EP144: PUTIN Quotes Bible, HILLSONG Pastor Scandal, GAWVI 's Public Apology w/ Guest Illuminate

Hillsong Church’s Board of Directors addressed a report from Australian media that revealed its co-founder Brian Houston had breached its code of conduct with women in two separate instances. The global board “confidentially” dealt with “two complaints made against Pastor Brian over the last 10 years.”

In one instance, Houston had texted flirtatiously with a Hillsong staff member 10 years ago. Religion News Service reports that Hillsong had a video meeting with 800 Hillsong staffers around the world in which interim pastor Phil Dooley characterized the texts as, “‘If I was with you, I’d like to kiss and cuddle you,’ words of that nature.”

The second incident took place during the church’s annual conference in Qudos Bank Arena in Homebush, New South Wales in 2019. Dooley said Houston had been drinking.

During a pro-war rally in Moscow on Friday night, Russian President Vladimir Putin invoked the words of Jesus Christ in order to justify his invasion of Ukraine.

Moscow police said more than 200,000 people attended the rally, Al Jazeera reported. Polling shows that a majority of Russians support the war in Ukraine, which has already left numerous Ukrainian civilians displaced, injured, and dead.

Speaking to the crowd in a turtleneck and down winter coat, Putin said he ordered the invasion "to get people out of their misery, out of this genocide, that is the main reason, the motive and purpose of the military operation that we began in Donbas and Ukraine," according to The Washington Post. Russia has repeatedly accused the Ukrainian government of committing genocide in separatist-controlled areas of eastern Ukraine.

"And this is where the words from the Scriptures come to my mind: 'There is no greater love than if someone gives his soul for his friends,'" Putin continued, paraphrasing John 15:13.
