In this episode, we acknowledge the toxic rape culture in America but also contrast nuanced ideas against God's word. We also caution believers to examine what organizations espouse and hold ideals against scripture to see if it is something you can be a part of, or at least know where the pitfalls are so you don't fall in them yourself.
