Episode Spiritual Abuse, Celebrity Culture & Greed: Let's Talk About Church Hurt (Part 2)

0:00 1:18:22

What happens when the values of the world start creeping into the Church? In this episode, we continue our deeply honest conversation about modern Christianity, church culture, hierarchy, power, prosperity, grace, accountability, women, suffering and what it really means to follow Jesus. We unpack why Christian communities can become more concerned with status than service, why grace should never become an excuse for bad behaviour, how harmful theology can be used to protect people in positions of power, and why our faith has to confront the way we think about everything — from money and relationships to justice and how we treat the vulnerable. Most importantly, we ask: are we actually becoming like Jesus, or have we made other people the standard for our faith?
