The Buice and Themelios Scandals Compared

The Buice and Themelios Scandals Compared

by John B. Carpenter Josh Buice’s elders at Pray’s Mill Baptist Church must have faced a mighty temptation. The popularity of their G3 conference and the prominence of their church seemed to rely, to some extent, on Pastor Buice, yet they had caught him in...

Planned Parenthood Shouldn’t Be Defunded, but the ERLC Should Be

Planned Parenthood Shouldn’t Be Defunded, but the ERLC Should Be

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...

Your Internalized Homophobia Is Conviction of Sin

Your Internalized Homophobia Is Conviction of Sin

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...

Surrogacy is The Childless Gospel of the Left

Surrogacy is The Childless Gospel of the Left

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...

David French, Russell Moore, and the Politics of Selective Compassion

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...

Defying Rome: Wear Orange on St. Patrick’s Day

Defying Rome: Wear Orange on St. Patrick’s Day

Every year, as March 17th rolls around, we're smothered beneath an avalanche of green—green beer, green shamrocks, green everything—as if someone accidentally detonated a giant Leprechaun-themed confetti bomb. Amid this nauseating sea of verdant monotony, a dissenting...

Trans Dude Pulls Gun on Street Preacher for Saying God Made Two Genders

Trans Dude Pulls Gun on Street Preacher for Saying God Made Two Genders

Another day, another instance of radical leftist violence being swept under the rug by the mainstream media. In San Francisco, a street preacher proclaiming the biblical truth that God made men to be men and women to be women was met not with debate or discussion—but...

Reasons Why You Should Not Observe Lent

Reasons Why You Should Not Observe Lent

Every year, like clockwork, Ash Wednesday rolls around and kicks off the Roman Catholic tradition of Lent—a six-week-long spectacle of public piety where everyone puts on their best "mourning over sin" performance. And, of course, it’s not just the Catholics anymore....
