He Said He Said

The pope blesses same-sex relationships, Colorado bumps Trump from the ballot, and Brian Houston’s got a new church.

This week on The Bulletin, hosts Mike Cosper, Nicole Martin, and editor in chief Russell Moore gather around the microphone to talk about the authority figures shaping our world. This past week the pope sent ripples through the Catholic church when he declared that same-sex relationships would now be invited to blessings. Colorado followed with ripples of its own when the court determined Donald Trump is ineligible to run for president in 2024. And, rising from scandal, Hillsong’s Brian Houston is starting a new church in the coming year. Tune in and join the conversation.
