In this episode, Ken Shuman and a group of Faithwalkers reflect on the story of the beheading of John the Baptist and how Herod chose to do what was evil – in spite of not wanting to – “out of regard for” things that did not matter. Our handout for discussion was a sermon by Nadia Bolz-Weber entitled “On Beheadings and Birthday Parties,” attached below. This conversation was originally recorded in July of 2021.
