The Bully Pew Podcast

We're discussing the Satanic Temple display in the Iowa capitol building, and why the group's open advocacy for evil and their deception about their identity disqualifies the display for protection under the First Amendment.

We're discussing the nature and similarities of Abuse Inc. to Racism Inc. (Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton) and its intersection with world-pleasing pastors and churches rendered powerless to stand up to it.

David discusses the problem with starting online fights among Christians over low-tier issues as a way to build platform, using Gabe Rench's recent shenanigans over wine versus grape juice during communion. 

David discusses his personal operating rules for Christian engagement with other believers online.

David discusses "Mindustry" as it expresses itself online, particularly the correlation between those who seek broad audience appeal for their online platform and those who accept and often embrace the subjective epistemology of the charismatic movement.

David discusses his motivation for interviewing JD Hall and responds to some of the online accusations and unbiblical behavior witnessed in the wake of the interview.

David spends time discussing the protracted fight he is having with military leadership over the Constitutional liberties of military members, and how a sinful attack by Todd Wilhelm of the Wartb...

David is talking about getting beneath "debating the debate" with Christian Nationalism and figuring out the doctrine underneath the identifiable practical issues.

Even believers who are principally committed to assessing truth with their minds often have a point at which, after a strong enough emotional reaction, they switch, stop judging with their minds, and start judging with their feelings.

We're discussing the corrupt thinking that accompanies false doctrine, and why we need to mark and avoid false teachers and not just false doctrines.

We're discussing Russell Moore's vanity project book Losing Our Religion, which reinforces his membership as a court evangelical for the godless world.

We're discussing how moving the definition of the word "justice" effectively makes it seem like the Bible supports injustice.

We discuss Janet Mefferd's thorough Twitter takedown of yellow journalist Julie Roys, and how quickly JD Greear flip-flopped his reason for why the SBC should ignore churches with women pastors.

We're discussing the difference in strategy/approach to Christian Nationalism that stems from the differences between postmillennialism and premillennialism.

Rick Warren claims "common mission, not common confession" in his quest to overturn the SBC's disfellowshipping of Saddleback Church. This is not new but is the same unbiblical screed that church growth pragmatists have pushed for decades.

The series "The Chosen" is unsurprisingly gay-affirming. And your pastor should have seen it coming before endorsing the show. Note: I was very sick a few days ago, which is why there was no Protestia Tonight this week. Thanks for understanding!

While we appreciate the work being done by conservative Christian women in media and public engagement, Allie Beth Stuckey's recent response to online pushback reveals she is missing a piece of the complementarian puzzle as it relates to the reason women cannot preach.

The feeling of a divide between pastors and the pew finds its roots in the changes to pastoral ministry that have resulted from the professionalization of the job. 

We're digging into the "reality" that social media is a reality-twisting version of both social interaction and media, and how microcults can form in the digital alternate reality we now reside in.

What is it like to be in a church where you know you don't fit? David discusses what it is like to bear the sneaking suspicion that your church is scared of discernment.

We're talking about the business of Christian worship music, and why mega-movements like Hillsong, Bethel, and Elevation are not actually trying to change your church's doctrine as much as they are simply pushing bad doctrine because it sells.

We're discussing Easter and why churches feel the need to change everything about their Lord's Day services to accommodate CEO (Christmas and Easter only) "Christians."

David discusses some considerations when running the gauntlet of attempting to correct your pastor when they get something wrong.
