Evangelical roundup for October 10, 2022

John Fea   |  October 10, 2022

What is happing in Evangelical land?

Anderson Cooper talks with Bret Barber, president of the Southern Baptist Convention.

French evangelicals and abuse victims.

When an American evangelical helped a family observe Sukkot.

Russell Moore on Loretta Lynn.

Justin Giboney drops what the kids call a “truth bomb”:

Somebody tell @JoelWBerry this is why a lot of Black Christians have a problem with the GOP.

The spirit and attitude behind messages like this are nothing but racism. Not hard to understand why we don’t trust him to make policy concerning our lives. https://t.co/tirMqE6BUf

Not all Christian colleges are the same.

An evangelical reads the Bible with Muslims.

Julie Roys’s open letter to John MacArthur.

The Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission calls on Congress to defend the Dreamers.

How the leaders of the Texas GOP speak to their Christian supporters.

Shane Claiborne does not celebrate Columbus Day

Tim Keller on Dietrich Bonhoeffer:

Waiting his execution for plotting against Hitler, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was able to call the death of a Christian “the supreme festival on the road to freedom.” Many here on twitter think he was a fool to believe this. He was not–not at all.

.Christian colleges and critical race theory.

Blast from the past:

Liberty University football coach Hugh Freeze talked to ESPN’s Paul Finebaum about his conversion experience.

Michael Flynn, Greg Locke, Eric Trump, and Roger Stone want to “re-awaken America.”

Take it back from what?:

Just another step toward taking back our country. Don’t forget to vote this November! #midterms @TheHillhttps://t.co/MZbWa9vN7x

Evangelicals who are “allies” of Israel

Jenna Ellis does not like David French’s “take” on Putin:

This is possibly the most asinine and David Frenchiest take yet.

Under Putin’s regime, actual Christians cannot evangelize and are persecuted. Yet because Putin is not a globalist, somehow that translates in Frenchism to “Christian Nationalist.” https://t.co/0fxLunwF9M

Trump court evangelical David Brody on Kanye West:

Conservative commentators need to stop making Kanye West the next Aristotle. Yeah he says some things that makes sense but don’t put him on this pedestal. That’s what they do all the time. They see someone that upsets the liberals and he becomes their instant hero.

— David Brody (@DBrodyReports) October 9, 2022

He’s also turning on Putin lovers in his ranks:

I’m sick and tired of the, “Far-Right” giving Putin a pass on his evil Stalinist ways. Look, Zelensky is no angel and all this American money to Ukraine is ludicrous but when you essentially look the other way on Putin, you become Putin apologists. Shameful & way out of balance!

If you love “hot youth pastors” you may want this sticker.

Should five-year-old kids listen to Al Mohler? Al Mohler has some thoughts.

Hibbs v. Newsom:

Newsom has used the Bible as he is shoving his pro-death agenda into the faces of Christians. He's twisting the scriptures.

The Bible says people will do this in the last days to justify evil and bring swift destruction upon themselves.https://t.co/hdmuZKGlH5
