Ep 58: The Jesus You Thought You Knew --
Friday Jun 09, 2023
Friday Jun 09, 2023
Most people who reject Jesus don't reject him but an idea of him. With so many voices talking about Jesus, who can we really trust? And is it worth the effort even finding out? Yes!
Find out why Dale spent his COVID years telling the stories of Jesus from the book of Mark. Jonalyn interviews Dale about the whys behind his “Stories of Jesus for the Modern Family”. From learning like the 13th disciple to emigrating to the country of Jesus, Dale explains what drove him to this year-long project. Here, he is “handing people off to Jesus”. If you only listen to one Back Porch Conversation, this is it.

Ep 57.5: ESG Jesus
Friday Jun 02, 2023
Friday Jun 02, 2023
You've heard of "woke" corporations. But what makes them so? Why do so many fall lockstep together even when the public doesn't want to buy it? That's what ESG and DEI is all about.
Dale and Jonalyn explain how these terms, like ESG and DEI, have seduced Christians. If you care about seeing the ways the purity fetish has seeped into the Progressive Christian mind, start with this one. These devices are just authoritarianism and spiritual abuse with new features. Favorite quote: “If your Jesus believes the same things the Post Modern Marxist coropration's believe, someone has tweaked your Jesus.”
