  • The State of our Society in 2025
    Feb 9 2025

    For today's episode I sat down with old military friends Tyler and DJ once more to cover the recent election and what the next four years may hold under President Trump. We spend a lot more time however, talking about the state of our society at this moment and how we got here. It's an organic conversation between people with differing viewpoints. However, we are not being rude, crass, or overruling one another constantly. We're conversing as adults. So if this is how you prefer your conversations to sound, give it a listen.

  • Flashback: Christian Ethics and The Spread of the Church (Rev. Dr. Jeremy Hall)
    Dec 15 2024

    For today's flashback episode, I continued my conversation with Rev. Dr. Hall, and it was interesting to say the least. We talked more about where the Church fits into today's complex world, Christian ethics and cultural issues, and how it all fits together.
    I want to reiterate, in no way am I attempting to influence or change one's way of thinking here, but episodes like this are what this podcast is all about, sharing different, challenging ideas, in good faith without rudeness or judgment.

  • Flashback: How Does The Bible Fit Into Our Modern World? (Rev. Dr. Jeremy Hall)
    Dec 8 2024

    For this flashback episode, the podcast is tackling one of the few remaining important, yet sensitive topics we'd yet to cover...religion. And in this episode we're talking particularly about Christianity and the Bible. We talked about where the Church fits into today's complex world, Christian ethics and cultural issues, and how it all fits together.
    I have to say, this interview became more of an organic conversation as we talked and Rev. Dr. Hall was far different than I expected him to be in such a great way. This is merely part one of our interview. It's just the tip of the iceberg.
