Columnist fact-checks his own sermon claims

Original: "Fact-check your pastor," the column said. So I did. Starting with the one who wrote it. https:// fiveminuteobservations

A religion columnist in Cape Girardeau wrote a piece urging readers to fact-check their pastors, then turned the exercise on himself, examining the accuracy of his own column in a follow-up post. The item invokes the Bereans, the biblical figures praised for verifying Paul's teachings against scripture, framing the piece as an encouragement to test religious claims rather than accept them on authority.

Why now: The unusual twist of a writer fact-checking his own religious column invites curiosity and debate about accountability in faith teaching.
