The Naked Gospel Why Do We Believe Sin is Beautiful and Continue to Pursue it?? w/ Dr. Joe Wooddell
Whether we're pastors, missionaries, or everyday Christians, we know that sin is wrong, harmful, and that we'll feel miserable afterward. So, why do we go back to the same sins over and over again? Why do pastors who know and teach God's truth still pursue sexual sin? Why do Christians watch porn and have affairs as much as non-Christians? In short, why do we believe that sin is beautiful and continue to pursue it? Dr. Joe Wooddell has a Ph.D. in the study of beauty and joins us to talk about the power of beauty upon our beliefs and actions.
