The sky really is bluer on the other side.

@BlackLabelAdvsr Are you projecting?

[Ruth Graham @publicroad]

Christianity Today has seen about half its staff quit or laid off in the last 14 mos. Former employees told me that new business leaders have intervened in editorial decisions & are effectively abandoning the outlet's commitment to independent journalism. https://t.co/Q4Iy7v5mQB

If kids got raped by clowns as often as they get raped by youth pastors it would be against the law to take your kids to the circus.

How about instead of livestreaming an execution, we livestream the opening of the remaining Epstein files?

[Christa Brown @ChristaBrown777]

Livestreaming an execution is barbaric. And no amount of Bible verses will change that.

@BrettMiller3540 @NeilShenvi Wow. They should step aside.

[C.S. Edds @CodyEdds]

The support we’ve received these last few weeks has been amazing. From our own church, our family, our friends, strangers, fellow Reformed Baptists, and former CRBC members and elders. Thank you all!

Part of the reason we began speaking out was to help others find the courage to do so, and they have. You’ll be reading about them soon. In the meantime, I’ll let the articles and the other families speak for themselves. There is so much more to tell about our own story, and so many other stories to tell! I can’t wait to see what God does, and continues to do.

[C.S. Edds @CodyEdds]

Not for vindication, but for the sake of others who are or may be abused in the future, we/others have begun to share the truth about what’s been going on under Nathan White and Cem Brinckley at CRBC, and what the association has refused to do about it.

“The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.”
-Proverbs 18:17

The story of CRBC on Lookout Mountain:

1. The first case that was stated was Nathan’s, and some have said you should listen to the church. The attachments here include everything that was communicated to us and to the church. Listen to the church.

2. The second case was never examined, until now. However, to bring a charge against an elder requires 2-3 witnesses. Here is the Redbergs’ witness to Nathan’s sin:

3. The second case was never examined, until now. However, to bring a charge against an elder requires 2-3 witnesses. Here is the Valdez’s witness to Nathan’s sin:

4. The second case is ours and it exposes the sins of CRBC leadership. Included here is a third witness, Jason:

Conclusion
There are multiple other witnesses, including his church planter and a former elder. The charges are not exhaustive, nor are the witnesses. May this bring justice and truth to light.

The Botkin Stay-At-Home Daughters Finally Didn’t Stay At Home and Sincerely Apologize For Their Whacked Theology. What’s ‘Daddy’ Botkin Up to These Days? New TWW post.@ThouArtTheMan @defendthesheep https://t.co/0iLjsPlT4V

@ThouArtTheMan I wish I could say this surprises me about someone quickly returning to the pulpit.

[Todd Wilhelm @ThouArtTheMan]

On March 15, 2024, a Sovereign Grace Churches pastor, Russell Tusing, was arrested and charged with sexual battery (FVA) and child molestation (FVA) of his daughter. His denomination removed him from his job and the local church shut down soon after because of alleged embezzlement by Tusing. On December 15, 2025 Tusing had a hearing where he pled guilty to a lesser charge and received 10 years probation. Last Wednesday, Tusing was back in the pulpit of another church! Attached is a clip from his hour-long sermon and also a partial transcript of two of his children testifying at the court hearing.

🇺🇸 Trump’s final appeal in his rape case is DENIED.

He becomes the first President in U.S. History who’s been found legally responsible for sexual assault in a federal civil court.

@JustLessieLane @Protestia A mistake happens once. This was not an oopsy daisy, but an ongoing willful choice.
