the Remnant
Volunteer with CAN

Love the Church enough to check its work

Every Sunday, thousands of sermons go out with nobody checking the claims. We're building a team that does: researchers, writers, fact-checkers and debaters who trace what gets said from the stage back to the text. It's free, it's volunteer, and it loves the Church.

Five ways to help

Researcher

Trace claims, quotes and symbols back to their earliest source. Add markers to the Concordance and feed the claims ledger behind every episode.

Philosophy, theology, history, culture · 2 to 3 hrs a week

Editor & Writer

Tighten Sunday Scorecard scripts, shape Countdown segments, and write Remnant lessons people can actually read.

Story people, editors, ex-church staff · 2 to 3 hrs a week

QA & Fact-check

Check every episode before it goes out: verse references, quotes, score math, names and pronunciations. The last set of eyes.

Detail obsessives · 1 to 2 hrs per episode

Claim Staker

Take a claim and argue it from all three chairs: the supporter, the one on the fence, and the critic. Then write the pastor's best defense and answer it.

Debaters and apologists · 1 to 2 hrs a week

Scholar Review Panel

Review the method and the sources, never the verdicts: the scoring rubric, the original-language terms, Concordance study topics.

Grad students and faculty · about 2 hrs a month
