| Episode 61: Arrests at the Altar of Mark Barclay's Living Word Church | 09 Mar 2025 | 00:51:40 | |
In the second installment of our series, we connect with Dana and Dan, longtime volunteers from Evangelist Mark Barclay's church, which shares a history with our former home church. Recently, three former leaders from Barclay's church have faced criminal charges—one has been convicted, while the other two are still navigating the legal system. When the allegations surfaced, Dana and Dan courageously spoke out in defense of the truth, despite Mark Barclay's dishonest statements about the events. Mark Barclay also knowingly had a violent convicted felon around children in his church and in a position of leadership without disclosing to his congregation. These discussions are particularly timely given the current political climate.
