German church hosts worship service featuring Taylor Swift | Todd Coconato Show  Website: www.PastorTodd.org To give and support this ministry: www.ToddCoconato.com/give A centuries-old church in Germany drew more than 1,200 people on Sunday for worship services featuring the music of Taylor Swift. The Church of the Holy Spirit, a famous church in Heidelberg that meets in a 600-year-old building, put on a service titled "Anti-Hero — Taylor Swift Church Service" over the weekend in an effort to draw the interest of young people, according to Deutsche Welle (DW). "The Church of the Holy Spirit has always been a place of encounter and exchange. That's why a pop-music religious service fits so perfectly," Pastor Christof Ellsiepen told the outlet. "With it, we are giving space to the questions and issues that occupy the younger generation." The service focused on the supposedly strong Christian themes in Swift's music that address hot-button issues such as women's rights, racism and gender equality, according to the pastor. Parish Pastor Vincenzo Petracca acknowledged that Swift has taken flak from some Evangelical faith leaders for her music, especially in the United States. "Theologically speaking, she points to the justness of God," Petracca said, adding that Swift's "faith knows doubt and inner-conflict." "For her, faith and action are inseparable," he said. Two Sunday services in the historic church featured Swift's tunes, which DW noted were attended by an audience that skewed young and female. A rainbow banner behind the musicians noted that the church welcomes "all sizes, all [colors], all cultures, all sexes, all beliefs, all religions, all ages, all types, all people." While noting that the church was "built for Gregorian liturgical music and not for Taylor Swift," Petracca maintained that he was moved by the response to the modern, pop-themed service. "I stared into beaming faces — and during the song that Taylor wrote for her cancer-stricken mother, many had tears in their eyes," he said, referring to the song "Soon You'll Get Better." Swift's latest album, released last month, drew criticism from some Christian critics who claimed it features lyrical content that mocks God and Christians. Shane Pruitt, who serves as National Next Gen director for the Southern Baptist Convention's North American Mission Board and co-author of Calling Out the Called, urged parents to seriously reconsider allowing their children to listen to Swift's music. "I'm definitely not the minister or parent that has the 'no secular music' stance," Pruitt wrote in a Facebook post. "Also, I fully realize unbelievers are going to act like unbelievers. HOWEVER, there is a difference between being secular and being ANTI-CHRISTIAN." Former Boyzone star Shane Lynch recently accused Swift of implementing hidden satanic rituals in her sold-out shows. “I think when you're looking at a lot of the artists out there, a lot of their stage shows are satanic rituals live in front of 20,000 people without them realizing and recognizing,” Lynch told Ireland's Sunday World.

The Journey Podcast 152. Sexual Terrorism in Belfast: The Kincora Boys' Home ScandalPublisher Kris Millegan speaks with Richard Kerr, Colin Wallace, and Father Sean McManus about Ireland's Kincora Boys' Home sex scandal and how it went far beyond one foster home. “Kincora Boys' Home in east Belfast, where dozens of boys were abused over three decades, has been demolished...” -SUNDAY WORLD article at the end.Father Sean McManus is the founder and president of the Irish National Caucus (IrishNationalCaucus.org). “McManus became Britain's nemesis in America, the driving force that would eventually erode Britain's influence within the U.S. Government.” (American Policy and Northern Ireland: A Saga of Peacebuilding, Professor Joseph E. Thompson, 2001.)Colin Wallace is a former Military Intelligence Officer involved in psychological operations in Northern Ireland.“THE MAN WHO KNEW TOO MUCH is a documentary by Michael Oswald about Colin Wallace, a former Military Intelligence Officer involved in psychological operations in Northern Ireland [who spread] fake news, created a witchcraft scare, smeared politicians, and attempted to divide and create conflict amongst communities, organizations, and individuals as part of a Disinformation War in Northern Ireland. He fell out with members of the intelligence community and found himself accused of murder.” - The Man Who Knew Too Much | Documentary on Propaganda and Disinformation War, on YouTube, channel: Independent POV, September 29, 2021From Colin's bio: “It was not until 14 years later that the Government finally admitted that I did have a covert role in PsyOps.”Richard Kerr Bio:“Richard Kerr is the second of six siblings who were all sent to institutions. Richard was five years old when he was sent to Williamson House (for ages 5-14) on Christmas night 1966. Then he was transferred to Kincora House (ages 14-18).“Richard's abuse started at the age of 5 at the hands of house managers. He was spirited out of Belfast to the US by his handlers in May 1979 (aged 17-18) via London. This was to ensure he was not available to answer questions in the developing police inquiries around the sex scandal known as Kincora. [Richard: “To shut me up, I was sent to the United States. The American who helped with the immigration was Roy Cohn.”]“The sex scandal was far broader than one foster home. Most of Richard's abuse was arranged by house managers in hotels and safe houses outside of Kincora. He was pimped out to businessmen, lawyers, politicians, doctors. These clients were then blackmailed into providing intelligence during the war in Northern Ireland. Most of the other kids in these homes were abused internally by the house managers.“Richard started a high court action in 2015 which has been stalled many times by the state. He is suing the police, Secretary of State, Department of Health, and the State Department in Northern Ireland, alleging that the police failed to investigate the abuse because the children were knowingly used as bait in an intelligence gathering sex honey trap.”
