Despite immense costs, poor attendance due to factors like COVID and rising crime led to the permanent closure of the museum, causing frustration among those connected to it.

On today’s program, the American Bible Society is closing its state-of-the-art museum in Philadelphia…after spending nearly $100 million on it over the past decade. We’ll have details. Also, Texas church members support wildfire relief efforts—while also suffering losses of their own. We’ll take a look. And, Trinity International University is cutting programs and changing leadership in hopes of righting a sinking ship. But first, we revisit Dream City Church in Phoenix, Arizona. Last week, we shared about a conference the church hosted for ministry in partnership with Turning Point USA Faith. This time, the two partnered again…for an event of a different kind. The producers for today’s program are Rich Roszel and Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth. Writers who contributed to today’s program include Brittany Smith, Kim Roberts, Bobby Ross Jr., Steve Rabey, Eric Obernauer, Christina Darnell—and you, Warren. Special thanks to The Christian Chronicle and The NonProfit Times for contributing material for this week’s podcast. Until next time, may God bless you.
