Hey @MrAndyNgo You’re an embarrassment @aprilajoyr
A Lexington, Ky. social media influencer has gone viral on X for presenting herself as a moderate, married Christian woman who is voting for Kamala. But her online activism is about Democrat politics and trans ideology, particularly through her trans nonbinary partner who has been emulating her dress and style. They involve their young children in their trans social media influencing as well.

I need 100 styrofoam coolers, ice to go with them, water, non perishable food, toilet paper and paper towels, soap, women’s products, toothpaste, diapers and wipes — all of these to go with the one cooler. Who can help me? I want to get it to 100 households by early next week.

This was really healing to listen to actually…. Coming out of a church that is deeply problematic for the way they align with NAR + Christian Nationalism- I think I’d flatten a lot in order to reconcile power systems/harm.
NEW EPISODE: @TaylorMatthewD returns to the VCW to talk about his new book "The Violent Take It By Force" (out on October 1st). We chat about independent Charismatics and how this group has overtaken the Religious Right in America and more. Listen in! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

I was deeply honored to speak w/ @muzach & @DaveJLester about my forthcoming book, how charismatic prophecy works, the Trumpian populist hostile takeover of elite evangelicalism, & the ongoing menace of Christian election denialism for the future of American democracy. ☑️ it out!

It was so much fun hearing my little brother on this week's episode. Great conversation though honestly. It was a really helpful follow on to @mattnightingale 's interview with @mattjwarner .
NEW EPISODE: Honored to have @mattjwarner join us to tell his story about being fired from Grace College for what he describes as unspoken political expectations. @HoardPaul also joins to talk about implicit vs explicit bias and more. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Here is your answer, @_nomadic_soul to the question about John MacArthur’s teaching on all women submitting to all men on @VCWPod MacArthur puts the qualifier of “in all churches.” He’s using the English literal understanding + assuming that it’s a universal, all-time law command. And it just happens to fit the needs for patriarchal culture. (John Piper in Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood taught that all women should submit to all men in ALL places in the world.)
John MacArthur, 2019: “Christianity is no excuse to disrupt life in a social level. And it essentially means that women are to maintain submission to men in all churches in all times. Now there's no lack of clarity.” gty.org/library/sermons-libr…

I was honored to be featured on the Veterans of Culture Wars Podcast @VCWPod last week. Dave & Zach asked poignant questions about my experiences at MacArthur’s church + deconstruction & I opened up a lil more than normal. We also talked about Butker, of course! L i n k ⬇️

Really enjoyed listening to this after following @PastorTrey05 (and of course this pod) on here for awhile. And it prompted me to finally start "Theologizin Bigger" which I'm enjoying so far.
NEW EPISODE: @PastorTrey05 stops by the VCW hall to talk about his new book, "Theologizin Bigger". We discuss theology and imagination, inerrancy, the Ark that is in Kentucky and much more. Listen in! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

“If Disneyland and Andraé Crouch had a child, it would be Carman.” - @drleahpayne on the @VCWPod. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this episode. @muzach, you are insane, and I love it so much. Geeking out along with all of you. 🥰

I had a great time on @vcwpod - it was a wide-ranging conversation with @DaveJLester and @muzach -@muzach's joyous research into Carman's conversion story was a highlight that will stick with me!

If you experienced the #CCM milieu in the 80’s-90’s this interview with @drleahpayne is great. (Get the book!) But the ending is off the chain. Give a listen. – at Nashville, TN
Tomorrow: the show returns with @drleahpayne and the biggest reveal in the history of Veterans of Culture Wars. Don't miss it.
