Evangelicals & Agency vs Systemic Racism: The Primary Driver of Cultural Outcomes
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. From education gaps to crime rates to economic inequality, the prevailing claim is that systems—past and present—are the primary drivers of negative outcomes. This fram

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 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
