    Episode 408 – Who Can Tell the Pastor No? (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In this episode, we discuss the tragic story of Mica Miller and what it reveals about power, accountability, and leadership in the church. What happens when a pastor has authority but little meaningful oversight? Can someone receive forgiveness and grace while still facing consequences or being disqualified from leadership?

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    The Bible tells a powerful story of God freeing people from slavery—but it also contains laws that allow slavery and New Testament passages telling enslaved people to obey their masters. So what do we do with these difficult texts?
