Covid, Churches and the Frankfurt Declaration: Jamie Franklin & John Stevens debate Christian liberty and government overreach

<p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">As the global pandemic subsides, the way the Covid lockdowns were implemented in churches still divides Christians. The Frankfurt Declaration has been signed by church leaders who are concerned that civil and religious liberties are being eroded by Government overreach.</p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block"> </p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">One of the signatories is Anglican priest Jamie Franklin, a co-host of the Irreverend podcast. He has been critical of the church's handling of Covid saying it fell into line with restrictions too readily. He discusses the issues with John Stevens of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) who believes that the government mandates were appropriate for what was known at the time.</p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block"> </p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">For Jamie Franklin: <a href='https://irreverendpod.com/'>https://irreverendpod.com/</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">For John Stevens: <a href='https://fiec.org.uk/'>https://fiec.org.uk/</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block"> </p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• Subscribe to the Unbelievable? podcast: <a href='https://pod.link/267142101'>https://pod.link/267142101</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• More shows, free eBook & newsletter: <a href='https://premierunbelievable.com/'>https://premierunbelievable.com</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• For live events: <a href='http://www.unbelievable.live'>http://www.unbelievable.live</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• For online learning: <a href='https://www.premierunbelievable.com/training-and-events'>https://www.premierunbelievable.com/training-and-events</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• Support us in the USA: <a href='http://www.premierinsight.org/unbelievableshow'>http://www.premierinsight.org/unbelievableshow</a></p> <p class="sc-iOnGvX HXVSK slate-block">• S
