G3 Ministries Is Gone…What Can Churches Learn From It?

from Wretched Radio with Todd Friel · host Fortis Institute

What do you do when God gives you news you never wanted? And what can churches learn when a respected ministry collapses? Todd looks at trusting God through suffering, the fallout from G3 Ministries, and how churches can pursue accountability without overreacting. Segment 1 • Phil Johnson’s cancer has returned—and the prognosis isn’t what anyone hoped to hear. • How should Christians respond when God gives us circumstances we desperately wish He would change? • What does it actually look like to trust that God is good even when His plans aren’t ours? Segment 2 • Phil Johnson once argued that evangelical Christianity may be in even greater need of Reformation than the church was in Luther’s day. • Could a modern-day Reformation even happen in a culture flooded with Christian influencers and competing voices? • Todd examines troubling anti-Semitism within some corners of Christian nationalism—and why forgetting history can have dangerous consequences. Segment 3 • G3 Ministries is gone after another controversy—but Todd believes an innocent pastor’s reputation was unfairly damaged along the way. • When does legitimate concern cross the line into publicly besmirching a brother? • What can Christians learn from accusations that Todd says never should have escalated the way they did? Segment 4 • After another ministry scandal, what can your church actually do to keep its leaders accountable? • Should pastors have additional safeguards, regular reviews, and greater transparency—or can accountability measures go too far? • Why no policy or system can completely protect a church when someone is determined to deceive. ___ Thanks for listening!
