U.S.—Skillet’s lead vocalist and two-time Grammy award-nominated John Cooper has finally come out of the shadows to admit that he is still a Christian despite the fact that it is the current year.
“I just couldn’t hide this part of myself any longer,” said Cooper while fighting back tears in a hard-hitting, incisive interview with Relevant Magazine, the magazine where people like Cooper typically go first to come clean about how much they still love an inerrant Bible, the institutional church, and a Holy God who judges sin.
“I have to come clean. I just can’t live a lie anymore. I just can’t. I am not an Exvangelical. I am not deconstructing. I love the church. I can do no other. God help me.”
The scandalous disclosure that he is still a Christian who continues to have a high view of Scripture, the Church, and Jesus comes at a particularly bad time for the musician as he has recently faced backlash for refusing to play at venues mandating proof of vaccination.
It remains to be seen at publishing time if other Christian artists will be inspired by this bold announcement to likewise come out of the shadows and claim the identifier of "still Christian."

It took no time at all for them to defraud Tim Walz's government of billions through Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The government didn't even ask why they needed the money; they just forked it over. The invasion people have been anticipating has been happening right under our noses all along."
"The Democratic Party would be winning in a landslide if it weren't for that confounded Constitution," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "We have so many great ideas on how to win, but people keep saying things like 'Hey, that's illegal' or 'That's literally a crime.' It's becoming disheartening."
"This is way easier," said Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger. "We're tackling the real issue, which is Republicans being allowed to vote at all. There will be no more campaigning, no more counting ballots. That stuff is such a hassle anyway."
