Adrianna and Kenzie sit down and talk and discuss what's been going on with them and what's happening in the world. The gals then talk about the film Parable and the book The Shack which are beloved but also marred with controversy for their depictions of Christ. This leads to a discussion about how art can be used to help express complicated feelings and make spiritual discoveries.

Have you ever thought about how Christianity went from a religion of the oppressed to a dominating force in just a short time period? Adrianna and Mackenzie discuss how intensely dramatic first 300 years of Christianity and what early controversies shaped  Christianity identity.  The gals also talk about the Taylor Swift Ticket Master fiasco, Thanksgiving plans, and podcast recommendations.
