Show Notes
In today's episode, we're discussing the recent season finale of the Netflix reality dating show "Love Is Blind" and the two women who left their fiancés at the altar over political differences! Really, the men should have noticed the red flags sooner, but at least they dodged those bullets at the last minute. We also break down some more bad theology from the creators of the 2022 documentary "1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture," thanks to the promotion of the recent web series. We debunk the creators' claims about the Bible's condemnation of homosexuality and the LGBT community stemming from a translation error, and we go back to scripture to remember how God defines marriage and what our standard ought to be.
