The Underwear Story 1:18:08

8M ago1:18:08

1:18:08

In honor of the 34th anniversary of the event in question, here is The Underwear Story. This was part of our first podcast series: The Denomination. Alas, the hosting service for that podcast no longer exists. For the curious, this is a story of how a "life event" medical emergency forever changed Derek's underwear preference. At least, on the surf…

Episode 88 - Creating Authentic and Durable Motivation 43:24

8M ago43:24

43:24

We know consistency is a key component to success. But if everyone knows this, why do so many people struggle staying consistent with their work and training? The answer is simple, a lack of motivation. The reality is, even for top professionals, motivation comes and goes. Luckily, there are some changes that can be made to make it easier to create…

Corinthians, Timothy, and Everything Else 55:45

9M ago55:45

55:45

This is the last episode of season 1 and our last words on why modern evangelical conservative Christianity has it all wrong when it comes to homosexuality, anything else in the LGBTQ+ universe, or sexuality in general. We tie it all together in this episode. All of it. Promise. Thanks for listening and maybe in a year or two, Chris and Derek will …

Romans 1 and Homosexuality: A Study in Cause & Effect 1:34:50

9M ago1:34:50

1:34:50

Romans 1 is the favorite chapter for those who condemn homosexuality in spite of it being often read out of context in every respect. Chris and Derek do their best to unpack this passage but, alas, it was difficult. In fact, it took us a couple attempts and there were a few technical challenges as well. Apologies for the variable sound quality. Sti…

Finishing Leviticus 49:31

9M ago49:31

49:31

It only sounds like we are still talking about Leviticus. Really, this episode ties a neat little bow on everything before Paul weighs in on homosexuality in Romans 1. Even more context, ancient languages, customs, practices, and more. Not an exhaustive treatment but we really tried to be fair, honest, and cover all the corners.…

Leviticus -- Part 1 1:00:15

10M ago1:00:15

1:00:15

Can't really talk about how the Bible feels about homosexuality (and all other non-CIS sex and gender issues) without talking at least a little bit about Leviticus. Rather than be dismissive of Leviticus for simple "don't worry about it" reasons, Derek and Chris go in-depth establishing an exegetical method, theological framework, cultural milieu, …

The Texas Chaplains School Counselor Emergency Episode 58:11

10M ago58:11

58:11

In early September, 2023, the Texas legislature passed a bill allowing (unlicensed) chaplains to act as public school counselors. Derek & Chris react, um, let's say, strongly against this law. Enjoy! Errata: while describing the CPE program, I say something about having to do 15-20 hours of actual chaplaincy which is wildly inaccurate and very low.…

The 19s: What Genesis 19 and Judges 19 Say About Homosexuality 1:02:50

10M ago1:02:50

1:02:50

At long last, Derek & Chris dispense with introductory material and dive head first into the Sodom and Gomorrah passage: Genesis 19. Then, as only the skilled academics can, they segue gracefully into Judges 19. "Trust me, this will totally work," said Derek to Chris before recording. But seriously, this podcast destroys any notion that those towns…

The Facets of Human Sexuality 1:10:27

10M ago1:00:54

1:00:54

A whole episode dedicated to explaining all aspects of human sexuality from genetic/assigned, identity, expression, orientation, tastes and beyond. Like all theories, it provides categories and context. Correction: The book Perv by Jesse Bering is cited numerous times. He, in turn, cites research done likely in the 1990s about fetishes and kinks re…
