The Sword & The Trowel

Seems that the flock is very awake on these cultural issues that affect the church but many pastors remain asleep or lack courage to speak.

Actually a decent podcast but once in a while when one of the hosts go into the political foray they’ll make statements such as “any Christian who supports a democrat, supports the platform and that’s sin because it involves abortion.” I understand the logic but sadly, no party or political candidate(either Republican or democrat) follows a platform to a T and that’s especially for a voter. Christians sadly are in a bind with American political parties; either one that supports abortion or one that heralds a sinner convicted of crimes to cover adultery. Sometimes when it’s two choices, you’re going to sin. But assuming one is going to sin voting democrat and the other voting republican is not, is wrong. We all are sinning in the political atmosphere and sadly, Christians can’t seem to find better men and women to lead this nation. I stopped listening sadly after that particular statement from a host.

I thoroughly enjoy this edify podcast and look forward to every episode.

My only critique of this show, and it has nothing to do with any of the content or guests, is that out of all the podcasts I listen to, only this one has a host that is very difficult to hear. Pastor Tom speaks low, and his mic must also be at a low volume because it is very difficult to hear at times. If this could be fixed, I’d put down a five star review! Thanks again for y’all’s service, Pastor Tom and Graham, please maintain your faithfulness to the gospel truth! Best regards, Seth.
