  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Christian YouTuber and Bible teacher Mike Winger announced he will take a “long overdue” three-month sabbatical beginning in June after postponing the break for months while working on his series about “cover-up culture.”

“I was supposed to go on a sabbatical in January,” Winger said during Episode 77 of his podcast. “It didn’t happen because of this series on cover-up culture, because of the stuff I’ve been working on, that sabbatical did not take place.”

Winger, who just hit over 1 million subscribers on YouTube — “It’s all by God’s incredible, incredible kind grace. I’m so grateful for it,” he said — delayed the break because he wanted to continue helping people connected to the issues he has been covering.

“I really want to keep helping these people. I don’t want to put it off. I don’t want to make them wait months for me to do the work,” he said. “So, we put it off and put it off. Well, it’s May, so I’m going to go on sabbatical starting June 1.”

“I’m just going to take a break,” Winger added. “I’m not done with the whole series. Unfortunately, there’s a few situations that I still want to cover that I just have to put on the shelf for a while.”
