We do not claim to be a podcast with all the answers but to be open to having difficult conversations and explore the nuances of Truth and grow in our opinions. We discuss what does it look like to be fed by the Holy Spirit, how do we interact in holiness with the world, and the question of dehumanization in our culture. Please share or contact us,  we would love to hear from you!

We discuss leadership in the church from married priests to expected narcissism in leadership, taking ownership of the gospel, and the importance of discernment with the Holy Spirit and how that looks in our lives.

What does the phrase "meet them where they are at" actually mean? What dangers await us as we try to preserve our own cultures or try to control how the Gospel looks in others? We discuss these issues and more in this episode where we dive deep into using a few good examples of how we should not build a wall to prevent sinners from joining the Church while not just ignoring sin at the sacrifice of being inclusive. Join us on our adventure through this part of the Joy of the Gospel!

What is the difference between 'Joy' and 'Happiness'? How does our perception of what is fair change our spiritual life? These questions and more are discussed by Steven Anderson and Arthur Richardson as they dive into the first part of the Joy of the Gospel by Pope Francis. It has been their experience that when people talk about Pope Francis, they usually fixate on what they heard someone comment on what he said on the internet or the news. They would like to take you past the political biases and to the heart of what Pope Francis wants to say to the children of God in the catholic church as he has stepped into the role of 'Papa' for Christians everywhere. Yes, all Christians, since the joy of the Gospel cannot be owned by one denomination, but the the love of Christ urges us all on, to a point that we can say 'woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel.'

We are back!!!! Introducing our new Cohost, Steven Anderson! We will be starting a new season and circling back to the season with the focus on the Mass at a later date. 
In this episode, we focus on Mark 8:15 and discuss the Leaven of Herod, the Leaven of the Pharisees, and the Leaven of Jesus Christ - the Bread of Life. We discuss the rising trend of tribalism in our modern culture, how to position ourselves as Christians when we deal with other people who have different ideologies than us, and the challenge that we believe Jesus is presenting to our modern Church of Christians in how we respond to His love for us individually and giving others the extension of love that we experience who are different from us.
