They hired and/or platformed left-wingers, but their treatment of Charlie Kirk was different. Fascinating discussion about TGC and other institutions and personalities within evangelicalism: Some further thoughts to add to my comments on the Charlie Kirk Show with @AndrewKolvet yesterday. After talking with friends in various forms of ministry, here's […]

Changing Of The Guard At Southeastern Seminary
Danny Akin, the president of the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, announced his retirement yesterday. If the same kind of crowd that hired him and kept him employed will be selecting his replacement, we have no reason to believe there will be an improvement. Check out the below video from the […]
J.D. Greear’s Most Recent Defenses
We discuss here Rev. Greear’s various actions and statements because of the disproportionate influence he has here in North Carolina among Southern Baptists and throughout the Convention.

Self-Censorship By Pastors
“In this day and hour, one of the ways you can measure the biblical fidelity of a preacher is not just by what he will say—but by some of the things he won’t say. There are churches all across the southeast and literally from coast to coast…you let a criminal […]
J.D. Greear’s Quota
In the below clip, J.D. Greear of Summit Church in Durham, NC attempts to stoke the guilt of congregants over our nation’s past. He is setting a goal for the congregation to reach a certain percentage of African-American members or employees. This is all under the guise of adhering to […]

We are to believe that Charlie Kirk is at fault for his own murder/ assassination because of the way he spoke. This is a great example of the equivocation and profound lack of wisdom we see among many younger pastors– especially those within the social justice/ “woke camp”. But we […]
Marxism In The Church
The Dissenter (formerly Reformation Charlotte) has an excellent summary that describes the infiltration of Marxism in the evangelical church over the last half-century. Some of this information may be familiar, but parts will not be. I am taking the liberty of excerpting heavily: Evangelicals… signed the Chicago Declaration of Evangelical […]
J.D. Greear Pro-LGBT Rights
If you're having a hard time understanding how two homosexual men with child sex offenses can get their hands on a baby boy, remember when JD Greear told us Christians should be "among the fiercest advocates for LGBT rights"? pic.twitter.com/Ys2IemnFgQ — The Dissenter (@disntr) July 29, 2025
What They Do When They Take Over A Church To Transform It
Jon Harris describes some of the things that happened at the three high-profile church takeovers that had been previously highlighted: In February 2019, Hayes Wicker, the revered pastor of First Baptist Church of Naples, was forced to resign, compelled to sign a non-disclosure agreement, and barred from the church campus […]
