In this episode, Tim sits down with Dr. Andrew Bauman — author, researcher, and founder of the Christian Counseling Center — for one of the most eye-opening conversations we’ve ever had on the podcast.
Dr. Bauman recently gathered data from 2,800 women serving in Protestant churches, uncovering patterns of sexism, power misuse, and cultural blind spots that many church leaders never see.
We talk about:
• What actually makes a church unsafe
• The shocking data leaders need to hear
• How porn culture has quietly shaped Christian leadership
• Why Paul’s “women be silent” passages may not mean what you think
• The shadow side of ministry leadership
• True intimacy vs. AI-driven fantasy culture
• How pastors can heal their own inner world to lead healthier churches
This episode is not about politics — it’s about becoming a safer, more Christlike church.
