Caleb Lines, the lead heretic-in-residence at University Christian Church in San Diego—a so-called “progressive” congregation affiliated with the Disciples of Christ (which long ago abandoned anything resembling orthodoxy)—is back at it again. Known for his flair for...
While I personally prefer being in the sticks, American cities once stood as glimmering monuments to Western civilization—engines of industry, temples of innovation, and the backdrop of families building dreams. Los Angeles was one of them. Once. Before it was...
That’s Rev. Dr. Caleb Lines, a full-time rainbow cleric and part-time cosplay theologian currently pastoring University Christian Church in San Diego. He’s also the Co-Executive Director of ProgressiveChristianity.org, which is basically a digital “safe space” for...
The Southern Baptist Convention has finally taken aim at one of the most overlooked, under-preached evils in the modern church… chemical abortion. For years, many professing Christians have quietly participated in this silent slaughter, regularly using birth control...
So how did we go from talking tomatoes with Bible verses and lessons on “doing unto others as you would have them do unto you” to full on queer theory, pronouns, and a gender identity crisis? Phil Vischer, who is best known for creating the...
Once upon a time, Sesame Street was the gentle hum of a sunny day, where Big Bird helped kids spell “apple” and Oscar’s biggest sin was being grouchy. But somewhere between Bert and Ernie’s friendship bracelets and Michelle Obama’s kale evangelism, the street corner...
In a recent webinar podcast geared toward making the argument that same sex attraction is not sinful, Preston Sprinkle and Gregory Coles suggest that Jesus Himself may have experienced sexual attraction. Coles states, “It does seem like it sort of cheapens the passage...
It’s not even June yet, and you can already feel it—the collective eye-roll of a weary nation bracing for another thirty-day parade of moral confusion, sexual exhibitionism, and corporate hostage videos. The rainbow flags are being ironed, the slogans reheated, the...
Have you ever heard of Camp IdRaHaJe? I haven’t either, until recently, and I know nothing about it, its theology, or its affiliations. But what’s going on at this little-known Christian camp is much bigger than the camp itself. Nestled in the pine-strewn hills of...
In a recent conversation with Lecrae, Francis Chan reached deep into the recesses of his self-awareness and pulled out something so bizarre, so stupefying, that even seasoned watchers of his descent into doctrinal oblivion had to pause and rewind. With a wistful,...
June is almost here, which means the corporate spasm of rainbow flag-waving is about to commence with all the subtlety of a Vegas drag show crashing a funeral. Pride Month, the holiest month in the calendar of Ba’al worship, is not content with simply your tolerance...
In a recent episode of his podcast, Ask N.T. Wright Anything, Wright was asked by a self-described trans-identified woman—who now lives as a man and has undergone surgeries including a hysterectomy—whether her current lifestyle is sinful, and how the Bible might...
The pastrix of Downey Avenue Christian Church—a church and a denomination that is anything but Christian—compares the explicit novel, The Color Purple, to Scripture, calling it “holy and inspired.” Not metaphorically. Not emotionally. No, she literally calls it a...
Have you ever opened a sack of flour that’s been sitting just a little too long in a damp basement? At first, it looks okay—sealed up, stacked neatly, part of the pantry. But peel it open, and the putrid smell is suddenly overwhelming. It’s filled with fat, white...
At The Dissenter, we are committed to proclaiming the truth of God’s Word while dragging into the light the wolves who twist it to serve the devil’s agenda. Over the years, we’ve exposed a long procession of frauds—charlatans, grifters, heretics, and smooth-talking...
It’s not every day that a high-profile Southern Baptist pastor calls out the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) for being little more than a sanctimonious public relations firm. But that’s precisely what happened when Willy Rice, pastor of Calvary Baptist...
Delman Coates, the senior pastor of Mt. Ennon Baptist Church, recently delivered a sermon that could only be described as theological arson. Coates didn't just bend the truth—he violently assaulted it, dragged it into a dark alley, and left it bleeding. He essentially...
If our church members fall into the habit of frequenting the theatre, we shall soon have them going much further in the direction of vice, and they will lose all relish for the ways of God. If theatre-going became general among professing Christians, it would be the...
The 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals has just delivered a swift kick to religious liberty while waving the rainbow flag of so-called inclusion. In what world is it acceptable for a small Christian school to be dragged through the legal mud for daring to uphold a basic...
Picture this, a quaint Mennonite church, where one might expect sermons on humility, simplicity, and the steadfastness of God. Instead, we’re treated to a peculiar display—a ladypastrix, adorned with a rainbow bracelet, sitting cross-legged in front of a group of...
If there was ever a guy who sold his soul for money and fortune, it’s Jesse Duplantis. This clown is a walking, talking, prosperity-gospel charlatan of the highest order, and every time he opens his mouth, some new heresy rolls out. In one of his latest sermon clip is...
Dear Effeminate Pastor, You stand on a stage, not a pulpit. Beneath theatrical lights, not the burning fire of truth. Draped in pastel rebellion and accessorized like a department store mannequin on discount, you glide across the platform like a self-help seminar host...

The title says it, but let’s talk about what that actually means. The Church is called to take care of the poor, the oppressed, and the marginalized—the least of these. But not the way progressive "Christians" would have you think. No, the modern leftist Evangelical,...
Some Catholics call him “Papa,” and others call him the “holy father.” Yet, despite these terms of endearment for a man who sets himself up in the place of Christ, The Roman pope, who goes by Francis, continues the Catholic tradition of leading people down a path of...
A Christian university named after arguably the most famous Protestant reformer in the Reformed Tradition, John Calvin, has become an icon for liberalism. Calvin University, formerly Calvin College, is located in Grand Rapids, Michigan and is associated with the...

On March 27, 2023, a mass shooting occurred at The Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, which resulted in multiple fatalities. The attack was carried out by a transgender leftist, Audrey Hale, who had written a “manifesto” that had previously been withheld due to...

Earlier this week, Greg Locke’s home was sprayed with bullets—an act of violence that could have claimed the lives of Locke’s children, demonstrating just how spiritually lost some people have become. The fact that anyone would place children in harm’s way over...
In a remarkable story of faith and perseverance, Arizona street preacher Hans Schmidt has defied all odds after being shot in the head while preaching the gospel on the streets of Glendale in November 2023. Schmidt, a 26-year-old veteran and father of two, was...

The tightrope we conservatives are forced to walk these days is starting to feel more like a razor's edge—painful, precarious, and sometimes downright unbearable. On the one hand, we have a GOP that can't seem to muster the backbone to stand firm on one of the most...
If you've followed The Dissenter for any amount of time, you may remember in 2019 when I wrote that the fire at the Notre Dame Cathedral was not the tragic loss that many claimed it to be. Instead, I argued that it was a fitting symbol of the Roman Catholic Church's...
If you don’t think the world has gone mad, just look at Ireland and view the clip at the bottom of this article. Ireland is only a few years ahead of the rest of the Western world, but mark my words, it won’t be long. In a stunning display of state-sanctioned...
If you’ve never heard of her, self-proclaimed “Prophetess” Katie Souza is the ringleader of her own spiritual sideshow, where she’s carved out a niche in the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR). The NAR is a movement that has nothing to do with the gospel and is more...
Meet Keith McQueen, a self-styled "bishop" who seems to think that his platform at Powerhouse Church is a stage for profound biblical illiteracy rather than for the preaching of the truth and the exhortation of obeying God’s word. If there were a trophy for most...
David French—a delusional sycophant clinging desperately to the progressive wing of the evangelical world—has once again shown his true colors. French, who has made a career out of pandering to the left while masquerading as a conservative, has now found a new low....
Every year, Brett McCracken releases his annual "best and favorite films" of the year list. And every year, normal people are horrified at what we could only see as Satan’s shortlist of things people should never see. Sometimes, I feel like TGC puts out material...
In vitro fertilization (IVF) has been hailed by some as a “miracle of modern medicine,” a lifeline for couples struggling with infertility. Yet, beneath the surface of this seemingly benevolent technology lies a darker reality—one that betrays a biblical worldview and...
Welcome to the era of “gender seasonality,” where common sense, science, and basic biology are tossed out the window in favor of a new dogma, one that insists you can change your gender as easily as you change your shoes.For the uninitiated, "gender seasonality," the...
Andy Stanley’s disdain for the Holy Scriptures is a well-established fact, and it is nothing new that he has been vocal in his condemnation of the inerrancy and authority of the Word of God.Andy Stanley says "theological diversity" is his church's strength because it...
In the current cultural and religious climate where the line between biblical truth and personal convenience increasingly blurs, the announcement by the Truth Pregnancy Resource Center in Dallas is a reminder of just how far some people will go to justify sin—even...

I honestly don't know if this woman suffers from delusions of grandeur, if she's schizophrenic, or if she's just doing all of this to get a rise out of people. But to watch this woman speak, and see the reaction of those who interview her act like they believe what...
The Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission's (ERLC) Brent Leatherwood's journey to the center of Southern Baptist policymaking reads not so much as a pilgrimage of faith but rather a trek through the thickets of political activism, where the compass often points left...

As the world rages against Christianity from all sides, from the far-left American progressivism to even the ostensibly "Christian" centrists like David French, the movement for some within Christendom to embrace what is being labeled "Christian Nationalism" is...
These Republican MAGA politicians are becoming harder and harder to defend as the "lesser of evils" when it comes to moral issues. Recently, Trump himself came out as pro-choice on abortion, stating that despite the fact that he played a role in seeing that Roe v....
In a nation that once heralded the principles of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, a shadow has fallen, casting a long and dark silhouette over the moral landscape. At the heart of this darkness lies the tragedy of systematic child-murder, a scourge that...
The Bible speaks much to the truth that God's judgment on nations manifests in many ways, especially in rampant sexual immorality. In fact, Romans 1 teaches that sexual immorality is one of the only sins by which the sin itself is the judgment, a sobering reality that...
The Episcopal Church is an apostate denomination. In August 2022, they passed a resolution affirming sex change surgeries for children of any age. Because apparently mutilating children’s bodies to fit a certain ideology is a top priority for this “Christian”...
In 2018, former U.S. Vice President, Mike Pence, who is a Southern Baptist himself, was invited to speak at the Southern Baptist Convention's annual meeting. While at the time, Pence was largely viewed as a conservative politician who supported conservative policies,...

In Part I, we laid bare the ancient roots of this godless upheaval, tracing its path from the ashes of Sodom to the contraceptive-fueled fornication that birthed a culture of death and deviance. In Part II, we exposed the acceleration into transgender madness, where...
Loving Our Neighbor Means Expelling the Lawless I have watched the streets of Charlotte these past days, and I cannot be silent. I’ve lived here my entire life, and I’ve watched as large parts of this beautiful city has deteriorated over the years into third-world...
Sean Feucht—Bethel Church’s curly-blond troubadour of spectacle—took to X on November 11, shouting in all caps about a “MOVE OF GOD” at Mar-a-Lago. He claimed “over 100 veterans and law enforcement gave their lives to Jesus” in Trump’s ballroom, complete with...
Tucker Carlson—the silver-tongued sage of cable news turned podcaster—can eviscerate a politician’s hypocrisy with a single raised eyebrow. We’ve cheered his political broadsides, nodded through his takedowns of woke absurdities, and admired his knack for exposing...
The petition to the Supreme Court was simple in intent, if not in expectation. It was to hear a case that could open the door to revisiting Obergefell v. Hodges, the 2015 decision that invented a constitutional right to “same-sex marriage.” Kim Davis, the Kentucky...
I watched Oklahoma State Senator Dusty Deevers’ recorded address yesterday and felt the hardness of his tone—raw, unstinting, unwilling to glide over the usual conciliatory rhetoric. Here was a pastor-legislator pointing directly at the deceitful heart of the American...

Karl Marx was not just some economist scribbling theories in obscurity who happened to have a stroke of luck in becoming a household name—he was the architect of a worldview that treats envy as virtue, revolution as redemption, and the State as god. What began in the...
Let them go. Really, let them. If your spiritual appetite can be satisfied by the incense-choked pageantry of Rome—by genuflecting before a golden cage of transubstantiated flour—then it was never Christ that you hungered for to begin with. If you're willing to trade...
At The Gospel Coalition’s recent conference—an event already bursting with enough theological cotton candy to induce a diabetic coma—David Platt took the stage and, with trembling sincerity, unleashed a tale so drenched in mystical melodrama it could have been...
Somewhere between the Jedi Council and the United Church of Christ, a black hole has opened, sucking sound doctrine into a swirling void of cosplay theology, syncretistic gobbledygook, and racialized virtue signals wrapped in rice paper. It is here, at the unholy...
In a Nebraska courtroom, justice was finally dispensed—but not in the way most would assume. Chloe Coplen-Anderson, now 18, was sentenced to 35 to 60 years in prison after being convicted of slitting her newborn son’s throat shortly after giving birth in her bedroom....
At long last, the velvet-tongued emperor of Christian celebrity culture, Bishop T.D. Jakes, has announced his exit from the pulpit of The Potter’s House—the crumbling empire he built atop the rotting carcass of the Word of Faith movement and anti-Trinitarian heresy....
In Houston, Texas, a storm has been brewing beneath the gleaming surface of one of America’s largest megachurches—Second Baptist Church. With more than 90,000 members scattered across multiple campuses and an empire reportedly worth over a billion dollars, Second...
Levi Lusko has built a reputation as the quintessential hip, modern megachurch pastor—tattoos, trendy sneakers, polished storytelling, and a high-production platform that attracts the crowds and flatters the culture. But beneath the fashionable exterior and charming...
A YouTube channel calling itself “JOHN MACARTHUR WORLD” is currently drawing hundreds of thousands of views by producing and promoting videos that are not only misleading, but outright deceptive. These videos are presented as if they contain teachings from Pastor John...
He walks onto the stage with a flawless smile and a perfectly-timed pause. The lights dim, the audience leans in, and for thirty minutes, the man speaks with the cadence of a TED Talker and the certainty of a Silicon Valley mogul pitching salvation like a subscription...
When the news broke that Pope Francis had died, Christianity Today responded in the only way it knows how: with an incense-scented eulogy that doubled as a love letter to ecumenical confusion. The article, penned by Franco Iacomini, bore the...
Somewhere between the archeological dust of Jerusalem and the theological smog of Gordon College, a man named Jeffrey P. Arroyo Garcia stumbled onto a theory so feeble, it could barely support the weight of a soggy Sunday school flannelgraph, let alone the entire...
The pontiff is dead. And no, the bells aren’t ringing in triumph—they’re tolling like a funeral dirge for a man whose soul now quakes before the throne of Almighty God. Pope Francis—Rome’s darling, the media’s mascot, the Church of Nice’s poster boy—is gone. And what...
It begins like all state-level poison does—with a bill number, an innocuous title, and a room full of politicians mugging for the cameras while pretending to care. Massachusetts House Bill 5033, draped in the glittering vestments of "healthcare reform," tiptoed its...
Colorado, ever the progressive petri dish of experimental governance, has once again declared its disdain for Christian convictions—this time by officially categorizing biblical parenting as a form of abuse. House Bill 25-1312, which I wrote about earlier this month,...
Amazingly, in the broad field of journalism and opining, there are people so self-satisfied, so enamored with their own perceived cleverness, that you can almost hear them sniggering while typing out their next piece. Andy Olsen's "Invasion Theology," published in...
There was a time—believe it or not—when television served some modest purpose beyond rotting the minds of its audience into room-temperature gelatin. There was a time when entertainment required talent. When it at least pretended to nod toward decency. When people...
In an age where most political leaders opt for soft-focus platitudes about “faith traditions” and “spiritual journeys,” the Trump White House just dropped a Holy Week statement that reads more like a Sunday sermon than a sanitized press release. And frankly, it's a...
There it is, in black and white. Thirteen ethnic fellowships within the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) have officially declared what many of us have been saying all along. When it comes to our nation’s borders, they think enforcement is mean, deportation is cruel,...
Good riddance! There, I said it. NewSpring Church has officially joined the ranks of spiritual circus tents that have packed up and left the Southern Baptist Convention, and frankly, the SBC should be sending them a thank-you note, not a love letter. Cue the anguished...
It’s been said that if you want to see the theological temperature of the modern American church, you don’t go to the pulpit—you go to the fellowship hall, where a circle of women sit cradling pastel-covered workbooks with Beth Moore’s name stamped across the front...
Where better than in the streets of Harlem, New York City, could a scene unfold that so plainly illustrates the true face of the pro-abortion movement—a face contorted with rage, intolerance, and, ultimately, violence. Savannah Craven, a pro-life activist associated...
In the small town of Orangeburg, South Carolina, Pastor JP Sibley of New City Fellowship has carved out a platform for himself not as a diehard exegete of the Scriptures, but as a drooling mouthpiece for progressive social dogma. With a Bible in one hand and a DEI...
