Drawing Boundaries?

Drawing Boundaries?

We wonder what it means to be be a Christian. How do you decide where the boundary markers are? From Hawaiian religion to Scientology to Islam and Mormonism to the Gospel Coalition, we ask some tough questions. And perhaps the toughest of all: does any of it really matter? 1:30 – The Boys are Back Together! 4:00 – Matt and Hawaiian Religion 11:00 – Gary Marshall and Giveaway Winner! 13:00 – Clay and the Church of Scientology 25:30 – Billy Corgan and Christian Rock 33:00 – Who's In? Who's Out? How do we tell? 50:30 – Piper, Keller, Lewis and MacDonald
