Here once again is Pastor Gabe.

Thank you, Becky, who is not with me this week as we had planned on her to be here. But as we shared with you last week, a friend of ours recently lost her dad very unexpectedly to a heart attack and Becky went with her to the funeral.

They're traveling back to East Texas tomorrow, so pray for a safe journey. God willing, Becky will be back on with me next week when we do a countdown of the top 10 most watched what videos for the year.

Today we're looking at the 40 biggest events that happened in 2022 or some of the biggest headlines in Christianity, mostly affecting America. There's going to be a few things on this list that Christians in other parts of the world are going.

I don't know anything about that, nor do I even care. Sure. And there are things that are happening in other parts of the world. I wish I knew more about. I wish I was better read on the protests that are going on in Iran and in China and how those things have been affecting Christians there or how the churches have been responding to things like that.

But that's some news that I need to catch up on myself. We'll have some of those things, some of those international stories will be mentioned on this particular list, but you'll notice most of these are affecting the Western English speaking world.

Now, even though we're going through 40 of the biggest headlines of the year, I still got some questions to answer. Being Friday, we respond to questions from the listeners and you can send those questions to when we understand the text at gmail .com.

This first one comes from Neil in South Carolina. He says, hello, Pastor Gabe and Becky, if present. And of course he's not. But I'll I'll pass this email on to her. I hope this email finds everyone well in body and spirit.

Would you have any recommendations for podcasts that I could add to my rotation in 2023? I currently have what the dividing line and wretched radio. Are there any Becky listens to? Although I doubt she has time.

May the Lord bless your family and ministry in the new year. Thank you so much, Neil. Well, I'm still a regular listener of Renewing Your Mind with R .C. Sproul, which updates daily. Now, if you're looking for news, the world and everything in it from World Magazine is really good.

Justin Bullington is doing a great job with Theo Bros. I was privileged to be a special guest on his program earlier this year for good discussions about confusing doctrinal topics. I like the pactum, although I don't always agree with the host, for example, concerning their defense of Thomas Aquinas or their critical spirit against biblicalism.

But but otherwise, great podcast. And of course, just thinking with Daryl Harrison and Virgil Walker remains one of the best some runners up the MacArthur Center podcast, the Hard Men podcast with Eric Kahn, Cooper Stuff with John Cooper, Relatable with Ali Beth Stuckey, Walking Worthy with Dustin Binge and the Truth Be Known podcast with Nathaniel Jolly and Eki Tepsi Pornkai.

And I've got another podcast to recommend here in just a moment, a special guest that will join me in just a few minutes. When in doubt, open up the Rethnet app and hit play. If you can't think of anything else to listen to, download that Reformation Network app.

It's always an easy find. Becky does not have any additional recommendations as she listens pretty much the same podcast that I listen to. If she ventures out to listen to anything else, she usually hates it.

This next question comes from Brian in Arizona. Dear Pastor Gabe, when you do your list of the 40 biggest news stories of the year, could you cite some of your sources as to how you decided which stories were truly the biggest?

Thanks in advance, Brian. Well, the number one source that I rely upon to kind of go through the most popular stories of the year is the Religion News Association. I used to actually be a member of this organization when I was in Christian Radio, and every year they take votes from the members as to the biggest stories of the year.

And the top 10 list is always right on. I don't know that I've ever disagreed with what they narrow down as being the 10 biggest stories to happen in Christianity or in religion in general that year. I also read the Gospel Coalition's list.

Colin Hansen, who does his 10 biggest stories every year. I don't recommend the Gospel Coalition for a lot of stuff, but I do read Colin's list. The publisher's weekly top religion stories of 2022, Christianity Today, puts together several different lists.

And so I'll read their stories, although I don't recommend that publication either. But that's just a few of the lists that I'll look at to narrow down these particular stories. So let's go ahead and look at them.

Over the course of the next 50 minutes here, we're going to review the 40 biggest Christian headlines of the year, and we're going to go in order. So it's not like the last headline is going to be the biggest story of the year.

We're going to start January 1 and go all the way to December 31. Though we're not at December 31 yet, but I'm just hedging my bets that there's not going to be another big story tomorrow that's going to miss out on this list.

So let's begin. January 1, the first big story of the year happened on the first day of the year, as 43 congregations of the Reformed Church in America, the RCA, split from the national denomination because it had approved the ordination of LGBTQ clergy.

The new group, the splinter group off of the RCA, is called the Alliance of Reformed Churches, or the ARC. So we got a new denomination this year. The second biggest news story of the year happened on January the 14th, just two weeks later, when the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case of an ex-football coach who had been fired because he was praying at midfield after football games.

Now, the way this came about was when the games were over, the teams would meet at midfield and shake hands, but the coach, whose name was Joe Kennedy, would kneel and say a prayer of thanks. And this kind of developed into the players joining him, even the players from the opposing.

Team.

Well, the school tried to encourage Kennedy to go off and pray by himself. Don't pray with the students, but you can continue your practice over there on that side of the field or something like that.

Well, Kennedy declined and said he was going to continue to do the practice the way that he had always done it. And the school put him on paid leave and eventually sued him. And the lower courts sided with the school.

But this went all the way up to the Supreme Court again on January 14th. The Supreme Court decided to hear it in June. They ruled in Kennedy's favor, and it was announced just a couple of months ago that he would be back to coaching this next year.

By the way, all of this happened in the Seattle area, in the Pacific Northwest. So praise the Lord for a victory on this freedom of religion case. One of the big conservative cases that the Supreme Court made a decision on this past.

June.

Of course, there was a bigger case than that, which, you know, will be on this list. It'll be coming up a little bit later on. January the 16th. This next story is a little bit gross. Michael Todd, a pastor in Tulsa, Oklahoma, had a video go viral when he spit in his hand and rubbed the spit on the face of one of the members of his congregation.

Now, he was illustrating something that Jesus did in Mark 8, 23, when he spit on the eyes of a blind man and healed him, restored his vision. Todd was saying that sometimes receiving a vision from God can get nasty.

Well, the clip went viral, like I said, and eventually led to Todd apologizing for the gross gesture. And then that made a headline itself. His apology just a couple of days later, there was other weirdness from Michael Todd that went viral over the course of the year.

But that was that was by far the grossest one. Who is this guy? Who is Michael Todd? And to answer this question, I turned to a friend of mine who's watched more Todd sermons than I have. On the line is Chris from All Things Theology.

What's up, brother?

Doing good.

Thank you for having me on your show.

Yes. So I saw that you were just covering something about Michael Todd yesterday. What was the weird thing he was doing this week?

Yeah, there's a lot of weird stuff that comes out of Transformation Church. But just really representing God. Funny enough, we'll probably get into that in a bit. But re-explaining the Trinity and with the comparison to the computer, the father is the 1 .0 version, Jesus is the 2 .0, and the spirit is 3 .0.

Oh, boy.

Extreme wackiness.

We need the St. Patrick video in here. That's modalism, Patrick.

Exactly. Absolutely.

Modemism. I like that. I'm trying too hard for a joke there, I think.

That's good.

So you mentioned his church, Transformation Church. You said it's the name of it?

That's correct.

When did it start? What's it about? Where did Michael Todd come from?

Yeah, so I'm not sure when it started per se, but before. Michael Todd was a gentleman by the name of Gary McIntosh. He comes out of Oral Roberts University, Azuzu Conferences. So if you're familiar with a lot of the extreme charismaticism, that's right up Gary McIntosh's.

Alley.

Yeah, Oral Roberts right there in Tulsa.

Correct. And so he then plants this church, I believe, which is Transformation Church. Yeah, I think it's actually existed for 15 years.

Okay.

Actually, at this point, probably 20 plus years. Around 2015, it's in a multi-ethnic area. I think that's actually important because in 2015, he sees Michael Todd. For whatever reason, says, hey, you're called the pastor.

And Michael Todd's like, no, God didn't tell you that. It was a bit of hesitance on Michael Todd's end. And so that's where Michael Todd comes into the picture. Michael Todd actually got a lot of fame and notoriety from his story from being a producer.

That's what he used to do. So music, art, something like that. He's actually very talented when it comes to that.

Sure, okay.

So that's where Michael Todd comes into the picture.

He does a lot of gimmicks with his sermons. I've noticed.

Yes.

I remember seeing something earlier in the year where he was eating junk food and a whole pile of junk food on stage.

Yes.

Every sermon has to have a prop. I mean, he was talking about adultery. So, of course, you got to get a bed up on stage to talk about adultery rather than just preach. I really hope he doesn't try to preach the resurrection one day because that could be.

Dangerous. Now, speaking of that, does he really have any understanding of the gospel at all? Have you caught any of that from his sermons?

The only time you hear the gospel preached is at the end of the sermon when he's doing the center prayer. So it's by default, right? But explaining the gospel, you won't hear much of sin. You won't hear much of God's wrath.

You won't hear anything on repentance, atonement, what the cross actually satisfied, right? I mean, because he doesn't talk about God's wrath. So the only time he actually gets to the gospel is in very shallow.

Yeah, we did a sermon on titan. Come to Jesus. It's kind of like, wait, hold on. What's the connection there?

Right.

What's the gospel connection?

Yeah.

So very little gospel. It's a lot of self-help, feel better, moral therapeutic deism kind of theology that comes out of his pulpit.

Is there any connection with the new apostolic reformation at all? Like, who are some of the people in Michael Todd's circles?

So he has done stuff with he doesn't do a lot of connection stuff, but I've seen him like with pictures with Joel Osteen, Stephen Furtick. So that mainly seems to be his influences.

I saw one with Craig Groeschel.

Okay.

So, yeah. I call Michael Todd the quasi prosperity gospel stuff.

Okay.

Because in one statement, he'll say something that's actually true. You know, he's talked about the abuses of Malachi three, right? So man, Rob God, right? He's like, you know that we've, man, I've heard this all my life and people have misquoted this verse and he'll be right.

But then he'll go on to teach something like that's exactly what the prosperity gospel.

Right.

So I think Michael Todd is dangerous because he's confused. I don't think he's actually intentionally trying to create false doctrine.

Right.

He seems like a nice guy.

So not a charlatan.

Yeah.

He just, man, I think he has the right, maybe motivations or attentions, but he's just not trained.

Okay. Yeah.

There were some things about him. It kind of seems Stephen Furtick esque to me only with a lot more stage props.

Yeah.

You know, he's a great speaker. I mean, he holds your attention. Like, even when you're critiquing him, you're like, man, this guy's gifted, but communication is not a qualification of an elder.

That's right. Must be able to teach, meaning that he has to, he has to teach the word of God.

Absolutely.

Very much scripture at all in some of the stuff that he's doing.

So there's different versions of Michael Todd part in the modalism analogy.

Okay.

But in one sermon, you'll have a lot of scripture, a lot of scripture. But in then another sermon, it's like no scripture, like one scripture. And then what I call the Christian Ted talk for the rest of the time is just talking.

But even when he does give scripture, it's a lot of Jesus. Like he cannot properly handle God's word. Like you see when he teaches, even when he does give the scripture, it's like, man, no, you completely missed it.

Like if you'd have read the next verse, you would have seen how, you know, so.

So he's either reading himself into the text or he's trying to get the audience to read themselves into the text.

Yeah.

Or to make his prop fit, like what the verse is saying. I see, you know, yeah, the prop has to, you got to kind of get it close enough to what the Bible saying, you know what I mean?

Right.

He had an idea for a prop and then he kind of gets a text to support it. So yes, makes sense.

He talked about gluttony, right?

That might've been the one with all the junk food on stage.

Is that the one?

Yes, that is. So the sermon prop for that, he puts a lot of food on him, right? And just shows like, oh, I got all this food on me. Oh man, see, well, that's not actually gluttony. I mean, that's just a lot of food on you.

I mean, that's not a sin.

It's foolish.

I mean, it's silly, you know, but it's not a sin. So even his sermon prop was not gluttony.

Yeah.

So that just shows you like just how he'll try to do the bait and switch with his props.

Sure. So we got this guy has books that are on the bestseller list at Mardels. Like when you walk into Mardels and they have their top selling books, Michael Todd's been on there, I think for more than a year that I've been walking into Mardels.

I've been seeing his face. So very dangerous theology, very much prosperity, kind of like neo prosperity, you might consider.

It.

That's right. I definitely would consider it the new age version of prosperity gospel. He's not quite in your face, creflo dollar money running on the stage, right?

Yeah.

Talk about money coming. He's not that far out, but he's not someone in our camp, right? So reformed when it comes to the gospel.

So yeah.

Definitely. Well, Chris, give us a plug for your podcast. Where can people find you?

Yeah, they can find me on all things theology. Any streaming podcast app also on YouTube. Just search that and I should come up.

All right. Thank you, brother. Appreciate you joining me today.

Hey, thank you for having me.

The number four news item of the year was on January the 21st with the release of Redeeming Love in theaters. Now, this was based on a Christian fiction book that is based on the biblical book of Hosea.

When the film came out, it was extremely controversial because though it was touted as a Christian movie, there were sex scenes in the film. So I did a what video on this talking about the book and the movie and why Christians should have nothing to do with it.

Here's the video that I did. Redeeming Love is a historical romance by Francine Rivers published in 91. Rivers says that when she became a Christian, she began to adapt true Bible stories into fictional romance.

Redeeming Love is a retelling of Hosea set in the American Old West. In the Bible, God told Hosea, go take for yourself a wife of whoredom for the land commits great whoredom by forsaking the Lord. So we married a harlot named Gomer who represented Israel's unfaithfulness.

Hosea prophesied of the judgment of God who is faithful to his promise, though his people were not faithful to him. The only similarities Redeeming Love has to the Bible story are that the main character's last name is Hosea and he marries a prostitute.

Gomer is replaced by Angel, a victim of sex abuse her whole life. Gomer and Israel were not victims. Angel catches the eye of Michael Hosea who hears God tell him to marry her. After getting married, Angel runs away and goes back to prostitution, but Michael forgives her and Angel learns true love.

The story is now a movie pitched as a Christian film, though it contains nudity and lengthy sex scenes. Do not be entertained by sin Christ gave His life to redeem you from. The Bible says, flee from sexual immorality.

You were bought with a price, so glorify God in your body, even in what you set before your eyes. Redeeming Love is a perversion of Scripture and of people. Call out to the Lord, Psalm 44, 26. Redeem us for the sake of your steadfast love.

When we understand the text. The number five story of the year was on January the 30th with the murder of Christians in Nigeria. Now, there were several headlines over the course of the year about the murder of Christians in that particular country.

It began with 48 Christians that were killed in an attack on January the 30th. More than 30 homes were burned and farm produce destroyed. Christian Solidarity Worldwide reported later on in the year. In June, a gunman killed at least 50 people at a church in southwestern Nigeria, opening fire on worshipers both inside and outside the building in a coordinated attack before escaping the scene.

And then later on in September, it was estimated that several dozen Christians had been murdered and 6000 displaced in terrorist attacks in Nigeria's middle belt as international advocates are urging the U .S. State Department to cite Nigeria for religious liberty violations.

Pray for the Christians that are undergoing such severe persecution in the nation of Nigeria. Number six on February the 2nd, Megan Basham exposed evangelical leaders for partnering with the federal government to spread false covid propaganda to churches.

Guys like Ed Stetzer, Tim Keller, Russell Moore, Rick Warren and many others hosted these podcasts or public forums in which they would interview the director for the National Institute of Health, Francis Collins, on why Christians needed to mask up or get vaccinated to honor Jesus.

Here is Megan Basham with more on this story.

So just as you saw Anthony Fauci out everywhere in the secular media, Francis Collins has been specifically dispatched. And this wasn't really denied. It was kind of openly covered in Time magazine and some other outlets that he was openly dispatched to convince Christians and church members to get on board with the government's covid policies.

Things like masking, shutting your churches, staying home, abiding by lockdowns and especially getting vaccinated. All of those things. So he made the rounds to just a number of very high profile pastors, high profile media outlets and ministries sort of preaching this message of follow the government guidelines regarding covid.

And very particularly, he presented it as a gospel issue. Follow the guidelines to show that you love your neighbor, to show that you're following Jesus. And he was presented in that way as someone who is just like you, a Christian brother.

And that's why you should listen to him. So that was kind of the nature of the story. But there's a little bit more to Francis Collins than that. And that was the part of the story that was not presented on all of these podcasts and all of these media interviews.

And that's the fact that Francis Collins, though he professes to be pro-life, has directed record level funding to fetal tissue research. And that has included some experimentation at the University of Pittsburgh that involved grafting the scalps of aborted infants onto lab rats.

It involved harvesting the organs of full term babies, 40, 42 weeks that had been aborted. There were some charges. This is not confirmed, but some doctors have alleged that that University of Pittsburgh research involved extracting the ureters, kidneys and a couple other organs from still living infants.

So some fairly horrific stuff. So to wrap up this somewhat long winded answer, there's also another element of Francis Collins.

Work.

And that is the fact that he launched an initiative in which he declared himself an LGBT ally and advocate. And that funding went to something called sexual and gender minority research. And one of those projects has involved directing eight million dollars to a research grant that gave opposite sex hormones to children as young as eight and mastectomies to girls as young as 13.

So these are the things that all of these pastors and Christian ministries did not tell their audiences and their church members about Francis Collins.

Now, I wish that this meant the end of guys like Ed Stetzer, Russell Moore, Rick Warren, these people that push this false narrative and heaped legalism onto Christians by saying that you have to do these things in order to be a good Christian.

But sadly, those people are still in power and still doing their thing. And they are continuing to lie to Christians unchecked, not facing the consequences of their actions. But they will have to stand before the Lord and give an account.

So I do pray for their repentance, that they would be removed from influence here on Earth, but that they would also repent before they have to stand before God in judgment. May it be a reminder to all of us to pursue the truth and not add to the word of God, but understand what he says and how to apply these things rightly, according to Scripture.

Thanks to Megan Basham for her great reporting. She had several big stories this year. When I asked her what was the biggest, she said the one on February 2 definitely stirred the most pots. We had Megan on the podcast along with her husband, Brian, earlier this year when Becky and I did our interview with the couple.

I don't remember which episode that was. But Brian, if you'll recall, works for World Magazine. He's the guy that you see doing the World Watch News updates on YouTube. So thankful to have this dynamic duo in journalism.

The number seven story of the year was on March the 3rd. Now, this was after Russia invaded Ukraine, which happened on February the 24th, if memory.

Serves.

But right at the beginning of March, videos went viral of Christians in bomb shelters praying and singing songs. In particular, there was a video of Ukrainian Christians praying Psalm 31 from bomb shelters as Russia declared war on Ukraine.

Now, there were many other stories that happened over the course of the year as well as a result of this war. One of the stories that I read just recently is that 400 Baptist churches have been lost as a result of this war.

And there are people, Christians that are missing, missionaries that have been displaced and so on. So continue to pray for Christians, not just in Ukraine, but even Christians in Russia, some who have been forced to fight in this war that don't want to.

There are Christians on both sides. Pray that the Lord will protect. Let me read to you here from Psalm 31 verses 1 through 5. In you, O Yahweh, I have taken refuge. Never let me be ashamed. In your righteousness, protect me.

Incline your ear to me. Deliver me quickly. Be to me a rock of strength, a fortress to save me. For you are my high rock and my fortress. For your name's sake, you will lead me and guide me. You will bring me out of the net which they have secretly laid for me.

For you are my strength. Into your hand I commit my spirit. You have ransomed me, O Yahweh, God of truth. And indeed, it is through the death of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that we have been ransomed, bought with a price.

Your sins have been paid for by the precious blood of Jesus. And so, follow him. Worship the Lord. And he will deliver you out of your distresses. Pray for those Christians that are being persecuted in different parts of the world or going through war-torn areas that the Lord will protect.

We look forward to that day that he delivers us ultimately into his peaceful kingdom where these things will be no more. The number eight story of the year was with Grove City College that became a battleground in the woke war.

One publication covered the story like this. Since 2020, concerns about wokeness, a term used for those aware of systemic racism and recently often connected to critical race theory, have pitted Christians against one another in the pews and in the classroom.

Grove City College, an hour north of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has been one of those battleground areas. On February the 16th, the college's board of trustees stated that it categorically rejected critical race theory and similar critical schools of thought as antithetical to GCC's mission, really antithetical to Christianity.

John Fee, professor of American history at Messiah College in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, said the following. What's happening at Grove City is what's happening within the conservative movement in America.

And indeed, critical theory is dividing Christians. It doesn't unite anybody. It divides us. These things are contrary to what we are taught in Scripture. In 1 Timothy 6, beginning in verse 3, the apostle Paul warned Timothy, if anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the doctrine conforming to godliness, he is conceited, understanding nothing, but having a morbid interest in controversial questions and disputes about words out of which arise envy, strife, slander, evil suspicions, and constant friction between men of depraved mind and deprived of the truth.

That is a perfect description of the kind of havoc that these critical race theory discussions have been causing in churches and in Christian colleges all over the place. Grove City College has been one of those places that's been a battleground, and it has been indeed an example of the kinds of arguments and fights that have been happening even in various churches in America.

If you've got critical race theory in your congregation, get it out. It's not uniting you. It is dividing your congregation. And as I know Daryl Harrison and Virgil Walker have discussed on Just Thinking, critical race theory, wokeness, is racism.

The number nine story of the year, March 21st, Twitter suspends the Babylon Bee over a joke about Rachel Levine. Rachel Levine, of course, whose birth name was Richard Levine, he's a male pretending to be a woman.

He's the American pediatrician who has served as the United States Assistant Secretary for Health since March 26th of last year and is also a four star admiral in the United States Public Health Service Commission Corps.

Well, the Babylon Bee made a joke about Rachel Richard Levine and said or declared him to be man of the year. Again, this is a man who's pretending to be a woman, and it's required of all of us that we have to refer to him as a woman and even use feminine pronouns.

Well, the Babylon Bee, which is a satire site, called Rachel Levine man of the year, and they got banned from Twitter for that. Well, that which happened on March the 21st set off a chain of events that would eventually lead to Elon Musk buying Twitter.

Musk, who's a huge Babylon Bee fan, so he bought the social media giant for over 40 million dollars. Sorry, not 40 million, 40 billion dollars. I don't remember exactly what the amount was, but then had the Babylon Bee reinstated all of these events going on over the course of this year and from a satire site that was started by Christians.

It's amazing the kinds of waves that the Babylon Bee makes in the public sphere. Now, even though the Babylon Bee was restored on Twitter and Adam Ford, he was another one. There have been many others who were blocked or banned by Twitter over the course of this year that had their accounts restored when Elon Musk took over.

But I am not one of them. As you probably know, I was banned back in June because I was proclaiming something that the Bible says. I listed several sins and said that the Bible says these sins are worthy of death.

But then I said, turn to the Lord Jesus Christ and live. And I was banned for that because one of the sins that I listed was homosexuality. I appealed my ban even since Elon took over. But Twitter has said they're not going to restore me.

They said that I was using my account to incite violence and hatred. So even though a new wave of, quote unquote, free speech has come into the Twitterverse, it's still Elon's version of free speech. And he's not a Christian.

So that doesn't allow for sharing what the Bible says and then the gospel. My appreciation to the Babylon Bee and also Creation News for covering that story about me when all of that happened. The next story was on March the 22nd, 10th biggest headline of the year, Brian Houston.

Resigned from Hillsong, one of the founding pastors of Hillsong Church in Sydney, Australia. And because of sexual abuse allegations made against him and against staff and stuff that's been going on even in the history of the church, he ultimately resigned on March the 22nd.

The court proceedings involving Brian Houston just recently started, and I haven't been keeping up with any of that. But I'm sure as we get into 2023, we're going to be hearing about the results of that particular trial.

The very next day, March the 23rd, Ketanji Brown Jackson refused to define what a woman is. Do you remember this? Seems like this story was so long ago. But no, it was just earlier this year. Ketanji Brown Jackson, the Supreme Court justice nominee from Joe Biden.

Of course, she has to go before the Senate and get asked all kinds of questions. And it was Senator Marsha Blackburn that asked her this question.

Can you provide a definition for the word woman?

Can I provide a definition?

Yeah.

I can't.

You can't?

Not in this context. I'm not a biologist.

The meaning of the word woman is so unclear and controversial that you can't give me a definition.

Oh, my goodness.

That has to be one of the most absurd moments in the history of American government, somewhere in the top 10. The only reason I wouldn't put it at number one is just in case there's some other event that I can't think of.

That is ridiculous that she cannot say that a woman is an adult human female. How hard is that? How can she as a Supreme Court justice try cases that have to do with women if she doesn't know what a woman is?
