7 - Toxic Positivity
Episode description
How does American Christianity reconcile being positive, encouraging, and family friendly when the Bible is so... not? In a world of sickness, sin, pain, and suffering, how do light-hearted, well-intentioned Christians help or hurt? Today, we'll take a look at the dangerous positivity that Christians often embody as they seek to address complicated problems with simple, forced happiness, and we'll look at the healthy positivity that the Bible encourages.
