Episode Description

You were never too sensitive. You were always too wonderful to be suppressed. Christians have been told to be grateful, to give up understanding and... always be "closing" on converting others. American Christianity has a book making the rounds claiming that empathy is dangerous—a kind of emotional weakness that leads people astray. That it’s “soft on sin.” Join Paul and Ashley Swearengin for the 🎙 Evangelicalish Sunday Livestream and decide if Empathy is toxic — or if this is just toxic theology? #Evangelicalish #ReligiousRightReligiouslyWrong - #ProgressiveChristian #SpiritualDeconstruction #QueerTheology #FaithAfterReligion #HolyRebellion #SacredRebuttals
