This week on the UC cast we take one more look back at Asbury to examine a couple of things going on behind the scenes. Then we discuss Rick Warrens interview with Russell Moore explaining Saddle Back's recent actions. Finally we discuss the Moral actions of Minnesota man who killed a pedophile.
Also we would like to make a couple of clarifications for this weeks episode. Scooter would like to convey his deepest of Respect for Dr. John MacArthur. He feels that he made a couple of statements that he thought in retrospect might be found to be a little disrespectful, and he did not intend them in that manner. Secondly I feel that a couple of my statements may easily be misconstrued into thinking that I support women Pastors , or Sunday School teachers ( mixed with men ) . I DO NOT, I stand the only way I can , and that is with Scripture 1Tim 2:12

[Kyle The Fan joins me this week , and wants us to make it abundantly clear ( to spite my joking otherwise ) his deep love for all Catholics. ]Scooter couldn't join us this week, so "The Fan" stepped up to the plate to help me go through some moral dilemmas this week , and a couple of news stories . After listening back to this podcast I realized that it could be misconstrued that we think that morality changes based on conditions such as how much money is involved . Just to be very clear on this we DO NOT, right is always right, and wrong is always wrong. May God bless you all in 2023
