Evangelical roundup for December 19, 2022

John Fea   |  December 19, 2022

Moody Memorial Church, Chicago, 1930s

What is happening in Evangelical Land?

The Church of England Evangelical Council gives thanks.

More on the National Association of Evangelicals support for an expanded child tax credit. Jim Walls on it here.

Roger Olson on fundamentalism.

Evangelical Christianity is growing in France.

Phil Vischer on Trump trading cards:

The fact that D. Trump got people to give him $4.5M in 12 hours to "own" digital trading cards of… himself… is the most depressing news today since discovering the new owners of VeggieTales are learning about VeggieTales not by watching the videos, but by reading Wikipedia.

NBA coaches pray.

Are Christians leaving evangelical churches because of politics?

Collin Hansen on Tim Keller.

Franklin Graham on Amy Grant:

Yes, we are to love God & love each other. But if we love God, we will seek to obey His Word. Jesus told us, “If you love Me, keep My commandments” (John 14:15). God defines what is sin, not us; & His Word is clear that homosexuality is sin.

The BBC on Christian nationalism.

48 student baptisms in one day at a Georgia evangelical church.

A worship song on “The Voice.”

Gordon College settles a case concerning an LGBTQ-affirming professor.

Evangel University lands a $1 million grant.

Blast from the past:

I have no idea what this means:

Before the erroneous ‘keep religion out of politics’ defense is taken seriously on the marriage issue, its advocates should answer whether they’ll keep their politics out of religion.

After all, marriage is fundamentally a religious institution, not a government institution.

The review of Liberty University’s Title IX policies is complete.

Albert Mohler is going after American Girl Dolls.

Jenna Ellis is now an expert on women in the church:

There are two basic objections to this, both wrong for the same reason: they’re unbiblical.

1. Subtracting from scripture: “Women can be pastors.”

2. Adding to scripture: “Women can’t speak to men.”

No, women cannot *hold authority over* men in the church (or the home).

Who are these Marxists, fascist, communists and totalitarians?

You are a threat to the Marxists, fascists, communists, and other totalitarians who seek to destroy America.
You are a threat to the Progressive agenda.
If you welcome the label of being a threat to evil, we can make a difference. @conservmillen @TPUSA #AMFEST2022 pic.twitter.com/TWhOC9DnbP

Listen as we talk about just how important religion can be to helping us get through the tough times we face and how our Founding Father's knew that. https://t.co/VrfPPKhkdT

— Jack Hibbs (@RealJackHibbs) December 18, 2022

“Satan is a gradualist”:

It has been said that Satan is a gradualist. It's far more effective for him to move slowly piece by piece rather than to shock or wake up his prey. It appears that down under the antics of the New World order and the coming Great Reset is underway.https://t.co/tGSjvzHbSZ

Hypocrisy alert.

Ben Roethlisberger talks with Tim Clinton of James Dobson Family Talk.

Who is James Robison referring to here? Who is this “somebody” who represents the gates of hell?:

I'm not going to sit back and let somebody take this country straight into darkness. If I can stand against the gates of hell, I'm going to push back against their effect and not allow the gates of hell to prevail on my watch.

— James Robison (@revjamesrobison) December 16, 2022

Why does this keep happening in the Southern Baptist Convention?

The true danger of spiritual drift is that we abandon the gospel and find ourselves under the judgment of God.
