Send us a Question!

On this episode of Theology in Pieces, Slim and Malcolm are back with a full plate—and not just because Thanksgiving is still lingering in our arteries. We kick things off with National Signing Day and why college football used to be great but is actually terrible. Then we wade into the typical swamp of terrible tweets, biblical misquotes, and the unsettling ease with which Christians can justify killing people unlawfully… all before asking, Why can’t we actually be friends?

That question brings us to our guest, Rev. Dr. Erin Moniz, whose new book Knowing and Being Known invites us to rethink intimacy. She recounts the quote, “I can live without sex, but I cannot live without intimacy.”  Why intimacy is the enemy of Shame, and  helps us explore why we’re so bad at friendship and genuine connection.  We lament the loss of good friendship stories in the culture and Erin acts as a friendship coach for Malcolm and Slim.  

If you’ve ever wondered why Christian “community” doesn’t always feel communal—this conversation is for you.

Listen in, laugh a bit, wince a bit, and maybe learn how to be a better friend.
