You Think It’s Hot Here?
If you think it’s hot this summer, think again. For some, the afterlife will be the hottest spot in the universe, whether they’re in Sheol, Gehenna, or Hades.

Growing up without a father
In the 1960s, I was the boy who was embarrassed about growing up without a father in small-town Mt Sterling, Kentucky. Divorce was far less common at the time, and all of the kids I knew in Mt Sterling Elementary School had fathers, or at least the ones about whom I knew anything about their …
James Talarico: a representative of failing ‘progressive’ Christianity, and a hypocrite to boot
In a move reminiscent of Democratic congressional candidate Amy McGrath Hnderson being caught on tape, fund raising in Massachusetts for a congressional seat in the Bluegrass State, saying “I am further left, I am more progressive, than anyone in the state of Kentucky,” Texas Democratic Senate nominee was caught on tape saying, in a 2022 …
Cortisol Nation: How Fear Became America’s Operating System
America has become a 24-hour cortisol factory—financial panic, political theater, algorithmic outrage, and endless crisis propaganda pumped straight into the nervous system like an IV drip of anxiety. We are chemically exhausted, spiritually distracted, and psychologically manipulated into living as though Satan runs the universe and God is merely filing paperwork in the background. Fear has become America’s unofficial state religion: fear of collapse, fear of irrelevance, fear of war, fear of each other. But fear is just misplaced faith. It is confidence that darkness will win. The modern machine profits from keeping people terrified because frightened populations are easier to control, easier to sell to, and easier to herd. Scripture’s command to “fear not” was never naive optimism—it was spiritual defiance. The real divide today is not left versus right; it is those discipled by fear versus those anchored in faith.
Exploring the Existence of God: Three Compelling Reasons
The existence of God has been a topic of profound contemplation throughout human history. While opinions on the matter may differ, there are three powerful reasons that provide a compelling case for the existence of a divine being.
The Lodge, the Labyrinth, and the Tower of Babel Rebuilt How Secret Societies, Spiritual Power, and Human Pride Converge
Secret societies do not need literal magic rings to shape history. Their real power lies in symbols, secrecy, and the ancient promise of hidden knowledge. From Solomon’s legendary seal to modern surveillance systems and technocratic elites, the temptation remains unchanged: to gain wisdom without God, power without accountability, and immortality without redemption. The Tower of Babel was never destroyed—it was upgraded. Today’s builders wear tailored suits instead of priestly robes, but the serpent’s oldest lie still echoes through the corridors of power: “You shall be as gods.”
Our good friends on the left are ‘alarmed’ at the notion of a religious revival and America’s long religious history
The First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States specifies: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of …
UFO Disclosure, the Father of Lies, and the Oldest Psyop in History
For most people, unexplained aerial phenomena are a curiosity. For students of prophecy and biblical theology, they raise a more sobering question: what if the greatest deception in history arrives under the banner of enlightenment, scientific progress, and planetary unity?
Disclosure Season and the Oldest Lie in the Book
Every few decades, humanity rediscovers wonder, dusts it off, and calls it progress. This summer, the marketing machine will do its part with The Day of Disclosure, courtesy of Steven Spielberg—and right on cue, we’ll all be invited to stare into the sky and ask if something smarter than us is finally ready to step in and fix the mess. It’s a great story. It’s also not a new one.
The MAGA Trap: How Narrative Warfare Turns Fringe into a Political Weapon
They’re not rolling tanks into MAGA headquarters. They don’t have to. This is 5th generation warfare—the kind where the battlefield is your head and the objective is reputation, not terrain. No explosions, no uniforms, just a steady drip of images and narratives that quietly decide who looks sane and who looks like they need adult supervision. And right now, one of the cleanest plays on the board is simple: take the fringe, staple it to the mainstream, and let human psychology do the rest.
The Separation Of Media And State
The freedom of the press is enshrined in the very first amendment for a good reason. It wasn’t haphazardly placed there. Our Founders realized that in order to control the urges of the powerful, who run government, to grow even more powerful, a free press was needed to keep tabs on the ruling class.
A very liberal United Church of Christ bishop wants to throw out major parts of the Bible
One of the basic, underlying themes of Christianity, across all of the various denominations, is that the Bible is the word of God, given to authors who were divinely inspired by the Lord to bring his word to us mere, fallible mortals. Some Christians — former President Joe Biden, a (supposedly) devout and dedicated Catholic …
What’s Your Plumb Line?
Were the good ol’ days as good as we remember them? What do we worship in a secular world? We need to find a new plumb line.
Bless Their Hearts (And Their Caps Lock)
Sean answers his mail, more graciously than should be expected.
Faith in the In-Between
In the silent, confusing days after the Crucifixion, the disciples wrestled with grief, fear, and doubt—yet God was already preparing the resurrection they could not yet see.
The Seriousness of the Surge in Catholic Conversions
As a somewhat frequent participant in Catholic discussions on Twitter — I still refuse to call it 𝕏, the dumbest rebranding of the 21st century — I’ve been seeing a ton of posts about the surge in Catholic converts. Apparently, the algorithms see what we like, and send more of the same our way! Many …
The Atheists of 250 A.D.
The year is 250 A.D. It’s Good Friday. Although, technically, there is no “Good Friday.” Not for another hundred years.
Who Was Jesus, Really? The Mystery Behind ‘Son of Man’ and ‘Son of God
Who was Jesus? It is a question that has echoed across centuries, whispered in quiet prayer, debated in universities, and argued in the streets. For Christians, the answer is not a simple label but a profound tension held together in Scripture: Jesus is both the Son of Man and the Son of God. And the confusion surrounding these titles is not accidental—it is the result of trying to compress a divine mystery into human categories.
Good News for American Evangelical Protestants
There’s always good news for Bible-based Evangelicals in the Good News of Lord Jesus Christ. His Resurrection is celebrated every Sunday. And, there’s good news in numbers, despite the gloom and doom data painting a Post-Christian America and death spiral for Western Civilization. Bible-based Evangelical Protestants are growing – not as much as non-Believers and way less than possible, but growing. Growing is good.
Hosanna!
It’s Palm Sunday, or Passion Sunday, a day of celebration! But why do we celebrate the soon-to-take-place Crucifixion of our Lord?
