Grace, impossible standards, and love that doesn't affirm behavior

• Do God's standards ever feel impossibly heavy to you?

After a host addressed as Dan is asked if he had wisdom to add, the hosts ask whether God's standards ever feel impossibly heavy, landing on grace as part of the story. A host addressed in the audio as Dan recounts his childhood stealing club and notes he never expected anyone to fly pirate flags for thieves. The hosts argue the break happens when identity becomes self-defined (the baby-calf and bake-the-cake examples), and that loving people means not affirming behavior — 'my wife loves me, but there's a lot of behavior of mine that she does not affirm.' A caller who quit pornography but still hunts movies for accidental nudity illustrates that everyone lives in this tension, and a comedy beat has a host admitting he forgets homosexuals exist until he walks a rainbow path at work.
