2015
Should believers living in a country that’s suffering under God’s judgment simply recede from public life?  Or should they engage their culture with enthusiasm?  The surprising answer to this dilemma comes from God’s instructions to the captive nation of Judah living in Babylon.

When the judgment of God comes upon us, things we hold dear can be laid to waste. The city of Jerusalem was sacked and looted by invading armies—and this was in line with the plan and will of God.
July 12, 2015
When the cup of iniquity is full, God will pour out His wrath. Armies invaded and looted Jerusalem, taking the people into captivity. The United States may soon feel that same wrath if we don’t learn the lessons from a nation long ago.

Many people think they are masters of their own destiny.  But God sees His people as clay on a potter’s wheel, and since He’s the potter, He is in control of their destiny.  Let’s learn to see ourselves as vessels God can make and remake as He chooses.

In ancient Israel, false prophets put lies about God into the minds of the people. The same is true in our day. They diminish His holiness, and exaggerate their own goodness to hide their real motives.

God had Babylon take Israel captive after the people turned to idolatry. God won’t tolerate endless disobedience from His people—He didn’t then, and He won’t today.
June 14, 2015
After a long period of nation-wide disobedience, God judged Israel by allowing Babylon to cart them off into captivity. They became a minority in a pagan land just as Christians are fast becoming a minority in America today.

Philip holds a B.A in Pre-Seminary Bible from Cedarville University (’04) and a Th.M. in Pastoral Leadership and New Testament Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary (’10). His wife, Krista, also holds an Th.M. degree from DTS. They have four children: Claire, Violet, Cora, and Jude.

Philip is a visionary leader with over twelve years of ministry experience, including three at Christ Community Church in the western Chicago suburbs and nearly seven as Senior Pastor at Westwood Baptist in Olympia, WA. He believes people flourish as followers of Jesus when they live deeply in the gospel, experience the healing of true community, and join Jesus on mission in their world. He is committed to cultivating a gospel-centered church that welcomes spiritual explorers, promotes gospel clarity in culturally engaging ways, inspires passionate worship, fosters deep spiritual vitality, empowers people to holistic discipleship, and catalyzes a multiplication movement of gospel renewal both locally and globally.
