I'm going to stop short of making a determination on whether or not this guy was truly converted or not and the reason being is that I am not sure if he heard the gospel and truly believed it or not. That being said, this self-described atheist appears on stage at...

If you haven't heard of The New Evangelicals, it is an organization that claims to be a voice for the marginalized in the evangelical church, but its true motives and agenda are dubious. It purports to prioritize the voices of marginalized individuals, but in reality,...
"This is written notice to @bartbarber @keahbone @jnelson @toddbenkert: Quit contacting @abby_e_o & HK w/ the “we care for you” schtick," reads a post on Twitter by Robert G. Callahan, an attorney representing an alleged sex abuse victim against the Southern...
What often passes for revival in the modern church is typically nothing more than a charismatic caricature of revival that is driven by a hyper-emotional experiential-based movement that mimics what one would see at a drug-induced rave party or Woodstock music...
Yesterday, we published an article expressing our concerns over the hyper-emotionalism on display at the so-called Asbury Revival taking place at Asbury University, a multi-denominational ecumenical school that is loosely associated with the Wesleyan-Methodist...

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...
For those of us who were brought up within Evangelical and Protestant faith traditions, the expression "born again" has been deeply ingrained in our understanding and vocabulary. For us, the meaning of this phrase is straightforward: it refers to the moment when Jesus...
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...

I don’t want to write this but I must. And since everything seems to be racist, it will be considered racist by the racists. Informed, honest people know this truth—most leading civil rights leaders, black and white, are hypocrites. They use “civil rights”...
Tim Keller has long been heralded as one of the most profound thought leaders in Reformed Christianity. An author of several books and a popular speaker in the Evangelical speaking circuit, Keller has been silently creeping his way in under a facade of a defender of...
Societies have seen sexual revolutions repeatedly all throughout history. From the Scriptures, we see that it was a type of sexual revolution that caused God to destroy the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and in Romans 1, Paul speaks of the unbelieving nations as those...

If Christian leaders were faithful, publications like Christianity Today and The Gospel Coalition would cease to exist. At least, they would cease to identify as Christian publications. In a recent article, Christianity Today says that Jesus came to Earth to teach us...
Black Theology has not served the black community well. As a theology of liberation, it has, like all Marxian and neo-Marxian movements, produced the opposite of its intended ends. Black Theology, proferred as the theological energy behind the Black Power movement, a...
In addition to the reality, as I discussed in part two, that desegregated schools are as oppressive as segregated schools, there is something else one can pick up from Jeremiah Wright's description of learning styles. It makes sense that people with different learning...
I think it should be clear why I claimed, in the first part, that it will be a long time, if ever, before Blacks cease to see themselves as oppressed. Should a black man ever cease to see himself as oppressed, he will have apostatized from the faith, leaving the...
As we await the outcome of the Derek Chauvin trial, including the rioting if the jury gets it “wrong,” we are faced yet again with the question: Under what circumstances would anyone stipulate that the oppression of Blacks has come to an end? The short, and still most...
What God loves, those who mock him hate. This appears to be what Southern Baptist president, JD Greear is doing in a sermon he gave several years ago titled The Church Needs More Deborahs. In this sermon, he made the argument that despite what the Scriptures clearly...
It has long been held by civilized societies that punishments for crimes must fit the crime. The United States, despite idiotic arguments in opposition, was founded upon Christian biblical principles. Among those principles was the idea that those charged with a crime...

In what is seen as a victory for some but a compromise to others, South Carolina has passed a complete ban on abortions with the exception of rape or incest. House Bill 5399, which is summarized as "Prohibition of Abortion," will make it a felony "for anyone who...
While most sane parents want to protect their children from predators, others who have gone completely insane instead will hand them over and feed them directly into the mouths of sick and evil people. That's what happened at the Anderson Distillery & Grill in...
What mankind has learned from history is that we don’t learn much from history. Every generation seems to think they are living in the most unusual time. Those who believe things are getting worse and violence is accelerating are correct. Genesis 6:11-13 reveals, “The...
This should make pro-abortion Evangelical leftists like Dwight McKissic happy. Joe Biden has promised to ban assault weapons, codify Roe v. Wade, and take care of "unfinished business" if his party keeps control of Congress after the midterm elections. Of course, this...
