After the popularity of our Biblical Cosmology series in the fall last year, Pootie finally plays catch up listening to the Haunted Cosmos and the Rebels nerd out on the unhinged.

There is an immense value in Christians understanding what the Bible has to say about the unseen realm, but pastorally P Nate wanted to issue a warning that this is an important secondary issue in scripture that can sometimes become dangerous if we make a secondary storyline THE storyline.

Hey, Neighbor, we're recording on Superbowl Sunday...  not to be confused with Tuesdays with Taylor...

(By the way, are you the Master of your own Sea?)

Then: Not only do Christians like to identify as "Sinners," but we like to sanitize the behavior of the Unbelievers. We want to give them the benefit of the doubt--even though they are Lost.

Later: We tried to raise Luke's bloodpressure with the story of a grumpy patient complaining about her stay at the hospital.  But he is pretty unflappable.   

Do you know what the medical community does with particularly uncooperative patients?

Finally: Let's talk about the idol of People Pleasing.  What IS the difference between having a "servant's heart" and being a people-pleaser?

The topic of discussion for this episode can be summed up by the iconic quote from the movie The Princess Bride, “Mawwige is what bwings us together today.” On this Valentine’s Day special, host Joseph Backholm is joined by Jamie Dunlop, a local pastor at Capitol Hill Baptist Church. Jaime frequently guides newly engaged couples through pre-marital counseling and has himself been married for 23 years. He addresses the godly design of marriage and the intentional purpose of its creation: to bring God glory. He also dives into the reasons that many people pursue marriage and how to discern if you are pursuing self or pursuing the Lord when seeking out relationships.

Today the Pugs are joined by the Executive Editor of American Reformer, Timon Cline. Timon is a lawyer, and a writer, and a deep thinker about the political implications of the Christian faith. Political theology might be a new term for you, and if you had a public school education--and even a certain form of Christian education--the term might even seem sinister to you. But hopefully by the time the conversation is done you'll see that Christianity is public truth and that necessarily means it has political applications.
