Pod Have Mercy

Episode 212: ARE YOU SERIOUS?!


Listen Later

In this episode of Pod Have Mercy, we unpack a powerful reflection inspired by Russell Moore’s article on “gravity” - the lost virtue of being sober-minded and serious in a culture obsessed with noise, reaction, and silliness.

We explore what it means to lead with gravity - a blend of clarity, maturity, and responsibility that holds steady when the world demands instant opinions and outrage. From George Washington to TikTok culture, from pastoral leadership to personal growth, they ask: how do we reclaim the weightiness of character in an age of distraction?

Join the conversation as they reflect on Scripture, personal stories, and what it means to be grown-ups in the room again.
