Steven J. Lawson, a name synonymous with doctrinal precision, rock-solid Reformed theology, and more respect in the conference circuit than most people can imagine, has fallen. The man many considered an indomitable force of gospel preaching has become the latest...
When Kamala Harris launched her “Fight for Reproductive Freedoms” tour in Wisconsin last week, she invoked God in a bizarre plea for mothers who supposedly suffer the “unimaginable burden” of traveling to end their unborn children’s lives. Just ten years ago, such...
Picture this: the scorching Florida sun glaring down upon an endless line of scaly, ravenous reptiles, their gnarled bodies splayed across the banks of a green, murky swamp. Hundreds, thousands, of alligators, tangled in a slithering, heaving mess, their mouths agape...
In Mexico, tales of the chupacabra have become much more than just rural folklore. They’re stories with enough credible sightings to make you wonder if these bloodsucking creatures really do stalk the countryside. But whether or not they’re real hardly matters. What...
The popular television series, "The Chosen," sits comfortably at the center of the modern religious imagination, charming countless professing Christians with its picturesque portrayal of its gospel—another gospel. In the real world, where wolves dress up as lambs and...

One of my readers just sent me a link to this, and though I'm not at all surprised, shocked, or taken back by it, it's a perfect example of the caricature of their former selves that our nation's Ivy League institutions have become. Harvard University, once the...
Picture the dawn of October 31, 1517—a world on the brink of spiritual and cultural revolution. The cold morning air in Wittenberg bit at the hands of a young, restless monk as he walked distinctly determined through the streets, the sun barely rising to meet his...
Contrast—what a concept, simple yet immense. In its essence, contrast is the art of opposition, the power of two divergent things placed side by side, each making the other clearer, more defined, and more intense. It is the interplay of light against shadow, the...
Under a heavy sky, they circle—their black wings slicing the air in slow, silent anticipation. The vultures descend, talons stretched, to settle upon the rotting remains of faith laid bare in the dust. Their beaks are sharp and unforgiving, tearing into the sinews of...
I received this email from “Evangelicals for Harris”—the oxymoronically named organization that advocates for godless politics—this morning calling on the Trump campaign to “repent” for pointing out that a third-world Caribbean island’s streets are as trashy as its...
Michelle Obama’s latest comments have taken her brand of divisive “empowerment” to a new low as she addresses women, urging them to see themselves as “more than baby-making vessels.” But worse, she suggested they vote in favor of abortion rights, even if it means...
Justin Welby—Britain’s highest-ranking Church of England figure, yet increasingly more politician than pastor—demonstrates once again just how apostate the denomination is. When asked about “gay sex,” Welby says, essentially, as long as it’s within a “committed...

I saw a statistic this morning that spoke volumes about the current state of the American church. A recent survey revealed that 40% of regular churchgoers believe the church is largely irrelevant, while only 27% of the unchurched hold the same view. While the...
"David Hughes, the 'pastor' of Church by the Glades in Coral Springs, FL, has turned this 'church' into nothing short of a circus. Instead of nourishing souls with the gospel, Hughes seems more concerned with putting on a show. When a church trades the pulpit for a...
Tyler Perry, self-proclaimed Christian philanthropist, sure has a funny way of showing it. This is the same man who shelled out a cool million to T.D. Jakes, a false teacher infamous for his “prosperity gospel” and who has lately been caught up in the swirling scandal...
Imagine a church filled with self-professed Christians, self-proclaimed followers of Jesus Christ, convinced they know the mind of God but wholly unfamiliar with His Word. They argue they know what God would say, what He would do, what He would approve of or...
Once a co-host of the popular Reformed podcast The Mortification of Spin, alongside Carl Trueman and Todd Pruitt, Aimee Byrd seemed to be aligned with these self-proclaimed champions of Reformed theology. But it didn’t take long before this seemingly orthodox voice in...
Earlier this month, in the shadow of the Vatican—a monument to centuries of deception—an unsettling scene took shape as Catholics for Choice, a group of Satan’s steeple soldiers, draped a 50-foot quilt in front of the papal palace. These pro-choice papists,...

The war on children is real, and Disney is on the frontlines waging that war against them. And let’s be honest, everyone knows that Disney’s own sexual revolution isn’t just a weird little rebranding to stay “relevant” in modern cultural zeitgeist. No, Disney has...

Walk into almost any modern Evangelical church today, and you might be forgiven for wondering whether you've mistakenly stumbled into a concert hall, a corporate team-building event, or maybe even the set of a reality TV show. The flashing lights, slick branding, and...
What’s wrong with you people? R.C. Sproul asked this stinging question with the kind of directness that our culture so desperately needs today. While Sproul’s question was rooted in a theological context, it has become an icon in Christian circles for wondering out...

The tightrope we conservatives are forced to walk these days is starting to feel more like a razor's edge—painful, precarious, and sometimes downright unbearable. On the one hand, we have a GOP that can't seem to muster the backbone to stand firm on one of the most...
If you've followed The Dissenter for any amount of time, you may remember in 2019 when I wrote that the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral was not the tragic loss that many claimed it to be. Instead, I argued that it was a fitting symbol of the Roman Catholic Church's...
During the Protestant Reformation, the cry "No Peace with Rome" echoed like a thunderclap across Europe, a bold declaration by those who refused to compromise with the corruption and heresy festering within the Roman Catholic Church. The reformers knew that to align...
In the latest chapter of the DNC’s ongoing saga of spectacular contradictions and performative wokeness, we are now treated to the marvel of a "gender-neutral prayer room" at the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. It’s bad enough that the women’s...

In June 2023, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) appeared to take what we thought might be a decisive stand against the creeping influence of progressivism within its ranks by voting to amend its constitution to explicitly ban women pastors. What turned out to be...

The Gospel Coalition (TGC) is one of the Evangelical’s trunk lines for piping in worldliness and carnality straight into the heart of the church. If the three-ring circus that operates the organization isn’t busy finding gospel themes in Barbie or comparing Taylor...
