Hey, Calvary Fremont – I was asked at our Wednesday evening service about how the Church should respond to the ongoing revelations of pastors, youth pastors, evangelists, missionaries, and various church workers who have committed adultery, molested minors, embezzled money, and emotionally abused the churches they served.

Hey, Calvary Fremont – Some time ago a government official was addressing a group of visitors to Washington, D.C. on the state of the nation and the world.
