@jonahtinajero@T_Gatzemeier American Funds expense ratios are low for active funds. Say what you want about EJ, and I used to work there, but your argument against AF doesn’t hold water.
I would be pissed if I donated to a church & found out that they were giving the Lord's money to "single mother" whores. I would want it to go to the Lord's work or toward helping godly Christians who are in need.
Churches should not be funding fornicators and their bastards.
@MrDanielBuck A teachers passion for the subject is contagious. I had my high school band director come work with my band once. My assistant said, “I see why you became a band director”
Isn’t it sad, if not damning, that institutional shareholders rely on proxy firms to tell them how they should vote?Index funds do no fundamental research, yet dominate institutional voting. Index-based investing is a form of socialism. Our investment system is broken.
I don’t remember exactly what happened next, but that image has always stuck with me of Voddie welcoming that kid with open arms and has always colored my impression of him as his platform expanded over the years

I met Voddie Bauchum when I was 19 and he was 26 although I could swear he was 10 years older than that the way he carried himself.
He was the camp pastor for the church youth camp and I was a counselor.
I didn’t have much interaction with him personally 1/4
So that you come on down and let’s take care of it right now.”
A kid probably in the eighth grade stood up and practically ran down the center aisle and just clung to Voddie. Voddie hugged him back and loved on him.

There are faithful men preaching the gospel week in and week out in churches all across America. They dont seek a platform and they live quiet lives. But they are faithful none the less
Never in my life have I felt like an era has ended in the history of the Church.
Sproul is gone. MacArthur is gone. Baucham is gone. Lawson and others have fallen. Kirk has been assassinated.
The church needs faithful men who will faithfully preach the Word. Time is short.
