The Southern Baptist Convention is at a crossroads once again this year as it faces multiple attacks from several progressive angles ranging from women pastors to woke ideology to homosexuality. Among the biggest challenges it faces this year is whether or not to...
The notion that God has a unique covenant with America, as Jesse Duplantis suggested in his Flashpoint conference speech, is a gross misinterpretation of biblical truth but a common theme among adherents to the hypercharismatic and adherents to the prosperity gospel....
Rick Warren, Saddleback Church's former pastor, is attempting to cloak his unbiblical false teachings in the legacy of Charles Spurgeon. Despite the fact that Saddleback is facing disfellowshipping from the Southern Baptist Convention—a scenario well-known and...
In these continual acts of staggering betrayal that blaze across the moral landscape of so-called "conservatism," the compromise on pro-life laws which still permit abortions can only be branded as Hell's compromise. Those who posture themselves as conservatives, yet...
The biblical narrative presents a vivid account of the Creation of humanity and the ensuing fall, a tragic event that separated us from our Creator and precipitated the spiritual and moral decline of mankind. The account, originating from the early chapters of Genesis...
Once again, Brent Leatherwood, the head of the Southern Baptist Convention’s (SBC) Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), is positioning himself as the singular voice of Southern Baptists, promoting progressive policies that do not align with the majority...
In case it has escaped your notice, the Christian world has been struck by another challenge to traditional sexual ethics and God has been given the proverbial middle finger as former Contemporary Christian Music celebrity, Trey Pearson, has recently "taken a...
The global Evangelical church stands at a crossroads, confronting a crisis of conscience that threatens to erode the very foundations of its faith. The persistence of Hillsong music within its sanctuaries, despite years of fervent warnings by discerning Christians, is...
Andy Stanley’s disdain for the Holy Scriptures is a well-established fact, and it is nothing new that he has been vocal in his condemnation of the inerrancy and authority of the Word of God. He has gone so far as to declare the Scriptures to be...
The Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) has faced several uphill battles over the last decade fighting an influx of progressive ideologies and so far, any conservative resistance has proven futile. Beginning in 2013 under the leadership of Democrat operative, Russell...
Founded in 1856 by Charles Haddon Spurgeon, the 'Prince of Preachers', Spurgeon's College in Croydon, London, historically has upheld a legacy of evangelical Christianity. Its founding mission: to train individuals in faithful Gospel proclamation. For nearly two...
As we traverse the tumultuous terrain of human history, we are confronted with the stark and horrifying reality of mankind's innate sinfulness. This glaring truth is not confined to secular spheres but has found its way into the very heart of sacred institutions,...
In the cosmic court of divine justice, humanity stands condemned, a prisoner to its iniquitous nature. It is here that two theological doctrines, 'imputed righteousness' and 'infused righteousness,' attempt to answer the same question: how can a sinful man be...
It's truly a marvel of modern thought, or lack thereof, this tendency to draw parallels between the most incongruous of characters, such as a career criminal who met his end in the midst of criminal activity, and Stephen, the first Christian martyr. It's as if the...
I'm not sure I can think of a better way to spend Mother's Day than by going to a church to be turned on to a blaspheming rapper who regularly drops the F-Bombs, takes the Lord's name in vain, and objectifies women in his music. I mean, isn't this the kind of role...

We left off yesterday with my having gotten clean and sober in court mandated Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and my subsequent disillusionment with AA, which was functioning as a religion of sorts in my life. I continued going to AA (and NA) meetings because I didn’t...
