Episode 147: The Sin of Sodom and Setting the Record Straight on Recent Accusations of Heresy

First off, I had an AMAZING weekend with the most wonderful group of ladies at the Surge Conference over the weekend in Texas. I had a miraculous healing that will allow me to travel and I will share that next week!

But Monday was bizarre--as it always the case when we have spiritual triumphs, right? And so I was subjected to some false accusations about what I do and do not support, teach, and say in two private Facebook groups which cater to a grand total of 800 members, while what I actually say was twisted and misrepresented. In a classic case of "Church as usual" because the poster was an admin, there was an argument about whether the post should be removed which took shamefully too long in the (much) smaller group and is still ongoing in the second. He is still an admin in good standing in both groups but I am not going to name names. My goal here is to address the accusations of heresy because my primary ministry is to children and I cannot allow the accusations to scare parents away. Parents, of course, need to be careful. I understand that and so I am always very careful about what I present to their children. I have asked God to judge between them and I because I trust Him. This isn't the first time I have been lied about and slandered by people who don't fact check (and if they had fact checked and look at the current series I am teaching to children they would have simply rolled their eyes) and it won't be the last, but I am taking a page out of the playbook of Mister Rogers and stopping to address only those accusations which could end up hurting children.
