Living Hope lead pastor speaks out

"Sadness" at social media criticism following Villa event

The lead pastor from Living Hope Church has expressed his sadness, after the organisation was subject to widespread criticism on social media following a recent event.

Jonathan Stanfield spoke to Manx Radio after Living Hope released a statement about what it coined 'Christianophobic' comments on social media from activists and members of the public.

The church 'publicly refutes' what it says is 'inaccurate reporting' about the recent conference, held at the Villa Marina in Douglas last week.

You can hear more from Mr Stanfield on Thursday morning's Mandate programme, on FM at 7.30am.
