Tim and Joel get together to record the last Shock Absorber of 2023. Christmas is the inspiration, and so they discuss what a successful Christmas Eve children's service looks like and Soul Revival's recent carols event. This leads to a wider discussion on what appeals to outsiders and why making church as attractional as possible may not be the ideal approach. The finish up with a quick chat about their own family's Christmas traditions.
