Risking Damnation

By: Derek Brouwer and Christ Wright
  • Summary

  • The podcast that puts the very salvation of the cohosts on the line for all the best reasons. Derek & Chris think this is what Jesus really wants us to do: risk damnation to spread love, truth, and the very best way to be in communion with God. Though devout and pious, we are decidedly not conservative evangelicals. Hopefully, we are a voice of a more sane Christianity.

  • The Underwear Story
    Nov 17 2023

    In honor of the 34th anniversary of the event in question, here is The Underwear Story. This was part of our first podcast series: The Denomination. Alas, the hosting service for that podcast no longer exists.

    For the curious, this is a story of how a "life event" medical emergency forever changed Derek's underwear preference. At least, on the surface, that is what the story is about.

  • Corinthians, Timothy, and Everything Else
    Oct 15 2023

    This is the last episode of season 1 and our last words on why modern evangelical conservative Christianity has it all wrong when it comes to homosexuality, anything else in the LGBTQ+ universe, or sexuality in general. We tie it all together in this episode. All of it. Promise.

    Thanks for listening and maybe in a year or two, Chris and Derek will write a record season 2. Whoo-hoo.

    Also, if you have ideas, feedback, threats, or love notes you want to share with Christ and/or Derek, find us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/RiskingDamnation.

  • Romans 1 and Homosexuality: A Study in Cause & Effect
    Oct 8 2023

    Romans 1 is the favorite chapter for those who condemn homosexuality in spite of it being often read out of context in every respect. Chris and Derek do their best to unpack this passage but, alas, it was difficult. In fact, it took us a couple attempts and there were a few technical challenges as well. Apologies for the variable sound quality.

    Still, this is the episode where we make our strongest defense for being inclusive and accepting of the LGBTQ+ community in Christianity and our churches.
