Evangelical Dark Web is a YouTube channel that gets consistent views on most videos it puts out. I use the 10% metric and the overwhelming majority of videos receive 10% subscriber view count ratio, a standard YouTube success gauge. However, the channel is not built on any one video outkicking the channel’s coverage. Instead, it’s a consistent and dedicated audience. This was not a year, like 2024, with multiple flashy scandals like David Platt, Steve Lawson, or Alistair Begg (we broke that story by the way). 2025 was quite the opposite of that, I would say. So, without further ado, here are the channel’s top videos.
10. Andrew Isker Calls Out Tim Keller, Dispensationalism On Tucker Carlson
Andrew Isker plus Tucker Carlson made for a good video, and so does reexamining the legacy of Tim Keller with a fresh perspective of comparison to Rick Warren which was insightful. 3,533 views.
9. Newsboys Rocked By Michael Tait Homosexuality Scandal
Michael Tait won our Fake and Gay award accordingly. This was a risky video for the channel but got 3,556 views, 3000 coming in the first 3 days. Risk can pay off for a channel that doesn’t cover many CCM topics. But I wanted to confront the homosexuality aspect of the story when I knew other outlets would focus more on the pederasty, but I refuse to delineate the two, as this was common gay behavior.
8. The Gospel Coalition Defends JD Greear, David Platt
The Gospel Coalition is good for YouTube, something I had long questioned. Evangelical Dark Web is perhaps the most anti-David Platt channel on YouTube. Combined and providing fresh coverage on a hot story, this video amassed 3,852 views.
7. Jack Hibbs vs Reformed Theology
Jack Hibbs is a major figure and a strong thumbnail led to this video being an instant success. 3,929 views.
6. Steve Lawson Reportedly Repents
Steve Lawson was good for YouTube, put bluntly. But a positive update and conclusion to the scandal was what I wanted to see and was happy to report. 4,424 views.
5. James White Embarrasses Himself In Sermon
I’m surprised at this video’s success, since it was a little more YouTube drama than I’m accustom to making. It wasn’t even my best James White video of the year. I preferred the one where he wants me spanked. (Ironically, I think my next video to ring in the new year will be on James White’s latest crash out.) 5,069 views.
4. Joel Webbon’s Past Sins Become Public
3. Debunking John Hagee’s Christian Zionism
The John Hagee substitute for a livestream was not an instant success, taking 2 days to surpass the median range, starting from the bottom. It garnered 6,141 in 2025 and is credited with 131 new subscribers.
2. JD Greear Is Getting Unmasked By Documentary
Covering the JD Greear scandal garnered 8,667 views in 2025, This video wente hard for the first month before leveling off and steading the view count growth.
1. Kirk Cameron vs Christian Zionism
This video was an instant success that reached the 9th all time video on the channel in just a few months. Total view count stood at 27,899 at year’s end with 26000 coming in the first 15 days.
2024 had more firery stories but 2025 certainly had more variety. Speaking out against Christian Zionism, The Gospel Coalition
