About this listen

 This is a talk show by progressive Christians for… well, we don’t care who listens. We want to bring up conversations that we know are happening in a lot of Christian communities and bring them to the forefront, with some levity and our tongues planted firmly in cheek. We know there are a lot of people of faith who support equal rights for everyone, who know that love is love, who believe that #BlackLivesMatter, who want to engage with faith in a different way than their parents did, and who want to replace the Christian patriarchy with a new cult of the sacred feminine led by Ian McKellen — and we want to give those communities a platform. We’re here. We’re tolerant. Get used to it… until we get canceled.Copyright 2023 The Magdalene Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Politics & Government Social Sciences Spirituality

    Well, it’s happened, folks. We’ve been cancelled – by ourselves. No, not really, but we do have two big announcements to make. First, CJ will be stepping down from co-host to occasional guest host (and he will be sorely missed). And second, after next week, we will be taking a hiatus as Isaac adjusts to dad life and ponders whether he likes Brian enough to keep podcasting. We’ll be back with new formats and new ideas or we’ll drift off into the ether. In the meantime, we reminisce over what we’ve accomplished, give some simmering church takes, and answer some mailbag questions.

    41. The Atrocities of Gay Conversion Therapy

    Content Warning: We discuss gay conversion therapy and Netflix’s documentary Pray Away in this episode.

    The documentary, Pray Away, follows four members of Exodus International, a global conversion therapy advocate. This was going on behind our backs all along. So few were aware of how prevalent it really was. So much of the anti-gay movement was tied up in fears around the AIDS epidemic, and the church drove a big part of that. We discuss some of the history surrounding the documentary, how gay conversion therapy still exists today, and whether – in light of this – the church is salvageable, or if we should just burn the whole thing down.

    This could be the one that gets us canceled. Who’d have thought it would come to the point of defending a Will Willimon article? The article is presented as a conversation between Stanley Hauerwas and Will Willimon on the dangers of providing pastoral care and, honestly, they bring up some good points. 99% of seminarians expect to go out challenging people’s theological beliefs and pushing boundaries, but when they get there they find that it’s not what people want. On top of that, pastors are not trained as counsellors. Pastoral work should be the job of the whole church, and that shouldn’t be a controversial thing to say. Maybe the reason people are upset is they feel like their cushy jobs are being exposed?
