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 Honor Governing Authorities: What Scripture Requires of Believers
Modern Evangelical discourse has revealed a troubling inconsistency.
Many professing believers claim deep commitment to the authority of Scripture. Yet when the subject turns to political leaders—particularly Donald Trump—that commitment often evaporates.

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

Evangelicals Compromise Homosexuality: When Loved Ones Come Out as Gay
When Relationships Challenge Conviction Father and daughter enjoying one another's company One of the most powerful forces shaping modern moral beliefs is personal relationships . 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

Evangelical Faith and Party Conflict Karen Whitsett Decision to leave Democratic Party
A Michigan Democratic lawmaker recently made a statement that has reverberated across political and religious circle and it is so refreshing that in light of the all the gloom and doom that Jesus Christ is still in the saving business.

Evangelicals & African American Political Agency: The Harris Faulkner Panel and the Question of Cultural Permission
Political agency assumes something fundamental: Individuals possess the moral and intellectual capacity to reach conclusions independently of collective pressure.
Yet modern discourse increasingly treats political deviation not merely as disagreement but as disqualification.
When African Americans express viewpoints outside assumed ideological boundaries, criticism frequently shifts from argumentation to delegitimization.
The implication becomes clear:

Kim Burrell Don Lemon Controversy: Evangelicals, Cultural Pressure, and Public Theology
The Kim Burrell Don Lemon Controversy and the Question of Public Theology Image of Kim Burrell I want to make it explicitly clear at the onset, which is beyond the scope of today's blog post, that Kim Burrell was in no way preaching a sermon in any shape, form, or fashion. God's Word is explicitly clear on the matter. Women can not preach, teach, or attempt to usurp authority in God's place of worship and the home. I would further submit as a minority report that women are no
