You may remember Jamal Bryant, a master manipulator who cloaks his racial demagoguery in the theatrics of a charismatic preacher. I’ve written about him before. From comparing Kamala Harris to Esther to proposing marijuana farms on church property, Bryant has never...
JT Inglish, lead pastor of Storyline Church in Arvada, Colorado, has been appointed to serve on the SBC’s Committee on Committees for the 2025 annual meeting. This influential position helps shape the future leadership of the denomination, making it all the more...
The lights dim. A soft purple haze spreads across the stage, a carefully manufactured mist rising from hidden fog machines like some mystical veil between heaven and earth. The lead singer, a guy with the vocal timbre of a teenage boy penning poetry in his journal,...
Paula White is trash. There, I said it. She's a false teacher, a peddler of snake oil, a carnival barker draped in pseudo-Christian robes, hawking a gospel of greed with all the theological depth of a used car salesman promising that a lemon will last forever. She is...
If we’ve seen nothing in the last decade or so, we’ve seen a massive influx of cultural decline and gender confusion. In the midst of this, soon-to-be Vice President JD Vance strides onto the battlefield like a general rallying his troops. Speaking at CPAC, he didn’t...
Wheaton College, a school that was once known for its firm stance on biblical orthodoxy, now serves as an all-you-can-eat buffet for theological drift. The latest spectacle? David Bennett, a Revoice speaker, prancing onto the stage in an exaggerated, overtly feminine...
Jessica Bates was a mother of five, a woman who knew what it meant to love, to sacrifice, to open her home to those in need. She wasn’t asking for much—just the chance to take in a child from Oregon’s foster care system, a system that, incidentally, never seems to...
Mike Todd has been off the radar for a while, but every now and then, he rears his head, begging for a response to something so cringeworthy—and blasphemous—that it demands attention. You may remember Mike Todd from that time he turned tithing into a million-dollar...
There was a time when mocking God was a dangerous business. There was a time when scorning His people carried a cost. And there was a time when conservative Christians in America weren’t the preferred punching bags of Hollywood’s sneering elites. But that time is long...
Rick Warren stepped in it, and now he’s scrambling to clean up the mess. A few days ago, he tweeted out a mind-numbingly shallow take, twisting John 19:18 into a ham-fisted political metaphor, suggesting that the "real Jesus," because he was crucified between two...
Rick Warren has never been known for theological depth, but every once in a while, he manages to produce something so astoundingly ridiculous that it demands a response. His latest tweet is a shining example. In a bizarre attempt at political commentary, Warren claims...
The Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) is, at this point, nothing more than a self-righteous speed bump on the road to actual justice. And at the helm of this sputtering, compromised machine sits Brent Leatherwood, the kind...
In the ancient world, the sick and dying would embark on desperate pilgrimages to the sanctuaries of Asclepius, the Greek god of healing. These were not hospitals. These were temples—shrines of mysticism where hope and illusion walked hand in hand. Scattered across...
I previously wrote to you demonstrating how the Democrat-backed federal government has been laundering money through USAID and other taxpayer-funded slush funds, funneling it into the hands of anti-American, anti-conservative faux Christian ministries like The After...
I hesitate to continue writing about Donald Trump, as I want to be clear that I do not view him as any kind of messianic figure, savior of the nation, or a “Christian” hero. He is not—he is simply the result of a nation that is, if nothing but for a momentary reprieve...

Editor’s Note: The following article was submitted by a reader and is shared here in its entirety, exactly as it was received. It is a deeply personal testimony that engages candidly and biblically with a topic often clouded by confusion. While the views expressed are...
I ran across a tweet the other day that lodged itself in my mind like a thorn. It was from Genevieve Gluck, a name that occasionally floats across the radar of gender-critical feminism, usually sounding some kind of alarm about the degradation of womanhood at the...
I ran across a tweet by Elon Musk this morning that got me thinking—a rare moment of clarity slicing through the pious fog of evangelical open-borderism. It showed a crowd of South African leftists—dressed in their standard-issue revolutionary cosplay—chanting in...
It started, as these things often do, with a simple question. A seemingly nice lady on Twitter—yet a representative of the typical emotionally charged illogical reasoning of the mainstream pro-life movement—wanted to know how I think my church should handle a woman in...
