Religion on the Mind

I am leaving this review in a slightly desperate attempt to see if this host, who has great guests and topics, can get some coaching on his interview and listening skills. I’m also surprised that a trained therapist is this poor at reflective listening and not actually extending his guests’ presence. Listening to his Brad Strawn interview and while I’m deeply interested in the topic, I’m so frustrated with the mode I probably won’t finish it. This could be such a great resource but is tough to listen to.

I want to like this show, great guests, but the interviewer interrupts often and uses his questions mostly as a springboard to discuss his own thoughts.

Don’t be fooled. Dan presents himself has a “liberal Christian.” It’s important to note that “liberal Christians” don’t exist. Dan is nothing short of an apostate heretic—as are most of his guests. He has turned his back on biblical fidelity, presents false ideas of “what the gospel really is”, and encourages others to follow him away from YHWH and toward hollow, man-made fictions that will only lead to destruction. The only redeeming value of listening is that it can help arm actual Christians for the kind of nonsense arguments that we need to be prepared to engage.

I’m giving it a 5-star because I like what you’re doing and I want it to be successful, but dude, we get it…you were in an emo band and are a dr now. Stop making the conversation about you, please.
