In this episode, we discuss the Southern Baptist congregations' remarkable achievements in 2023, noting an upswing in baptisms, worship attendance, and small group participation, alongside a deceleration in membership decline. Then, we explore the Boy Scouts of America's transformative decision to rebrand as “Scouting America,” a move aimed at embracing gender inclusivity within their ranks.
In more somber news, we reflect on the Robeson County sheriff's office's report from North Carolina, which provided conclusive evidence regarding the tragic demise of Mica Miller. Lastly, we celebrate a faith-based film's success as it breaks into Netflix's global top 10, signaling a renewed interest in spiritual cinema.
