Did you know that the Scriptures depict the God as having a long nose? that it's part of the holy name of God revealed to Moses on Sinai? So what in the world does it mean for God to have a long nose? In today's podcast conversation, JD and Bryan discuss God's longsuffering, patience, and slowness to anger. God, who is slow to anger, is enduring in covenant faithfulness toward His people; as the people God, how can we mirror this character of slowness to anger in disciplining our emotions, thoughts, words, and actions? Listen to today's episode to learn how slowness to anger - and longness of nose - brings us closer to Jesus.

In this launch of Season 5 of the Devotional Doctors podcast, Bryan and JD discuss the idea of wearing masks - though not the paper and fabric masks of the past year. Outside the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, all people tend to put on masking behaviors, making a presentation how we wish to be perceived. The masks of hypocrisy are connected to our self-perception, our defined identity, and motivations of fitting in. But when we are able to find our most authentic identity in Jesus Christ, we are able to be vulnerably unmasked, beholding the face of God. So listen in to find how we can all benefit by taking off our hypocritical masks!

Many of us tend toward far too much or too little work; we find identity and value in busyness and doing. This has been truer than ever during the COVID-19 crisis. But these attitudes toward work manifest themselves in all kinds of illnesses, injuries, and unhealthiness. How might the Scriptures help us to find balance with healthy attitudes toward work and labor, as well as Sabbath rest?
This episode also closes season 4 of the Devotional Doctors podcast. We will be taking a temporary rest, and will return to posting regular episodes again in a few weeks!

JD interviews Beth Fleenor, an occupational therapist and one of JD's coworkers. Beth is an occupational therapist who works with lots of hand trauma, and she lends a special insight into the Biblical language of hands. Hands do, and work, and are pivotal to so many tasks. So how can Christians understand our work as a "hands-on" ministry? How can we look for God's hand at work in the world today? And how can our acts of service, or even acts of rest, be a blessing and reflection of God in the lives of those around us?

In this episode of the Devotional Doctors podcast, we are joined by three members of the a cappella group Narrow Way: Jerry Tesch (lead), Thayne Washburn (alto), and Brandon Trout (bass). They use their musical experiences to teach us about working together in God's church. We consider how selfishness, distance, and "solo" attitudes become barriers to harmony. And they show how the "sheet music" of the Bible helps to unify Christians all on the same page.

Our theme music for this episode is "Alleluia, Lord" recorded by Narrow Way, and available on their website www.narrowwaymusic.com.

Digital communication is here to stay; it’s foolhardy to think that it would be done away with. So how should Christians use online media to participate in the kingdom of Christ?
On today’s episode of the Devotional Doctors podcast, Dr Kenny Embry joins us to talk about digital discipleship, one of the focuses of his podcast, Balancing the Christian Life. We discuss some of great blessings that digital communication offers to its users, but also some of the problems when the users’ attention becomes the product. Kenny shares with us the importance of healthy context and storytelling in our ongoing communication. We also consider how Christians can respond with hope, rather than fear, toward the digital world.
