Ep. 316 - JLTY Plus: The Sin of Empathy with Dr. Joe Rigney

Dr. Joe Rigney joins Kira to talk about empathy - what is it, why is it so destructive and how have we misunderstood it both in the church and society in general? Rigney discusses his new book, “The Sin of Empathy,” and why we need to “sober-minded” rather than peddlers of pity.  “The main virtue that I commend is sober-mindedness. This is, another biblical term. And if you think about what does the word sober-minded mean, well, normally you think of sober in terms of drunkenness and alcohol, right? If you get drunk on alcohol, you're not sober, and so you need to sober up. The basic biblical claim then is you can be drunk on more than just alcohol.” Rigney is Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College. He lives in Moscow, ID with his wife and three sons.

Ep. 315 - Black America Is Normalizing All the Wrong Things

This week Kira takes on the controversial Texas stabbing that has ignited yet another race war in the media. Motivations of the case aside, Kira explores some deeper questions: Where are all our Black male leaders and what exactly are we normalizing in our own community? How does this case underscore a larger issue within the Black American community? What are our responsibilities to ourselves and the bridging of the racial divide? What would happen if we changed how we communicated our priorities? This isn’t an episode about who Kira thinks is right or wrong in this case. This is an episode about what Kira thinks is right and wrong about how we’re addressing this case.
