This week, Joel and Eric talk about loyalty, and discuss some texts and modern day examples that are theologically problematic, but important nonetheless.
Eric brings up the 5th commandment (“Honor your father and mother” as well as the story of Pinchas (Numbers 25:10).
Joel shares some powerful parables of Jesus regarding familial loyalty, and also brings up the connections between loyalty, obedience, and love.
