On today’s program, Worship Pastor Aaron Ivey—husband of popular podcaster Jamie Ivey—was fired from his church after they found evidence of explicit text messages with other men, at least one of whom was a minor. We’ll have details.

Also, Abilene Christian University in Texas recently reviewed its sexuality policy in response to pushback from students and alumni…and they came back with a decision. We’ll take a look. And we have new information about the shooting at Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church in Houston.

Finally, Bible Study Fellowship has announced a big move, from San Antonio to Dallas. We’ll have details.

We begin today with news that another woman has come forward alleging Mike Bickle—the founder of the International House of Prayer in Kansas City—abused her back in the 1980s when she was a teenager.
