Episode description

Some Christians are calling for Chip and Joanna Gaines to be cancelled because their new HBO home improvement show features a married same-sex couple. David French and Skye Jethani discuss whether it's really a principled stand for traditional Christian values, or a target of opportunity for online trolls. Scenes of starvation in Gaza are provoking international outrage, and even Israeli human rights organizations are now calling the situation a "genocide." As Israel's most important ally, what is America's responsibility? And season 4 of "The Bear" includes powerful themes of repentance and redemption.
