Welcome to Part II of our ongoing series dissecting JD Greear's response to Megan Basham’s book, Shepherds for Sale. In Part I, we tackled Greear's contention regarding his infamous statement that the Bible "whispers" about sexual sin. We exposed how Greear, rather...
The left will always be the first to criticize the right for “mixing religion with politics,” yet, the left is far more guilty of this than we are. In fact, not only is the left guilty of this, but they use their religion as a tool to advance very un-Christian...
You're probably aware by now that the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC), during its annual meeting in June, voted to disfellowship several churches with women pastors, including Saddleback Church which was formerly pastored by Rick Warren. During the convention, the...
I don't normally write strictly on politics unless these politics have a direct impact on the church or religious matters I typically deal with. However, this is an exception, as today's decision by the Supreme Court is very important and affects us all. This is...
On June 14, 2023, the messengers to the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) overwhelmingly voted in favor of disfellowshipping Saddleback Church by an astonishing number. I assumed the vote would be close, yet 89 percent of the convention voted to hold member churches...
I've said it over and over: modern Christian music is just a stepping stone for musicians who are really interested in secular fame. They're using religion as a way to break into the music business. We have watched this happen in every sector, from the pop music of...
Rick Warren, well-known for his controversial approach, once led Saddleback Church. Now, Andy Wood, who's no less contentious, is in charge. Yet, they've stirred up a real hornet's nest within the Southern Baptist leadership. Why? Because they've dismissed the...
David French, the self-proclaimed "libertarian" and "conservative," finds himself in the limelight yet again, armed with his latest foray into redefining what it means to be conservative. His recent New York Times article launches yet another salacious assault on...
It's truly a marvel of modern thought, or lack thereof, this tendency to draw parallels between the most incongruous of characters, such as a career criminal who met his end in the midst of criminal activity, and Stephen, the first Christian martyr. It's as if the...
In an era of swirling cultural currents and shifting societal sands, the faithful are urged to stay vigilant. The temptation to forsake the timeless message of the gospel for fleeting trends is ever-present, and one such movement, laden with anti-gospel and...
"All who fashion idols are nothing, and the things they delight in do not profit. Their witnesses neither see nor know, that they may be put to shame. Who fashions a god or casts an idol that is profitable for nothing? Behold, all his companions shall be put to shame,...
Last November, a deranged man in Colorado Springs opened fire in an LGBTQ nightclub called Club Q killing five and injuring several others. "Anderson Aldrich is non-binary. They use they/them pronouns, and for the purposes of all formal filings, will be addressed as...
Lecrae, who is overtly woke and who has abandoned Christianity in favor of social justice and leftist political activism says that he hates the word "woke" because it's been co-opted by politics. Lecrae, who describes himself as a “rapper who happens to be Christian”...
In 2020, Michael Horton, a prominent theologian in Reformed-Evangelical circles and host of the podcast "White Horse Inn," denounced support for Donald Trump as "The Cult of Christian Trumpism" in an article for The Gospel Coalition. Horton's Systematic Theology on...
Caleb Lines is a "Reverend" at University Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the United Church of Christ. According to his own bio, he "has a passion for pursuing social justice for the marginalized, demonstrating the Good News of God’s radically inclusive...
When Black History Month liturgy goes terribly wrong, what you are about to hear in the video below is what you get. The death of George Floyd has undoubtedly left an indelible mark on society, fueling a cult-like movement that has taken on religious fervor. This...
Dr. Michael Waters is a speaker for the Jude 3 Project, an organization that is closely aligned with New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and who hosts an annual apologetics conference at the Southern Baptist seminary. We have covered the founder of Jude 3...
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...
Rev. Terry K. Anderson of Lilly Grove Missionary Baptist Church, one of the most affluent and largest megachurches in Houston, recently preached a sermon suggesting that black people leave their workplaces if they work for white people because all white people have a...
These people are so predictable that it isn't even funny. Last week, following the death of Tyre Nichols, a black man who was beaten by five black cops and ultimately died in the hospital from the trauma several days later, I predicted that the usual race-baiters...
It is an absolute disgrace that the true Church refuses to denounce, with a bold and unified voice, these charlatans that continue to defile the name of Christ by pushing sexual perversions, Communism, and abortion in the name of Christ. I can't help but believe that...
"What do you call a person who's in a fight and doesn't know it? The Loser." That was what Voddie Baucham said during a recent interview with Tom Ascol on the Founders podcast referring to the fight that the Church is in against the cultural invasion of sexual...
