Kingdom Polemics

PCA GA Overtures


Listen Later

As the PCA's 2025 General Assembly approaches, Pastor Aldo Leon and guest George Sayour walk through many of the most discussed and debated overtures on the docket. From Christian Nationalism to church governance and from weekly communion to worship standards, this episode of Kingdom Polemics offers a sharp, theologically grounded, and at times humorous look at where the denomination stands—and where it could go. This is a must-listen for anyone wanting to understand what's really at stake at this year's Assembly.

Discussion Highlights

  • An overview of the multiple overtures related to Christian Nationalism, including why some are vague, unnecessary, or potentially overreaching
  • Reflections on the ethno-nationalist elements influencing certain Christian Nationalist circles, and why that's a real pastoral concern
  • The AI Study Committee overture: Is it needed or just a waste of time and resources?
  • The continuing conversation around the Directory for Worship—why we need more unity and clarity in PCA worship
  • Strong critiques of ByFaith's editorial direction and calls to make it a press-only outlet
  • The problem with non-elected members having voting rights in key PCA committees
  • A breakdown of the overture requiring sessions to report who is serving as deacons and why that matters for church integrity
  • Evaluating the proposal for fixed-term assistant pastors and the implications for accountability and biblical ecclesiology
  • Concerns around MNA's past publication encouraging illegal immigration—repentance vs. overreach
  • Why uniformity in worship and presbyterian governance is not optional but essential to our denominational identity
