“ Two of the devil's biggest lies are ‘You're the only one who struggles with this kind of stuff' and ‘You can't tell anyone.' Sin thrives in that kind of dark secrecy.” So says author and apologist Sam Allberry during this conversation with Russell Moore. The two discuss Allberry's new book, One with My Lord, and consider various ways people interpret the Bible's perspective on sexuality. They talk about gender identity, marriage, and what it means when God says it is not good for humans to be alone. Allberry and Moore consider the importance of friendship, the value of community, and the impact of social media on mental health. They also discuss Allberry's experience with Ravi Zacharias International Ministries (RZIM), the Billy Graham rule, and fostering organizational cultures of transparency.

So many of our popular songs, hit movies, favorite poems, social media spin around us the notion of love. We all teach about love, sing about love, long for love, shoot--we even cry out for love! That being so, surely we must know what love is, right?! No doubt, we got love down, don't we, since we seem obsessively focused on it almost all of the time? Not so fast! Let's be real, WE know, that YOU know, that we really mean different things when we say, ‘we LOVE tacos' and ‘we LOVE our significant other' .We think the problem might not be that we are so unfamiliar with love - instead, might we not be too familiar with it? If that is so, how might we recognize the kind of love that the gospel story describes about what God in Jesus did for us? Is love even the best way to describe what we find in the gospel story?

Did Jesus ever do, or say, anything wrong? This is the major question posed by Dr Hector Avalos in his book, The Bad Jesus: The Ethics of New Testament Ethics, and this forms the basis of the discussion in Part 2 of this episode. Perhaps the real question is this: can such a question even be raised without offending large swathes of Christians worldwide? If Jesus was supra-human (both human and divine), as most Christians hold, then he lived a sinless life--and should be viewed as the paragon of virtue and as a substantive base for ethical behavior. If, however, he was human, then surely he must have had flaws--as do we all. Can you question this? Don't miss this episode, as Dr Avalos and I explore these questions and more.
