(Marcia Montenegro – Midwest Christian Outreach) The distortions of God continue unchecked in the culture of the Enneagram celebrities. A recent example is Rev. Michael John Cusick, M.A., L.P.C., founder and CEO of Restoring the Soul, an organization in Colorado. IAN CRON recently promoted Michael John Cusick on his Typology podcast. In doing a bit of research on Cusick and his organization, I came across his podcast, “Episode 100 – Kelley Gray, ‘5 Ways the Enneagram Can Strengthen Your Marriage, Part II: Understanding How Your Partner Handles Conflict’” on Luminary.

Who Is Running This Show, Anyway?
“Who rules? The people, articulating their interests through the metabolism of ordinary politics? Or the bureaucratic elite, who claim to discern the inevitable direction and goal of history and are prepared to marshal the coercive power of the state to prevent anything from cluttering up that highway to enlightenment?”
(Roger Kimball – American Greatness) Some people, including me, are inclined to disparage social media as an insidious and anencephalic force. Insidious it may be, but it is not entirely brainless. As proof, I offer the fact that I just learned the valuable word “quockerwodger” from a Tweet proffered by a friend…. Continue reading
The Spiritual Abuse of Julie Roys
2 Samuel 12:5-7a Then David’s anger was greatly kindled against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves to die, and he shall restore the lamb fourfold, because he did this thing, and because he had no pity.” Nathan said to David, “You are the man!
(David Morrill) Imagine that you came across the following quotes from a youth minister, written about a former student in their ministry:
How did I get entangled in an emotionally dysfunctional relationship with a former student in our church youth group?… Continue reading
Tom Buck: SBC leaders emotionally assaulted us
“Sadly, unless God changes the evil hearts of Todd Benkert of SBC Voices and Rob Collingsworth of Criswell College, they will not do the right thing. Instead, they will serve their father the destroyer and accuser of Christians.”
(Capstone Report) Tom and Jennifer Buck set the record straight about how Southern Baptist insiders tried to blackmail them into silence to harm the conservative fight against liberal drift. In their dramatic and at times tear filled video, Tom Buck and his wife Jennifer asked the SBC leaders to do the right thing and reveal the people who emotionally assaulted them by sharing their private story—a story where both survived abuse before they met. Continue reading
New Documents Suggest Democrats Sicced The CIA On Their Domestic Enemy, The President
[T]he corrupt media downplayed the misuse of the EOP DNS data by focusing on the fact that Joffe and his crew had accessed the EOP data while Barack Obama was still president. But these newly released CIA notes establish that the EOP DNS data specifically targeted Trump “after his move to the White House.”
(Margot Cleveland – The Federalist) Newly released CIA memoranda suggest the tech gurus behind the Alfa Bank hoax also tracked Donald Trump’s movements to devise another collusion conspiracy theory. While smaller in scale than other aspects of Spygate, the Yotaphone hoax represents an equally serious scandal because it involved both the mining of proprietary information and sensitive data from the Executive Office of the President (EOP) and the apparent surveillance of Trump’s physical movements.

“So what do we get when we put these two heretics together? A social justice sermon about how Jesus came to set marginalized and oppressed women free.”
(The Dissenter) T.D. Jakes is the founder and senior pastor of one of the largest churches in the nation, The Potter’s House, in Dallas, TX. Jakes is a well-known prosperity gospel preacher who has embraced not only the heresy of the Word of Faith movement but also a heretical view of the trinity known as modalism. Continue reading
Jill Biden’s Criminal Elder Abuse Is Going to Ruin Us All
“DOCTOR Jill is perfectly content to let Joe finish his long career falling apart on television just so she can have everyone in Washington suck up to her while she’s keeping the evil teachers’ unions in bed with the president of the United States.”
(Stephen Kruiser – PJ Media) It’s important to keep reminding ourselves that we are, in fact, not crazy. After all, we’re living in a time when the seemingly pervasive mainstream media keeps insisting that what we can plainly see with our eyes and hear with our ears isn’t really happening. Continue reading
It’s Finally Time for GOP Lawmakers to Expose the Dark Side of the Disney Regime Once and For All
“Year after year, Disney employees are arrested in sex sting operations set up by local authorities and for possessing child pornography. And it’s not just random maintenance workers with no interaction with kids who are being arrested. Many of these alleged child predators are security guards, hotel staff, performers, and other workers who come in close contact with children every day.”
(Revolver News) Florida Governor Ron DeSantis just struck a heroic blow against Disney with the recent passage of a bill that would dissolve Disney’s de facto private government and threaten the numerous tax perks that go along with it: Continue reading
How America Became La La Land
“Biden has no solutions to these self-created problems because of the ideological restraints the Left has imposed on him. The administration fears the anger of the hard Left more than the furor of the American people. So it will not change, preferring to be politically correct and a failure than to be ideologically incorrect and successful.”
(Victor Davis Hanson – American Greatness) America these last 14 months resembles a dystopia. It is becoming partly the world of George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, partly the poet Homer’s land of the Lotus-Eaters.
Nothing seems to be working. And no one in control seems to care. Continue reading
Confessions of a Disney writer
“Parents are now furious about Disney’s woke agenda to sexualize children, and they’re organizing and protesting. Will their consumer boycotts of Disney’s products and theme parks have a long-term impact on Disney’s bottom line? It’s too soon to tell, but Disney’s hostility to traditional family values is not winning it friends, and its brand magic seems to be evaporating.”
(Stella Paul – American Thinker) For many years, I made my living writing TV shows for Disney. I was proud of my work, considering it a privilege to make kids laugh all over the world. But in light of Disney’s disastrous embrace of pro-pedophilia policies, I’m glad that I grew disillusioned with kids’ TV and walked away from the field. Continue reading
Elon Musk Says ‘Woke Mind Virus Is Making Netflix Unwatchable,’ and Subscribers Are Fleeing in Droves
“The letter did not, of course, mention anything about the relentless politicization and Leftward cultural tilt of the material Netflix is producing, much less consider that as a possible reason why people are turning away in droves.”
(Robert Spencer – PJ Media) “The woke mind virus is making Netflix unwatchable,” Elon Musk tweeted Tuesday, and with good reason: Musk was commenting on news that Netflix has lost 200,000 subscribers during the first quarter of 2022 and its stock is nosediving…. Continue reading
Justin Peters Issues Open Challenge to Charismatic Prophets: ‘Here’s Your Chance to Embarrass Me…’
“Calling out several prophets by name, from Kris Vallaton to Troy Black to Kat Kerr, he notes that they claim to be in constant regular, face-to-face contact with God and many like Kerr claim to be constantly visiting heaven to get their daily download. Kerr claimed just the other day that God has told her what color of outfits she needs to start wearing,…”
(Protestia) Noted apologist Justin Peters has taken to social media and issued an open challenge to all his charismatic detractors and to all the so-called charismatic prophets out there claiming to regularly hear from God and issuing forth prophecies: ‘put up or shut up about your collective prophetic acumen, and answer this one question’. Continue reading
Mother says daughter’s entire friend group ‘discovered’ that they are transgender
“.. there is no test to distinguish between persisting gender dysphoria and transient adolescent dysphoria,” and noted that parents “should remain vigilant regarding the addictive role of excessive engagement with social media.”
(Hannah Nightingale – The Post Millennial) “My teenage daughter has decided that she is ‘trans’. So have all her friends. Not some of them. Not most of them. Every. Single. One,” the mother begins. Continue reading
Southeastern Seminary at Center of Plot to Damage Tom Buck
(Capstone Report) A plot to harm conservative SBC leader Tom Buck involves numerous connections to Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary including professor Karen Swallow Prior and SEBTS President Danny Akin.
Karen Swallow Prior blamed the victim and refused to Tom & Jennifer Buck.
SEBTS professor Karen Swallow Prior was one of a few who saw a rough draft of a blog post by Jennifer Buck that was weaponized to harm conservative Southern Baptist Pastor Tom Buck. Continue reading
Revoice Founder Now Promotes Heretical View of Hell as an ‘Orthodox’ View Held by ‘Bible Believing Christians’
(The Dissenter) Last November, The Dissenter reported that popular speaker, author, and pastor, David Platt of McLean Bible Church, would be joining Revoice “gay Christianity” leader, Preston Sprinkle for Sprinkle’s Theology in the Raw Conference. Thankfully, Platt bailed on that conference though, sources close to The Dissenter explained that Platt’s reason for not attending the conference was due to personal family issues surrounding an adopted child….

Masks fail their biggest test in Bangladesh
The mask mandate was lifted yesterday: The White House Surrenders on Mask Mandate for Public Transportation.
On April 14 Steve Kirsch published an article he wrote on the ineffectiveness of masks on the spread of SARS-CoV-2. According to Kirsch, “Masks do not work to protect anyone from SARS-CoV-2. It’s all based on sloppy science. We asked the senior author of the Bangladesh mask study to defend his study. He failed. Badly. Very badly.”
Now read Steve Kirsch’s article:
The CDC just decided to continue the transportation mask mandate for another two weeks. Dr. Bob Wachter, Chair of the Department of Medicine at UCSF, concurs with the CDC decision. This doesn’t prove that masks work. Instead, it proves that the CDC, Wachter, and most mainstream scientists (who claim masks work) are incapable of differentiating solid science from a sloppy study.

Study: U.S. Life Expectancy Declines for This Surprising Group, So Where’s the Leftist Outrage?
“The study also showed that the U.S. as a whole managed the COVID-19 pandemic worse than did 19 of its peer countries worldwide. When will the blue state governors realize they hurt their citizens more than helping them with their draconian lockdowns and mandates? I know, I know; read on.”
(Gwendolyn Sims – PJ Media) According to a yet-to-be-peer-reviewed medical study conducted by three public health researchers in Colorado, Virginia, and D.C., life expectancy in the U.S. has continued its startling decline since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic…. Continue reading
Hell hath no fury like progressive Christians reading The Babylon Bee
“The Bee regularly harpoons progressivism’s sacred cows, and even more potently skewers the idols of progressive Christianity. Of course those watching their gods be torched aren’t going to be big fans of the dudes spitting the fire.”
(Peter Heck – Not the Bee) When it comes to getting progressive Christians worked into pious, self-righteous indignation, there is nothing that holds a candle to the Christian satirists who work at The Babylon Bee. Global poverty, the immigration crisis, lack of potable water in the third world, communist genocide in the Far East, or the West’s steady decline into the pit of sexual immorality?… Continue reading
China’s Baffling Misstep On ‘Zero Covid’ Gives America a Glimmer Of Hope
“So, what to make of all this? Since the early days of Covid, some have theorized that China “faked out” the West; publicly treating Covid hyper-seriously early on in order to trick the rest of the world into overreacting and committing economic suicide. This theory was always far-fetched, but now it is definitively debunked. Outside of a few profoundly mentally ill cities like Philadelphia, the world has moved on from Covid, yet China continues to obsess over the virus.”
(Revolver News) China was supposed to be smarter than this.
For two weeks, China has had its largest, richest, and most Western-style mainland city on lockdown. Coronavirus has been spreading through the city at a rate of 25,000 new cases per day. This outbreak is China’s largest since Covid-19 first appeared in Wuhan 28 months ago…. Continue reading
‘God is Queer,’ Duke Divinity Students Proclaim
(Hope Rawlson – Juicy Ecumenism) Praying to “the Great Queer One,” students at United Methodist-affiliated Duke Divinity School proclaimed God’s acceptance and support for LGBTQ relationships in a Pride worship service March 22.
Divinity Pride, a student group affirming the “dignity, faithfulness, and strength of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, Asexual, and gender/sexuality non-conforming Christians,” sponsored the worship service. Continue reading
The plan to destroy America: Cloward-Piven and Obama
(Wayne Allyn Root) I’m just back from Florida where I had the great honor of speaking at a “Club 45” event that had two speakers: myself and former President Donald J. Trump. Thousands of tickets sold out in 20 minutes. We had a wild, raucous, standing-room-only crowd inside the ballroom of the Palm Beach Airport Hilton.
The main themes of the back-to-back speeches of Trump and myself were A) the possibly rigged, stolen 2020 election and B) the purposeful destruction of America that is being carried out by Joe Biden, who I believe to be the illegitimate president of the United States, and his radical handlers. Continue reading
What it means to be human…oh, what a tangled web
“The West no longer has any consensus on what it means to be a woman or even a person. And thus the ethical codes that assume such a consensus are falling apart with dramatic consequences for all sorts of areas, from Ivy League sports to the safety of our society’s most vulnerable—the very young and the very old who rely on others to care for them.”
(Carl Trueman – First Things) Confusion over what it means to be human continues to dog public life in the West. Soon after Anneliese Dodds, the Labour party shadow secretary for women, revealed that she does not know what a woman is, U.S. Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson deferred the same question to biologists. That move was odd…. Continue reading
The Children of Men: Understanding the Human Origins of Heresy
“The church should be no less busy today contradicting and stopping the mouths of heretics as it was from its beginning. Instead, many in the church have adopted the tactics and strategies of the world. They begin by labeling people who are concerned with doctrinal truth as unkind and mean-spirited and overly critical of others. Perhaps some would accuse them of being intellectual bullies. This kind of name-calling and classification is used to manipulate people’s behavior.”
(Ed Dingess) Lately, I have been focusing my blog posts on the subject of heresy. I am convinced that American Christians, for the most part, have completely lost touch with the true nature of heresy. This is due in no small part to ignorant pastors who, for the last 30 years have been bellowing out from the pulpit that doctrine doesn’t matter. Continue reading
What is God’s Purpose in Allowing False Teachers to Flourish?
“Scripture also teaches that those who are truly saved do not depart from the faith (1 Cor. 15:1-2). Preaching a false gospel would certainly be a departure from the faith. The Bible refers to saved people as “believers” (Acts 5:14; 1 Tim. 4:12). But if you are teaching and/or believing something contrary to the truth, how can you be a believer?”
(Dissenter) Have you ever slummed through a sermon by a preacher like Steven Furtick or Andy Stanley? Have you ever really just sat and listened to them preach? It’s easy to be drawn into the charismatic mood changing, emotionally-driven style of speech or worship…. Continue reading
Congresswoman Doubles Down on Promoting Drag Queen Story Hour in Cringeworthy Tweets
Drag queen “Annie Christ”
“Replies from the so-called “bigots” included taking issue with Rep. Maloney openly advocating for the grooming of children, as well as expressing concern with the priorities at play here.”
(Rebecca Downs – Townhall) As Townhall has been covering extensively, those with an agenda to groom children are out in full force. Such issues as “gender identity” and “expression” are being promoted by teachers who are being paid to teach children but are instead indoctrinating them. A sitting United States congresswoman is doing the same time. Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) posted a cringeworthy tweet on Monday from her official account, lamenting the issue of banned books….
