Don Overcash: Discipleship starts at home (guest opinion) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Not long ago the answer came without hesitation: the parents. Raising children was never simple, but mothers and fathers bore the weight of it — accountable finally to God, the Giver of children as gifts. “Children are a heritage from the Lord” (Psalm 127:3, ESV). That conviction shaped a culture. Our nation was founded on principles that assumed a Creator both holy and love — the God before whom the seraphim cry, “Holy, holy, holy” (Isaiah 6:3), and of whom John writes, “God is love” (1 John 4:
Don Overcash: When offense becomes a weapon (guest opinion) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We live in an age when offense is treated not as a feeling to examine, but as a right to enforce. Someone feels insulted, uncomfortable or contradicted, and suddenly another person must be silenced, removed or made to apologize. That differs from the older moral meaning of “offense.” To give offense once meant more than hurting feelings. It meant committing moral wrong, violating God’s law, or becoming a stumbling block that led another into sin. Jesus warned, “Temptations to sin are sure to com
Don Overcash: When the law protects silence, what does love require? (guest opinion) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
That reaction is understandable, but incomplete. The Fifth Amendment was born of hard memory, framed against a history of governments using coercion and compelled confession to secure convictions.

It is not a loophole for the guilty, but a safeguard for the citize
Don Overcash: Discipleship requires discipline, not excuses (guest opinion) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Our culture is awash in excuses. We excuse anger as authenticity, self-indulgence as freedom, and moral compromise as personal choice. But Jesus never invited people to excuse sin; he called them to follow him. And following Jesus requires discipline, especially in an age that treats self-control as repression and holiness as old-fashioned. The apostle Paul urges believers in 1 Thessalonians 4:1-3 to “live a life pleasing to God” and to “abstain from sexual immorality.” That is not the language
Don Overcash: Unity or illusion — Where do you stand? (guest opinion) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In a culture increasingly driven by approval, many people quietly measure their lives by how well they fit in. Social acceptance has become a kind of currency. We adjust our views, soften our convictions and curate our identities to avoid standing out too sharply. The pressure is subtle, but constant. The Christian life was never meant to be shaped by the fear of others’ opinions. The Apostle Paul writes, “We instructed you how to live in order to please God … now we ask you and urge you … to do
