555: "The Article" & Biblical Critical Theory with Christopher Watkin

The Gospel Coalition published an article last week that brought together every divergent faction of the church to say, "Ick!"

Then, new data finds liberal teens are struggling with depression at higher rates on average than conservative teens. What's the explanation? And Phil talks to professor Christopher Watkin about his book, "Biblical Critical Theory: How the Bible's Unfolding Story Makes Sense of Modern Life and Culture."
