This week on Behind the Pulpit, Pastor Bob leads a post-Thanksgiving episode with Tim and Noah, comparing holiday meals, sharing stories from family gatherings, and laughing through a friendly “turkey truce” with one of our most dedicated listeners. The team also gives a spoiler-free reaction to Stranger Things Volume 1 before moving into major headlines—from AI-driven shopping scams to the Supreme Court case involving First Choice Women’s Resource Center. Add in updates on the City Relief Packing Party, Christmas Eve services, and another round of Book War (with rising concerns about ballot stuffing), and it’s a lively start to December.
The conversation then shifts to a rich recap of Pastor Bob’s sermon on Isaiah 52–53, exploring why peace is so elusive, how the Servant willingly suffers on our behalf, and what the “great exchange” truly means for followers of Christ. With questions about surrender, trust, and the kind of beauty Scripture calls us to value, the team unpacks one of Isaiah’s most moving passages and reflects on how it speaks into the unrest many believers feel today.
To close out the episode, the Theology Sprint returns with a heavy but important listener question—one that pushes the hosts to wrestle honestly with the nature of evil and the forces at work in the world. It’s a brief but sobering sprint that invites listeners to think deeply, and a fitting way to wrap up another meaningful week on Behind the Pulpit.
