I Never Met Tim Keller But We Once Shared a Sidewalk

Reflecting on How Keller Shaped Me

Over the past few days, many have been sharing their personal stories of time with Tim Keller. The photos are all over the internet: backstage together at events, behind-the-scenes conversations at conferences, personal stories of notes, and encouraging words. It’s partly a reminder that no matter how great a person’s public reputation, what we most...

#VladdyDaddy and the West's Dismissal of Sin

As the world’s top diplomats, military strategists, and political leaders continue to construct a punitive global response to Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, the internet is offering another diplomatic possibility: charm Putin and just ask him to stop. The past week has sparked an online trend of young social media users posting on Russian profiles simply...

Christians, COVID, and The Fallacy of Twosideism

Fine, Here is What I Think About the Vaccine

Okay, fine, I’m vaccinated. I’ll admit it. As a writer, there is always a temptation to open with caveats, to carefully identify your location on the contours of the controversy you are about to wade into.

Chase Replogle

Chase Replogle is the pastor of Bent Oak Church in Springfield, Missouri and author of The 5 Masculine Instincts. Chase’s work draws from history, psychology, literature, and a rich narrative approach to Scripture to help readers think more deeply about faith and life.

He has written for Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, Ekstasis, Bible Engagement Project, and Influence Magazine. In addition, he hosts the Pastor Writer Podcast (pastorwriter.com), where he interviews Christian authors on writing and publishing. A native of the Ozark woods, he enjoys being outdoors with his wife and two kids, sailing, playing the mandolin (badly), and quail hunting with his bird dog Millie.

  • Link in bio. Got some big news. The 5 Masculine Instincts Study Guide is now available in print. If you're looking for a resource for a men's group, Father's Day, or retreat, I think it would work great. There is a video series, YouVersion plans, and an assessment.
  • Soundcheck for the recital. They nailed it. They continue to impress me with their talent, and most importantly, their work ethic.
  • Boat is clean and ready for the season.
  • Hard to believe this girl has graduated from kindergarten. Class of 2035…
  • First ever game of kid pitch baseball. Going to be a fun season.
  • Another great week in Holland Michigan at the Eugene Peterson Center. I’m learning a lot and forming so many friendships with amazing writers and people. Can’t wait to read all the work that will come out of these years… and fun to see a familiar cover at the Baker Book House in Grand Rapids.
  • Can’t think of a better way to have spent my birthday morning. Will‘s first turkey hunt. He did great. The bird came in gobbling and strutting. Doesn’t get much better.
  • Someone gave Charlotte a bag of googly eyes. She has been glueing them on everything she can turn into a face.
