    Ep2: Why Emotion Blocks Honest Debate About Atonement
    Mar 30 2026

    In this episode, we unpack why discussions about penal substitution often get intensely emotional before anyone even opens the Bible. We explore how feelings of guilt, safety, and fear can shut down conversation, and why questioning this popular doctrine can feel like a major red flag to many Christians.
