Evangelicals & The Generation That Sacrificed Versus the Generation That Redefines
Any serious comparison between generations must begin with an admission that America has never been morally spotless. To pretend otherwise would weaken the very argument that needs to be made.

Evangelicals & The Negro/Black Church at the Crossroads: How Did We Get Here?
I continue to be vexed at what I see transpiring in Black/Negro America. From mayhem in Chicago city streets to young Black/Negro males committing heinous violent crimes with their parents’ full-throated defense to many prominent Black/Negro wolves in sheep’s clothing leading untold millions astray toward their eternal demise, I find myself at a crossroads.

Evangelicals & America's Dangerous Embrace of Socialism:Christianity and Socialism: Why History Warns Every Evangelical
Evangelicals & America's Dangerous Embrace of Socialism For much of the twentieth century, Socialism was an ideology that Americans largely rejected. The horrors of the Soviet Union, the Berlin Wall, Communist repression in Eastern Europe, and the Cold War served as constant reminders of what occurred whenever governments attempted to replace free markets with centralized economic control. Generations of Americans grew up understanding that while Capitalism was imperfect, Soc

Evangelicals & Eternity: Living in Light of Eternity: Why I Believe I Have More Days Behind Me Than Ahead
There are seasons in every believer's life when the Lord graciously forces him to stop long enough to evaluate not merely where he has been, but where he is going. For me, that season has arrived at sixty-two years of age. While none of us knows the number of days God has ordained for us, I have come to the sober realization that I almost certainly have more days behind me than I have ahead of me. That realization has not filled my heart with discouragement.

Evangelicals & Watching the Times: Supreme Court Girls' Sports Decision: Why Evangelicals Must Watch the Times
The recent decision by the United States Supreme Court affirming that states possess the constitutional authority to restrict participation in girls' athletic competition to biological females will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the most significant cultural rulings of the past several years. While many commentators have focused almost exclusively on the debate surrounding transgender participation in athletics, the decision reaches far beyond locker rooms, playing field

Evangelicals & Law and Order: Why We Must Wait for the Facts
The death of a one-year-old child is a tragedy that should grieve every person with a functioning conscience. No political argument, social-media post, or ideological agenda should ever diminish the heartbreak of a young life lost. Families are hurting, a community is searching for answers, and emotions are understandably running high.

Evangelicals & Personal Responsibility: Jemele Hill, Cyrus Carmack-Belton & The Accountability Crisis
The death of Cyrus Carmack-Belton is a tragedy. A young life was lost. A family is grieving. No decent person should celebrate that reality. But tragedy should never become an excuse to abandon truth.
Since the acquittal of Chikei Rick Chow, much of the public discussion has focused on portraying Cyrus as a completely innocent victim. His mother has understandably defended her son and highlighted his humanity. Yet there is a danger when grief becomes revisionist history.

The Dominant Narrative Author's note: I will be discussing this topic tomorrow evening, Wednesday, April 29, 2026, at 7 PM CST: https://youtube.com/live/jLPr25FfDhw?feature=share In modern discourse, one explanation dominates nearly every conversation regarding disparities in American society: systemic racism.

Evangelicals & The Abortion Illusion: When Even Abortion Advocates Admit the Truth
For decades, the abortion debate in America has been framed as a dispute over “choice,” “rights,” and “healthcare.” But beneath the slogans and carefully constructed language lies a reality that even some of the most prominent advocates of abortion have admitted.
Recent reflections from actress Christina Applegate—where she reportedly acknowledged in her own journaling that she was ending the life of her unborn child—force an uncomfortable question back into the public squ

Evangelicals & Political Idolatry: Trump’s AI Image and a Necessary Biblical
A recent image circulating online — reportedly posted on Truth Social by Donald Trump — has ignited strong reactions across political and religious communities. It is precisely why I, in good conscience, could not, did not, and would not cast a ballot for Donald J. Trump. I must quickly add that this in no way implies I voted for the deplorable and morally reprehensible option of casting a ballot for Kamala Harris.

Evangelicals & the Negro Church: Is the Negro Church Abandoning Scripture? Evangelicals Confront Cultural Pressure
The Negro Church has historically served as a pillar of spiritual conviction, community leadership, and moral clarity in American society. From the era of Reconstruction through the Civil Rights movement, the church was often the central institution through which Negroes preserved dignity, organized for justice, and proclaimed the authority of the Word of God.

Evangelicals response to President Removing Military Commanders – Historical Precedent
I understand why so many express Negro Fatigue. My FB feed, as well as my text thread, is full of Woke Negroes losing their collective minds because the Trump administration has removed Negro senior leaders, especially the latest to hit the news: Major General William Green Jr.
All this being done despite this type of action being taken by almost all POTUS, including the last few. Recent criticism of the Trump administration for removing several military officers has spark

Evangelicals & the “Woke Military” Controversy
Evangelicals & the “Woke Military” Controversy A political firestorm erupted after the Secretary of Defense removed four officers from a military promotion list, reportedly due to concerns about “woke ideology.” I submit Wokeism has no part in military life and salute the Trump administration for moving aggressively to remove all adherence to such a demoralizing worldview.

Evangelicals & Viral Outrage: When Charlie Kirk Was Accused of Being “Out of Context”
The Age of the Viral Clip Campus debates often reveal the full context of controversial statements. Modern political debates are no longer shaped primarily by full speeches or extended interviews. Instead, they are increasingly defined by short clips circulating on social media . Statements that originally occurred in long conversations are reduced to five or ten seconds and then shared widely without the surrounding argument. That dynamic became evident when comments from Ch

This issue is never abstract or academic. I, probably like you, have homosexual family members and friends. For many Evangelicals, the issue of homosexuality becomes intensely personal when a son, daughter, sibling, or close friend announces that they identify as gay. I submit that you better make u
