  • Summary

  • The Becket Cook Show was created by Becket Cook to discuss relevant topics and to crush the lies of culture with truth. Becket Cook was born and raised in Dallas, Texas. After graduating from college, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue his dream of writing and acting, finding success in both. He eventually became a production designer working on fashion shoots for brands such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Gap, L'Oréal Paris, and Nike. Becket lived as a gay man until 2009, when he reluctantly agreed to attend a church service at which he was transformed by the gospel and gave his life to Christ. He also knew that homosexuality was a sin and that he could no longer live that life. Becket spends much of his time in ministry speaking at churches, universities, and conferences helping people understand this issue biblically, theologically, culturally, and personally. Becket graduated from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University in 2017 with a Master of Arts in Theology.

  • Why I'm Protestant: Dr. Gavin Ortlund Interview

    Why I'm Protestant: Dr. Gavin Ortlund Interview
    Oct 3 2024

    In today’s episode, I chat with Dr. Gavin Ortlund about his new book, “What It Means To Be Protestant: The Case For an Always-Reforming Church.”

    These days many evangelicals are exploring the more sacramental, liturgical, and historically-conscious church traditions, including Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. This hunger for historical rootedness is a welcome phenomenon--but unfortunately, many assume that this need can only be met outside of Protestant contexts.

    In What it Means to Be Protestant, Gavin Ortlund draws from both his scholarly work in church history and his personal experience in ecumenical engagement to offer a powerful defense of the Protestant tradition. Retrieving classical Protestant texts and arguments, he exposes how many of the contemporary objections leveled against Protestants are rooted in caricature. Ultimately, he shows that historic Protestantism offers the best pathway to catholicity and historical rootedness for Christians today.

  • How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion: Allie Beth Stuckey Interview

    How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion: Allie Beth Stuckey Interview
    Sep 19 2024

    Support The Becket Cook Show on Patreon!

    In today’s episode, Becket chats with Allie Beth Stuckey about her new book, “Toxic Empathy: How Progressives Exploit Christian Compassion.”

    We are told that empathy is the highest virtue—the key to being a good person. Is that true? Or has “empathy,” like so many other words of our day— “tolerance,” “justice,” “acceptance”—been hijacked by bad actors who exploit compassion for their own political ends?

    In Toxic Empathy, Allie Beth Stuckey argues that empathy has become a tool of manipulation by left-wing activists who bully people into believing that they must adopt progressive positions to be loving. She explores the five most heated issues through which toxic empathy is deployed: abortion, gender, sexuality, immigration, and social justice. Progressives use catchy mantras to present their perspective as empathetic, like “abortion is healthcare,” “love is love,” or “no human being is illegal,” but in each case, they ignore the other side of the moral equation. For example, abortion is presented as compassionate for the woman, but what about the human life the procedure kills?

I love listening to the Beckett Cook show

Always elevates my mood to hear everyone and their testimonies, and the questions Beckett asks and overall over very well put together. I enjoy hearing about the different ways. People have come to Christ because it’s always motivational and reminds me that I am on the right track to hear about everybody’s story.

Repentance 

I’m delighted with how you and a few of your friends who had a past but gave their lives honestly back to Christ. The three of you have better ways of helping others share their lives with Christ. God intends us to do this when we become born again because doing what is righteous and just is more pleasing to the Lord and sacrifice.
