Tice, best known for co-writing the evangelism course Christianity Explored and co-founder of Christianity Explored Ministries, cited the denomination's recent decision to allow priests to bless same-sex couples and its lack of substantive response to concerns laid out by him and five other leaders of CofE-connected parachurch organizations last October.In an interview with Evangelicals Now, Tice, the former senior minister at All Souls, Langham Place...

Bishop Eduard Khegay of the Eurasia Episcopal Area expressed his gratitude for the denomination, explaining that "I became a Christian because of The United Methodist Church." While overwhelmingly approved, some argued that the petition was unnecessary...

He has now been branded a misogynist and forced into a groveling apology over the incident, which was live-streamed online. In the footage, Rev. Tucker, who is the leader of The Crossing, an LGBTQ-inclusive congregation, explained to the...

She was elected president of the COB last November. Malone told The Christian Post on Thursday that it was "an honor to be elected by my colleagues," calling it an "historical election" that "is a...

And to do so by taking the Lord’s name in vain is, well, let’s just say they should be praying for the millstone. This Methodist “pastor” dresses his children...

Some examples: Christianity The Catholic Church’s disapproving stance toward gender transition is shared by some other denominations.

    The Episcopal Church is an apostate denomination. In August 2022, they passed a resolution affirming sex change surgeries for children of any age. Because apparently mutilating children’s bodies to fit a certain ideology is a top priority for this “Christian” denomination. Patrick Burke is the Rector at the Episcopal Church of Saints Andrew and Matthew in Wilmington, Delaware. He holds a Master of Divinity from Bexley Seabury Seminary in Chicago and has devoted his entire life to merging sexual immorality and Marxist concepts with professing Christianity, where he advocates for abnormal sexual behaviors such as “transgenderism” and attempts to mainstream...

    Atheist author Richard Dawkins described himself as a "cultural Christian" and lamented the faith's waning cultural influence in Europe, though he still derided its key tenets as "nonsense," during an interview on Easter Sunday. Speaking with British journalist Rachel Johnson, Dawkins noted that the United Kingdom is "fundamentally a Christian country," and he still personally values the Christian ethos despite not believing the religion from which it emerged. "I call myself a cultural Christian," said the evolutionary biologist and author of The God Delusion. "I'm not a believer, but there's a distinction between being a believing Christian and being a...
