Over the past few weeks, a discussion has been taking place in the Christian blogosphere. Here's how it went: Christianity Today published a review of Sex and the City.Christianity Today got lots of feedback.Christianity Today defended their review.Ted Slater of Boundless.org (a website of Focus on the Family) accuses Christianity Today of "Relishing Sexual Perversion."Everyone else picks a side. Other noteworthy links: Jeffery Overstreet posts a long defense of the review. On the Boundless Podcast, Tim Slater discusses the issue. Tim Slater from Boundless clarifies his Open Letter. Jeffery Overstreet responds to Tim Slater's clarification. We didn't really want to pick a side, so we blogged an aside which generated quite a bit of discussion. And today we publish a podcast in which Ben and I... well, we don't really pick sides. In this episode, we discuss why Christianity Today was right, why Boundless was wrong, why Christianity Today was wrong, and why Boundless was right. If it all sounds a bit confusing, wait until you hear us try to say it in audible words! Also, we count down our top 5 guidelines Christians should use when deciding whether to see a film. Combine the two lists, and you'll never see a film, ever! Guaranteed! ------- We love feedback.

The hype has calmed down a bit for Iron Man, one of the most wildly successful movies of the summer so far, which makes this a perfect time to sit back and have an in-depth discussion about what many assume to be a morally neutral action film. Is it? Or is it something more? Listen as Ben and Rich discuss that, plus our top 5 Sci-Fi Elements. -----------------------------------------------------... read more

If there's one thing that most of us can agree on, it's that popular culture has gone too far in the area of sexuality. For the sake of freedom of speech, showing off beauty, and putting to use "what God gave ya'", men and women have bared it all. And we all know what this is really all about. So where do we draw the line? How far should they go, and how much of it can we take? If you thought th... read more
If there's one thing that most of us can agree on, it's that popular culture has gone too far in the area of sexuality. For the sake of freedom of speech, showing off beauty, and putting to use "what God gave ya'", men and women have bared it all. And we all know what this is really all about. So where do we draw the line? How far should they go, and how much of it can we take? If you thought the last episode was awkward, wait until you hear Rich and Ben attempting to discuss Pop Culture's Startling Lack of Restraint: Sexuality and Nudity. Also, we offer up our Top 3 Best Love Stories and our Top 3 Worst Love Stories. We love feedback.
