We're diving into the euphemisms used in Christian marriage books and by evangelical pastors, and when you translate them into actual language, it gets real creepy real fast. From Kevin Leman's "Mr. Happy" to Josh Butler's semen theo... more

It’s hard because I used to really enjoy this content when it was to love, honor, and vacuum. But somewhere along the way, it really changed to be critical of anything Christian at all. Similar to Derek Webb etc. I’m a Methodist, but it does seem like it’s not even a middle way over here. It’s just all criticism all the time.
You gotta watch because the same thing happened to hatmaker. She turned very progressive, but then her progressive followers all became very dogmatic and just as fundamen... more
Total denial of the gospel. This woman hates Christian's and has contempt for God's word. She believes the secular view that deep within the human heart we are good. That's not what the Bible says. Do not expect biblical wisdom here.
Episode 8, Sheila herself says, “I do believe that men are for more visually stimulated than women, I do believe that many more struggle with lust than women do, I do believe that mean seriously do, most men, not all, but seriously do have a felt need for sex that women do not.” She repeats the same debunked garbage that every other Christian “marriage expert” regurgitates, but with a saccharine voice, claiming to be progressive. Just another sex obsessed christian like the rest of them.
Thank you for teaching truth -that God made men and women as equals, that we are not expected (as a Christian) to stay in marriage to an abusive man who claims to be a Christian. I appreciate your research and wisdom so much and it is so needed right now. Your voice is so important in today’s world.
I’ve been a long time listener and recommend this podcast to people often. I appreciate the thorough research + theological receipts the hosts offer week after week (sources cited). If you’re looking for robust evidence and Biblical truth in context this is the podcast for you!

Focused on the complexities of marriage, parenting, and sexuality, the content emphasizes transparency and challenges traditional evangelical teachings. Discussions often reveal cultural narratives that contribute to misunderstandings about relationships in the Christian community. Topics include the significance of emotional intimacy, the impact of societal pressures on sexual expectations, and the importance of mutual respect in partnerships. Unique to this series is its candid approach, inviting guests and experts to provide diverse perspectives, which enhances the discourse around healing from harmful teachings and embracing egalitarian values in relationships.
