Christianity Without Compromise: Following Jesus Beyond the Culture WarsThe Myth of Good Christian Parenting - Kelsey Kramer McGinnis & Marissa Franks BurtThe Bible isn’t exactly a Christian parenting book, despite what some popular books might suggest. Kelsey Kramer McGinnis, musicologist and journalist, and Marissa Franks Burt, novelist and theological educator, are on Christianity Without Compromise with host Jake Doberenz to dissect the common myths behind Christian parenting advice. They explore how evangelical parenting books sold a prosperity gospel-like promise—if you parent “biblically,” your kids will follow Jesus. They trace the rise of this parenting empire, unpack key influences like James Dobson and Chuck Swindoll, and explain how poor theology has led to confusion, fear, and broken relationships across generati...

Saved by the CitySpanking Is Not a Love Language: Parenting in a Post-Dobson World + Marissa Franks BurtIf every generation of parents has their anxieties, the post-evangelical Millennial parent is perhaps most angsty about how to raise their kids as Christians — without all the baggage. Many parents our age — especially those who grew up evangelical — were raised in a time when Christian parenting books were ubiquitous and none more so than James Dobson's. Dobson, who died this summer, was the founder of Focus on the Family and the impact of his teachings on parenting — from discipline, to parental authority, to obedience, gender and sexuality — is hard to understate. On this episode, Katelyn and Roxy examine Dobson's legacy and...
