The Supreme Court has now done what institutional conservatives so often do when the machinery starts growling. It took a liberal assumption, treated it like ancient constitutional granite, polished it with precedent, and handed it back to the country as though the...

Louisiana pastor Tony Spell is in trouble after beating up a 20-year-old man across the street from his church in Baton Rouge. According to Spell, he was working on a church bus when the man started shouting at him and threatened to rape his wife, rape his...

Today, right in the middle of Pride Month—a month-long celebration of sexual anarchy—we are granted a brief intermission. For twenty-four glorious hours, we can set aside the endless lectures about identity and self-expression and redirect our attention toward an...

Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, New York legislators pass a law replacing “mother” and “father” in portions of its legal code with “gestating parent” and “non-gestating parent.” Read that again. A mother is now a gestating parent. A father is now a...

Looking at these “Pride Night” spectacles, it's hard not to think of the old Dionysian cult festivals of the ancient world. The modern LGBT cult may not be offering wine to a Greek god, but the similarities between the movements are difficult to ignore....

In a healthy church, meeting with the pastor shouldn’t feel like winning a raffle. That was my first thought when I heard Josh Howerton describe giving church members a “once in a maybe lifetime opportunity” to sit down and ask their pastor questions. Read that again....

A few weeks ago, at Temple Beth El in Charlotte, ordained PCUSA minister Rebecca Todd Peters stood in the pulpit wearing a Planned Parenthood stole and offered what may be one of the most grotesque reinterpretations of Scripture you’ll hear this year....

Yesterday, Beth Moore emerged from whatever cave she has been hiding in since abandoning her Southern Baptist church several years ago and unleashed a lengthy social media tirade aimed at Southern Baptists who continue to believe that God's Word means what it says...

For more than fifty years, America legalized the slaughter of her own children while calling it everything from “healthcare” to “compassion for women.” The blood soaked into the floorboards of the republic while judges in black robes patted themselves on the back for...

There used to be a time when seminaries existed to forge men who feared God more than man. Men who could stand in a pulpit with a spine made of iron and say, “Thus saith the Lord,” even if the whole room hissed back at them. Men who understood that shepherding...

There is something deeply unsettling about watching a man stand on a stage with a Bible in his hand, speaking with the cadence of a preacher while slowly dissolving the very attributes of God that make the gospel necessary in the first place. Not in one violent motion...

Rome had a strange smell near the end of its empire. Historians don’t really talk about that part. They write about military campaigns and collapsing currencies and corrupt emperors with grapes hanging from their fingers while boys danced in silk before them. But I...

Tim Keller spent years cultivating the image of the calm Evangelical intellectual—the reasonable man in the room, the thoughtful urban pastor who translated historic biblical Christianity for the modern world. Soft-spoken, measured, and winsome. Never shrill. Never...

You’re probably aware by now of Sam Allberry’s resignation this past weekend after it was exposed he, a self-described “gay Christian,” had an “inappropriate relationship” with another man. Allberry has been a prominent advocate of what is called “Side B”...

From the very beginning, the church has had to guard her gates like a city under siege. Not from armies with banners and swords, but from men who speak the right words just long enough to earn trust, then quietly begin rearranging the furniture while nobody’s looking....

If you needed another reason to pull your children from public schools, look no further than this latest near-tragedy. The shadow falling across our nation is not an accidental byproduct of a few “troubled” individuals—it is the inevitable destination of a...

These ... clowns. Literal clowns. Some dude, draped in cheap polyester sequins and a wig that reeks of desperation, sits there. He’s playing pretend with kids. He’s wearing a caricature of womanhood like a skin suit, and he’s doing it in front of a child.“Do I look...

There’s a pattern in the charismatic movement—and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. Another leader crashes. Another “movement” staggers. Another circle of loyalists scrambles to explain, reinterpret, salvage. Not repent, but salvage. Not submit to Scripture, but...

Over Easter—of all times—spiritual charlatan, Paula White, stood in front of cameras and compared Donald Trump to Christ. Not subtly. Not loosely. Directly. She took the betrayal, the suffering, the cost, the language that belongs to the cross alone—and laid it at the...

“Antichrists are the dissembled enemies of Christ, who every manner of way are against the doctrine of Christ, whose followers they profess themselves to be (1 John 2:18–22; 4:3; 2 John 7).”— Amandus Polanus I keep coming back to that word, “dissembled.” Not open...

I thought I had heard it all. I really did. Paula White has spent years building a reputation as one of the most brazen purveyors of prosperity nonsense in modern evangelicalism—name it, claim it, decree it, declare it, speak it into existence. The whole tired script....

For years now, the modern transgender movement hasn’t operated like a loose collection of ideas. It’s functioned like a system—predictable, coordinated, and disturbingly efficient. Not chaos. Not confusion. A process. A conveyor belt—the transgender conveyor belt—as...

I wake up, grab my coffee, thumb the screen—and it’s the same grim parade, again. A man guns down a pregnant woman at a red light—her husband beside her—an unborn child erased in the same breath, and the system shrugs it off under the banner of insanity. Not...

The modern American imagination is an idol factory, and it has manufactured a version of Jesus that never existed. In this version, Jesus is soft-spoken, endlessly agreeable, and almost allergic to confrontation. He floats through the Gospels like a spiritual...
