Ep. 651: What Does Fat Bear Week Have To Do With MinistryWatch?
October 7, 2026
On today’s EXTRA episode, Christina Darnell and Warren Smith discuss news of the week that is “MinistryWatch Adjacent,” including Katmai National Park’s Fat Bear Week.
Resources mentioned in today’s episode include:
- Trey’s Law (SB 30), signed by Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey earlier this year, applies to civil settlement agreements signed on or after October 1, 2026. This new Alabama law now ensures survivors of sexual abuse and trafficking cannot be lawfully silenced in its state’s civil courts. The new Alabama law is part of a growing national movement, joining Texas, Missouri, Georgia, and Louisiana in implementing versions of Trey’s Law in 2025 and 2026.
- We have mentioned Costi Hinn recently, but I cannot resist directing you to a new Business Insider video interview with him that is “must see TV” as far as I’m concerned.
- This year, the winner of Katmai National Park’s Fat Bear Week is a bear named Backpack. He weighs more than 1000 pounds. To read more about Backpack and Fat Bear Week, click here.
The producer for today’s program is Jeff McIntosh. I’m Christina Darnell, along with Warren Smith.
Until next time, may God bless you.
