The Masculine Virtue of Plain Speech
David J. Pence • March 10, 2025
It is a virtue to be a plain-spoken man who is direct, assertive, bold, and authoritative. These traits project strength and allow a man to lead well. But they are dangerous when misused. So how must a Godly man use his words?

First In, Last Out, Laughing Loudest: A Picture of Godly Headship
David J. Pence • September 19, 2024
For this is what it means to be a king: to be first in every desperate attack and last in every desperate retreat, and when there's hunger in the land (as must be now and then in bad years) to wear finer clothes and laugh louder over a scantier meal than any man in your land.

There are three things that, according to the Bible, are absolutely necessary to the salvation of every man and woman in Christendom.

He who lacks any one of these three things is not a true Christian in the sight of God, and will not be found in heaven and glorified in the last day if he dies in that condition.
