Many people have heard about the Woke Left, but there is a trend toward "Wokeness" on the Right as well. Today we talk about what it looks like to be Woke Right and why it is problematic for the church. We must be vigilant as Christians not to be swayed into a worldview that does not correspond with the core tenets of the faith, whether that temptation comes from the Left or the Right of the political spectrum.Time Stamps: 00:00 Introduction 03:36 Defining Terms and Understanding History 12:01 Problems with Wokeism on the Left 24:27 The Rise of the Woke Right 50:52 Problems with the Woke Right (for Christians) 52:12 Problem 1: Emphasis on Group Identity 57:08 Problem 2: Overemphasis on Ethnicity 1:03:28 Problem 3: Unfounded Skepticism against Authority 1:08:34 Problem 4:Emphasizes Human Solutions to a Sin Problem 1:11:47 Why is it Important to talk about the Woke Right?If you have found the podcast helpful, consider leaving a review on Itunes or rating it on Spotify.

S7, E48 – Discover the importance of uncomfortable conversations in shaping the future of the livestock industry. Dr. Keith Belk discusses insights from the 2024 International Summit on the Societal Role of Meat and Livestock, including science-based communication, ecological impacts, and the need for proactive engagement. Learn how producers can use facts to navigate evolving societal perceptions of meat production. Takeaways • Effective communication of scientific data is crucial for the livestock industry. • There is a need for clear definitions in the industry to avoid misrepresentation. • Public understanding of science is lacking and needs improvement. • Producers should engage with society to share the realities of their practices. • Global perspectives can inform local practices and policies in agriculture. • Collaboration among producers and scientists is essential for progress.

A rambling solo-cast! We disagree and argue and/or set goals and have conversations with ourselves AND others AND many times we are not even talking about the real problem or with agreed upon definitions. So, what happens in conversations we end up talking about symptoms and not the issues OR when referring to our personl life we end up chasing 'visions' with no real plan in place. How can you call someone a racist without proof? How can we find common ground if calling you a name with no proof works? When does life begin - without answering that it's hard to agree upon policy! What is inciting violence? We hide behind the shield of oppression - kindness - and headlines and never really get to policy and that is our problem!

Because I taught college for 25 years I'm tracking the devolution of Pro-Hamas rallies on university campusi. But it wasn't that which provoked this show's one-off reflection. No, instead it was a couple articles in my denomination's quarterly ministers' magazine that smacked me upside the head. They accepted the premise. Accepted the definitions and premises of a progressive framing of reality. Uncritically, they took progressive (woke) terms and tried to run them through a Christian-coffee-filter in order to flavor (or baptize) those terms and make them Christian. In this episode I explain what is happening to pastors and churches who try to Christian-baptize progressive terms and premises. I also reflect on the recent water baptism of actor Russell Brand. Beautifully so, Brand seems to have been red-pilled not only by the madness of our era but by the work of the Holy Spirit. So come and think with me, laugh with me, and reflect with me on what being Christian means in our 21st century and its context.

We are what we eat. It's an axiom. We take it as a great truth that the better the food we take on to fuel our human engines, the better those engines shall hum. Our guest this week asks us to both embrace that truth and expand it one further: we are what our food eats.This is just one of the core principles of regenerative agriculture, a practice celebrated by our guest today. Ryan Pintado-Vertner is an activist and a strategic marketing impact expert who helps purpose-driven founders, CEOs, and their teams stay true to their mission through thoughtful marketing and business growth strategies. Ryan has also spent a good part of his career working in natural foods and consumer packaged goods and works at the intersection of what we consume and how that consumption affects our planet and our bodies.Ryan is also a noted enthusiast for the transformative potential of regenerative agriculture. Far from a niche concept, regenerative practices offer a powerful trifecta of benefits: sequestering carbon to combat climate change, producing more nutritious food, and fostering healthier ecosystems.As Ryan explains, the health of the soil is the cornerstone that enables plants to convey the best nutrient benefits to both humans and animals. He illuminates how regenerative agriculture's focus on building healthy soil can allow agriculture to become a net negative contributor to atmospheric carbon. While still in the early stages, hundreds of organizations worldwide are pioneering regenerative practices at various scales.However, regenerative agriculture is about more than just farming techniques. Ryan emphasizes how it represents a broader approach to life and relationships, one that honors the sacredness of every part of the ecosystem. Embracing regenerative principles means adding value rather than extracting it and recognizing that diversity is inherently essential for any system to thrive.As awareness of regenerative agriculture grows, it has the potential to not only heal our planet and nourish our bodies, but to profoundly reshape how we relate to one another and the natural world we inhabit. This week's show invites each of us to plant the seeds of a regenerative future, one nutrient-rich carrot at a time.

In this podcast, Dan Leitz of the Bonhoeffer Project, discusses the changing interpretations of the Gospel and the need for robust, shared definitions of key terms within our church communities. He raises issues around the contemporary Gospel narrative, highlighting the importance of understanding the historical and cultural context of original biblical texts, emphasizing the need for people to see the Gospel as a message given to them, rather than something they themselves can create and tailor to their needs. As churches in today's world, we need to be solid on creating and maintaining a clear, accurate picture of the Gospel message for their congregations.

The state of modern health, specifically women's health, is in a very unique place right now. So much information, disinformation, arguing, and camps forming within health, nutrition, and wellness that it's very understandable to be confused. I wanted to bring on someone who I've been working with for years now to chat about some important topics around women's health. Melissa Parra is my nurse practitioner (I've mentioned her before on previous episodes) and is also a clinical herbalist and bio-identical hormone consultant. She is a member of the Navajo Tribe and serves on the board of directors for First Nations Clinic. In today's episode, we discuss HRT, women and weight gain, the rise of Alzheimer's disease, and more!

Desire discrepancy is a set of differences about the quantity, quality, or types of experiences that a couple or a group want to have. As we mentioned in the last episode, desire discrepancy is not inherently a source of conflict. The difficulty or inability to negotiate these differences is what leads to conflict. So how can we talk about the different ways that two (or more) partners might access sexuality? And not just who wants it more? But the different fantasies, preferences, scenarios needed for a positive sexual experience, and much more? Julia and Jeremiah talk more about a different way to think about desire discrepancy, including: Defining Terms (7:54): “Simply put, desire discrepancy is a set of differences about the quantity, quality, or types of experiences that a couple or a group want to have. As we mentioned last week, Desire discrepancy is not inherently a source of conflict. The difficulty or inability to negotiate these differences, that's what leads to conflict.” Jeremiah defines desire discrepancy and how it does not spur conflict, but the lack of communication around it does. Julia adds, “EMPish communities tend to discourage conflict and encourage enmeshment within couples and families. Lack of conflict in EMPish communities is a sign of moral superiority and successful marriage, at least according to their rules. EMPish communities tend to view conflict as a threat to the relationship and ultimately the unity of the couple.” She contextualizes the definition within EMPish (Evangelical, Mormon, and Pentecostal) context. Building upon last weeks episode, Julia, and Jeremiah discuss how working on desire discrepancy often has pitfalls within the sexual health context. Orgasm Gap (24:00): “According to Jennifer Rubin and colleagues, typically speaking, in opposite-sex relationships, You find that 90 percent of straight men consistently orgasm while only 65 percent of women consistently orgasm […] So Jennifer Rubin and colleagues also write about how the prioritization of the male partner's sexual pleasure, as well as larger gendered cultural scripts, were negatively associated with the female desire for sexual activity.” Jeremiah discusses how the perception that women have a lower sex drive than men is inaccurate because a majority of the studies on the topic fail to include the orgasm gap as outlined above, the domestic labor women typically are burdened with, and fears that men do not typically associate with sex. Julia then adds: “That is just so deeply depressing. Considering how often women fake orgasms and accounting for the shame of not being able to orgasm, I would highly suspect that 65 percent is high. The super sad part is that women don't actually have a refractory period as men. So if anything, women should be having way more orgasms than men, like way more.” The orgasm gap between men and women is influenced by a load of factors, however, as Julia notes, since women do not have a refractory period, it is insane how big the gap is. Spontaneous v.s. Responsive Desire (28:00): “Spontaneous desire is a desire that comes fairly naturally, fairly quickly, fairly innately. Whereas responsive desire requires context, requires space, requires time, requires an on ramp, requires a lot of different variables in order to be able to access. So although the field of sexual health has been considering a more expansive definition of sexual desire beyond spontaneous desire in recent years, there's still a move in our field to equate desire with spontaneous desire. When in fact, spontaneous desire and responsive desire or both are equal forms of desire.” Jeremiah talks about the difference between spontaneous vs responsive desire, and how the field of sexual health tends to hold spontaneous desire as the best form of desire. Julia then shares a metaphor for understanding the difference between spontaneous and responsive desire: “The metaphor that Emily Nagoski used during her talk to describe spontaneous and responsive desire. She described spontaneous desire as waking up in the middle of the night Remembering that you have a piece of your favorite cake in the fridge and then thinking Oh my god. I want cake. I want it now. I'm going to get that cake and it's going to be amazing. That's spontaneous desire. Responsive desire is you received an invitation to a birthday party. You responded to that invitation. You go to the party. You might not even really be especially in the mood for cake, but you're at the party. You're with your friends. You see the cake. Your friends are eating the cake. You remember that you love strawberries and chocolate together. You take a bite. You take a couple of bites and oh my god, it's amazing. So the cake is great. The cake is equally good in both scenarios. I would maybe even argue that the cake at the birthday party might even be better. That's just a personal preference. That's one way to consider an image for spontaneous versus responsive desire.” Falling into Gendered Scripts (36:00): “This second pitfall within the field of sexual health, which is the emphasis on more desire rather than co-creating a quantity of experiences that works for any group. So to link back to the pitfalls within the field of sexual health, the field of sexual health does not help folks negotiate sexual differences when they either reinforce the unhelpful, untrue messages about gender scripts or when they focus too heavily on creating more desire rather than helping folks co-create an experience that works for all involved parties.” Julia describes how the sexual health field is eerily similar to the Church is pushing desire over healthy conflict and communication. Without an effort to navigate desire discrepancy, folks tend to fall into their gendered roles, in and outside the Church, as a default to avoid conflict. Relationship 101 (45:00): Jeremiah lists the four tips: #1: “Refrain the idea that spontaneous desire is the only or superior form of desire. Responsive desire is just as important and meaningful.” As previously mentioned, spontaneous desire is not the only valid form of desire, and a tip Julia adds on how to foster responsive desire is sexy texts throughout the day. #2: “Consider accelerators and brakes or exciters and inhibitors. Dr. Emily Nagoski has a fantastic and brief assessment on her website called the sexual temperament assessment.” Julia expands on this tip by adding: “Accelerators or exciters are whatever helps you to move into a sexual experience. It doesn't have to be fast, but they are the factors that contribute to you enjoying a sexual experience with a partner or a partner's. Breaks or inhibitors are the things that get in the way either before a sexual experience starts or in the middle. That doesn't allow it to continue or doesn't allow it to be pleasurable in the way that you want.” #3: “Have a conversation with your partner or partners about the sexual experiences that you want to have. Be as specific as possible. Paint the picture like an erotic scene.” It can be hurtful when a sexual experience does not go as planned, so put the time into communication. #4: “Foreplay is a 24 to 48 hour long experience.” This can be anything from flirting via text throughout the day or while doing something non-sexual together. Foreplay does not begin 10 minutes before sex, but almost two days before.
Defining Terms (2:00): This episode explores the Gottman principle of making dreams come true, individually and within a partnership. Jeremiah gives the example: “So when we consider life dreams From the partnership perspective, we may be referring to individual or shared dreams. For example, Julia and I have individual dreams of writing two different books. And we also have a shared dream of what we want to create with Sexvangelicals. Nurturing and supporting both individual and shared dreams are vital for the health of a relationship.” In defining terms, it is important to look at examples that narrow in broad concepts such as making dreams come true. Gender and Dreams Within the Church (7:00): “Sadly, a person's dreams must serve the greater purpose of evangelism, or the language might be saving souls or bringing the kingdom of God, depending on your community of origin. So, for example, at different points in my life, I wanted to pursue acting. Or I wanted to pursue nursing or a variety of other careers. But those dreams always existed with an emphasis on being a missionary. So for example, maybe I would be a nurse missionary or vocational missions. But if I became an actor, that would have been much more complicated because you know that the entertainment industry is seedy as fuck. […] And then when we consider gender, the complications here get worse. Breaking it down. Women support the quote-unquote dreams of their husbands. Husbands support the dreams of the larger church dictated by the pastor and the broader goals of the American Christian church, often supporting white nationalism and other conservative agendas.” Julia lays out how the Church does not allow for the principle of making dreams come true to exist because it counteracts the mission of the Church which is to serve God, and/or your husband, and dreams of being an actor do not serve that purpose. Gearing up for Marriage (19:00): “There was kind of a lighthearted playfulness between us flirty, just fun. Because of the pressure and, you know, the whole movement bolstered by kissing dating goodbye, it becomes this serious vibe of Would I marry this person? Because if not, then we can't waste time. And I can't be emotionally cheating on my future spouse by being flirty with this person. And it's just like, you know, it's illogical, but it was the world that we were in. And so I would say that it very much. dampened our playfulness is a big way that I saw that play out for us as we started dating.” Nicki shares what the confines of dating within the Church looked like and how it rid people of their ability to engage in flirting, fun, and general playfulness. Jeremiah responds: “From a relationship therapist standpoint, it's neat to hear you link sexuality and playfulness and grieving about the ways that you lost those more playful, spontaneous parts of yourself in the name of adhering to the standards of the church.” It is important to name the elements of a relationship lost due to the Church during the deconstruction process. Grief is natural, and sadly many young folks who grew up in EMPish communities are only focused on marriage and not the fun of dating. Motherhood and Marriage (27:00): “I want to be the definition of success in a space, right? And so when I'm told that being a wife is what I'm called to do. And then that being a mother is God's highest and holiest calling. […] Then this is what gets me like the currency in this space. This is what gets me the social capital is to be the best helper, which someone said recently, that's the like three is a thing to do, to be like, I will be the best too, you know? And so that's what I just put all my energy into that. And then just the drain it was on me at the same time to then have the conflicting message of the very same people who are telling me that God's highest and holiest calling for me is motherhood are the same people putting this immense pressure on me to not let Stephen feel neglected that he should still take precedence over our newborn baby.” Nicki describes existing as a woman within a Christian structure because it is conflicting and causes tension. All desires and dreams are stripped, and the only true callings are motherhood and marriage. She goes on to say: “Inside of me so much tension and like prior to having kids, I had been a teacher. And so I wanted to be like a teacher of the year. I wanted to pour everything into this. But then it was like, okay, well, I can't do both. I can't be the best teacher and be the best wife and mom.” The challenge that comes up is people cannot be the best at everything and need support throughout their careers, marriage, and parenthood. The Church however does not set up structures to aid people through this emotionally or physically. It is challenging to chase after dreams that are not allowed to exist within the confines of the Church walls. Lack of Sex Education (41:00): “[Nicki] was told you either can't say no to sex, you say yes or convince me, and that was by older women, right, who had taken this mindset on and were teaching the younger women. That was this model that was upheld. For me, you know, growing up in the church, it's always like no sex before marriage, that's sinful, right? And so, I didn't. And even got to the point where it's like, okay, no kissing because it's too tempting to do that and not go further.” Stephen talks about how men and women were taught about sex, and how women are taught to never deny sex and to consistently encourage it once married, while men are taught no sex before marriage and that men have naturally high libidos which will activate on the wedding night. This idea plays into the light-switch theory once again, and how the second “I Do” is said, all the knowledge and desire of sex will just flow through your veins with no education or knowledge. It is challenging to exist as a man within an environment that tells you that the only thing you want is sex, because what if it isn't? The Church offers no support for couples to discuss their differing desires. Jeremiah adds: “Thinking about the cultural messages, not just the religious messages around, you know, what happens to women who have very quick sexual accelerators. The slut shaming that happens, all the negative language, that women are given both inside and outside of marriage. And then also the same thing for men who have a higher break system, the shaming language, often the, the homophobic language that gets directed towards men who have a stronger break and the dual response cycle that you were referring to.” The Church tends to hurl homophobic and sexist language at people who differ from their idea of the norm, harming folks who do not fit into the rigid mold the Church prescribes to people. No Room for Dreaming (49:00): ”It can seem so weird, like how could you live like this? Looking back on it and talking about it now, like the world we were in, but when we were in it, it made so much sense to me. Yeah, of course. It just seemed like this is the way It's supposed to be and this is what the bible says and this is what it means, therefore, this is what we're supposed to pursue, and on so many levels whether that's relationships or how we live in the world how we spend our money how we spend our free time, you know and I was just thinking about how controlling it sounds and because it is, and, I'm really just starting to see that more clearly now, just like how controlling it was. And it's, it's a big, it's a big process for me to heal from.” Stephen talks about how challenging it is to realize how controlling the Church makes life. It is incredibly challenging for folks moving into and through the deconstruction process to hold space for grief after realizing how many of their dreams were not allowed to flourish.

Stay tuned for an exciting season ahead, featuring experts in the field.
We're back from our month off hiking the Alpe Adria in Austria, Slovenia, and Italy. And we pick up today where we left off, talking about the Sound Marital House model from couples therapy gurus John and Julie Gottman. For a friendly reminder, the first three levels of the Sound Marital house are curiosity, appreciation, and leaning toward your partner. And this week, Julia and Jeremiah talk about the fourth value: the positive perspective, including: Defining Terms (10:00): “For the sake of today, we're going to say that being positive about sexuality in a partnership means being positive about the existence of eroticism in a relationship, which to be clear is not the same as sex. […] To simplify it for today, eroticism is ultimately about the presence of sexual desire, whether or not you consummate that sexuality. So we'll be focusing on positivity about the presence of sexual desire, and since this is a relationship podcast, We'll talk about the presence of sexual desire within a partnership or whatever other relational structure you have.” Julia defines positive perspective, eroticism, and sexuality in terms of today's episode. Defining clear terms is an important value for Sexvangelicals, and it is important to have a clear understanding of how we will be using these terms to navigate our topic. Hierarchy (17:00): “The gatekeeping around marriage creates an exclusionary social hierarchy in which you've got married Christian folks at the top, accessing all their God-given sexual rights. And unmarried Christian folks, one rung below, who are either dating or pursuing marriage in some sort of explicit way. Eventually, those folks may have full access to the post-marriage sex script. But until marriage, they are inherently limited. Unmarried folks who by choice or not by choice will not ever get married are the next level lower. They are not able to access the joy of sexuality in marriage. […] And all of this is important in setting up the episode today because we are highlighting that dichotomy of the pre-marriage sexual script and the post-marriage sexual script. And I suppose if we have this hierarchy... The secular folks are just outside of this system because they refuse to participate because they're relishing in their heathen ways. Like us. Us unmarried folks who are still having sex.” Julia highlights the hierarchy within EMPish communities based on marriage status. EMPish Churches only have two scripts, one for those pre and post-marriage, creating a system where only those two realities exist. This is incredibly damaging as all your relationships in the “pre” sphere exist as a march to the wedding, as Julia will go on to share today. Preserving Purity (19:00): “So due to the gatekeeping around marriage, the dichotomy between the pre-marriage and post-marriage scripts inherently function to protect the system of social and sexual hierarchy that we just described […] So, if the pre-marriage script focuses on preserving the purity of your sexuality until you can access the post marriage script, folks hoping to get married face some, some unique sexual challenges.” Jeremiah talks about how the pre-marriage script is incredibly limited in fundamentalist communities and that the only information people hoping to get married receive is that they will unlock all these secrets about sex when they're already married. This causes a lot of pain and grief, because the reality is without proper sex education and knowledge around sex, most of people confronted with the post-marriage script do not know what to do. He also says: “Depending on the level of fundamentalism in a person's community, the rules limiting access to sexuality may vary in strictness while still serving to protect sexual purity.” This statement encapsulates the issue at hand because the rules around sexuality in fundamentalist communities are structured around preserving purity, however, once you are married, your “purity” goes away. It's All About Sex (28:00): “Because I wanted to have sex. Even at the time, I had some shame around that because I knew, according to the church, that I as a woman was not supposed to have those sexual desires. Interestingly, by eradicating any meaningful sexual expression, the church's teachings actually make dating relationships all about sex.” Julia speaks about how by repressing any means of sexual expression, the church inadvertently makes dating all about sex. A lot of young couples instead of enjoying their time dating, spend time focusing on “not giving in to sin.” This puts sex on a pedestal, which in turn makes people want it more. Shame and Grief (40:00): “The reason that this story is so essential to this episode is that you met someone that you liked, you briefly dated, you enjoyed some sexual experiences, which would be completely developmentally appropriate for a 19-year-old who's working during the summer months while in college, but instead of enjoying it, instead of learning about yourself and exploring relational and sexual values, you obsessed over your sin.” Jeremiah says in response to Julia's story. He talks about how instead of being able to relax into developmentally appropriate desires she had to spend her entire relationship worrying about sinning. Julia then adds: “Yes. I'm sad for my 19-year-old self, and I know that this story is not unique. I can't tell you how many times I've supported clients in grieving what they lost due to sexual shame. And I'm not specifically grieving the relationship itself, I'm grieving that I lost the opportunity to get to know myself and I'm grieving how much pleasure and fun not just sexual pleasure and fun that the shame stole from you.” She shares the grief of not being able to have those “normal” experiences because of the fundamentalist community she was in. EMPish communities have a focus on teaching people shame, not on teaching people about sexuality, and shame dictates the pre-marriage script. Lack of Eroticism (49:00): “Sex was finally allowed. And that actually killed a big part of the eroticism for me and for many people. The massive barriers to sexuality created by purity culture actually make sex pretty sexy. But folks like me and like so many others didn't know how to create and build eroticism on their own without those barriers. Which often causes sex to be pretty disappointing after the barriers of purity culture are no longer present. […] Second, sexuality was now not only allowed, it was expected. Which I know you'll discuss more in your episode, Jeremiah, and that generated a lot of sexual pressure for me. This thing, intercourse, was expected, but I didn't have relational or individual literacy about sexuality or tools to co-create a pleasurable experience.” Julia shares how after the barriers to entry were removed, there was no eroticism present nor was there a way for her to engage in sexuality due to the lack of resources and knowledge. EMPish communities foster an environment where people are forbidden to have sexual desires and thoughts up until their wedding night, and they are just expected to know right after they say “I Do.” Beginning the Conversation Around Neutrality (1:04:00): “Neutrality means that you do not actively want sex. And you are open to go full circle to the possibility of a sexual experience. So, I learned that you don't have to wait until you really want to have sex to have a great sexual experience. So, if the responsive desire is a big part of the sexual template for many individuals, many couples, or throuples or whatever your group, then we've got to actually figure out what to do with that. Simply knowing that responsive desire is important for folks or the dominant template for folks isn't enough. And in future episodes, we're going to be talking about what does it mean to take that neutrality. Take that responsive desire and build something that hopefully is really fun and pleasurable.” Julia explains what neutrality and responsive desire are, a topic that will be explored more in the coming months. It is important to highlight in this Relationship 101 that sexual desire looks different for everyone and to not hold yourself to the same standard as everyone else, because it looks different for everyone as Jeremiah notes: “And one of the things that we'll come across when we do this, just to skip ahead a little bit, is the idea of conflict. Yes. Because... How you access sexuality, Julia, is going to be different from how I access sexuality. And we've got to figure out how to navigate those differences and to create something that works for both of us. That both of us really enjoy. And conflict doesn't have to be scary, it doesn't have to be fighting, anything like that. Even though some emotions will probably come up for folks, even for you and I, as we navigate this.”

This week, Pastor Daniel and Pastor Martin continue the discussion on Eschatology! But there are some things they need to establish first. Email us: info@canaanstl.org
In the first season of the Freethinking Podcast, Tim and I are recapping his debate with James White, a prominent Calvinist theologian. This debate happened in February of 2022, but this is our chance to recap the overall debate on the podcast. In this episode, we give a little background on how this debate came to be, as well as the differing definitions of biblical used by Tim and Dr. White. Tim also defines a few of his terms that he used throughout the debate.
Discerning Truth in the Storm of Deception, Propaganda, and Lies. We are joined by JR McGee (CEO X-Stream Leadership Group). Topics discussed include: Contrasting Language. Defining Terms, Disclosing Deceptive Strategies. Discerning Truth, Finding Facts. Claiming Truth, Anticipating Next Steps in Light of Biblical Prophecy.
Coming right on the heels of the celebration of Memorial Day, plenty of Americans feel especially patriotic. And if patriotism is a love for one's country and a commitment to see it do well, care for its people, and grow beyond its shortcomings, that can just be another form of the broad commandment to "love your neighbor." But in this new series, pastors Sarah, Erica, and Steve look at what happens when patriotism is exchanged for nationalism--the idea that one's own country can do no wrong, or that your country's success must come at the expense of others. Even more potentially disastrous is the phenomenon of so-called "Christian" nationalism, that tries to equate God's kingdom with one country, or which tries to marry Christianity to a country's civil government--often to the harm of both Christian witness and the functioning of society at large. As we begin this series, we start with defining terms, so that we can sift through the differences between a healthy appreciation for one's own country and an unhealthy idolatry of nation. This is an important conversation to have, and it's worth exploring together--so join us for this series here on Crazy Faith Talk!
In this episode we discuss why defining terms is so important in the process of restoration. We also continue our new meme segment!
In this weeks episode, Imani joins us again to go over LGBTIA terms and controversial subjects within the community.https://lgbtqhealth.ca/community/two-spirit.phphttps://sites.psu.edu/evolutionofhumansexuality/2014/02/19/third-genders-new-concept-or-old/
Deconstruction is a buzz word in faith circles these days. As we launch this podcast, we want to address what it generally means. We also talk about our perspective or reconstruction--something we feel is just as important... After all, it's the name of our podcast.
