"By action of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) Board of Directors (BOD) at its May 17 meeting in St. Louis, the generations-old “historic debt” of the Concordia University System (CUS) — and of its predecessor, the Board for Higher Education — has been retired."

In Last-Minute Move, Southern Baptist Convention Supports Anti-Christian Racial Identity

Southern Baptists continue to implode as they cater to SJWs. I sure hope the LCMS isn’t as foolish, but looking at the "anti-racism" resolution on the docket…it looks like we probably are.

Hulu’s new children’s series “The Bravest Knight” will follow a mixed-race gay couple and their adopted 10-year-old daughter.

The ELCA’s female “bishop” and the Hindu CEO of LIRS continue to work hand in hand.

Write to District President Hardy to make sure that the LCMS does not commend this partisan liberal lobbying group. (He is the chairman of the committee that has put forth a resolution to commend LIRS…in which LIRS is called a "ministry"?!?) https://twitter.com/ELCA/status/1138769789630013441

Support for Black Lives Matter cost church its polling place designation, lawsuit claims

First, a Unitarian Universalist building is not a "church." Second, what do you expect will happen when you support a violent organization that has a proven history of intimidating law-abiding citizens. https://www.vox.com/identities/2019/6/11/18661920/unitarian-church-fresno-california-black-lives-matter-aclu-lawsuit
