The pontiff is dead. And no, the bells aren’t ringing in triumph—they’re tolling like a funeral dirge for a man whose soul now quakes before the throne of Almighty God. Pope Francis—Rome’s darling, the media’s mascot, the Church of Nice’s poster boy—is gone. And what...
It begins like all state-level poison does—with a bill number, an innocuous title, and a room full of politicians mugging for the cameras while pretending to care. Massachusetts House Bill 5033, draped in the glittering vestments of "healthcare reform," tiptoed its...
Colorado, ever the progressive petri dish of experimental governance, has once again declared its disdain for Christian convictions—this time by officially categorizing biblical parenting as a form of abuse. House Bill 25-1312, which I wrote about earlier this month,...
Amazingly, in the broad field of journalism and opining, there are people so self-satisfied, so enamored with their own perceived cleverness, that you can almost hear them sniggering while typing out their next piece. Andy Olsen's "Invasion Theology," published in...
There was a time—believe it or not—when television served some modest purpose beyond rotting the minds of its audience into room-temperature gelatin. There was a time when entertainment required talent. When it at least pretended to nod toward decency. When people...
In an age where most political leaders opt for soft-focus platitudes about “faith traditions” and “spiritual journeys,” the Trump White House just dropped a Holy Week statement that reads more like a Sunday sermon than a sanitized press release. And frankly, it's a...
There it is, in black and white. Thirteen ethnic fellowships within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) have officially declared what many of us have been saying all along. When it comes to our nation’s borders, they think enforcement is mean, deportation is cruel,...
Good riddance! There, I said it. NewSpring Church has officially joined the ranks of spiritual circus tents that have packed up and left the Southern Baptist Convention, and frankly, the SBC should be sending them a thank-you note, not a love letter. Cue the anguished...
It’s been said that if you want to see the theological temperature of the modern American church, you don’t go to the pulpit—you go to the fellowship hall, where a circle of women sit cradling pastel-covered workbooks with Beth Moore’s name stamped across the front...
Where better than in the streets of Harlem, New York City, could a scene unfold that so plainly illustrates the true face of the pro-abortion movement—a face contorted with rage, intolerance, and, ultimately, violence. Savannah Craven, a pro-life activist associated...
In the small town of Orangeburg, South Carolina, Pastor JP Sibley of New City Fellowship has carved out a platform for himself not as a diehard exegete of the Scriptures, but as a drooling mouthpiece for progressive social dogma. With a Bible in one hand and a DEI...
One of the most tyrannical pieces of legislation in American history isn’t coming from Washington, D.C. It isn’t being shoved down our throats by some bloated federal agency. No, the epicenter of this legislative grotesquerie is none other than Colorado, where the...
The latest findings from the Cultural Research Center’s American Worldview Inventory 2025 just dropped, and it’s a theological gut-punch to anyone who assumes that modern America still has even a passing acquaintance with biblical Christianity. Spoiler: it doesn’t....
It’s the darling phrase of modern Evangelicalism—trotted out with breathless solemnity every time someone dares to speak a hard truth too plainly: “We must speak the truth in love.” Four little words. A verse fragment. A harmless butterfly of a phrase that, somewhere...
I just read an “explainer” article by the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) published in the Christian Index, and to no one's surprise, it’s exactly what we’ve come to expect from the Southern Baptist Convention’s well-funded public relations...

They say politics doesn’t belong in the pulpit—that the Church must stay “above” the fray, aloof from the rough-and-tumble of the public square. But what they really mean is that the Bible is too sharp to touch their idols. It cuts too close. It exposes too much. The...
A woman in a Transformers shirt stands outside Smith College, screaming at a group of middle-aged women holding a banner that reads, “Women are adult human females.” She flails, rages, and hurls profanity like holy water against demons, as though declaring reality...
by Ed Dingess“Like a mighty army moves the Church of God. Brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod. We are not divided, all one body we—one in hope and doctrine, one in charity.” All right, welcome to my series on false religions. Over the next few...
If you needed more proof that Rome is just another pagan temple dressed in white robes, look no further than this spectacle. The so-called “vicar of Christ” stood before a block of ice, mumbling prayers to “creation,” while a chorus of voices chanted like acolytes in...
