On Friday, President Donald Trump said that churches were essential and called on governors to allow them to reopen them. In addition, earlier this month, a group of California pastors announced that they would reopen their doors on May 31, whether or not they had government permission. This decision is part of a larger discussion surrounding how churches should function during the pandemic. (Editor’s Note: This interview was recorded before President Trump’s announcement, so they do not comment on his remarks.)
To discuss whether or not churches should reopen, SOLA Editorial Board member Daniel K. Eng moderated a Zoon discussion between three Californian lead pastors -- Thomas Hwang from Gospel Life Mission Church, P.J. Tibayan from Bethany Baptist Church in Bellflower, and Hanley Liu from First Chinese Baptist Church in Walnut.
During this conversation, they talk about what it means to love their neighbors, submit to authority, and religious freedom. We hope this conversation will spark healthy discussions within your church as we weather this pandemic together.
