In the modern cathedrals of pop-Christianity, where the beats of "worship music" resonate just a tad louder than doctrinal integrity, a new portrait of Jesus has been painted—one that bears less resemblance to the God revealed to us in Scripture and more to a...
Presuppositional apologetics is an approach within Christian apologetics that asserts that one's foundational beliefs, or presuppositions, form the basis for all reasoning. In essence, it contends that everyone comes to the table with a set of presupposed beliefs or...
The Gospel Coalition has made quite the proposition suggesting that a novel source of enlightenment awaits the Church in the most unlikely of places: Barbie. Their article confidently boasts, "Why ‘Barbie’ Matters for the Church." Indeed, amidst centuries of church...
It seriously seems like everywhere you see a congregation of false prophets, there you will find Ed Stetzer wrapped up right in the middle of it. That should tell you something about Stetzer.Ed Stetzer is a former LifeWay executive who, during his reign, experienced a...
This has been quite the summer for movie-themed shenanigans in the pulpit. If it isn't Saddleback pastors dressing up like Toy Story characters, then it's a Top Gun-themed sermon. And if not that, then it's a clown building a bird's nest on stage, climbing in it, and...
Adorned in a Planned Parenthood stole, a woman masquerading as a "pastor" of God's sheep heralds the mantra of death as she celebrates her own two abortions from the pulpit. As the true church, largely compromised, at best, on this issue, stands silent in the face of...
In today's rapidly changing cultural landscape, it is becoming even more important for the church to defend our younger generation by teaching and standing firm on the foundational truths of Scripture. One of the most contentious topics of our day is the issue of...
You may remember a few years ago when Shawn Nepstad, the former pastor of People Church, hauled a dumpster on stage and climbed in it, and began to preach from the dumpster. No, that was not satire, you can see the clip here if you like. But the level of tomfoolery...
The megachurch industrial complex is grappling with a significant dilemma. Often, these churches start small, but are built around a production or personality rather than the gospel itself. It's rare to see a large church that doesn't depend on some form of...
In a world feverishly engaged in an unrestrained pursuit of "progress," the demarcation line between secular culture and shallow, cultural Christianity is not merely fading—it is being intentionally obliterated. To be clear, the line between the pagan culture and...
"Dr." Kevin M. Young has unlocked a mystery that has baffled theologians for centuries. With the clatter of his keyboard, he has pinpointed the downfall of modern Christianity, and it's nothing so profound as a departure from biblical truth or a failure to preach...
Every Sunday, across the globe, congregations gather in church buildings, expecting not only to hear the Word of God but often to be entertained. We see the theatrical spectacle of contemporary churches engaging in “culturally relevant” productions, sermon series...
There is a welcomed trend of churches arming themselves with the Scriptures to teach important messages about the faith that we should find encouraging. Church after church, pastor after pastor, they're all opening the Scriptures, preaching Christ and Him crucified,...
The pages of Scripture are permeated with a resplendent theme: the inestimable and unspeakable love of God. This love cascades through time and eternity, an everlasting torrent of grace and mercy. We are taught even as little children the profound simplicity of love,...
Anyone who argues that drag shows are "just entertainment" and not sexualized is by definition what God calls those who "justify the wicked" in Proverbs 17:15. The drag cult is a sex cult. The cult of Dionysus was a Greek mystery religion centered around the worship...

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...
In an op-ed published by Newsweek, aptly titled “I'm Billy Graham's Granddaughter and I'm Voting for Kamala Harris,” Jerushah Duford, granddaughter of the late evangelist Billy Graham, once again steps into the political fray—this time to endorse Kamala Harris in the...
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...
