Joey, in this brand new episode fresh after reading Faith After Doubt, probes many topics including the uneasiness Christians have when people find some truth in other religions, whether Christian leaders use fear to control "flocks," and how our beliefs about God will most certainly affect how we represent God and God’s kingdom. 

Brian McLaren is committed to Jesus now more than ever, but equally more than ever, is staunchly opposed to Christianity being supreme over all over religions. Brian also updates us on the upcoming follow up to “Faith After Doubt,” “Do I Stay Christian” (release Spring 2022)."

Ellen, Jed and Joey discuss masturbation, how their church-upbringings addressed sex in youth ministry and how church leaders 20 years ago, tried to use Joey’s “yet to be conceived” daughters to scare him from porn viewing/addiction.
