On Dr. Mohler’s Criticism of the CA Appeals Court

Filed Under: Law
Today Dr. Mohler published a brief commentary on a California Appeals Court’s recent decision declaring that parents do not have a constitutional right to homeschool their children.

What is truth? Pilate asks, Jesus answers

What is truth? The Gospel of John deals often with the subject of truth. In this Gospel, Pontius Pilate comes face to face with Jesus and is confronted with the claim of absolute truth.
