The Presbyterian Church (PCUSA) has officially completed its transformation from a nominally Christian denomination into yet another rubber-stamping committee for the moral revolution. With its latest amendment, enshrining LGBTQIAP+ identities into its Constitution,...
They arrive in droves, packed in by the thousands, many having traveled under conditions so wretched they barely survived the journey. They were promised a better life, a new future, a land where they could finally be free. Instead, they are greeted with exploitation,...
Wheaton College’s slow-motion descent into theological surrender is a tragedy, but not a surprising one. For years, the once-proud evangelical institution has been prostituting its doctrinal backbone for a seat at the table of cultural relevance. And what do they have...
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...
The state of Washington has just won a major legal battle forcing churches to subsidize the slaughter of unborn children. That’s not hyperbole—that’s exactly what happened. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against Cedar Park Assembly of God, a church in...
Over the last couple of years, Kat Von D’s so-called "conversion" has been making waves, but let’s not get carried away in the tide of celebrity spectacle. Once the queen of the occult tattoo subculture, she now parades her newfound "Christianity" like a Hollywood...
A group of progressive clergy and rainbow-splattered religious activists have hijacked the already unbiblical celebration of “Lent” to push a blatantly leftist political agenda, a thinly veiled leftist activist manifesto framed as a "return to Jesus." The document,...
I’ve been watching a story unfold that should be front-page news worldwide but has instead been met with a deafening silence. In Syria's coastal region, over 1,000 people, including hundreds of Christians, were brutally massacred in just 48 hours by Al Qaeda-linked...
The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC), the Southern Baptist Convention’s long-decayed organ of political engagement, has spent the last decade or more morphing itself into a fetid hotbed of the woke mind virus defending progressive ideology. This...
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....
If there was ever a night that confirmed the Democrat Party and its allies have been handed over to a debased mind, last night’s State of the Union Address was it. The theater of malevolence was in full swing, an outright spectacle of loathing and rebellion against...
History has never suffered a shortage of theologians who chose comfort over confrontation, accommodation over courage. In the courts of corrupt kings and the halls of dead and decaying empires, there were always those willing to drape cowardice in the language of...
There’s an old saying about foxes guarding henhouses. It turns out the Presbytery of Western North Carolina has taken that metaphor and cranked it up to eleven, not just letting the foxes guard the chickens, but setting up a cozy little Airbnb for them right inside...
Once upon a time, Southern Baptists knew what a pastor was. Not that it was ever complicated. The Bible, clear as a bell, lays it out—a pastor is a man, called by God, qualified by Scripture, and entrusted with the shepherding of the flock. And for a while, the SBC...
You may remember Jamal Bryant, a master manipulator who cloaks his racial demagoguery in the theatrics of a charismatic preacher. I’ve written about him before. From comparing Kamala Harris to Esther to proposing marijuana farms on church property, Bryant has never...
JT Inglish, lead pastor of Storyline Church in Arvada, Colorado, has been appointed to serve on the SBC’s Committee on Committees for the 2025 annual meeting. This influential position helps shape the future leadership of the denomination, making it all the more...
The lights dim. A soft purple haze spreads across the stage, a carefully manufactured mist rising from hidden fog machines like some mystical veil between heaven and earth. The lead singer, a guy with the vocal timbre of a teenage boy penning poetry in his journal,...
Paula White is trash. There, I said it. She's a false teacher, a peddler of snake oil, a carnival barker draped in pseudo-Christian robes, hawking a gospel of greed with all the theological depth of a used car salesman promising that a lemon will last forever. She is...
If we’ve seen nothing in the last decade or so, we’ve seen a massive influx of cultural decline and gender confusion. In the midst of this, soon-to-be Vice President JD Vance strides onto the battlefield like a general rallying his troops. Speaking at CPAC, he didn’t...
Wheaton College, a school that was once known for its firm stance on biblical orthodoxy, now serves as an all-you-can-eat buffet for theological drift. The latest spectacle? David Bennett, a Revoice speaker, prancing onto the stage in an exaggerated, overtly feminine...
Jessica Bates was a mother of five, a woman who knew what it meant to love, to sacrifice, to open her home to those in need. She wasn’t asking for much—just the chance to take in a child from Oregon’s foster care system, a system that, incidentally, never seems to...
Mike Todd has been off the radar for a while, but every now and then, he rears his head, begging for a response to something so cringeworthy—and blasphemous—that it demands attention. You may remember Mike Todd from that time he turned tithing into a million-dollar...
There was a time when mocking God was a dangerous business. There was a time when scorning His people carried a cost. And there was a time when conservative Christians in America weren’t the preferred punching bags of Hollywood’s sneering elites. But that time is long...
Rick Warren stepped in it, and now he’s scrambling to clean up the mess. A few days ago, he tweeted out a mind-numbingly shallow take, twisting John 19:18 into a ham-fisted political metaphor, suggesting that the "real Jesus," because he was crucified between two...

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...
Imagine dropping your child off in this man's classroom, and there's nothing you could say or do about it. Imagine walking into a supposedly professional environment and seeing a man dressed in women's clothing and knowing this delusional weirdo is the person...
Ryan Kwon, a board member of The Gospel Coalition and pastor of Resonate Movement Church, is yet another voice in the long parade of woke ideologues masquerading as shepherds who distort the Scriptures to advance their communism-lite agenda—always under the thin guise...
Hermanio Joseph, the illegal Haitian national who killed 11-year-old Aiden Clark after hitting a school bus while driving illegally, had entered the U.S. at the southern border in 2022 under the Biden administration’s policies.Joseph, who was released into the country...
Russell Moore, David French, and Curtis Chang—three names that have wormed their way into Christian discourse under the guise of unity and healing, but whose agenda reeks of progressive subversion. Their new project, “The After Party,” pretends to offer "biblical...
Today’s the day, folks! Preston Sprinkle, the theologian extraordinaire of the pro-LGBTQ leftist evangelical machine, founder of the Center for Faith, Sexuality, and Gender, and one of the original board members of Revoice, is back with his latest attempt to...
Stefani McDade, a cronie of Russell Moore—both of whom seem to have taken up residence as thought-leaders in leftist Christianity—has been named the “theology editor” at Christianity Today. Yes, that Christianity Today—once a respectable outlet for serious Christians...
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...
Stephen “Steph” Curry was once the golden boy of college basketball, captivating fans with his electric play at Davidson College and propelling the team into a Cinderella run during the NCAA tournament. As the son of former NBA Charlotte Hornets player Dell Curry, he...
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...
In a disturbing act of violence, the home of controversial Tennessee pastor Greg Locke was riddled with bullets on the night of September 3, 2024. Approximately 30-40 rounds were fired into Locke’s Mt. Juliet residence, which he shares with his family, including young...
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...
There has been a major shift in the LGBTQ movement and quite a number of them in recent years have turned toward supporting Republican politicians —particularly, Donald Trump. While Democrats still hold a near-monopoly on sexual aberrancy, Trump himself has garnered...
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...
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 who had written a "manifesto" which has currently been withheld due to public records...
If you haven't yet seen the news, in the Westfield Bondi Junction shopping center in Sydney, Australia yesterday, a chilling scene unfolded that left a nation in mourning and the world in shock—or maybe it didn't. A lone assailant, later identified as 40-year-old Joel...
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,...
Crayola has now unleashed upon the world a set of crayons so dripping with self-importance it practically begs to be mocked. It’s basically a cultural manifesto in wax form..a new children’s catechism into the church of diversity, complete with its hollow liturgy of...
The Hollywood Bowl has never been shy about mocking God, but this summer it outdid itself. Jesus Christ Superstar was dragged back onto the stage, only this time the crown was handed to Cynthia Erivo, a black lesbian actress who strutted as “Jesus,” while Adam Lambert...
After 169 years, Spurgeon’s College has shut its doors. The official reason given is financial strain, but let’s not act like we didn’t know this was coming. This wasn’t a spreadsheet accident. It was a self-inflicted wound, an institutional suicide stunt. And Rick...
Good riddance. That’s the only fitting response to the news that Brent Leatherwood has finally resigned from his post as president of the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. For years, Southern Baptists have been told to treat this bloated appendage of the...
Pastor Luke Ash lost his job at a public library in Louisiana for refusing to play pretend. That’s the story in its simplest, clearest form. He wouldn’t call a woman a man. He wouldn’t lie. And for that unpardonable sin against the Church of Woke Inclusivity, he was...
At this year’s Belfast Pride parade, a clown dressed as “Jesus”—mock crown of thorns and all—danced through the streets, high-fiving other sodomites while the crowd applauded. This is a clear act of deliberate blasphemy against God, yet, nobody batted an eye. Because...
The pictures of that child—they are almost too much to stomach. The poor kid is wide-eyed, bewildered, and smothered in counterfeit affection. These are not accidents of fate, they are the fruit of a poisoned tree. And the name of that tree is Obergefell v. Hodges....
The connections between Mormonism and Freemasonry are about as subtle as a neon sign in a pitch-black desert. Some people act like it’s some deep, conspiratorial discovery that Joseph Smith, the so-called “prophet,” borrowed heavily from the secret handshakes and...
In a scene that could easily double as a sketch from a late-night comedy show, a white pastor in a church-branded t-shirt strolls the sidewalks of Albany, posing, smiling wide, and handing out brand new Nikes to black kids like some corporate-funded Saint Nick. Not...
It takes a certain kind of brainpower to stumble headfirst into heresy while thinking you’ve just unlocked the deepest philosophical vault in heaven. But that’s exactly what William Lane Craig does with his recent theological gymnastics. Craig is so smart, he’s...
The image says it all. Wembley Way—that grand corridor of British pride leading up to the iconic Wembley Stadium—now draped not in the Union Jack, not in team colors, not even in neutral, celebratory decoration. No, the entire promenade has been lined, lockstep and in...
At a highly popular New Zealand megachurch, Grace Vineyard Church, Easter Sunday isn’t about the resurrection of Christ. It’s about choreography, costume robes, and turning the King of kings into a glorified boy band frontman. In a recent stunt, they performed a...

The Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC) is, at this point, nothing more than a self-righteous speed bump on the road to actual justice. And at the helm of this sputtering, compromised machine sits Brent Leatherwood, the kind...
In the ancient world, the sick and dying would embark on desperate pilgrimages to the sanctuaries of Asclepius, the Greek god of healing. These were not hospitals. These were temples—shrines of mysticism where hope and illusion walked hand in hand. Scattered across...
I previously wrote to you demonstrating how the Democrat-backed federal government has been laundering money through USAID and other taxpayer-funded slush funds, funneling it into the hands of anti-American, anti-conservative faux Christian ministries like The After...
I hesitate to continue writing about Donald Trump, as I want to be clear that I do not view him as any kind of messianic figure, savior of the nation, or a “Christian” hero. He is not—he is simply the result of a nation that is, if nothing but for a momentary reprieve...
There’s a cabal of evangelical leftists parading around as champions of compassion—valiant knights charging into battle against the cold-hearted, unfeeling forces that dare to suggest a sovereign nation not only has the right but the duty to control its own borders....
It was only a matter of time before Bethel Church, the grand cathedral of charismatic charlatanry, decided to throw one of its own to the wolves. And who better than Shawn Bolz—a man whose entire career has been built on the kind of “prophecy” that conveniently aligns...
Leftists love them some Jesus—so long as He can be twisted into a progressive mascot for their latest political crusade. But the moment He starts talking about sin, repentance, or judgment, they promptly shove Him back into the box labeled "outdated religious figure."...
For years, the federal government has indulged in a fantasy—one where reality is subjective, identity is fluid, and personal validation is the highest virtue. But not anymore. In a simple yet profound executive order, President Trump has done what should have been...
I ran across a tweet this morning, and the reality struck me—I couldn't argue against this fact. It read: The sheer weight of that number is staggering. Nine thousand innocent lives snuffed out in the span of a few days, while the so-called “pro-life” movement claps...
Leftists and LGBT activists are predictably losing their collective minds over Idaho’s new resolution against Obergefell v. Hodges, and frankly, it’s a spectacle worthy of popcorn. Like vampires hissing at the sunlight, homosexuals, queers, and every sexual...
Former Vice President Mike Pence, in an interview with Russell Moore—the former chief of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission—praised Jimmy Carter for being a "born-again Christian" and even admitted to voting for him during his...
Michael Jackson moonwalked his way into the hearts of millions, perhaps billions, of people around the globe, a glittering icon who could do no wrong in the eyes of his adoring fans. They cheered, screamed, and wept at the mere sight of him, entranced by the aura of...
For centuries, at least in the West, the church held an unparalleled position of trust and reverence. They were seen as the stewards of moral clarity in a world ever-increasing in cultural chaos. They were the shepherds who guided their flocks with conviction and...
I don’t know who this person is, but his anti-homeschooling tweets keep making their way into my feed. So, I think I’m going to deal with them here. I doubt he’ll see my response, or care, for that matter. But for those who do care, here goes.Here’s his claim:...
