In my previous exposition, Ten Reasons Why a Christian Should Never Attend a Homosexual "Wedding," I cataloged a series of arguments, painting a picture of how such events are an abomination in the eyes of God. The list, although somewhat extensive, only skimmed the...
In today's Evangelical landscape, a seismic shift is unfolding, notably influenced by movements like Revoice and Living Out that have influenced Evangelical churches and advocate for a more inclusive approach within the church toward aberrant sexualities. Revoice,...
Last week, The Dissenter reported that Alistair Begg, a prominent pastor associated with The Gospel Coalition, urged Christians to not only attend homosexual weddings, but to also buy them a gift—a position that starkly contradicts the biblical view of marriage as a...
In an age where the church grapples with political divides, a new curriculum titled "The After Party" emerges, aiming to bridge gaps within Christian communities. Developed by Curtis Chang, founder of Redeeming Babel, along with David French, a New York Times...
In an era where the sanctity of one's home is increasingly challenged by rising crime rates and shifting social attitudes, the Castle Doctrine emerges as a crucial legal and moral safeguard. This doctrine, established in several states, guarantees the right of...
In Oklahoma, a new legislative voice has emerged with the election of Dusty Deevers to the Oklahoma State Senate—a voice that carries the convictions of faith into the chambers of public policy. Dusty Deevers, known for his tenacious commitment to biblical principles...
In this age where an invasion of social justice ideology has overwhelmed theological precision in Evanglelical circles, The Gospel Coalition (TGC) is front and center waving the multi-shaded flag of wokeness. It's clear that TGC's foolish embrace and promulgation of a...
Perusing social media this morning, I ran across the following tweet by Gavin Ortlund. Squishy doctrine and false teaching seem to be universal (no pun intended) within the entire pedigree of Ortlund men. His father, Ray Ortlund, is a staunch supporter of Beth Moore...
“Now therefore fear the Lord and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness. Put away the gods that your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve,...

Post-flood, the world lay in ruins, a stark consequence of man's rampant sinfulness. It was then that God unfurled the rainbow across the heavens, not merely as a spectral phenomenon but as a covenant of monumental significance (Genesis 9:13-17). It was a divine...
