  • Epic interview with Ukrainian pastor

    Joseph, your interview with Ukrainian Pastor Gennadiy Mokhnenko was riveting. Every American pastor and Christian, for that matter, should listen to this before we all find ourselves in the same regretful “We tried to warn you” crisis. Pastor Mokhnenko is so right: we should not use the rejection of man as an excuse for not speaking the truth. That is exactly what Jesus said would happen and, yet, he still said GO!
