- Biblical, evidence based, straight to the truth!
These podcasts will really challenge you to examine your beliefs and what you've internalized and help you to compare it to Scripture to decide for yourself if individual teachings are TRULY based on the Bible, or someone's faulty interpretation of it for selfish gain. I love all of the interviews Sheila does with people of all different backgrounds. Conservative, Liberal and all on between. Let's take politics and preconceived notions out of the Bible and juat be concerned with what JESUS teach... more

United States3 months ago - Good message, often reactionary
I have read some of their books and think their message is so needed. There is a lot that needs to be called out in “Christian culture” when it comes to sexuality. But the focus often miss the relational dynamics at play. There is little mention how both husband and wife can self sabotage and self protect to the emotional and sexual detriment of the relationship.

Apple Podcasts1drdoubleyou59United States6 months ago - So needed in this time
I am one of many who has been helped and healed by the work and research of Sheila, Rebecca and Joanna. They are discussing teachings and beliefs that have long been accepted by much of the modern American church, but that in reality are not of Jesus and only cause harm and destruction. It is not wrong to question, in fact, its our calling as followers of Jesus. We should not blindly follow the crowd, even if it claims to be a Christian one. It’s time to have the hard conversations and truly jud... more

They have great intentions, I’m sure, but are as wrong as the ideologies/theologies they oppose. Find another source for biblical representation of marriage.
