America’s Black Robe Regiment: When Ministers Founded a Nation (Part 2 of 2)

From Elijah on Mount Carmel to Nathan confronting David, Scripture provides an unbroken pattern of God’s servants speaking truth to civil authorities. […]
When Prophets Go Silent: The Biblical Mandate for Political Engagement (Part 1 of 2)

If the Left thinks that will bring an end to people saying his name or talking about the good that he did in his life, they are seriously dead wrong. While I’ve never been one to ride anyone’s coattails, I’m […]
Has God Changed His Mind About Gender?
When you compromise on God’s design for church leadership, you don’t just get women in pulpits – you get the complete destruction of biblical authority.

The Sunday Morning Post…
Welcome to the Sunday Morning post – where we take a breather from the political madness and focus on better things, if but for a moment or two. This week we’re cranking this feature off with a classic gospel tune from The Happy Goodman Family – “The Sweetest Song I Know.” When I was growing […]
Weekly Recap: When Religion Celebrates Creation Over Creator
Editor’s Note: This post represents one of those “why I do what I do” articles – explaining why independent bloggers like Average Bubba-Unfiltered keep hammering away at the liberal lunacy infecting modern Christianity. Sometimes folks need to understand the mission behind the message, especially when we’re calling out sacred cows that others won’t touch. […]
