Back from Sabbatical episode update:
I have a hard time listening to these episodes, with the host not even acknowledging the multiple lawsuits coming against their fellowship of churches. Labor trafficking, SA, financial pressuring, and passing around known abusers between churches are some of the causes for the lawsuits against the ICOC.
The hosts bring up a question towards the end of the episode about if they should still be with their church. The answer is probably “No”, unless they plan on taking their church and leaving the ICOC and related churches.
Old review:
I enjoy the conversations and banter that all four of the hosts have been having. But if this podcast is coming from the ICOC, I feel like they are skirting around some of the systemic problems from that fellowship of churches that really should be addressed or brought up.
They have mentioned in multiple episodes, some of the hurts that their brothers and sisters in Christ have caused, but some of the foundational aspects of their churches are often what makes them have these unpresentable aspects in their lives.
The host do allude to trying to make some changes within their fellowship, but then they also kind of take a jab at individuals who have tried to change the church, but were forced out.
