Why do we worship? How do we worship? Is it all about singing? What about when it becomes emotional manipulation? Or is it more about connecting to God? Plus, singer/songwriter (and former Bachelorette contestant) Brady Toops as our Heretic of the Week!

#038: Worship: Is Jesus My Girlfriend? (HOTW: Brady Toops)

Heretic Happy Hour is an unapologetically irreverent, crass, and sometimes profound conversation about the intersection of culture and the Christian faith. Hosts Keith Giles and Matthew J. Distefano, alongside a rotating panel of guest hosts that include theologians and therapists, professors and prophets, mystics and misfits, pull no punches and leave no stones unturned. For some serious sacred cow-tipping, there’s nothing better than spending an hour of your time with us.

New shows every Tuesday, with bonus episodes on Fridays and Sundays. Relaunching May 7!

For today's Bonus Show, Keith and Matthew continue the conversation about the very dangerous false white gospel, and even challenge Sean McDowell to address it on his YouTube channel instead of worrying about the so-called "threat" of deconstruction.
