Evangelicals & Justice, Moral Formation, and Father Involvement Outcomes
Introduction — When Leniency Ignores Character Signals Justice symbolizes moral boundaries, not emotional reaction A recent troubling and utterly mind-boggling sentencing decision has been brought to my attention.

Evangelicals & Jesse Jackson’s Social Gospel & Abortion Flip
Introduction: When the Prophetic Voice Changes Sides Jesse Jackson once spoke with moral clarity against abortion, identifying it as a profound injustice against the most vulnerable. Over time, however, that clarity gave way to political calculation, as Jackson aligned himself with a progressive coalition that treats abortion not as a moral tragedy, but as a protected “right.” The Jesse Jackson Social Gospel represents a theological shift in which political coalition buildin
