“Hello! I don’t normally write podcast reviews, but I wanted to humbly offer up a response to last week’s episode on campus protests. For years I’ve so deeply appreciated CT’s efforts towards examining complicated stories in good faith, especially in such a culturally fractured moment in the US. You’ve taken risks in your reporting and editorial decisions that I so admire, whether or not I agree with them. Yet I was disheartened by the attitude of disdain and the narrowness of the supporting interviews offered about the student protests. There is already a glut of editorial takes on the protest that are generally, “as adults in the room, we find these student silly and misguided.” I wonder who these takes are written for. With that tone of disdain, it would be difficult to claim that this opinion is offered as nourishment and guidance for young people in a painfully contentious time. Someone on the podcast asked if the protests signifies a failure of discipleship. How could a young person let themselves to be discipled by adults to talk about them like this?
When I was in college and electrified by new ideas, I often found myself either dismissed by adults or being recruited by adults to be used for their own movements. Now in my 30s, I look back and wish that an adult had instead offered to care for me through that moment of transformation. I wonder what the good people at CT think of this. Hope to hear more thoughtful discussions soon.”

Once you hear him you may still disagree but...”Read full review »
