We dive into part 2 of our conversation about social media and society.

This is the first of 2 podcasts we did on Social Media and society.

In this episode of The Gray Podcast, we're talking about Freedom of Speech, what it means, and why most people misapply and misuse it by thinking they can say whatever they want and apply the freedom of speech rule.

In this episode of The Gray Podcast, we take a break from church-related talk and take on a little different topic. We started out asking the question, "Would the hit TV show, The Office, be allowed on TV today?", If not, is it due to our culture becoming too sensitive to certain topics, or some other reason?

We ended by talking about the good and bad of labeling individuals, and use of pronouns.

In this episode of The Gray Podcast, we start diving into the topic of Misogyny in the Church (and beyond) and its impact on society.

Is the Bible a misogynistic book? Or has it just been defined as such to shape/stifle the role women can play in the Church?

In this episode of The Gray Podcast, we start our exploration of Mental Health, what it means, its history within the church, and why mental health has such a stigma.
