Hypocrisy or Consistency? The Church and Sexual Sins

In this episode of The Thinking Fellows, the hosts take on a challenging question: Are Christians hypocritical when it comes to sexual sins? This discussion is often raised in conversations about LGBTQ issues and the Church’s stance on morality.

The Fellows explore how the Sixth Commandment applies to all sexual sins and emphasize that the Church’s teaching should be consistent—preaching repentance and forgiveness for every violation, not just the culturally controversial ones. They also push back on the common accusation that churches are obsessed with homosexuality, pointing out that society, not the Church, is hyper-fixated on the issue.
