In 2020, when Westminster Presbyterian Church (the largest Reformed church in Lancaster County, PA) cancelled the assembly of the saints, Senior Pastor Chris Walker released a video and written statement explaining “three clear biblical commands guiding our decision not to meet for worship right now.” He (and his elders) cancelled the assembly of the saints and appealed to the recommendation of the civil government as support for that decision. On this episode of The Lancaster Patriot Podcast, Chris Hume interacts with Walker’s 2020 video and critiques the arguments Walker presented in favor of canceling church for weeks. (Walker and the church elders also required masks for the first Sunday when they finally reopened.)
