Friends, Here’s a fresh post to help provide some relief from habitual doomscrolling.
First up: AI
AI is impacting, probably more than we realize. It is making a very large mark on young minds, with the crater growing ever wider and deeper as time passes. We need to think through our uses of AI, especially concerning our children. Keith Plummer at Cairn University recognizes many concerning aspects of AI and he has interviewed several experts as well as presented his own analyses in public forums.
On defragmenting, Keith talks with Emily Harrison. I think you will find it informative, challenging, and a well-considered conversation.
The Truth About The Bible and Early Christianity
Michael Horton gathers with Wes Huff, Michael Kruger, and Daniel Wallace. They go around the table for an informative and exciting roundtable conversation.
The Nicene Creed
In this “helpful things”, I’ll share two addresses from the Sola Media and Credo 2025 Trinity Conference. First up is Michael Reeves – Why the Nicene Creed and Why Now? This was the opening address for the conference.

Fred Sanders is a tremendously helpful trinitarian theologian. I have had the blessing of hearing him speak in person on more than one occasion. I always learn something biblical, sound, and life-giving from him. Here he gives an explanation of the “Nicene Line” for protecting the trinitarian nature of God.
Honoring the Lord in Apologetics
I became aware of Derek Rishmawy several years ago while attending an EFCA theology conference. He didn’t speak, but was very involved in support of the speakers that year. A few years later, during another EFCA theology conference, Derek proved to be a helpful presenter and theologian. In the following article, he gives timely input concerning how we approach the apologetic endeavor. Please click on the image to open Derek’s article.
How to Ward Off Despair
Finally, we close out this edition of “helpful things” with an address by D. A. Carson.
