Episode: It's In the Code, Ep. 8: It's a Relationship, Not a Religion
Description: Building from the previous episode, Dan explores what’s going on when people say that Christianity is “a religion, not a relationship,” when salvation is understood as requiring a “personal relationship” with Jesus, and so on.
