Is YWAM Too Strong on Sin?
A recent article appeared in the Christian Post entitled, “YWAM Responds to Allegations of Spiritual Abuse: ‘Deeply Sorry.'”
It originated in England in the Observer–a British newspaper published on Sundays and sister paper to The Guardian. The article accused some U.K. YWAM leaders of being too “controlling” or involved in “spiritual abuse.”
YWAM quickly responded with an apology and explanation of our leadership values.
Youth With A Mission–one of the world’s largest Christian missionary organizations–has been accused of strong teaching on sin in the past. I know–because I’ve been one of the “accused.”

Pope Francis’ Legacy and my Prayers for the Catholic Church
Pope Francis died at the age of 88 in the early morning of April 21, 2025 (Easter Monday) after suffering a stroke. He was the 266th pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church, serving for twelve years (2013 – 2025).
He made his final public appearance on Easter Sunday, waving to the crowds at Vatican City from the “pope mobile.” His last known outside visitor was U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, who converted to Catholicism in his early 30’s.
Here are my thoughts on Pope Francis’ legacy and how I’m praying for the Roman Catholic Church.

Tariffs.
Here are my thoughts on tariffs and economic revival.
