Who is the tree of life? Jesus walks among the churches. A trip through the temple. To the person that overcomes…
[00:00:15] Jason: Welcome to the Weekly Deep Dive Podcast on the Add on Education Network, the podcast where we take a look at the weekly come follow me discussion and try to add a little insight and unique perspective. I am your host, Jason Lloyd, here in this studio with our friend and this show’s producer, Nate Pyfer.
[00:00:31] Nate: Hello, My. Hello.
[00:00:32] Jason: Hello, Nate.
[00:00:34] Nate: Hello.
[00:00:35] Jason: How are you?
[00:00:36] Nate: This we’ve only got a few episodes left, man. For the year.
[00:00:40] Jason: For the year. We’re about closing it out. And this is the book of Revelation. I think it’s always been looming back there.
I don’t know. I’m excited to get here.
[00:00:50] Nate: Revelation, you love this one.
[00:00:52] Jason: I do.
[00:00:52] Nate: You’ve been waiting for this one.
[00:00:54] Jason: I’m excited.
[00:00:56] Nate: I was very much waiting to get into the Gospels when we were in the Old Testament.
[00:01:01] Jason: That’s because your heart’s in the right place.
[00:01:03] Nate: Oh, my look, you want the end.
[00:01:05] Jason: Of the I don’t.
[00:01:08] Nate: I do.
Please, Jesus, come back. We’re ready. Jesus, take the wheel.
Jesus, take the wheel.
[00:01:19] Jason: Also.
[00:01:19] Nate: Yeah.
[00:01:20] Jason: Just think.
I mean, it is this time of the year. Bumpity, bump, bump, bumpity, bump. We have a bump to put in there for an upcoming episode. Not episode, podcast. Whole series.
[00:01:35] Nate: Yes.
We will play that bump at the end of the podcast to remind you, but it’s going to be a good one. Inevitable. Art coming january 2024.
[00:01:48] Jason: Yes. I’m excited for it.
[00:01:51] Nate: Me, too, man. Dude, I had this discussion the other day, and I have a question. Let me throw this out to you.
[00:01:56] Jason: Oh, dear.
[00:01:57] Nate: I know this is not where you wanted to start, but I thought about this the other day, the word reverence or revere.
[00:02:04] Jason: Okay.
[00:02:06] Nate: I think that sometimes we use it maybe inappropriately, because maybe we don’t understand, but to revere something, it has to be different than just, like, having a high respect for something, right?
[00:02:21] Jason: It’s like worshipping.
[00:02:22] Nate: That’s what I mean. Right. So are you in the camp of it’s kind of like God? And that’s the end of the list of things that we revere?
Because, again, I have a reverence for I would say very few things in my life, but as I was thinking about because the other day, I was just like, I feel like I have a reverence for, obviously, God. I don’t know if I would use reverence when it comes to my family, you know what I mean?
I don’t think I would use that word reverence in that context. But it is interesting because I would use the word reverence when it comes to art or creation, because that, to me, is just so synonymous with God. Right. But I was like, I might need to ask Jason about this. I might need to check myself on this one.
[00:03:15] Jason: No, I would absolutely use it for that. In fact, I would use it outside of art, even in a respect for life, but also a reverence for things that could take life away.
[00:03:28] Nate: Oh, interesting.
[00:03:29] Jason: Right? Because it kind of goes into the same idea terrible and terrific, yet it’s the same thing. It inspires terror. Awesome and awful both inspire awe. Right? And it’s this idea of fearing God. And it’s not fearing, but it is, in a sense of this reverence or this revering of something that’s more powerful than you or that could end your life. And in a sense that maybe I have reverence for...
