On this week's episode Jonny, Rae, and Pastor Gerald sat down with theology professor Dr. Christina Hitchcock to discuss the lamentable ways, at least here in America, evangelicals have neglected single people, and the biblically valorized status of singleness. Prepare for a brutally honest rebuke of the churches idealization of marriage and its impact on the current sexual climate in America.
