The Boy Scouts’ Motto is Be Prepared!  But what could have possibly prepared eleven, twelve and even fifteen year olds for encounters with sexual predators?  Especially when the same predators were suppose to teach these children high moral values.  There are hundreds of accounts of these sexual molestation cases contained in what is termed the “Perversion Files” or "ineligible volunteer files".  According to the Scouts these files were meant to be a “buffer” to prevent the predators from re-entering scouting.  Unfortunately there have been numerous failures.  After analyzing the files it was determined that in many instances sexual deviants were kicked out of the Scouts only to be allowed back in at a different location and sometimes under a different name.  The stories are horrendous!  The stories tell in somewhat explicit detail of boys being subjected to nudity, being fondled and raped by their Scout Masters.  Keep in mind these are children.  Keep in mind the Boy Scouts’ motto, “Be Prepared”.  Be prepared for what and by whom?

Certainly, it would have been wonderful if these boys were prepared in some foolproof manner for these encounters with immoral predators.  But who would have prepared them?  The Boy Scouts?  With their history, how likely would that be?  And how would they have been prepared?  These are just some of the questions we’ll seek to gain answers to through the Holy Scriptures in this program.

Prominent Atheist, Richard Dawkins, admitted to God’s existence or at least to a very small chance that God exists.  This admission took place in a debate with Rowan Williams, the Archbishop of Canterbury.  This debate was not what was expected of two men deemed to be polar opposites on the existence of God and evolution.  Not only did Dawkins give the nod to God’s existence but the Archbishop apparently agreed with evolution.  If these two men, who are highly esteemed and notable in their achievements in opposing arenas, can come to agreement, is this an indication that we all may some-day come to similar conclusions?  Listen in as the Brothers in The Virtual Living Room discuss God’s existence and evolution.

Initially she objected, but now the mother of a 5 year old boy has conceded to her son’s desire to wear dresses. Not only has she conceded, but she has written a children’s book in defense of her little boy who wears girls clothing. Please join us in discussion on what led her to this decision and what the scripture says about such behavior.

The editors of GQ Magazine have written an article disparaging the Bible by placing it on a list of 21 literary pieces that they say are not worth reading.  Fox News religion contributor Father Jonathan Morris came to the defense of the Bible stating “Even if you don't believe this is an inspired word of God, in the last 50 years 3.9 billion have read the book."

The notable Rev. Carlton Pearson recently appeared on CNN and discussed the Bishop Eddie Long debacle as well as the Gospel of Inclusion. In the, approximately nine minute long interview, the Rev. Pearson made some… let’s say very interesting points. Basically, he conveys that everyone can go to Heaven regardless of religious persuasion or sexual orientation.

All across the most powerful country in the world, men, women and children will give the most endearing honor to their Mothers on Mother’s Day.  Mothers may be honored with various festivities including: greeting cards, flowers, gifts, lavish meals, money and more.  Above all mothers will be honored with devoted attention.  And just as with most holidays, these practices take place without serious consideration as to why.  Why is Mother’s Day celebrated?  Why is Mother’s Day not mentioned in the Holy Scriptures?  Is Mother’s Day a new holiday or is it rooted in ancient practices?

What constitutes a family seems to be ever changing in the United States of America and around the world. The word family conjures and image of a man married to a woman with children together. That image is still typical. But you also have the divorced man and divorced woman with children from previous marriages. You know the Brady Bunch type that became the new normal in the 70’s. Then there was the proliferation of single parent families and now same-sex parent families have become the new normal. What are your thoughts on the new normal same-sex parent families? More importantly what does the scripture say regarding this most recent new-normal family type?

As a parent or soon to be parent you want the best for your children.  So you read books and publications by the most studied parenting experts.  But wait…The experts don’t agree!  Now you are confused!  How do you decide on what to do and not do to appropriately mold your child into adulthood?

Easter, even if not celebrated worldwide, is recognized as a religious holiday worldwide.  Passover on the other hand is relatively unknown in many areas of the world.  However, because Jesus is associated with both Easter and Passover, some people believe Easter is the  new or reformed version of Passover.  Do you want to know the truth about Easter and Passover?  If so, tune in to our discussion in the Virtual Living Room of The Body of Christ Church.

Happy New Year! This is a phrase that is typically yelled out at the stroke of midnight on January 1st each year. It is odd to most people to hear this in the Month of April. However the evening of March 24, 2020, marked the New Year that has been given by God and heralded the coming of important and vital Holy Day Feasts. Among these feasts are Passover and The Feast of Unleavened Bread. You are invited to listen to our discussion of these Holy Feast Days.
