  • Post Woke | The Apologist's Bookshelf
    2026/05/09

    Neil Shenvi and Pat Sawyer have written a powerful book asserting a biblical vision of race, gender, and sexuality.

This podcast covers the four pillars of contemporary critical theory and fallacies of those espousing woke ideas. This is a book we should all read.
