In case you've missed it, there's a big kerfuffle going on over at Andy Stanley's Northpoint Ministries and its various massive campuses. Apparently, Andy Stanley is a lot more pro-LGBTQ than folks thought. For the last several weeks, he's been all over the headlines...
A controversial bill introduced by Oklahoma Republican state senator, Julie Daniels, seeks to repeal the total ban on abortion in the state. The bill, which is backed by the National Right to Life so-called "pro-life" organization, offers amendments to previously...
We've been covering the saga at Andy Stanley's Northpoint Ministries where it has come to light that Stanley is far more affirming of homosexuality than most people realized. Over the last few weeks, Stanley has been in the headlines over comments he made during a...
If you’re not familiar with the Acts 29 network, it is a coalition of churches that are bound together under the leadership of its president, Matt Chandler. According to its website, “Acts 29 is a diverse, global community of healthy, multiplying churches...

Last month, The Dissenter reported on the newly-proposed partnership between the Southern Baptist Convention’s North American Mission Board (NAMB) and a heretical “evangelism” ministry called He Gets Us. He Gets Us, as we demonstrated, is not only a gay-affirming...
In an unsurprising blow to traditional, conservative Christians, the Church of England's Synod passed a motion allowing same-sex couples to have a religious blessing ceremony in their local church. Despite the pleas of Bishop of London, Sarah Mullally, for unity, the...
Elevation Church is a powerhouse in the contemporary Christian music industry and rivals that of two of the most insidious faux Christian movements in the world—Hillsong and Bethel Church. The so-called "worship" music that comes out of Elevation is very popular and...
The growing threat of statism within the Church is a matter of immense concern in today's society. This dangerous political ideology holds the state as the supreme authority, promoting state-sponsored secularism that allows religious practices but forbids any...
We brought to you a while back a recent spectacle at the Center for Hope, a United Methodist church in Wintersville, Ohio, where a couple sang a trite and manipulative cover of “Eye of the Tiger,” is just one example of the degradation and degeneration that plagues...
Andy Wood has become a popular name in recent months in Evangelical circles as he was recently selected to replace Rick Warren as the lead pastor of one of the largest Southern Baptist churches in the nation, Saddleback Church. After Warren announced his retirement,...
Jesus told Christians to be set apart from the world. Yet, somehow in modern times, what passes as "Christianity" is virtually indistinguishable from the paganized culture and is often designed that way on purpose.As we've written about numerous times over the years,...
I don't think you have to be a complete iconoclast to know when depicting God crosses the line. God's commandments are clear—"you shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above" and "You shall not bow down to them."What...
I recently had an exchange with Jared Moore, a pastor and a graduate of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (SBTS), who has been exposing much of the bad theology within the Southern Baptist Convention over sexuality. Moore recently started a firestorm on Twitter...
Andy Stanley, a pastor widely discredited by orthodox, Bible-believing Christians as a false teacher, has ignited a raging controversy with his latest remarks on homosexuality and faith. Stanley's "seeker-sensitive" approach prioritizes attracting non-believers to...
