There seem to be an overwhelming number of church scandals featured on social media these days. It would make one wonder if Christianity is in crisis. Evangelicals such as Pastor Paula White are under scrutiny for their acceptance and support of Donald Trump, regardless of his lack of moral character. Hip Hop legend Kanye West's foray into gospel music and his Sunday service experience has received both praise and skepticism. I watched his Sunday Service at Pastor Joel Osteen's church last week, and I have to admit I enjoyed it. Say what you will about Kanye's motive or state of mind, his choir is phenomenal. Do you find it hard to maintain your faith in what seems like chaos? We discuss it all in this show.
