Bryce Wenger - Anabaptist Council For Truth

Zondervan Handbook of Biblical Archaeology [Randall Price; H. Wayne House]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Implicit in accepting the Bible’s inerrancy is accepting it as history. Those who separate theological truth from historical truth, as it turns out, create an acid that destroys everything it touches. The Bible simply cannot be right about marriage, or human dignity, or justification if it’s wrong about the history of man’s […]

Why Social Justice is Not Biblical Justice [Scott Allen]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

This past year, the polarizing prominence of Black Lives Matter has brought the social justice movement to everyone’s doorstep. Increasingly, those blissfully or willfully ignorant are forced to take sides – to share the right posts on social media, to put up the right sign in the yard, to signal the right […]

Why Bother with the Church [Sam Allberry]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

By the world’s estimation, the church has been sliding – for several decades – down the track of obsolescence. Though once a pillar of Western society, the church no longer enjoys popularity or social approval. And increasingly, not just the world, but also the next generation of church members is asking “Why […]

When People are Big and God is Small [Edward T. Welch]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

When People are Big and God is Small by Edward T. Welch is one of those books that I’ve heard about—even had on my shelf—but never actually read. Perhaps that’s because it addresses a problem far easier to see in others than ourselves. Sure, we all felt insecure as teenagers or bowed […]

When Home Hurts [Jeremy Pierre; Greg Wilson]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

What does the word “home” evoke in you? To me, home is a light left on when you return after dark, the scent of bread baking, familiar voices in the next room. But for those suffering domestic abuse, home is an ugly place, an edifice of pain and fear. When Home Hurts, […]

The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self [Carl Trueman]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Why does the statement “I am a woman trapped in a man’s body” make sense? Why do ordinary people accept those words as meaningful? The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self is Carl Trueman’s attempt to answer that question. Trueman—a professor, historian, and Christian—explains that the sexual revolution did not arise […]

The Rage Against God [Christopher Hitchens]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Of all the ideologies that reject the Christian God, atheism seems the most difficult to answer. How should we respond to its professed monopoly on reason or its withering tirades? Yet that intellectual exterior, as Peter Hitchens shows us, is just new paint on regular old rebellion. Upon realizing […]

The Peacemaking Church [Curtis Heffelfinger]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Anabaptists are often called “the quiet in the land” – outsiders know us for our unpretentious, hardworking, peace-loving ways. Peace-loving, that is, until it comes to church problems. Instead of cultivating peace, we tear each other down, take sides against our brothers, and split churches over trifles. Should not our inconsistency alarm […]

The Mystery and Glory of the Church [Todd Neuschwander]

by Bryce Wenger Todd Neuschwander / August 15, 2025

As any regular attender knows, church is a messy business. God meant well, we admit, but painful divisions and disappointing imperfections seem to jam the gears at every turn. Perhaps church is not really so necessary after all, we think. Perhaps God made a mistake. Yet in spite of all her […]

The Making of Biblical Womanhood [Beth Allison]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Some readers may be familiar with the current fight over female pastors in the Southern Baptist Convention. The Making of Biblical Womanhood, a recent release by Baptist and historian Beth Allison Barr, claims to prove that evangelicals invented biblical womanhood to subjugate women. This month we take a look at her book […]

The Greener Grass Conspiracy [Steven Altrogge]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

We have everything – stocked refrigerators and overflowing garages and peaceful democracy – but contentment can be hard to come by. That’s because discontentment, according to Steven Altrogge, is a big conspiracy by Satan, the world, and our hearts to keep us looking for happiness in all the wrong places. Thankfully his […]

The Dynamic Heart in Daily Life [Jeremy Pierre]

by Bryce Wenger / August 15, 2025

Biblical counseling sometimes gets caricatured as “take two verses and call me in the morning.” If we’re honest, sometimes there is a bit of truth to that critique. It’s easy to say that the man who yells at his wife has an anger problem or that the teen struggling with pornography has […]
