Corrections

How we handle mistakes, and how to tell us about one.

What we publish

The Burning Bush Daily gathers headlines from trusted ministries and newsrooms and links to the original articles. The headline and the reporting belong to the publisher. The one-sentence summary under each headline is written by an AI model and attributes its claims to the source. Summaries can be wrong, so the linked article is always what counts.

The “This Day in Church History” entries are drawn from Philip Schaff’s History of the Christian Church, J. H. Merle d’Aubigné’s History of the Reformation and John Howie’s The Scots Worthies; each entry is checked against the passage it comes from and names its book and section. Later Reformed and Presbyterian history comes from This Day in Presbyterian History (PCA Historical Center); each entry is checked against its post and links to it. Stories on figures from the last four centuries come from their own ministries, Reformed publications, historical societies and published obituaries, are checked claim by claim against those sources, and list and link them.

When we get something wrong

• If a summary misstates the article, we correct it or remove the story.
• If a history entry has a wrong name, date or fact, we fix it against the source.
• If a story should not have run, we take it down.

The paper is updated several times a day, so a correction normally appears in the next edition. We do not quietly change a story's meaning. If a correction changes what a story says, we fix it plainly.

Errors in the original reporting

If the mistake is in the publisher's own article, please contact that publisher; only they can correct their reporting. If they publish a correction, we will reflect it here.

Reporting an error

Please tell us the headline, what is wrong and, if you can, a source that shows the correct information.
