You are here: Blog >Home Bible study outlawed in California?

In news that should be shocking, and headline news nationwide, the county of San Diego is trying to pressure a pastore and his wife to stop holding a Bible study in their home. The county wanted them to start paying weekly fines for the ‘crime’ of having an average 15 people in their home for a weekly Bible study. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that, under the national attention, the county has apparently backed away from their threats ... for now. The question, of course, is what will happen when national attention is no longer on the case. And where will it happen next?

Chuck Norris (yes, that Chuck Norris) writes about it in his national column, Got your permit to study the Bible?.
