Broken Halos

In this episode of The Bulletin, Russell Moore, Mike Cosper, and Clarissa Moll talk with Nicole Martin about the resignation of pastor Robert Morris and why churches harbor predators. Next, nationalism is increasing in Europe. Are the threats the same as we’ve seen on our own shores? Finally, we end with some suggestions for summer reading from our hosts and the larger Bulletin community.
