    Are you familiar with the doctrine of male headship? That system that

  • Episode 26 - Profoundly Perplexing Pomiculture with Daniel Rogers
    How can we know who’s right and who’s wrong? Is there any hope for
    Christian Nationalists? My friend and classmate Daniel Rogers shares his
    experience with the cognitive dissonance he encountered as a Bible-thumping
    fundamentalist that ultimately led him to a whole new way of being and
    loving. The catalyst? Fruit. Our conversation is sometimes goofy, sometimes
    profound, but always comes back to Jesus’ teaching: you shall know them by
    their fruit.

  • Episode 25 - Chosen Family with Rev. Dr. David N. Moore, Jr.
    How do we change our minds and hearts? The Rev. Dr. David N. Moore, Jr.
    believes in the power of storytelling to catalyze our awakening. But what
    about when, despite our best efforts, people refuse to budge? David
    challenges Anni to expect to encounter our modern-day Judases, and to use
    her time to find chosen family instead of trying to make everyone happy in
    the name of diplomacy and unity. Drawing from Jesus’ teachings about
    judgement, David asserts that what will ultimately save the world is
    self-aware folks properly judging the world and calling for justice.
