| 0:00.0 | And the Hello everyone, that matter podcast appreciate everyone tuning in and we have a wonderful episode we have |
| 0:25.7 | Rosaria Butterfield with us. Hey Rosaria, how are you doing? Hey John, nice to see you. Good to see you. I know you've been on the podcast at least once before and you are of course a wife, mother, |
| 0:37.8 | author, a pastor's wife, you live in Durham, North Carolina, close to where I used to live and you are, you were a professor of English |
| 0:46.4 | in women studies at Syracuse University. |
| 0:48.6 | So you've written this book, Five Lies of our anti-Christian age, and I guess the first question I have for you on that is, |
| 0:59.8 | the question every author wants first is, why did you write the book right right |
| 1:04.0 | because I couldn't get anybody else to because that's not a good answer no I |
| 1:09.5 | wrote the book because in the last you know know, really our post-Abergafel world, but it really has been taking |
| 1:16.2 | up shape in the last, since 2019, you know, I'd say is when it really hit. |
| 1:22.0 | Lots of questions from moms and grandmas specifically |

| 1:45.8 | And so in meeting with women and talking with women and just sort of thinking about it |
| 1:51.0 | myself, I came up with three reasons and five lies. |
| 1:55.4 | Three reasons why, you know, if Christ is not divided, why are we? |
| 2:00.6 | Why, why, what, you know, it's a basic faith in recent question. |
| 2:04.1 | So I just sat to write a book for faithful Christian moms and grandmas. |
| 2:11.5 | So my audience is not, it is not an apologetics, it is not polemical, |
| 2:17.0 | although some people would definitely think it is because it has an edge. |
| 2:20.0 | It was just my best attempt at a faith in recent question of Christ is not divided why are we and what do we do so came up with three reasons and five lies so three reasons that produce these five lies and the challenges that these five lies, |
| 2:35.6 | there are three challenges. One is I used to believe all of these five lies. So I totally understand |
| 2:40.5 | how sneaky they are. And then to make it worse I even believed some of them as a Christian. So I totally understand how they sneak into the church. |
