This week is an interesting one and a podcast that truly brings someone who has done something few have accomplished. I interview Brother Eliseo Soriano, he founded a religious denomination, his current title being Overall Servant of the Members Church of God International, this church has grown to over 1,300 congregations, 6 continents, and more than 1 million followers. We talk about how he started such a movement, his struggles in the Philippines, and his current work. This is a fascinating conversation for those within his church who want to learn more about the founder and also those, like myself, who are not members and interested in exactly what it took to lead such a large group.
UPDATE: Brother Eli Soriano died on February 10, 2021 in Brazil about 4 months after this interview was conducted. The cause of his death was not released. While I am still unsure the complete reasons he was forced to leave the Philippines I had a great conversation with him. I can also say simply from the outpouring of tributes this episode received at the time of his death that he will be missed by those who followed him.
