Boy Scouts of America get with the Big Gay Program.

At this point, news of the Boy Scouts of America formally allowing gay Scout leaders seems kind of…well…dull. Don’t get me wrong: It’s pathetic, sickeningly sad and evil, too. It’s just that in our current All-American pride-fueled rocket ride to oblivion context, the capitulation of the Boy Scouts of America to the Big Gay Wave is anything but surprising. After all, […]

The Awesome Theology Of Dirty Harry

“A man’s got to know his limitations.” ~ Detective Harry Callahan, Magnum Force (1973) . Truer words have never been spoken. And truer words have never been lost in the fog following a barrage of precisely placed rounds from a .44 Magnum. But there they stand nonetheless, those powerfully humbling words, haunting and reminding us to this […]

What if America had as many Christians as it does gay activists?

3%. That’s what it took to move America to where it is now. 3%. That’s all that was required to transition us from a people who at least loosely based their morality on some vaguely understood and appreciated Christian foundation into one that is openly and proudly based on self-centered, self-referential, and self-serving lust. (See: Limp Wristed Gospels […]

A Tale of Two (Gay American) Cities

Yesterday I encountered another version of something that I must have experienced – and I suspect that you’ve also witnessed – a million (or more) times before. In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s suicidal (re-)declaration of war on God, I heard the story of a professing Christian who, when asked what the court decision meant to him and how he was going to […]

Polygamy in America? Sure, why not?

Just when our proud plunge into cultural oblivion didn’t seem able to get any more pathetic, it has. And even though we had to see this particular turn for the ridiculous coming from many miles away, it still stings now that it’s finally arrived, kind of like last week’s Supreme Court decision. (See: “Supreme Court” Votes […]

Why using the Ten Commandments as a lucky rabbit’s foot is a really bad idea.

Contrary to popular American mythology, things like Bibles and Ten Commandments monuments make lousy (and particularly blasphemous) lucky rabbits’ feet. When we use them as superstitious icons and trinkets of protection – as we routinely do here in “the land of the free” and the home of the NSA – we aren’t proclaiming our fidelity to […]

Will America repent or will America be destroyed?

Can we stop with the “blame Obama” spiel, please? Can we please stop blaming the Democrats, the Progressives and the homosexual activists for leading the culture to ruin when they’re just doing what we’ve taught ’em to do? Let’s face it: Some version of “Can you believe how wicked and evil President Obama is?!” has become an […]

The Little gospel That Can’t

What happens to a people when their Gospel goes from great to small? What happens in a land where the Gospel retreats from actively engaging and defining every area of life and instead becomes a “private matter” restricted to prayer closets and church buildings? What happens to a culture where the Gospel shrinks from the loving confrontation and correction commanded in Scripture (see: […]

What would happen if Christians just said no to American Statism?

“Follow the money.” “Money makes the world go ’round.” These are reliable clichés for good reason; they point to truth. The ability to control individuals, cultures and civilization through control of their ability to pursue, attain and multiply wealth is as well established a fact of human history as one will find. Money is practical. It’s […]

What if I told you that marketing and memes can be used for good?

Sometimes things here seem so corrupted through sinful abuse that it’s hard to even imagine, much less clearly comprehend, a sinless version of them. Things like politics, economics, law, justice and art can seem “so far gone” because of the pervasiveness and depth of their abuse that they begin to feel somehow sinful or bad in and of […]

Do we love America enough to call her to repentance? Or are we too proud for that?

Nobody likes to have a spotlight shine on their own huge sins. We recoil at even the thought of it, and understandably so. We naturally want to preserve the lie that while “nobody’s perfect” and “we’re only human” just like “everyone else”, we’re really not nearly as bad as this obviously awful dude over here or that glaringly […]

Who owns America? (Hint: Not “We the People”.)

Who owns America? Contrary to popular ‘Merican belief, the correct answer is not “We the People”. (See: We the people…are not God.) The correct answer is Christ. While that is the correct answer, it is not at this time in ‘Merican history a particularly popular answer, even (and often especially) among many self-identified “conservative Christians” […]

Men: Do you know more about sports than you do about Scripture?

What with gay rodeos going on in Arkansas; the NCAA, NFL, ESPN, and pretty much every other Sports Corporation wholly embracing (and enforcing) a pro-homosexual agenda), and things like American Pharoah’s “eternal glory” attaining win over the weekend, it’s pretty clear that Corporate-produced sports theater plays a major role in captivating, defining and controlling the […]

How “Judge Not!” Phony Christianity Has Fundamentally Transformed America

When it comes to “fundamentally transforming America” into a living hell of Corporate State power over (happily) ignorant and dependent masses, who needs Barack Obama when you have…biblically illiterate, apathetic and detached “conservative Christians”? Ever notice how “Christians”, including the most supposedly “conservative” in the camp, aren’t really all that into submitting to the clear truths of […]

American Pharoah Chases Down “Eternal Glory”(?)

“American Pharoah won the Belmont to achieve eternal glory as the first horse to win the Triple Crown since 1978.” That was the caption under the featured pic atop the home page of NBC Sports earlier today, and understandably so. I’m not aiming to go off on some sort of “Jesus-juking” move to seriously impugn the use […]

What if Christians are most responsible for our wrecked culture?

Like a kid who desperately wants to ignore the increasingly clear meaning of increasingly bad report cards, American “Christians” have been conditioned to give themselves a million fantastically childish ways out – a never-ending list of reasons to dismiss any and all reports of their persistent failure and betrayal of both the culture in which they’ve been placed and the Lord they […]

When the Bible gets hairy. (Or: Is it ever right for men to have long hair?)

  For some strange reason, I seem to be asked far more than most about the propriety (or impropriety) of men wearing long hair. Okay, so maybe my being asked about this fairly regularly really isn’t so strange, weird or surprising at all, since I just happen to have long hair myself. Very long hair, actually, and I […]

Corporate America Crowns Bruce Jenner King (and/or Queen) of Courage

Welcome to our Brave New America, where nothing is sane and nothing is safe…except for our pride, of course. No gender is safe. No concept is safe. No area of life is safe. No word is safe. And ultimately, no thought is safe. This tragic reality becomes more and more clear when we bother to consider […]

Is Bruce/”Caitlyn” Jenner the new face of American Christianity?

What does it look like when a culture dives deep into the Kool-Aid of “We the People” as god in practice? What does it look like when everything – beginning with the Nature of God and the necessity of His Word to life – is left open to our self-serving, self-centered interpretation (and perpetual re-interpretation)? A […]

Oh, the horror! The Duggars actually SPANK their children!

When the Forces of Pagan Progress and Tolerance smell Christian blood in the water, things happen. Weird things. Wacky things. Dangerously weird and wacky things. The Pagans get active. They get crazy crazier. Their eyes roll back, their mouths open wide, and they lose what little control they ever had as they’re overwhelmed and compelled […]

Duggar Drama and the Trans-Jennerism of American Culture

‘Bout this time last month, ‘Merica was treated to the news that Bruce Jenner had “transitioned” into a Republican Christian Woman. ‘Bout this time last week, news erupted on the Duggar Family front, centering on revelations of serious sexual sin on the part of Josh Duggar when he was in his mid-teens (over a decade […]

Please pray for the Duggars. This world REALLY hates them.

Like many of you, I’ve recently become aware of the very sad and challenging situation that has come to and through the Duggar family. As I’ve hopped from article to article trying to better understand things, it’s impossible not to notice the intense disdain for this family on the part of a loud and very powerful […]

Art, math, beauty, logic, law and economics…it’s all about Him.

Who is the personal source of perfect beauty, art, mathematics, language, drama, technology, astronomy, politics, and economics? He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation. For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him […]

The Vision of The Avengers and the Vision of Christianity

I was four when Star Wars happened and pretty much changed my world. About a year and a half later, Superman: The Movie hit the scene escorted by the promotional tagline, “You’ll believe a man can fly.” It was a magical time. From there, it was off to Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers, a reborn Star Trek and […]

Have the “We will not obey!” Christian “leaders” repented of their role in bringing us to this hellish condition in the first place?

Have you ever known someone who’s been pursuing a destructive path for a very long time and has been warned by many friends at many times all along the way that what they were doing was wrong, dangerous, and would ultimately lead to serious consequences? We’ve all experienced, witnessed or heard about such situations. You could say that we’ve all been […]

Happy Earth as the Lord’s Footstool Day!

Isn’t it awesome to live in the real world? And by “real world” I do not mean the real world as the world and worldly like to imagine and portray it to be. I mean the real world as it is. Really. More specifically, I mean the world – the creation – that is right […]

Toybox Christianity: Trading the comprehensive splendor of the Gospel for a cheap, shiny little plaything.

  First off, in a spirit of full disclosure and a God-given desire for the pursuit of truth, the whole truth, and nothin’ but the truth, I am compelled to report that: I love toys. Which is why I hate Toybox “Christianity”. Through its happy/smiley/fluffy promotion of rank, self-serving spiritual immaturity, apathy, and laziness, Toybox “Christianity” retards and destroys everything […]

Why treating Jesus like Voldemort is a really bad idea.

As we all know, long before Al Gore invented Global Warming, he invented the Internet. In the world-changing wake of the Internet, we’ve been graced with access to information that was unthinkable just fifty years ago. Al’s technological breakthrough launched the good, the bad, and the ugly of human creativity into a sort of light speed gear where […]

Roaring into Post-America Christianity

Christ is the perfection and embodiment of justified optimism. Satan is the epitome and lowly priest of delusional pessimism. The present, all-encompassing rule of Christ as King over every realm of His creation is the most invigorating, inspiring, optimism-igniting truth that can wash over the mind, spirit, and soul of man. This is why everything that the enemy does and […]

The devil only holds what we leave in his hands.

What does Satan own? What does the devil control? What does the enemy dominate? Only what we leave in his wicked, pathetic little hands. Put another way: The devil only holds what we let him keep. Our mission – our Great Commission – is to press the crown rights of King Jesus in every realm of […]

From Post-Christian America to Post-America Christianity

  How necessary is America to Christ? How necessary is America to Christians? How submissive to Christ as King is the modern American Corporate State? How has the pervasive, unquestioned Christian adoration of America been manipulated by those atop the U.S. Super State in order to distract, distort, and redirect Christian energy toward building and strengthening an increasingly obvious anti-Christian kingdom […]

The NCAA, the NFL, and why your grandkids will be pro-gay.

  Before we even get started on the latest installment of As The World Turns Gay, let’s start up front by acknowledging the one overarching rule as to how we are all told that we must handle the LGBTQ issue and pretty much any other culturally impactful subject. The Rule of rules is this: Anything but […]

A Cool Moment At The State Capitol

Howdy All, I hope that this post finds each of you well and that the Lord is moving you even in this moment toward deeper adoration, pursuit, and application of His nature. As many of you know, these past couple of weeks have been extraordinarily busy for me at my day job as a Legislative […]

Christ, Culture War, and the Gospel-fueled Great Commission

What is the true Gospel? What is the biblical Great Commission? And what is the inherent cultural impact of that Gospel-fueled Great Commission? I had the awesome privilege of once again joining the Stand Up for the Truth program for most of the hour’s broadcast, where we kicked around these big, important questions and had a blast […]

American Culture as the American Church’s Report Card

In light of the Gospel-fueled Great Commission of Jesus Christ (see: Matthew 28), the present condition of the American culture can be rightly described as a “report card” for the professing Christian church in America. And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore […]

Why treating God like Charlie Brown’s mom is a really bad idea.

For the vast majority of professing Christians in America, their claim to Christianity centers on little more than their claim to Christianity. Put another way, they are Christians because they say that they are Christians. Their emotions tell them so. Their pastors or priests tell them so. So it must be true. And if you even […]

Former PTA President Champions Playboy-style “Socialization”

I know that right now it can be hard to imagine winning. . It can be hard to imagine children and a culture freed from the State here in “the land of the free” and the home of the NSA. . But we will win. . By the grace of God through the Gospel-fueled Great Commission, His people […]

Are unending Rocky sequels a sign of God’s judgment upon us?

Are unending Rocky (and Rambo) sequels a sign of God’s judgment upon us? Is that even a question? Of course they are! And yes, if you haven’t heard already, this is not a drill: New Rocky and Rambo flicks are in the works…again. While there is no explicit mention of Rocky XII or Rambo: Thirteenth […]

The Beauty of Orcs

Ever been stopped in your tracks by the sheer beauty of an orc? Have you ever been compelled to pause and ponder their captivating and inspiring nature? Have you ever thought of how thankful you and the rest of the world should be for their particular flavor of loveliness? Of course, I’m not talking about physical comeliness or attractiveness here. Orcs […]

Exodus: Gods and Kings and Morons

As many have already noticed, there are some very cool stories in the Bible. Supernaturally cool and, better yet, true stories. One of the sweetest – yet most overlooked – aspects of the presentation of these supernaturally cool true stories by God in history and His thoughtful preservation of them in the loving, vivid detail of His Word is the fact that […]

The Gospel, the Great Commission, and the accomplished victory of Christ the King.

Whatever one’s views on  seasonal celebrations in general or Christmas in particular, two general truths that we are well served to not only remember but cherish are: Everything in Christ’s creation was made by, through, and for Him. . While unbelievers are inherently inclined to corrupt the good things throughout Christ’s creation, their acts of corruption are fleeting and temporary. […]

How to truly love (and really save) America.

What does love mean? What does it mean to love someone or something? Most of us would describe love first as an intense emotion or feeling of endearment toward someone or something. Most of us would describe loving a person or thing then in very subjective, emotion-driven terms. And most of us would therefore be very, […]

How has “Christianity” paved the way for gender chaos insanity?

  One of the easiest cultural “red (or pink) flags” for evangelical Christians to spot and critique is the plague of gender chaos that is even now sweeping over and radically redefining America before our eyes. Those advocating an “open”, “loving”, and “tolerant” approach to sexual identity and practice have had staggering success in reshaping and […]

Torture for Terrorists + Christians as Terrorists = Torture for Christians

[5/16/15: As open hostility toward biblical Christianity in America continues to ramp up, and with the enforced culture-wide embrace of sexual perversion building momentum, this seems like a useful post to revisit.] Okay, let’s see if we can connect the dots here: “Terror” is what the State and its tools tell us it is. It’s what ISIS, al-Qaeda, […]

Well color me cool and call me villainous!

Darth Vader. Agent Smith. Dracula. Lex Luthor, Kahn, and The Joker. If there’s one unifying theme purposefully captured and propelled through the culture by these wildly popular mythological figures, what might it be? Is it darkness? Perhaps evil? Nope. Not that these fictional folks aren’t known for being openly and proudly dark and evil. They […]

Corporate America to Your Children: Hating God and Embracing Homosexuality is GRRREAT!

  In Tony the Tiger Gets His Gay Stripes, we are treated to the latest in a looooooong running trend of corporate sponsored anti-Christian propaganda, this time in the form of Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes mascot “Tony the Tiger” doing his thing by smiling, posing, and telling us all in that warm, trusted and market-tested voice that hating […]

On October 31, are we walking dead or are we supernatural reformers?

So what is today to you? Is it Halloween, Reformation Day, or just another Friday? Most professing Christians would go with the first or the last. The middle option usually isn’t even on our radar. Most of us don’t even know that there is such a thing as Reformation Day…or that there is, in fact, right here […]

How has the professing church in America taught Dolly Parton to hate the Word of God?

Don’t blame Dolly for promoting emotion over Truth when it comes to touchy, hot-button issues like the embrace and promotion of homosexuality as a perfectly good and legitimate lifestyle. She’s just following the lead of the professing church in America. Before we get into the church-fueled movement away from Scripture and towards emotion as the […]

Everybody Expects…The Liberal Inquisition!

  “Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!” This was the launch phrase for my favorite recurring skit on Monty Python’s Flying Circus. In most of its appearances, The Inquisition would intrude suddenly on unrelated sketches in which one character, expressing frustration with another, would announce “I didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition!” Right on cue, the Inquisition […]

Sin? We have a pill for that.

  In a week dominated by discussions of depression, darkness, and despair in the wake of Robin Williams’ suicide, there’s been surprisingly little talk about another related and seemingly relevant d-word item: Drugs. As in “legal prescription medications”. As in very widely used and incredibly lucrative legal prescription medications. In the aftermath of Mr. Williams’ death […]

$ocialism, Bangerz, and the Wrath Of God in “The Great State of Tennessee”

You’d have to turn pretty hard and firmly away from the glaring clarity to miss the connection – the near-perfectly synchronized harmony – between Miley Cyrus’ Bangerz Tour stop in Nashville last night and the political scene unfolding on Primary Election Night across the “Great State of Tennessee”. All the dots are there, so close that they barely need to […]

Intro to Fire – The Power and Purpose of a Common Believer (Excerpt from “Fire Breathing Christians”)

This has been a long time in the making, but the day has finally come…

Posted here is the introduction from Fire Breathing Christians – The Common Believer’s Call to Reformation, Revival, and Revolution. The book will be released in late October. In the days leading up to launch, I will be posting excerpts from many of its 21 chapters so that you might get a feel for the material without having to go to the trouble or expense of purchasing a copy. Of course, if you like what you see, I fully expect you to buy at least three copies.

Everybody Expects…the Liberal Inquisition!

By now, everybody expects the Liberal Inquisition. Before one can even finish the thought preceding any pronouncement critical of anything “progressive”, they must resign themselves to the knowledge that, should they actually let their politically incorrect words fly, they will be branded.

The Scarlet R will be upon them.

Prostitution: Do it for the Children. (An ACORN Public Service Announcement)

The ACORN wars have gone guerilla on the right side (they’ve been operating that way on the left from the start). Earlier today, BigGovernment.com posted two shots of these lovely little painted ACORN PSAs as they were found in the Los Anges area.

With the recent outbreak of “ACORN Funded Prostitution Zone” signs popping up in, on and around L.A., it looks like area residents will be treated to some visual reminders of the sorts of activities promoted by ACORN not just in L.A., but from coast to coast across the nation.

Making Contact with the SETI Standard

“So what’s more likely? That an all-powerful, mysterious God created the universe, and decided not to give any proof of his existence? Or, that He simply doesn’t exist at all, and that we created Him, so that we wouldn’t have to feel so small and alone?”
