America: American Discipleship

July 24, 2020 / Cortney Levine / Leave a comment

I became a Christian after my first year of college. I did not accept Jesus in a church or walk down the aisle to pray a prayer. I did not follow any sort of church track that led me through a series of several steps throughout consecutive weekends or months. I did not even become … Continue reading America: American Discipleship

America: The American Church

July 17, 2020 / Cortney Levine / 1 Comment

When Jesus left the earth, He made it pretty clear what His intentions were for His followers and the church. “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you” … Continue reading America: The American Church

America: The Gospel vs. The American Dream

July 10, 2020July 9, 2020 / Cortney Levine / Leave a comment

Every year around the 4th of July, Americans declare their patriotism, love, and support for “the greatest country in the world.” Because of the recent and ongoing strife in this country, from racism to pandemic, the narratives on social media varied last week as we celebrated the birth of this nation, but there were still … Continue reading America: The Gospel vs. The American Dream

America: Whose Country Do We Celebrate

July 3, 2020June 30, 2020 / Cortney Levine / Leave a comment

Do you ever wonder what the Twitter accounts of historical figures would look like if they were alive today? How many followers would they have? Who would love them or hate them? Would they even be a Twitter user? I don’t mean the fake accounts that exist to post quotes from the past. I mean … Continue reading America: Whose Country Do We Celebrate

Black Lives Matter: Being a White Ally

June 26, 2020June 26, 2020 / Cortney Levine / 1 Comment

When I was growing up, our family generally ate healthy food. I distinctly remember the days when my dad came home with a box of Little Debbie cakes or a giant bag of potato chips. He would eat the entire box or bag in one sitting. Those were sad days for me because our pantry … Continue reading Black Lives Matter: Being a White Ally

Black Lives Matter: I Will Always Be White

June 19, 2020June 18, 2020 / Cortney Levine / 1 Comment

Race is currently a hot topic, and I am a white woman married to a black man. Needless to say, I regularly learn new aspects of my whiteness, sometimes on a daily basis. The majority of the time, I learn new things simply by existing alongside my husband. Occasionally, he directly speaks to a blind … Continue reading Black Lives Matter: I Will Always Be White

Black Lives Matter: Confession of Whiteness

June 12, 2020June 11, 2020 / Cortney Levine / 2 Comments

The timing of a post like this is always difficult to discern, but I think it’s important that I publicly state that black lives matter and confess some aspects of my whiteness.  I live and was raised in the deep south, and growing up, I never really understood the extent of racism that still permeates … Continue reading Black Lives Matter: Confession of Whiteness

3 Things Needed to Walk with God

July 11, 2019July 18, 2019 / Cortney Levine / Leave a comment

Confession: I am playing catch up for the next several blogs. Eventually, my goal is to have the YouTube channel lined up with the blog postings on Fridays. In order to line up this schedule, the next few posts will continue to focus on the video content.  In the last post, I set up a … Continue reading 3 Things Needed to Walk with God

Just Like Riding a Bike

July 6, 2019 / Cortney Levine / 1 Comment

For the last year or so, some of my students have been discussing the possibility of me starting a YouTube channel in which I discuss and answer questions about Jesus. When the discussion first started, it seemed like a fun challenge to take on, but with teaching full-time and working on my PhD, there just … Continue reading Just Like Riding a Bike

The Refining Process

July 2, 2019July 2, 2019 / Cortney Levine / Leave a comment

The gospel is confrontational. Just this week while having coffee with a friend, I was discussing the fact that there is never really a time when the gospel is not confrontational. Unfortunately in America, it is sometimes fairly simple to present a “gospel” message that seems harmless and is relatively easy to accept and claim. … Continue reading The Refining Process
