Many years ago, I was a football fan — a diehard, even. I stuck with the Panthers through seasons so bad they should’ve been classified as disaster zones, and I relished the rare payoff of seeing them claw their way to a Super Bowl. Those days are long gone. The NFL...

By John B. Carpenter It's not salacious—no Jeffrey Epstein-like debauchery, no seven-figure embezzlement—but it's still a scandal. The Gospel Coalition's (TGC) flagship journal, Themelios, which TGC consistently promotes as "peer-reviewed," breaks de facto contracts...

Huntsville, Alabama, has an SBC megachurch with a big problem in the pulpit, a “big-bang problem,” and its name is Travis Collins. Collins, senior pastor of First Baptist Church Huntsville, isn’t content to simply open the Bible, read what it says, and preach it. No,...

Marxism didn’t storm the gates of Evangelicalism with tanks and bayonets—it rolled in quietly, like termites in the woodwork, and by the time anyone noticed, the beams were already hollow. Like the Scriptures warn of false ideologies, it “crept in unawares,” and...

I don’t know exactly when it happens or what it looks like in practical, tangible detail. But what I do know is this: Psalm 2 is not poetry for the sake of art. It is a declaration of divine mockery—a promise that when the world raises its collective fist against God,...

Charismania is a traveling circus where the tent never folds, the clowns never scrub off their greasepaint, and the ticket price keeps climbing while the performance rots from the inside out. Every season the ringmaster trips over his own whip, the spotlight catches...

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 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...
