#321 Lessons We Can Learn from the Chip and Joanna Gaines Controversy

Chip and Joanna Gaines made headlines last week when their new show, "Back to the Frontier," prominently featured a same-sex couple with children procured through IVF and surrogacy. The significant backlash from their largely Christian base has caused quite the stir. But this isn't the first time the Gaineses have been tested in the public square. In today's podcast, I go back to 2016 to when they were criticized for not featuring a same-sex couple on their hit show "Fixer Upper," and how their response back then made the way for their compromise in 2025. Plus, I hit on three very important principles of discernment that are especially important when assessing the public confessions of faith from celebrities and influencers.
