Have we become too sensitive? Would The Office be ok in todays culture?

In this episode of The Gray Podcast, we take a break from church-related talk and take on a little different topic.

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

Misogynies Impact On The Church - Good or Bad?
