Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs Church of England Approves Gay Blessings
Church of England revs with a difference Thomas Pelham and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the significant affairs of church and state. This time:
- "Far right" anarcho-capitalist extremist Javier Milei is elected as Argentina's new President.
- Ethnic Street Preachers share the message of Jesus's love with Anti-Israel protestors and are condemned for colonialism.
- The Church of England General Synod approves trial gay blessings in churches for as soon as mid-December.
That and much much more as always!
We also acknowledge the death of Sir Frank Sanderson who was friend of the show, a supporter, and a former church warden at one of Tom's parishes. More information on his life can be found at this address: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/obituaries/2023/11/21/sir-frank-sanderson-baronet-somme-lutyens-thiepval-memorial/ - May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
