RH LIVE! Episode 28: Hell and Evangelism, and the Case of Rhett and Link

In this episode of Rethinking Hell Live, Chris Date takes the claim sometimes made by defenders of the doctrine of eternal torment, that annihilation isn’t fearful enough to spur evangelized unbelievers to repentance, and tests that claim in light of the deconversion of well known YouTubers Rhett and Link, of Good Mythical Morning.
