Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss a recent Supreme Court decision reversing a lower court ruling that allowed New York to deny Amish families vaccine exemptions. The conversation explores parental rights, religious liberty, school mandates, and how the Court’s Mahmoud decision may strengthen families seeking faith-based opt-outs in education.
In the second segment of the show, we explore the court case McRaney v. The North American Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention. Panelists examine a major ruling affirming church autonomy and limiting court involvement in internal disputes over ministry leadership, governance, and employment decisions.
