The Errant Theology of “You’re Pushing People Away from Jesus”

March 1, 2020 by Tony Miano 1 Comment

A common objection to most forms of public/street evangelism, especially open-air preaching--an objection made by professing Christians--is the notion of "pushing people away from Jesus." The argument goes like this: "If you do [blank], then unbelievers will be pushed away from Jesus." As I will show in this article, there is no biblical support for this claim. A Request from … [Read more...]

God’s Word: More Precious than Gold and Sweeter than Honey

February 15, 2020 by Tony Miano Leave a Comment

King David, the psalmist, loved God's Word. He likened Scripture to fine gold and sweet honey. In Psalm 19, he uses six terms, descriptions, and effects to make his point. In doing so, David produced one of the most beautiful stanzas ever written about the inerrant, infallible, God-breathed Scriptures. The Text "The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the … [Read more...]

Morning Devotions: How It Started On January 1, 2017, I determined to read the entire Bible before the year's end. I also wanted to encourage others to do the same.

Apologetics: I Crushed His Worldview; So What?

November 4, 2019 by Tony Miano 4 Comments

Presuppositional apologetics is a powerful weapon in the arsenal of the street evangelist. It isn't difficult to crush a person's godless worldview. But if that is all that is accomplished, so what? Crosswalking at Locust and Harrison The sun was out, but the temperature was only in the low 40's. The wind chill dropped the temperature into the 30's. It's late in the year, so … [Read more...]

Everyday Exhortations: Trusting God in Affliction

April 7, 2019 by Tony Miano 1 Comment

Psalm 56 is a psalm of David, which he wrote for one of his three choir directors. He wrote it to the tune of another song by the title “A Silent Dove Far Away.” David refers to this psalm as a “Miktam.” There are six “Miktams” in the psalms—Psalm 16, and Psalms 56-60. While we don’t know for certain what a Miktam actually is, some speculate that the term is related to the … [Read more...]
