  I Need a Hero

  Sep 25, 202641 min

  This week, we will be taking a closer look at a series from this summer on the Grace Hour Show about Flawed Heroes. From the absurd to the maddening, we will discuss what does and does not qualify as a character flaw-and the idea for a new segment for the podcast that was inspired in large part from this series. CONTENT WARNING: This episode does contain conversation regarding self-image, mental health issues, and self-harm. Please only listen with care.

  In Conversation with Melissa

  Sep 11, 202649 min

  This week I was delighted to be joined on the podcast by Melissa. Melissa's time with "the ministry" began in Wiscasset under Carl and wove it's way through South Berwick and Lenox before her journey led her away for a time. She then found herself back in Baltimore with "the ministry" under Tom Schaller. In this conversation we talk about her life experiences and explore the differences in being with The Bible Speaks under Carl Stevens and Greater Grace under Tom Schaller. We also talk about what leaving looked like, and all the lessons she has learned along the way. Melissa is kind, warm, and insightful, and had so many wonderful and wise things to share-I hope you all enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

  Predators in the Pews

  Aug 28, 202652 min

  In this episode, we will be taking a look at what the church's response should be when a convicted child offender wants to join their faith community, or when a member of their faith community is convicted of an egregious crime against children and wants to remain an active part of the faith community. Specifically, we will be looking at this through the lens of how church leaders in Pawley's Island Community Church and Greater Grace World Outreach handled these requests-and what the results of those decisions were. We will also be looking at what organizations such as GRACE recommend in response to these situations. CONTENT WARNING: this episode contains multiple references to sexual crimes against children. Please take care if you choose to listen. Reporting credit for this episode goes to: Tim Whitaker of Tim Whitaker Speaks, The Post & Courier News/SC, WCBD News/SC, WMBF News/SC, ABC4 News/Charleston, and Fox News/Baltimore.

  The Devil's in the Details

  Aug 14, 202648 min

  Here we are-we have arrived at the big split of May 2005 at the Chicago conference after over a year of chaos, division, battles for power, and failed attempts at peacemaking. In this episode, we will not be looking at just the Chicago conference itself, but the lens through which the lead up and result was framed by Baltimore leaders. We will also explore how this was just the beginning of a pattern that has continued to this day.

  For this episode I am joined by a special guest who is not only a great friend of this podcast but an excellent writer in her own right. Becka from the Grumpy Bex blog is here to help me break down the recent Doctrinal Clarification presented by Greater Grace. We discuss what they clarified, what they didn't, and all the missed opportunities and pitfalls we spotted along the way. This episode is a bit longer than most, but it was a great conversation and one I hope you all enjoy listening to as much as we enjoyed having. Becka's work can be found on Substack at https://substack.com/@grumpybex -be sure to go give her a follow, as she's doing phenomenal work!
