035 Creflo Dollar Was Wrong About Money, Danish Evangelist Moonlights as Gun Runner, and More Jul 10, 2022

Show notes

In this episode we discuss three articles we found in the feeds. First, we talk about the disingenuous ways some Christians talk about trans folks. Next, we take a few minutes to marvel at the Danish evangelist asylum seeker who is accused of gun running. Last we do a lot of head shaking at Creflo Dollar, a prosperity gospel preacher, who, go figure, had teachings about tithing which were wrong! But don’t worry, he won’t pay anybody back he has manipulated over the years. Wouldn’t want to set precedence. #groanWebsite: https://churchislame.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/churchislameTwitter: https://twitter.com/churchislameTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@churchislameEmail us at: churchislamepodcast@gmail.com You can only heal the things you admit are broken.

034 Boebert Ignores Separation of Church and State, James Dobson and End Times are Coming... Again Jul 06, 2022

Show notes

This episode we continue our experiment with slamming through a bunch of stupid. This episode accidentally follows the theme of Christians trying to take over the world! We have people saying the Church should control the government, more misguided "pro-life" silliness, nationalism from the pulpit, and more. We look forward to the new Heaven and the new Earth so that this nonsense stops. You can only heal the things you admit are broken.

033 JD Hall Gets Fired, Pastor Sues Victim, SCOTUS Fibs to Support Forced Prayer Jul 04, 2022

Show notes

In this episode we race through a bunch of broken things. The theme of this episode is the failures of Christian leaders. An exiled pastor (again), a pastor accused of abuse who sues his accusers, even more abuse scandals, and more. You can probably guess that this one gets us a bit riled up. Maybe one day Christian leaders will stop giving up reasons to get angry. Maybe.

032 Jeremiah Lowe, Son of Pastor John B. Lowe II accused of Abuse Jul 04, 2022

Show notes

We unfortunately revisit a church where it seems not only was the pastor a sexual predator, but his son has followed in his footsteps. We rage about the fact that this was not as much of a surprise at it should be. Lastly, we analyze the effects that these kinds of scandals have on the church: how it breaks the body of believers by shattering trust and ultimately profaning the name of God in the eyes of those outside of it.

031 Confess Jesus As Lord…and That Are Bad Jun 29, 2022

Show notes

This episode we talk about the weirdness that is the Cristian Reformed Church's decision to codify their opposition to the LGBT community in their faith confession. This is absurd for many reasons, but such is the world we live in. This promises to divide the CRC along these lines, and this is after a past schism or this same issue which split the Reformed Church. It seems like with the conversation still happening in the greater Church, this is someone trying to take their ball and go home.

029 Southern Baptist Convention Starts the Process of Dealing with Sexual Abuse Jun 15, 2022

Show notes

This episode is a bit of a mixed bag for us. On the one hand, the steps that the SBC has been taking to try to repair themselves is encouraging. However, it also feels like it isn't going far enough, fast enough. We all have to make up our own minds on that one. We just hope that this slow pace doesn't come to a stop. The women of Jesus' church deserve the best from their beloved churches. The work the SBC is now undertaking will require a lot of encouragement even from outside the denomination.

026 - Kirk Cameron Hates Public School Jun 11, 2022

Show notes

In this episode we take a look at the strange obsession Christians seem to have with homeschooling. It seems that Kirk Cameron has even done a documentary about he “awakening” that people are having. We discuss some of the problems we have with this phenomenon, namely the insular nature of it and the audacity that many have thinking that they are qualified to teach without any training.Website: https://churchislame.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/churchislame Twitter: https://twitter.com/churchislame TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@churchislame Email us at: churchislamepodcast@gmail.com You can only heal the things you admit are broken.

023 - Indiana Church Applauds Pastor Who Sexually Abused Child Jun 01, 2022

Show notes

This episode we stare into the vast chasm of absurdity of an Indiana pastor who had the unmitigated gall to confess his adultery to his congregation. Of course he left out that this was with a minor. And his victim was present for this “confession.” You can watch video of this shameful mess on Facebook.Website: https://churchislame.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/churchislameTwitter: https://twitter.com/churchislameTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@churchislameEmail us at: churchislamepodcast@gmail.com You can only heal the things you admit are broken.

022 - 700 Documented Cases of Sexual Abuse in the SBC May 28, 2022

Show notes

This episode we shake our heads at the Southern Baptist Conference. They recently released a 288 page report shedding light on over 700 alleged cases of sexual abuse and cover ups. It seems that the SBC has lost it’s way, but maybe this can be a chance to heal. Let’s just hope they think first about the long line of victims.Website: https://churchislame.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/churchislameTwitter: https://twitter.com/churchislameTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@churchislameEmail us at: churchislamepodcast@gmail.com You can only heal the things you admit are broken.
