“Obedient Children” (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast; It’s in the Code Ep 113)

In this episode, Dan continues decoding a card from a church bulletin that outlines the features of a particular church. This week’s focus is the second item listed on the card, “obedient children.” 

This description will strike many as weird or “cringy,” but why? What is it doing on this list, and what does it tell us about this church’s views on gender, the family, and its vision of proper social order? And how does it relate to the focus of the previous episode, “Smiling Wives”? Check out this week’s episode to find out.
