Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson ’s romance has been a hot topic ever since they started dating at the end of last year. The lovebirds – who finally made their red carpet debut this month – have basically been inseparable for months now, and some fans think the Saturday Night Live star’s accent is rubbing off on his beau.

RNZ The Detail: Journalist David Farrier talks about his reporting on serious allegations of emotional and physical abuse at one of the country’s biggest megachurches: Arise. It was early May and Pastor Peter Mortlock​ was preaching to the converted. There had been trials and tribulations, highs and lows, but Mortlock had much to be pleased about.

Along with 10 campuses in New Zealand, there are 48 mission campuses in India, plus others in the Philippines, Mexico and Tonga.
