Good Christian People

Coming back from the break, we catch up on the past two weeks, take a look at what’s ahead, and share some cut content from previous episodes.

Let’s try this whole “Christian Movie” thing again. This time, we know what we’re walking into. This week, we watch “Small Group” to see if there can be such a thing as a good Christian movie. We have no idea how the other guys feel about it. Let’s talk about it.

We have access to the most creative mind ever, and yet, our art often pales in comparison to what the world offers? Why is this? What qualities are present, or are missing, in our art, and what should we desire from our artists? Also, we give our best pitches for our own Christian movies and the industry would be in good hands if we were given control.

In our effort to discuss Christian art, we foolishly watch a movie that is entirely unchristian...and you get to listen to us apologize and complain about it for 80 minutes! What fun!

“Cancel Culture” is everyone’s new favorite thing to hate, but also, it’s often our first reaction to something we disagree with. Today, we take a look at the history of Cancel Culture, the Church’s role in it, and how we should respond. We talk Dr. Seuss, Gina Carano, and Tim and Jeff have the biggest fight of their friendship. It's a whole thing!

When the people we trust to guide us spiritually have public moral failures, the damage is considerable. How do we deal with the sinner? How do we deal with the victims? What do we do as those who trusted in these leaders? What do we do in the tension?

We conclude our series on racial reconciliation by bringing back Dr. Adam Alvarez, Brandon Morris, and new guest, Jeremy Edger, to revisit and work through some of the discussions of this past series. This powerful conversation is not to be missed.

Buckle up for an amazing episode! We continue in our series on racial reconciliation and we are joined by Christian journalist, Maina Mwaura, who shares his perspectives on race and the Church. We’ll jump into some great topics, such as the summer riots and the SBC CRT controversy, as well as the importance of racial reconciliation to the Millennials and Gen-Z.

This week, we have the privilege of being joined by Dr. Kevin Smith, the Executive Director of the Baptist Convention of MD/DE. As we continue pursuing racial reconciliation, we want to spend some time addressing the state of the Evangelical Church, honestly look at the history of Southern Baptists, and try to make sense of where we are now. "Deflection Boy" t-shirts and bumper stickers will be made available...if we ever start doing merch.

Covid rears its ugly head and makes us socially distance in different zip codes - but we make it work! We continue in our series on the pursuit of racial reconciliation with a dear friend of the show, Brandon Morris. We tackle everything from the significance of names, the beauty of multicultural churches, the reality of individual and systemic racism, and movies. So many movies! It is an incredible conversation!
