Our Principles and Policies radio show for Saturday July 18, 2015. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis discuss the deeper implications of the Supreme court’s Obergefell decision in which they purport to create a “right” to homosexual “marriage” (or, with a tip of the hat to Pastor Douglas Wilson, homosexual mirage). We demonstrate the Christian view of marriage (the Radical 2 Kingdom surrender notwithstanding).
