AK47 Season 2 Episode 28: Joshua Harris and Purity Culture

Aaron and Kyle talk about the recent Unbelievable? discussion between the apologist Sean McDowell and filmmaker Jessica van der Wyngaard on Joshua Harris's recent fall from faith and the effect his book, I Kissed Dating Goodbye, on the church and "purity culture."  We have our usual sidetracks in the conversation where we bring up people and topics like Steve Chalk, David Bentley Hart, Quillette, and evolutionary psychology, but we give our overviews of how Sean and Jessica did in the conversations, what purity culture is, people being in the internet spotlight from an early age, the sexual lives of Old Testament figures and h ow purity culture handles it, what we suspect Harris might do next, dating, and more.

The AK47 Podcast Season 1: Episode 37

I interviewed Raymond Blaine Stewart (Ph.D candidate in philosophy at the University of Oklahoma) on the topic of singleness in the church, the gift of singleness, what 1 Corinthians 7 teaches about singleness, and how churches can effectively minister to the single people in its congregation.  Raymond's audio sounds a bit distant in the beginning, but it gets better after a few minutes, so don't worry.
