Alistair Begg recently made evangelical headlines with some advice he gave to a grandmother on attending her grandson's wedding to a transgender person. The response has been mixed to say the least. Some supporting, others condemning, but it seems we've lost the ability to disagree and hash out why we disagree in the evangelical realm. In this episode Josh invites Brady Cone on to discuss the Begg situation, how to disagree amicably, and whether Begg's advice was wrong or right.

info_outlineWe’re going to be talking about a video by Big Think that tries to understand why evangelicals voted for Donald Trump for president. The man in the video, Reza Aslan, theorizes about several different reasons he believes that evangelicals acted out of character and voted for a man he did not think they would have voted for.
Both Tim and I believe this video completely misses the whole reason Donald Trump was elected. It seems to us that Mr. Aslan is reaching for some explanation that is completely unnecessary. We talk more about it in the podcast.
