    The Devil's in the Details

    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. Constructive feedback, stories, or just a hello can be sent via email to lookingforgracepodcast@gmail.com.

    Hot Takes with Grumpy Bex: GGWO Doctrinal Clarification

    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!

    A Kingdom Divided

    In this episode, we explore not only what happened in the immediate aftermath of Tom Schaller being named head of Greater Grace, but also what being handed great power can reveal about people's true character. As Maya Angelou once said, "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time."

    The Battle for the Throne

    Welcome to part three of the series on how Greater Grace came to change hands from Carl Stevens to Tom Schaller. In this episode, we take a look at how things went from seeming unity at Sandy Cove in February to rifts and schisms all over the place as a power struggle took place over who would actually become Carl's successor as head of Greater Grace.

    Sandy Cove

    Most people who have had interaction with Greater Grace, the GRACE report, previous message boards, or have even looked into the organization from the outside have seen or heard about Sandy Cove. In this episode, we are going to take a deeper look into this conference-it's intent, what was discussed, the implications and takeaways, and how it what was meant to be the beginning of re-solidifying the alliance between Baltimore and the affiliations would instead become something entirely different.

    Cracks in the Foundation

    Welcome to part one of a multi-part episode series on the decline of Carl Stevens, the rise of Tom Schaller, and the messy, messy middle in between. In these next few episodes, we will be taking a look at what happens when a leader fails, a power vacuum is created, and ambitious men pretendingto be humble servants see an opportunity too good to pass up-as well as what happens to those who dare to ask questions or get in their way.

    The Appearance of Accountability

    In this episode, we talk about the latest news of Greater Grace's decision to resign from the Evangelical Counsel for Financial Accountability while under investigation for being out of compliance with one of the ECFA guiding principles, and why this kind of accountability matters.
