INTRODUCING: WIth All Due Respect

This podcast is part of the Hope Media production.

Less aggro, more conversation. Is it even possible to have a deep discussion without it descending into chaos? Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit think yes, and want to show the rest of us how to do it. There’s plenty of things they disagree on: free will, feminism, where you should send your kids to school and what type of church you should go to. But there are also plenty of other things that they have in common. They want to talk about all these things with conviction. But they also want the conversation to be constructive. Tune in to find out if that’s possible.

This episode has been one of the highest listened to episodes in the WADR catalogue! With schoolies ongoing as well as the holiday season just over the horizon, we'd like to replay this ep and to stir some thought and discussion.

Discuss!? Glad you asked - head to our WADR group here on Facebook!

In this episode, the WADR team talk about how to have better sex. No, this is not Megan and Michael's opportunity to present the evangelical version of the karma sutra. Rather, they want to talk about the ways Christianity has got sex right - or a lot of the time wrong - and what can be done better for everyone's sake.
First up, Megan and Michael invite on to the show the co-author of the influential Christian book The Great Sex Rescue, Sheila Wray Gregoire. Sheila shares what she and her co-authors discovered when they talked to 22,000 Christian women.
Then the WADR duo talk about the Australian #metoo moment and what they think about consent education.
Finally, we finish the show with the film Give Me Sex Jesus, a title that sells itself. And consider this your warning. This episode is talking about sex, so it is definitely for mature audiences.

How well do you know the most well-known verse in the Bible?

In this limited series, two New Testament experts explore and explain the build-up, detail and consequence of John 3:16. Cass Kwakye from Whitley College in Melbourne, Australia, and Tom Habib from Moore Theological College in Sydney, Australia, share a passion for John’s gospel and the impact it has upon everyone and everything, forever. In conversation with Hope 1032’s Ben McEachen, Tom and Cass guide us through the riches and promises flowing from “For God so loved the world…”

We hope the John 3:16 podcast will resource your faith with powerful truths about belief in God’s Son that leads to eternal life.
