In this episode, Jamie & Eric kick things off with Shooting the Skybalon, talking holiday plans, Mariah Carey’s annual resurrection, and the mystery of Jehovah Witness "Halls". In Shady Theology, they take a closer look at manger scenes and why they’re almost never biblically accurate. Then it’s game time with Life’s a Preach: Christmas Edition, where they try to build a sermon out of three completely random items. In Pester the Pastor, they offer some much-needed holiday financial wisdom on staying smart when spending ramps up. Finally, they debut O Baptist Church with Lots of Ham, a Christmas carol spoof with a very Baptist twist.

It’s festive, ridiculous, and just theological enough—welcome to Not the Sermon.
