<p>You know what the social gospel is even if you’ve never heard of it because so much of American Christianity has confused loving God with just being a really "nice" person. In this episode we talk about Christ as Lion and Lamb and how that applies to our personal lives. We also talk the pitfalls of confusing these things, why gentle parenting misses the Gospel, and the need to be able to cause righteous damage.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/nice-or-kind/">Nice or Kind</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>Arlie Hochschild was the sociologist and second wave feminist that coined the term "the second shift" in reference to mothers who had full-time jobs in the workforce as well as at home.

<p>"The Feminine Mystique" by Betty Friedan is often credited with kicking off the second wave of feminism. Both the book and the movement focused on freeing women from the constraints of being wives and mothers without ever think to ask, "Should we free women from being wives and mothers?"</p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/feminism-is-poison-character-studies-from-the-second-wave-part-two/">Feminism is Poison: Character Studies from the Second Wave (Part One)</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>Let’s pull up a chair and talk about a social justice buzzword: privilege. The world tells you it’s one thing, but what does God have to say about it? How should Christians think about their privilege?</p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/privilege-intersectional-doctrine-resentment/">Privilege: The Intersectional Doctrine of Resentment</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>

<p>This week Summer talks the Cameron Todd Willingham case. Willingham was put to death for setting his house on fire, resulting in the death of his three children. But his case wasn't cut and dry. His Led Zeppelin posters turned the public's opinion against him. Once a world-renowned fire scientist got involved, the evidence that put Willingham away became heavily circumspect. So what do we do in a world where justice is desired, vengeance is common, the courts are corrupt, and "science" can't always be trusted? </p> <p>The post <a href="https://sheologians.com/justice-science-death-penalty/">Justice, Science, & The Death Penalty</a> appeared first on <a href="https://sheologians.com">Sheologians</a>.</p>
