Every article here is a Christian response to today’s news — the headlines, the controversies, the questions ordinary people are asking. This is not a noisy place. It is a quiet place that says hard things plainly. Lone Trumpet exists to encourage the faithful, to challenge the comfortable, and to invite the seeker — without apology and without compromise on matters of faith, but with the patience and the kindness that the gospel itself requires.
For the seeker

If your heart is stirring, we will walk you through what it means and how to begin. And if you need honest reasons before you can believe anything, we will give you those first.
