Wholly Buyable
Advertising Creative Director Chas Bayfield takes you on a road trip through the Bible, leaving one significant item of baggage at home- religion. He tells the story from Genesis to Revelation and explains how this more than any other book has impacted western culture. Wholly Buyable is a podcast for people who might never normally pick up a Bible but who feel they should perhaps know a little more about it than they currently do. After all, the Bible is a book for everyone, not just believers. Listeners will be taken through action sequences worthy of a 21st century TV drama. They will be seduced by erotic poetry and bombarded with hallucinatory visions. Fill your boots with betrayal, brutality, beauty and, believe it or not, comedy. This isn’t your average Bible podcast; no one will be told what to believe but everyone who joins in the journey will hopefully feel that they know the world’s best-selling book a little better.
Wholly Buyable
31. Sex Crimes (Leviticus 20-21)
Episode 31: Leviticus 20-21
Is this the most divisive topic in Christianity?
You'd think Christians would be concerned with injustice, the global poor, self improvement, kindness, generosity. Loving one another. But no.
Many Christians remain obsessed with what consensual adults get up to in a bedroom, especially of those adults are of the same sex.
Regardless of all the sins listed in the Bible, for many, homosexuality is a taboo too far and the end result of all this has not been pretty.
Our suggestion is to listen to what the Bible says and work out for yourselves what it means.
