Cross Checking episodes

  • Christian Masculinity
    Turns out both Ben and Josh are big fans of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson.  This was discovered as we discussed what it means to be a man, especially what it means to be a Christian man.
    And if you're not a man, this podcast is still worth your time - at least as much as any of our podcasts are worth your time.
    38 min
  • Respect My Authority
    Today we take on a perfectly safe, not risky at all topic that we're confident no one could ever get upset about.
    How should Christians interact with governmental authority?
     
    . . . well, we had fun with it anyway.
    45 min
  • Power Structure of the LCMS
    If you've ever wondered about the larger church we're a part of, this is the episode for you.  Josh and Ben talk how it works, why it matters, and how you can get involved.
    56 min
  • Ethical Chains of Events
    How far along the chain are you responsible for? Are you guilty because you bought a shirt sown with needles made with metal that was used in a murder 1000 years ago? Ben and Josh discuss.
    Also, Josh expresses a desire for a secret church currency . . . for some reason.
    42 min
  • What is a pastor anyway?
    Ben and Josh talk a little bit about what it means, and what it doesn't mean, to be a called and ordained servant of the Word.
    It feels a little weird talking about pastors when you are one, but we managed to power through it!
    44 min
  • Virtue Signaling
    The guys share their frustration with inconsistency between speech and action. More Josh than Ben though, Ben's one cool cucumber.
    35 min
  • The Theology of the Gym
    What does our faith say about getting swole?  What does it mean to get swole?  How much can Josh bench press?  We answer some of these questions in this installment of Manbuns and Jesus!
