In this bonus episode, Zack tackles the "letter" and "spirit" in 2 Cor 3:5-6 and the common practice of ascribing others with the title "legalist" or "Pharisee." This topic combats the views of "progressive Christianity" and asserts that Christians should base truth upon the revealed word of God rather than personal experience.

In this episode, Logan and Zack tackle the enneagram; a tool used to analyze and describe motivation for human behavior.
