I love how Kirk is going on all these podcast having fun just being human and Amanda is always dope and I love how she don’t care who you are she will still hold you accountable ❤

[@benadek6703]

She needs to hold herself accountable for lying on Myron rolle and owes that man a public apology

My mind is healing from the cognitive dissonance; because FINALLY the two worlds are meeting in this episode.

[@Lalaphive]

I love honest conversations about religion. It really shows who is willing to be real about life and who isn't.

[@Bklyn112]

It was a wonderful conversation. I love Kirk and although I am not Christian, I was Smiling, Stomping, Imagining, and Lifting Every Voice right along with him! However, Kirk's ministry is music, not analytical study of theology. His exegesis that because a group of people changed their lifelong traditions on the word of Jesus/Isa/Isho/Yeshu(a) means that he was the son of G'd is definitely disputable. Either way, please continue these conversations -Dr- Seales. Just putting that out there btw! I see a dissertation coming.

[@TokzanTee1]

My face is still stuck in a cringe from when he said “very powerful and very sexy,” and continued to double down even after she said she didn’t wanna hear that lol 😂 😬

[@orlenecharles6590]

Great conversation. Jesus doesn't need a PR person. He's God!! But Christians just need to do the right thing, be loud about it, and stop the foolishness...stop trying to blend in. Amanda is right! Real Christianity needs to be out there!!!

[@Noise_floorxx]

He does. Clearly. Less and less people subscribe to Christianity because…Christians. Period.

[@YouKnowDOMO]

I Need A Part 2, 3 & 4 To This Conversation Because It’s Sooo Vital To Have Expressed Intellectual Thought Processes Like These That Are Rooted In Love & The Betterment Of Our People! This Is Gooood!

[@francisw3456]

Same! Such a GREAT convo!

[@nickyr3860]

❤❤Yoo I’m glad Kirk said the western christianity practiced today is NOT what they practiced in early christianity. Imma need a Pt.2 about the the non-Biblical beliefs of hell & the rapture and how they have psychologically traumatized Black ppl for generations after slavery.

[@walklikenaomi2238]

As a Christian and lover of Jesus Christ I think this was an amazing conversation ❤ I love the level of intellect and it made me want to go and educate myself more.

[@ketket0725]

Aside from Kirk’s attempts at flirting, I really enjoyed this conversation. When Kirk started breaking down how Jesus awakened a movement that stood for the equality and freedom of ALL people and Amanda pointed out that this is what threatened the political leaders at the time…CHILLS. Faith is really all about connecting to the divine within all of us, taking care od each other, and fighting for each other. I want to join Amandaverse! Thank you Amanda 🙏🏾🤎

Yes...I am uncomfortable listening to him flirt with her like this. Just because it is out in the open doesn't make it innocent. He needed to check himself. I am glad she rebuffed him privately and publicly.

Kirk is my fave and I love all of his interviews…whether he’s being artist Kirk, funny Kirk, vulnerable Kirk…but I think theologian/historian Kirk may be my fave! This was so good! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@sequencestar-us1mm]

I am speechless. This interview deserves an award

[@kohby784]

Amanda and Kirk, I LOVE this real, deep, conversation. I would love more of this conversation with y'all

[@MindEmancipationist]

I'm glad so many people are waking up, decolonizing their minds, and deconstructing religion (tearing down religious narratives). Everything doesn't happen for a reason, and to claim every twist of fate to have some profound meaning, particularly those rooted in poverty, oppression, and injustice, is dangerous, problematic, and a contradiction. It's this kind of thinking that blinds people to systemic issues, impedes empathy, fuels unfair judgments, and contributes to the harmful actions we see all around us.

[@meganmagdelaine]

Amanda is giving Queen of Sheeba vibes here lol 😅 I love it so much because the questions that were asked are very commom concerns and feelings from non christians. We got to the nitty gritty of things and Kirk answered them very well.

[@tashas9531]

Cringe aside, I really enjoyed this conversation. Amanda's questions were thoughtful, as they always are, and I loved his response. Just incredible and well done! I'm going to mosey on down to the Patreon and watch the rest of it!

[@darklawyergirl7]

This is the most balanced, radically honest conversation about religion and faith I have witnessed. I couldn't imagined a better guest to speak on it. Thank you!❤❤

[@qtipp81]

Always loved Kirk. But every interview makes me love and see him in a new way.

[@rhondarosoboro7874]

Amanda. When Kirk stopped you to mention your {magical} nuance. Whew! That made me tear up. What a wonderful interview.

[@toricoltori]

I am a Christian and this conversation was very much needed.

[@indielightly3308]

Ya i noticed that too, I felt uncomfortable for her although she can definately handle her own . When he said that her approach to chastizing his tardiness was sexy... I was like .. wait the topic is faith right?? And he's married and moved past an addiction to porn correct? What's happening right now??? Lol

[@DonBrownII]

the gospel, and the origins of the gospel certainly needs to be discussed in length and in truth. It doesn't happen enough. I appreciate Kirk's message. We have to speak up against that use the Christian faith to harm others, and misuse the faith.

[@katielanellc]

Mannn….this is one of my favorite discussions Amanda. Thank you to you and Kirk Franklin for taking the time to touch on so many important issues concerning faith, religion, spirituality, and Christianity. 🎯🎯💯💯🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@DH-uw3us]

I thought you touched on the faith topic when you interviewed Tabitha Brown. I think it would be interesting to hear a roundtable of Black spiritual leaders (not just Christians) and their points of view on this topic. I was a devout believer my whole life until I hit 30 and started questioning everything. I think faith in the Black community is a conversation worth having because we don't all believe the same thing for various reasons. I think we can all learn from each other.

[@greyescale]

I second this, and request juju to be included!

[@MsButtaP44]

TOTALLY AGREE

[@tamarwilliams4516]

[@monalisa27826]

This was a good 1. I would love to see/hear Amanda in conversation with Jackie Hill Perry.

[@staceyculbertson6784]

Facts.

[@FrankcoOffice-ot3ew]

The sad part about all the this is I'm watching How Christians are being scared and how they are dancing around questions now and how they are not standing up for what is right and what is wrong. I'm not saying everything he said was wrong but the most important things I noticed He was scared and dancing around and it hurts my heart to see how Christians have fallen away and are scared to stand on the truth. This truly hurts

[@Learningisfree808]

[@JBrazill09]

Well said and totally agree.

[@JoLewis-rx7sb]

It is NOT appropriate to say to someone not your wife that she is sexy in anyway, shape or form. Then ask her out for conversation. Amanda understands what's appropriate MORE than he does, so sad.

[@catregime]

Agreed, that was gross.

[@DH-uw3us]

Especially in the #MeToo era we're in now.

[@user-lp6up3yc8t]

He asked her out before their conversation to make up for being late. He most likely got caught up in the conversation and it came out unfortunately while they were filming. 😄 - He's human. My husband got "caught up" once while we were at a party. He was crushing HARD on a woman there. Was all giddy. I was like, "oh my" It was innocent. I let him have his crush moment and he did! Amanda definitely knew how to keep it PROFESSIONAL. Sometimes people flesh act out. She got him right and kept it moving. Being married don't stop you from being human, imo.

[@JoLewis-rx7sb]

@@user-lp6up3yc8t Women aren't allowed that luxury. If his wife kept talking about how attractive someone is and asking him out for conversation, he wouldn't have it.

[@tuamiga_carmela]

i absolutely loved this conversation as i have been currently having this conversation with a friend of mine who is a nonbeliever. very much a conversation not debate or argument. but in these conversations with my friend i find myself feeling inadequate when it comes to "citing my sources". i was reminded of that when mr. franklin mentions the academic part of the bible or religion. ive been googling books to read like this but if anyone else could recommend any books on this i would be greatly apprecitative. amanda has such a great mind, i hope she can continue to be shown her flowers

[@tula_tracey]

[@sportysmith123]

I’ve been excited about this interview since Amanda posted about it on her instagram and I’ve been patiently waiting. Thank you Amanda for this interview.

[@rhondaroberts7275]

I totally enjoyed this conversation. Their dialogue was very informative and thought-provoking based on how people need to respond based on their individual walks with their religious and/or spiritual walks. I liked their chemistry. Amanda stood in her beliefs and asked great questions and sought clarification when warranted to delve deeper to make his responses make sense from different perspectives. The comments about his behavior are representative of many things of what's wrong with our society as a whole. We've become so judgemental, assumptive, and disrespectful with double standards perceptions. Kirk's attempts at humor fell flat sometimes 😂. I do not perceive any ill-will that is being communicated in these comments. I will leave it at that. I am hoping Amanda or staff will read all comments and offer her opinion based on the overall interaction.

[@AaronMaybinArt]

[@zerandrianmorris]

I’m profoundly turned off by the beginning. Ewww Kirk. His ego was bruised by being challenged around his tardiness and instead of simply saying I apologize, he brought it to the show then was on some sexualization. Sir. I’m sorry you had to experience that and I’m glad you kept it in so the world can see. UPDATE: This energy from him is cringe. I ain’t gon make it. 🥲

[@catregime]

Absolutely….so yuck.

[@MaxineShaw_84]

Damn. I entered the live chat just a touch late and didn't see that part until now. The game *too many* men play when they feel you've been _difficult_ 🙄 is to make a pass in order to set you off so everybody else can focus on your reaction instead of their transgression. I don't know how Tammy is still in it because ain't enough money & status for you to continue embarrassing me all over the place.

So glad I decided to tune in. I’ve had a neg opinion of Christians and Christianity due to the judgement and dismissiveness I experienced as a Buddhist in childhood from some fam and friends. I often got “oh you not saved?” when I told them I practiced Buddhism. And I always asked “Saved from what?” Enjoyed this convo and both perspectives. Curious how Christianity in the time of Jesus is different than it is now. Hopefully there’s a Part 2.
