Is Judging the Ultimate Sin? Unpacking the Chip & Joanna Gaines Controversy PLUS Q&A
HGTV's favorite home-renovating duo, Chip & Joanna Gaines, recently found themselves at the center of controversy after featuring a same sex couple on their new show. While they're known for flipping houses, some Christians are now asking, have they flipped their theology too?
In this solo midweek podcast episode, Frank addresses the cultural pressure Christians face when it comes to affirming homosexuality, and whether it’s ever wrong for believers to judge the sinful behavior of others. Tune in as Frank reacts to the backlash coming from both sides and answers questions like:
-- Did Jesus tell us never to judge?
-- Is it wrong to address sinful behavior that can hurt other people?
-- What's the difference between judging and being judgmental?
-- What are the 4 most popular secular and cultural beliefs that have made their way into Christianity?
-- Are our feelings a trustworthy guide for moral decisions?
-- How did Chip Gaines miss the mark during his recent tweet directed towards "modern American Christians"?
-- What’s the best way to correct someone without being obnoxious?
Later in the show, Frank also answers more of your listener questions including:
-- Is there a New Testament version of Jeremiah 29:11 that can be applied to modern-day Christians?
-- Can people be saved if they believe baptism is essential for salvation?
-- What are biblical chiasms, and how do they affect biblical interpretation?
-- What evidence shows the disputed long ending of Mark WAS in the original?
