Leviticus 18:22 -- (sort of) Part 2

The Underwear Story

In honor of the 34th anniversary of the event in question, here is The Underwear Story. This was part of our first podcast series: The Denomination. Alas, the hosting service for that podcast no longer exists. For the curious, this is a story of how a "life event" medical emergency forever changed Derek's underwear preference. At least, on the surface, that is what the story is about.

Corinthians, Timothy, and Everything Else

This is the last episode of season 1 and our last words on why modern evangelical conservative Christianity has it all wrong when it comes to homosexuality, anything else in the LGBTQ+ universe, or sexuality in general. We tie it all together in this episode. All of it. Promise. Thanks for listening and maybe in a year or two, Chris and Derek will write a record season 2. Whoo-hoo. Also, if you have ideas, feedback, threats, or love notes you want to share with Christ and/or Derek, find us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/RiskingDamnation [https://www.facebook.com/RiskingDamnation].

Romans 1 and Homosexuality: A Study in Cause & Effect

Romans 1 is the favorite chapter for those who condemn homosexuality in spite of it being often read out of context in every respect. Chris and Derek do their best to unpack this passage but, alas, it was difficult. In fact, it took us a couple attempts and there were a few technical challenges as well. Apologies for the variable sound quality. Still, this is the episode where we make our strongest defense for being inclusive and accepting of the LGBTQ+ community in Christianity and our churches.

Finishing Leviticus

It only sounds like we are still talking about Leviticus. Really, this episode ties a neat little bow on everything before Paul weighs in on homosexuality in Romans 1. Even more context, ancient languages, customs, practices, and more. Not an exhaustive treatment but we really tried to be fair, honest, and cover all the corners.

Leviticus 18:22 -- (sort of) Part 2

Chris and Derek simply tear into everything involving the culture, scholarship, and the original languages not only of Leviticus but how the verse was translated and interpreted over lo these many millenia. This episode digs into how Lev 18:22 has influenced simply everything.
