Sex-Trafficking, Evangelical “Colonialism”, and the Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit

Last updated on: January 25, 2013 at 12:17 pm By Guest Contributor

In preparing to teach my students about Jesus’ hard saying about the “blasphemy against the Holy Spirit” (Mark 3:29) this week, I couldn’t help but make the connection to the recent, bizarre criticism of Evangelical efforts to end the sex-trafficking trade.

The Cold & Broken ‘Hallelujah’ of the Evangelical Subculture

Last updated on: September 12, 2025 at 2:03 pm By Nick Rynerson

Holy-cleanup of Culture It’s not a secret that there is a lot of bad, bad art being made by Christians. Art that, like a senator’s campaign ad, disposes of quality and creativity to allow for an airtight theological agenda. And to be fair, this is not just a “Christian” problem. Turn on the radio and Lady Gaga and her really, really, really rich producers will tell you that you were “Born This Way”. But the sad trend that I see... Read more
