Description

Season 3, Episode 2 - This season, Eric and Joel bring one (fairly) current topic each, and wonder together what our response to these issues might be from our perspectives of faith.

Eric's issue - After the hostage situation at a Texas synagogue, are we clearly supportive of one another across faiths? How (and when) do we say "we are with you" especially in a stressed, COVID, tragedy-riddled world?

Joel's issue - Patriot Churches, how can any Christian put partisan political nationalistic priorities above God's love and hope for all people of every nation, and still call themselves a church of Jesus?
