Emmy and Natalia talk about what Christians are mad about now (spoiler: it's Halloween).

What's the history, why is it not about the devil at all? And how does this kind of moral panic happen anyway?

Emmy and Natalia continue their journey through the sacraments with the Rite of Confirmation. Is it a sacrament or a ritual? Why do we do it? Do we have to do it? Are we more or less holy depending on our confirmation status? So many good questions to dig into.

Emmy and Natalia answer a listener question about what it means that we're all loved the way we are and how our lives are supposed to be for a "purpose." What purpose? Is that really true? Or is it just a holdover from some toxic early 2000s theology?

Emmy and Natalia keep the sacramental conversation going with confession - what is it and do we need and why do we do it and does it even matter if it's not officially a sacrament for everyone?

Emmy and Natalia do a little more sacramental conversation and then move into a current topic of political anointing. Does God anoint candidates? How do we talk to people who believe certain people are anointed for a particular political position and others are not?

Emmy and Natalia continue the conversation from open tables and communion last week into talking about baptism this week. What's it for? Do we need it? What's the right way? We don't have all the answers, but we do have some opinions!
