January 2023 EDW Report

Every month, Evangelical Dark Web publishes a report on the previous month so as to provide an overview of what’s going on in the church at-large and this ministry. January was a phenomenal month, one of the best months this ministry has ever had. It was a busy news month, but also one where legacy content thrived post Christmas.

A major feud emerged in Conservative Inc. between Steven Crowder and the Daily Wire. Much of Conservative Inc. was reluctant to talk about this issue, allowing our coverage greater market share.

Of course, January ended with the controversy surrounding Andy Stanley’s views on homsexulity dominating the Christian news cycle.

One of the biggest drivers was the NFL playoffs which brought many people to our research on the He Gets Us Campaign.

Additionally the debate between Doug Wilson and Jared Moore regarding concupiscence in regards to homosexuality got many Christians thinking about the nature of sin and applying it to real life. Doug Wilson’s incidental Side B theology is the result of his creative lexicon and theology, but Jared Moore ultimately stood on more solid ground.

Discernment

Evangelical Dark Web published a verdict on Tony Evans and Andy Stanley. In February we already published a verdict on Jennie Allen. Supporters of Evangelical Dark Web were informed on the next three verdicts we would published which began with Allen.

Videos

The Andy Stanley video on homosexuality will be a staple evergreen for the channel as it continues to grow in views. We have some major plans for videos including the He Gets Us Campaign, a livestream with Joel Webbon, and continuing coverage on news in Evangelicalism.

Book Announcement

I happy to announce that I am working on a book titled Winning Not Winsome. The manuscript is completed. I have a publisher lined up. Prayers appreciated on this process.

“Patreon” System

Evangelical Dark Web has a tier subscription service. A lot of competitors have this (a term of endearment in this case) and for good reason. The purpose of this is not to make the founder of this site rich. This is a labor of love and will remain that way. The fog of Spiritual Warfare persists for those of us on the ground. We need accurate reporting that mainstream Christian websites are not providing either because they simp for celebrities, sold out to liberalism, or both. Consider joining. This will allow access to all the Evangelical Dark Web has to offer, like polls for the next discernment verdict.

Soli Deo Gloria,
