Church infrastructure is failing pastors.  Why are they given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to extra-marital affairs? Was it a misdirected zeal for the sake of the gospel when Tchividjian’s elders tried to keep his affair hidden?  Why are narcissists attracted to the Pastoral profession? Also, Joey kicks alligators, Matt has a theory about Stockholm Syndrome in pets and we have a short interview with BC clubber Silas George.

Toby is an active Campus Pastor of their church during Joey’s one-month sabbatical.  Joey is depressed and Toby’s doesn’t choose his words wisely.  Know what that means?  Recipe for disaster.  The two apologize after their bickering takes up the majority of the podcast, leaving enough time to discuss potential impact Robots can have on the prostitution/porn industry and to marriages.   Sponsors and Links Texture - http://texture.com/badchristian  AudioFeed Festival - http://badchristianday.com  House of Heroes - http://thehouseofheroes.com

Is physically cheating on your wife with another woman worse than looking at porn? When should a Pastor lose his job and what sort of benefits should he get? Yeah, that’s right, we’re the experts. Matt is the King of BadChristian expansion. There’s so much going on that Joey and Toby find out about new projects via social media. Also we get back into it with Scott Mellinger about what it means to be an atheist and Joey asks a bunch of stupid questions.   Sponsors and Links: TrackR - http://thetrackr.com  AudioFeed Festival 2016 - http://badchristianday.com 

Emo-less Matt processes the passing of his favorite Grandparent and Toby calls BS on a Holy Spirit encounter Joey apparently had while watching a Christian movie.  This episode was recorded way past every one’s bedtime but hey, you got to do what you got to do.

That’s right, Toby hits the big 4-0! And, oh yeah, no girls allowed at his birthday party. Also, why are Christians so dogmatic in their stances on art and entertainment? And Matt goes off on the education system because he knows everything about everything. This episode is a real tearjerker!
