A Christian pastor's sermon has sparked a conflict with the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. The pastor, Sarah Lucas, condemned Arapaho ceremonial ways, calling them 'idol worship.' This has led to protests outside her church, Foundations for Nations Church, every Sunday morning.

The tribes have made it clear that Lucas is no longer welcome, but she says she won't leave. The situation is a test of religious freedom and the tribes' right to govern according to their own values. Further details about the conflict and its origins are available, including a video that circulated in July related to the Arapaho sundance ceremony.
