At a highly popular New Zealand megachurch, Grace Vineyard Church, Easter Sunday isn’t about the resurrection of Christ. It’s about choreography, costume robes, and turning the King of kings into a glorified boy band frontman. In a recent stunt, they performed a...
He was the last of a dying breed—a pastor who not only knew what he believed, but believed what he knew. John Fullerton MacArthur Jr., born in 1939, didn’t just walk into history; he stormed in like a theological tempest. While most pastors today tiptoe through the...
If you think TPUSA is the guardian of conservative values, think again. Led by Charlie Kirk, this organization is nothing short of a Trojan horse in the conservative movement. While it claims to champion conservatism, it's busy platforming and promoting ideologies...
Today is Reformation Day, a commemoration of that fateful epoch over 500 years ago when the very soul of Christendom was at stake. Europe, and the rest of the world, dominated by the Roman Catholic Church, was ensnared in a spiritual tempest, its people gripped by a...
Justin Timberlake has been slammed by fans after revelations that he put pressure on his then girlfriend, Britney Spears, to have an abortion and then went on to publicily campaign for “the right to choose”. In her memoir, The Woman in Me, Spears revealed that...
In 2021, The Dissenter reported that Grace Semler Baldridge–who goes by the stage name, Semler–had topped Lauren Daigle for the number one spot on the Christian music charts on iTunes. Baldridge was also nominated by GLAAD for the 2020 Award for...
A few weeks ago, we reported that Contemporary Christian Worship celebrity and lead guitarist in the "Christian" band, Caedmon's Call, Derek Webb, who defected from the faith a few years ago and came out in full support of sodomy, decided to gather with two other...
Barcelona, how you've outdone yourself! In a display of unparalleled originality, an artist has taken it upon themselves to blasphemously depict the paragon of fast-food commercialism, Ronald McDonald on a crucifix in the city’s Museum of Forbidden Art. And what...
The antics of Florida Southern Baptist megachurch, Church by the Glades, have reached a level of circus-like absurdity that calls into question the very essence of a religious sanctuary. Led by David Hughes, this circus has become more synonymous with grandiose...
Mike Bickle, founder and CEO of the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOPKC) has been accused of serious allegations of clergy sexual abuse spanning several decades. Bickle, a prominent figure in the charismatic movement, is known for his role in the...
The Church of England stands at the precipice of a theological abyss as it contemplates blessing same-sex unions, a stark deviation from the biblical truth it once held sacrosanct. A controversial document "Living in Love and Faith" is set to be debated in the...
Earlier today, I wrote an article expressing "cautious optimism" on the election of the new Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. Johnson, a Southern Baptist, is being heralded by many conservatives as "the most conservative" speaker in U.S. History. Upon...
The election of Representative Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House is a remarkably surprising turn of events considering the tumultuous political scenario. On October 25, 2023, the House elected Johnson in a 220 to 209 vote, a conservative Southern Baptist, filling a...
In the realm of charismatic Christian ministry, Shawn Bolz is a name that often comes adorned with an aura of divine insight. He claims a direct line to God and a prophetic vision that unveils the formerly unrevealed. His proclaimed ability to peer into the mysteries...
In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve committed a glaring offense against their Maker. Yet, in a twist of irony, they sought to hide from His all-seeing gaze by using the very elements of the world He so generously gifted them with. Since then, not much has changed. So,...
The Unitarian Universalist Congregations (UUC) is the epitome of religious vagueness. A place where any belief is welcome, except, of course, the notion that absolute truth exists and that it can only be found in the one, true God's revelation to us. They'll claim...
In the Show-Me State of Missouri, a place known for its straight-shooting politics and no-nonsense approach, Republican Senator Mike Moon has been pushing the envelope—way beyond what many so-called "pro-life" organizations are willing to do. Back in May, Moon...
Oh yes, the Asbury Revival of 2023—remember that? Just a few months ago, it was the talk of the town—at least, it was the talk of "Christian Twitter." If you scrolled through social media, you'd think the next Great Awakening was happening at Asbury University in...
On Thursday, October 26, William Keith Speer—a murderer-turned-minister on death row—is scheduled to be executed by the state of Texas, unless granted clemency. His time on death row has been marked by a contentious blend of crime and claimed redemption—a...
In an era where the rhetoric of "freedom" and "democracy" is bandied about like a political football, the ground realities often tell a different story. What does freedom look like in Ukraine, for example—a country that the Biden administration and current Congress...
In a recent revelation that showcases the ideological shift within the Roman Catholic Church, a Lexington, KY Catholic priest, Stan JR Zerkowski of St. Paul Catholic Church, came forward with a handwritten note he claims to have received directly from Pope Francis....
It's hard to think of an institution that has sold out its foundational principles more brazenly than the Dove Awards. What began as an earnest celebration of Christian and Gospel music has morphed into an extravagant pageant of secular values, donning a Christian...
