“Let’s Deconstruct a Deconversion Story: The Case of Rhett and Link”– The Gospel Coalition

The most recent—and arguably most influential—one has come from entertainers and YouTube sensations Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal of the Good Mythical Morning channel and Ear Biscuits podcast.”

I would venture to say that there is a greater Christian witness in the world today than there has ever been in history up until this time.
