Two members of a North Texas school board that voted to remove a superintendent who objected to a same-sex "kiss" during a school play belong to the same LGBT-affirming denominational church. A recent investigation commissioned by the Sherman ISD Board of Trustees revealed that former Superintendent Tyson Bennett intervened in the casting of the high school musical "Oklahoma!" with the intent to prevent same-sex kissing. This intervention came to light after a female student who identifies as a male was removed from her leading male role in the production last November, a decision that sparked a national conversation surrounding gay,...

BURNET COUNTY, Texas - A man was arrested for reporting a fabricated story to law enforcement after he fired shots near a Burnet County church on Sunday. According to the Burnet County Sheriff's Office, on Sunday, Oct. 6, just after 10:30 a.m., deputies responded to the Church at the Epicenter on N US 281 for a welfare check due to an unknown 911 call. "If there’s a thing in you that’s saying this isn’t for real, it is for real," an Epicenter church member told the congregation Sunday morning. The Epicenter church service in Burnet County was interrupted by a...

For the vast majority of modern history, women have outnumbered men when it comes to who shows up most often at church. In fact, many scholars have come to see it as something of a universal truth. However, the latest research for Gen Z men and women shows that pattern has started to change.As Ruth Graham describes, “For the first time in modern American history, young men are now more religious than their female peers. They attend services more often and are more likely to identify as religious.” And this trend appears to be unique to Gen Z, since men...

Progressive “Christianity,” if you want to call it that, is nothing but a fraud—a shameless charade where self-appointed “pastors” like this Emily Bowen-Marler strut about in clerical garb, pretending to speak for a God they openly despise. In this sermon, she says that the Kingdom of God is like a pride fest, like a drag queen reading stories to children. Interestingly enough, that’s exactly how I picture Hell. And how could these parables teach them that maybe they don’t have to be so afraid? The kingdom of God is like pride fest filled with people singing and dancing and explosion...

The Lausanne Movement, founded in 1974, presents itself as a global evangelical network aimed at fulfilling the Great Commission. However, it has since evolved into a platform for globalist ideologies, aligning closely with organizations like the World Economic Forum. Prominent evangelical leaders within Lausanne, including false teachers such as Tim Keller, David Platt, and Rick Warren, push for social justice, wealth redistribution, and environmental activism. This movement subtly repackages Christianity to support a socialist agenda, undermining the true gospel in favor of worldly philosophies and a distorted social mission. The Lausanne Movement not only aligns with these globalist ideologies but...

A pastor's daughter thought she had escaped a childhood of sexual abuse by moving out and getting married only to see her father break into her house and sodomize her weeks after she had a baby. Bertheophilus 'Judge' Bailey, a respected minister at St Andrew Christian Church in Tulsa began abusing Harmony Oates when she was in sixth grade, court documents claim. He told his daughter he was her 'boyfriend' and that the little girl would unleash a 'total catastrophe to the whole kingdom of God' if she ever revealed what he was doing to her. But he was arrested...

The Revoice Conference is a coalition of “gay Christians” who collude annually to prop up their status as outspoken homosexuals and promote the gay agenda of full acceptance and inclusion in the ranks of churches in America. Led by gay activists such as Nate Collins and Preston Sprinkle, the Conference promotes an identity of “gay” while committing to a life of “celibacy.” After all, other forms of same-sex intimacy are acceptable within the movement. Revoice has been endorsed by a professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary—a Southern Baptist Convention seminary—who says despite some disagreements she now has with them, she...

A former Gateway Church member who had her membership revoked and was allegedly forced off church property by armed guards for publicly criticizing the Texas megachurch for its alleged lack of transparency and accountability amid child sex abuse allegations against founder Robert Morris is now speaking out. "I will say this: in my 47 years of life, I have never had my church membership revoked, dismissed, as they wanted to call it," Valentina Hansen, Grapevine resident and former Gateway Church member and volunteer, told The Christian Post in an interview Tuesday. "I've never had my volunteer opportunities be dismissed." Morris...

Pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter is everywhere — even the chorus of scandals around Mayor Eric Adams. The brouhaha began with the pint-size singer’s racy music video, showing her writhing in a little black dress at the altar of a Brooklyn church, moments after men bloodily killed themselves over her. An unholy uproar ensued, leading an “appalled” bishop to discipline the flamboyant Catholic priest who opened the church’s doors to the booty-baring Carpenter. And now, the sacrilegious saga has ended in an unlikely place — with the sultry Sabrina putting the hitherto unknown priest and church on the radar of feds...

The 10,000-member Bethel Church in Redding, California, is an assortment of false teaching and bizarre charismatic shenanigans. From ‘Little God theology,’ using prophetic Uno cards, going on satanic treasure hunts, teaching that Adam created the animals in Eden, that Michael the Archangel wears tights, and that angels sit around the throne of God having “farting contests,” it’s a hotbed of strange fire burning uncontrollably throughout Christendom. (see endnotes.) Yet what many people may not know about Bethel church is that along with their more notorious claims of gold dust falling from “glory clouds in the ceiling” and gold teeth being...

(RNS) — Leaders of The Meeting House, a Toronto area megachurch with multiple locations and once one of the largest congregations in Canada, has shut down its public ministry, becoming a consortium of smaller congregations. “It is with sadness that we are required to bring the public-facing ministry of The Meeting House to an end as of August 29,” according to a statement posted on the church’s website. “Going forward, there will no longer be churches operating programs or doing ministry under the banner of The Meeting House.” The church’s remote sites will be rebranded as the “BIC Church Collective,”...

A federal judge ordered a former church office manager to pay $912,000 in restitution for embezzling money from a Baptist church in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and failing to pay taxes. Katrenia Hartman, former office manager at Trinity Baptist Church in Tulsa, pleaded guilty in January to bank fraud and willfully filing a false federal income tax return. On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Gregory K. Frizzell sentenced Hartman, 55, to serve 30 months in prison and five years of supervised release, according to a press release by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Northern District of Oklahoma. She also must pay the IRS more...

After leaders at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, realized that some accounting discrepancies were growing “larger and larger,” they confronted a lifelong member who had access to church funds. Now William Reed, 73, has been charged with stealing almost a quarter-million dollars from the church’s Good Samaritan account. Money from that account, of which Reed had sole control, was intended to help neighbors in need. Instead, according to the criminal complaint, Reed moved $224,000 from that account to his personal American Express account. Reed held several finance-related positions at the church for the past 14 years, authorities said....

Disclaimer: The opinions expressed in this guest post are solely those of the guest author. This election season, pastors must unapologetically speak truth to their congregations in pulpits nationwide, including this message that many shy away from: Abortion is murder and must be unabashedly opposed by followers of Christ. The pro-life landscape in America would look radically different if the Church advocated for preborn lives. In Florida, if the deadly abortion Amendment 4 is to fail, Christians cannot remain quiet or complacent as they have in years past. Sadly, it is estimated that 25 million Christians who are registered to...
