Jon Harris has a great article at American Reformer that discusses the phenomenon of progressive forces within the Southern Baptist Convention taking over conservative churches and remaking them. He cites certain high profile examples; but this doubtless has occurred in various ways at other churches nationwide and here in North […]

Local Religious Left Protests Illegal Immigration Enforcement
The News and Record has a big article about a small protest in downtown Greensboro in which several liberal/ progressive/ socialist clergy participated. Among those represented were a Lutheran pastor; a female Unitarian minister; and also a minister from a local black church. I wonder what their theology is– if […]
Watch This Interaction
When Russell Moore was a leader within the Southern Baptist Convention, a court action was supported to enable an Islamic mosque to be built. When he was asked about this at the annual meeting by a concerned pastor, he responded. Check out his faulty reasoning, and the shoddy manner he […]
Full Interview With Willy Rice on The SBC
I had posted a short clip from this interview a couple of days ago. Willy Rice is pastor of a large Southern Baptist Church in Florida with multiple campuses.

SBC Research Fellow Supports Drag Queen Story Hours In Libraries
The Dissenter reports about a Research Fellow at the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. The bottom line is that the gentleman expressed support for library drag queen story hours. This type of awfulness will persist within the Convention as long as individual churches refuse to do anything […]
Southern Baptist Convention Allowing Churches With Female Pastors
The details are shared by the Dissenter. Nate Schlomann explains that the Convention rejected the Law Amendment at its national meeting last year. Allowing churches with female pastors is the inevitable consequence of that decision. This is what happens when you have borderline progressive SBC presidents elected over a period […]
When Churches Want Government Money (Or When They Demand It)
There was a fairly striking article within the last couple of days. The Catholic bishops in the United States are suing the Trump Administration because of cuts to funding for services delivered to “refugees”. A few points come to mind. First, with Biden’s massive effort to throw open the borders […]
