the United Methodist Church is no longer "united". They should drop it from their title.

there is only the illusion of choice of candidates other than Pres Trump. All others are globalist backed by corporations. Haley and DeSantis are undoubtedly part of the uniparty and do not care about the people, not one bit. Haley is woke in her theology.

this woman clearly missed it on this past Sundays video, when Jenkins explained the situation with what the actors said. She fails to acknowledge Jenkins explained some comments made on social media against the owner of the pride flag, were very hateful. The actors clarified their remarks & explained they were referring only to the sources of the hatred & vitriol & not to other commentators or fans. She has cherry picked the facts & should do better. she is not well informed on this & regarding ESG...to only hear about it now....what has she been doing the past 2 years??? please find a better caliber of guest speakers.

diversity+ proximity= conflict. it's okay for America and Americans to want their country to remains Homogeneous. the political class seems to not listen to the plurality of people here saying that they don't want to see the White populations disappear. and that's what the 1965 hartsellar immigration bill did. it replaced White Americans

What does 'gender inclusive' mean? Both genders should be included most of the time.

I enjoy Issues, Etc. and Relevant Radio and agree with Lutheran and Catholic teachings regarding abortion. Goes without saying, but I said it. BUT: Relevant Radio and especially its Drew Mariani, have become relentlessly smug and self satisfied in pushing this movie, Johnson, and Bratcher, the actress who plays her. Mariani has been swimming (I say drowning) in his own purity, and there's no doubt to me he's been strenuously helping these two reinvent themselves to make money and further their "careers." All three have become insufferable. Bratcher was living on my taxpayer dime when she became pregnant, and she's molded that into a career enhancing story. I haven't listened to Todd's interview here of Johnson, and I won't. I fear he'll be further feeding Johnson's about to burst ego just as Mariani has been doing so deliriously. It seems the sniping against each other by Lutherans and Catholics within their respective radio shows has ceased long enough for them to unite in wh

Pastor Harrison did a lot to make it difficult to keep some rural congregations going. With small memberships we were grateful for all the deacons that served us with Word and Sacraments.

Love mediocre, Wolfmueller. Love grappling with the text, Wolfmueller. He would make a great pastor. ;)
