Welcome to the conversationsations, That Matter Podcast. I'm your host John Harris today. We have a special

guest with us who's going to talk a little bit about what I've seen an uptick in in the last few

years, which is being arrested for preaching the truth,

preaching the gospel, preaching the Bible in public areas in certain places.

And the guess we have today Marcus Schroeder in fact was arrested

for preaching the truth in a public area and is this persecution I mean that's one of the questions I think many are asking is especially in the wake of COVID related issues in 2020.

Is the church experiencing soft persecution and I would contend in multiple ways yes but this is just one

example that I wanted to highlight for you before I play the clip in question I

want to I want to play the clip of Marcus getting arrested and then let him comment on it.

I should let everyone know if you want after this video is complete to communicate with

Marcus or just look at the material that he has out there.

Go to Warriors for Christ Studios.

Warriors for Christ Studios on YouTube.

They also have a podcast, Warriors for Christ.

Marcus is a student at the Institute of Public Theology.

He's a young man wants to be a pastor and he's got a boldness for Christ which is why I wanted to interview him.

So without further ado, here is the video of Marcus being arrested

for preaching the gospel, and then we'll talk to Marcus.

Through love, serve one another.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this, you shall love your neighbor as yourself.

But if you bite and devour one another,

Beware lest you be consumed by one another.
