Pastor Rhett Burns has had enough. In a sharply written essay for the Center for Baptist Leadership, Burns calls for SBC Executive Committee president Jeff Iorg to resign, declaring that “the re-Iorganization of the SBC has failed.” Drawing from a vivid car-wreck analogy—warning lights ignored until the engine seizes—Burns argues
The Daniel Keene case shows how extra-biblical “charges,” opaque processes, and elder overreach corrode Baptist polity. Historic Baptist church discipline is meant to protect the purity of the church and restore sinners through clear, biblical charges and a congregational process (Matt. 18:15–17; 1 Cor. 5). What happened to Texas business
When JD Greear tells pastors to “stay above the fray,” he’s not calling them to holiness. He’s calling them to silence. In his essay, Faithfulness amid the Culture War, published at the hive of scum and villainy known as The Gospel Coalition, Greear argues that pastors occupy a different plane

In the interview, Begg sadly blames “some enterprising
I’ll admit it. I’ve long suspected that there was a young, growing cohort of Christian LARPers on social media who love the trappings of Christian historical identity, Western culture, and Euro-centricity over and above the Savior who is our religion’s namesake. It’s like they’ve decided that they’ve got the whole
Given the rate of promiscuity among young women and loneliness among young men, we had better have a theology of Expiation strong enough to handle it. The Protestia X account did what it does best. It threw a theological grenade into the rotting temple of modern evangelical sentimentalism and stood
Below is a sneak peek of this INSIDER content. If John MacArthur had been born in the 15th century, he would have been excommunicated three times and burned twice—and still showed up to preach the next morning. He was the unflinching, gravel-voiced Calvinist warhammer of Sun Valley. The man who
