Remember when I reported that David French, Russell Moore, and Curtis Changโs political Bible study, (that was promoted by the @cccu, which includes schools like @biolau and @WheatonCollege) was an effort to launder left-wing views into the church and encourage Christians to vote for Democrats?
Part of my evidence for this was the fact that the After Party got its funding exclusively from hard left secular foundations like the Hewlett foundation, one of the largest funders of abortion in the world.
French, Moore, Chang, and their allies denied this was their aim. Though they acknowledged they accepted the money, they said they were not trying to promote Democrats to evangelical Christians.
Well, now the election is over. And the gambit to sell wolves to churches as acceptable candidates has been successful.
Now, Chang admits the truth.
The After Party was supported by new Democratic Senator from Kansas and wolf in sheepโs clothing, Adam Hamilton. And Chang in turn talks about Hamilton promoting the After Party and its materials in his church.
Reminder that Hamilton is an LGBTQ affirming false teacher who made protecting abortion a part of his campaign.
Obviously, this is also all relevant to the recent Christianity Today news, given how Moore used that publication to further promote the After Party.

I haven't said much about Wes because I truly want to have all the info first to have a complete and educated understanding of what even is going on with the plagiarism accusations.
That being said, I don't understand the hate coming at Mike for making his video. If he said nothing, people would hate on him for being a hypocrite. Not only was the video fair and loving, he's not showing partiality and is assessing the situation biblically, not covering it up... Something I wish certain... "pastors" ๐ง... would learn to do with their own friends who have caused serious harm to the church, only to have their lies and scandals covered up. These pastors would rather cover it up and defend the guilty before they'd ever actually grow a backbone and do the right thing.
All I know is that if I ever really messed up, as embarrassing and uncomfortable as it would be, I would rather have a friend like Mike to tell me the hard truth and hold me accountable in the fear of the Lord than a wolf feed me some nonsense garbage as they enable me to justify my sin.
Wes is a friend and I'm cheering him on. Wounds from a friend can be trusted.
Iโve waited to say more until Wes could give his update. But I feel morally compelled to share this now and hope it is a service to the Christian community and that things move in a more transparent direction soon with my friend, Wes Huff.

It amazes me how brutal, nasty, insulting, accusatory, and uncharitable so many people are when they critique Mike for gently pointing something out (with an obvious broken heart) they don't like. And they are ones claiming to represent Christ. Disagreement is fine but the way you do it matters.

Jesus shouldn't just be a supplement for your life.

After a late night elders meeting, it's official. Our church will be changing its name. We love the Calvary Chapel heritage we came from, and we're staying a part of the CCA, but we can't share a name with the original flagship CC as it heads in a direction that departs from Scripture (1 Tim 2:12).
We realize many Calvary Chapels do not affirm Costa Mesa's decision, and we're not implying they should change their names. This is simply the direction we believe God is leading us.
Our foundation is Christ, our authority is God's Word, and our new name will reflect that (1 Cor 3:11, 2 Tim 3:16). ๐๐ป
Major news out of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, the influential 9500-member Calvary Chapel church (CC) founded by Chuck Smith.
Pastor Char Broderson, grandson of Chuck Smith, announced on Sunday their intent to begin ordaining women pastors, in direct opposition to CC's distinctives.
A statement from the Calvary Chapel Association Heartland Regional Team describes these actions as "deeply grievous" and a departure from "from important convictions Pastor Chuck faithfully taught and modeled."
"As a regional team, we have serious concerns about the direction Costa Mesa has taken...Although disagreement over these doctrines does not, in itself, determine a personโs salvation, these are consequential matters of biblical interpretation, church order, and pastoral faithfulness.
We do NOT affirm the ordination of women as elders or pastors as biblically sound or consistent with the Calvary Chapel distinctives upheld by the Calvary Chapel Association."

if you can't explain what a woman, perhaps you shouldn't be a feminist.
I debated feminism with a womenโs rights activist who refused to say what a woman is. Can you guess her response?

Faith in Jesus leads to Flourishing.
In both the supernatural and the natural.
Supernaturally weโre born again, new creatures with new desires and a new trajectory of life.
Then in the natural we become aligned with the Designer of life and how He intended it to be lived.

Remember that time Josh Howerton copied an apology verbatim from Joby Martin and recited it from the pulpit?

Yes, and a lot of this is driven by Joshโs teaching on tithing. In a Feb 2025 sermon he taught that God *cannot* bless a person unless he gives the church the first 10% of his income.
He is mischaracterizing God and tying the Gospel to peopleโs bank accounts.
Fueling Josh Howertonโs request for people to possibly sell their houses to fund his church is his false teaching about the tithe.
In this message from Feb 2025, he describes what he calls a โgreed testโ โ something he says only mature Christians can get on board with. โBaby Christiansโ wonโt agree with him.
Josh teaches that God cannot bless a person unless He is made first in his life.
This is the prosperity gospel with a different coat of paint. Instead of the typical โgive to getโ message, itโs โgive or else you wonโt get.โ Heโs saying that tithing unlocks Godโs ability to bless you.
This undermines Godโs character and the doctrine of salvation.
God doesnโt require manโs permission, placement as โfirst,โ or hitting a specific dollar amount in order to bless a person. God is first by nature. Joshโs teaching relegates God to reactionary, rather than acknowledging His divine immutability.
If God cannot bless a person unless he makes Him first in his life, then how could Christโs death be efficacious toward sinners? Man did not put God first, and yet Christ still died for his sins. That is the greatest blessing God could ever offer, and it didnโt require manโs consent or prior obedience.
Not only is a mandatory tithe not taught for Christian believers today, but Paul completely undermines Josh's entire framework:
2 Corinthians 9:7-8
โEach one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.โ
Give freely as you decide in your heart. God is not restricted by your wallet.
Wow.
Pastors @howertonjosh and @jobymartin have apparently hired the same "Church Generosity Firm" Generis (kid you not on that name), a firm that promotes the "God-inspired visions" of any and all religious groups, to design their +$200M fundraising campaigns.

They bombed my home when I was 10, buried me under the rubble screaming โAllahu Akbar,โ put me in the hospital for months, then forced my family into an 8x10 bomb shelter for seven years
No power, no water, eating grass while snipers hunted us for the crime of being Christian.
Thatโs one. Want the rest of the list?

Charlie Kirk wasnโt the only member of the body of Christ who was m*rdered on Sept 10,2025 โฆ. We remembered Charlie but not this man. Now you can remember him.
This manโs name is Assur and heโs from Syria but lived in France. He preached Christ boldly in love to Muslims from his wheelchair and was st@bbed to death by a Muslim the same day Charlie was m*rdered.
The world didnโt know his name but our God did. See you soon, brother.
Now you know his name ๐ฉท๐๐ป
