Earlier this year Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM) hired a law firm to investigate allegations of sexual misconduct that had been leveled against its deceased namesake. This week that firm reported that “credible evidence” indicates that Ravi Zacharias indeed “engaged in sexual misconduct over many years”. Accusations of (among other things) credentials fraud and sexting … Read more
Who is the worst Christian of 2020? On the surface, this seems like a foolish or even pharisaical question. The fact of the matter is that there are none worthy to stand righteous before God except his perfect son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Every believer struggles with sin every day and will continue to do … Read more
Three Sundays ago, after church, I drove up to Alpharetta to meet with Anurag Sharma. Sharma was, along with his friend Ravi Zacharias, the co-owner of Jivan Wellness, the now infamous spa where the world-famous apologist has been accused (by multiple witnesses) of asking for “happy endings” and sexual intercourse. The story of Jivan Spa … Read more

Former Southern Baptist Convention President and Current NAMB Vice President of Evangelism Johnny Hunt. These were the local, influential celebrity Christians who spoke, circa 2009, at the grand opening of Jivan Wellness in Johns Creek, Georgia. The new … Read more
Lifeway Christian Resources, the retail and sales arm of the Southern Baptist Convention and the bane of biblical Christians everywhere, pulled down the Teen Devotional ‘The Word According to Gen-Z’ after several examples of the bible translations they use in the book to make the scriptures more accessible and relevant to Gen Z readers (Born … Read more
Back in February I published an article entitled “Conservative? Prove It – Disfellowship Wade Burleson” in which I challenged conservative Southern Baptists to report Emmanuel Enid Baptist Church (which is pastored by notorious egalitarian Wade Burleson) in Oklahoma to the SBC credentials committee for employing female “pastors,” Marisa Sauls and Lori Westfall. A couple of men … Read more
In November of 2018, Jackie Hill Perry tweeted out that the Gospel did not belong to the “white man.” I tweeted out the obvious; neither is Christianity the exclusive property of militant, butch black women. The Internet then exploded. I haven’t been back to Twitter since. Apparently, militant butch black women can say any horrendous … Read more
It was recently announced that Lifeway Christian Resources is feeling the financial squeeze due to the coronavirus. Sales across key channels are down 25%, further downward trends are expected, and as a result they are cutting their budget some $30 million, or approximately 10%. This announcement follows in the wake of an earlier one where … Read more
If you can picture a crazed woman, who, having managed to scuttle atop a Chick-fil-A rooftop, is now alternating between throwing rocks down upon irritated patrons below and urinating on them as they pass by, all while the police watch, sit back, and stand down, then congrats, you’ve accurately surmised the state of the SBC … Read more
Danny Akin is feeling the heat for hiring Karen Swallow Prior, a gay-affirming self-avowed feminist who believes that calling abortion murder is “unchristlike.” Defending himself during a Q&A at FBC Henderson – which by necessity required defending Karen Swallow Prior’s atrocious words, Akin called Prior’s critics “liars.” Quoted by the sunshine-pumping public relations department at … Read more
A quick survey of social media and blogs strongly defending Russell Moore and the Southern Baptist Convention reveals that they all have one thing in common. They are on the teat of the SBC spoils system and are compensated by Russell Moore. Like baby pigs suckling on the mother sow, these seemingly run-of-the-mill supporters of … Read more
I awoke this morning and saw the polemics headlines coming out of the unofficial but more successful versions of the Baptist Press, Reformation Charlotte and Capstone Report. Blissfully unaware of most headlines reported on during my weekly Sabbath rest, I opened my eyes to see the following: SBC Pastor’s Conference speaker’s church does Satanic choreographed … Read more
Dear Christian Brother or Sister, I’m a Baptist, like you. I want to see God glorified. I want to see the gospel go forth to the nations. I am a graduate of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, a school that your church has supported with the money you put in the offering plate. You subsidized … Read more
JD Greear, the woefully immature “frat boy” president of the Southern Baptist Convention, took to social media yesterday to brag about receiving a “worst Christian of the year” trophy in the mail, which was sent to him in acknowledgment of receiving the award by Pulpit & Pen. At the time the end-of-the-year award was given, … Read more
Cancel Culture The phenomenon of “cancel culture” has come to the Southern Baptist Convention thanks to leftists in the ‘woke’ Social Gospel movement like JD Greear, Karen Swallow Prior, Russell Moore, and Albert Mohler (whose continual hiring and support of progressive extremists has pushed the SBC to the hard left). Cancel culture occurs when public … Read more
