Enter the Grayzone is where our theories and biases go to die. We come face to face with real people and have to test what we believe. Where black and white answers do more harm than good. Where Truth is as necessary as Grace and there's NO clear pathway forward. In an increasingly complex and confusing world, Christians have the opportunity to boldly engage culture with Truthful living. We also have the responsibility of following in Christ's compassionate example. Conversations related to faith, culture, gender, suicide, moral failure, autism, addiction, family trauma, and so much more.

Should Christians flee from affirming sin at the risk of not evangelizing? What does end time theology say about same-sex attracted people? And are we willing to be as scandalous as Jesus? Pieter L.

When people you've loved and pastored fall prey to the temptations of culture wars, what do you do? When the pastor and theology hasn't changed but the culture around them has, how do we respond faithfully but compassionately? Caleb Campbell addresses these questions and more in this conversation in the Grayzone. Beyond his book, Disarming Leviathan, Caleb and Robby delve into the personal impact of loving people and keeping them engaged in the process of discipleship even when it seems hopeless. https://www.dsbc.church/contributor/caleb-campbell
It's hard to keep up with the changing terms and trends of sexual identities. Even hard is trying to maintain a compassionate yet Biblically faithful approach to loving people who experience challenges in their sexual identities. Dr. Julia Sadusky, co-author of the book Emerging Sexual Identities, gives us compassionate frameworks to navigate this complex topic. This should prove to be a hope-filled and helpful conversation. https://www.juliasadusky.com/about
In this episode we focus on Men's physical and spiritual health all through the transformative power of sharing a cup of coffee after a workout. We chat w/ Lance Rogers of SOLiD Men Australia. The informal discussions following grueling workouts allow men to open up about their lives, struggles, and triumphs. Lance explains that the physical exertion helps break down walls, making participants more receptive to discussing personal challenges. The ‘metaphorical ball’ is passed around, giving each man the opportunity to share as much or as little as they feel comfortable, fostering an environment of trust and support.#Men #mental #healthhttps://www.solidmen.com.au/
