Save Our Kids

James Powell
About this episode

We need to save our kids. We can no longer afford to ignore the psychological, spiritual, emotional and mental abuse that the church inflicts on children when they teach that any of God’s children are less than, unworthy of love or unable to love in the way that God has designed them to love.

We have another big episode in-store for you today. Here’s what’s coming up…
