We discuss our personal reviews of Death of a Pastor’s Wife and how it relates to coming of age in the evangelical Christian Church. For Tiffany Torres Williams that is the Church of Christ, and for me it’s Mars Hill Church and Mark Driscoll.

Good morning and happy Thursday!

This morning Leon Black, former friend and billionaire client of Jeffrey Epstein, was scheduled to speak under oath in front of the House Oversight Committee, as a result of two subpoenas issued on June 26th, when he walked out on his voluntary interview.
