In this episode, Sam contends that the Apostle Paul got it wrong by establishing churches – that he went beyond the bounds of what Jesus commissioned him to do in his conversion. Blasphemous as this may sound, Sam asks the listener to consider that Paul was a man, not a deity who never made a mistake and that the New Testament is primarily descriptive regarding church and churches, not prescriptive. ___________________________ Welcome to THE CHURCH IS BROKEN podcast. Join Sam Neider, a former pastor, on his journey of enlightenment as he shares his story of walking through darkness and despair to lay hold of the LIGHT that he could not find in 30 years of seeking, searching, and serving in the church. Sam exposes why the church is broken and how the misaimed, man-made system fails at bringing light into the world and at producing transformation in the lives of the believers. Sam will empower you, the listener, with the good news of living the KINGDOM LIFE, based on the TRUTH of what Jesus really taught and commissioned us to do - the TRUTH that has been veiled by the broken system of the church. “To engage with Sam directly go to the podcast Facebook page at https://m.facebook.com/TheChurchIsBroken/ To get show notes and other exclusive content go towww.thechurchisbroken.com.”
