Inglorious Pastords

In this episode, the Pastords ramble about NFL quarterbacks and coaches, regrets, ignoring Google Maps, what Bruce thought about on a hospital bed, chuckle tracks, why we procrastinate, getting lost, and the gift of repentance.

In their first ever "virtual" podcast, the Pastords talk about the Capitol attack, Bruce's Covid recovery, repentance, the blame game, bourbon as medicine, strength in rest, obsession with American greatness, and Bruce's unfortunate prayer for humility.

In this final episode of Season 3, Bruce and Roger reflect on 2020, the church in 2021, denominations, the danger of comfortable, meals with white nationalists, church buildings, Matthew vss Judas, with vss for, church surveys  and how people come to believe that God loves them.

On Bruce's 37th Wedding Anniversary, the Pastords have a conversation about sainthood, the Bee Gees, empathy, curing sinus infections, listening to people you've hurt, defusing anger, learning to take advice, installing foglights, believing the best about people, and 6 words that might save your marriage.

In a short 45 minutes, the Pastords manage to talk about their unique Covid masks, evolution, seasons in Antarctica, demoting God, pastoral alliteration syndrome, atheists, godless Christians, Romans 1, and the Babylon Bee.

The Pastords reflect on a strange Thanksgiving Day, tithing, quarterback-less football teams, Jesus and good news for the poor, the walls of Jericho, a Covid vaccine, the social gospel, polygamy, Nicodemus, Bible passages about giving, worship that God hates, and a church that gave away 50% of its contributions.

Bruce and Roger manage, in one sitting, to talk about real ministry, the Master's Golf Tournament, making America great, the sons of thunder, selling used cars, caring about Syria, an end-time prophecy, white lies, landmines, and the lie of the lie.

The Pastords have a delightful conversation about know-it-alls, looking stupid, a talking ass, anger triggers, learning from our enemies, wrong turns, snarky comments, chuckle tracks, listening like Jesus, and what keeps us ignorant.

The post-election pastords (neither of whom ran for an office) talk about political ad fatigue, hurricanes, diminishing Christian discernment, the power of listening, abortion, the power of love, the dramatic drop in U.S. refugee resettlement, empathy, conspiracy theories, and one key way to measure spiritual growth.

In this Presidential election issue, the pastords talk about the four seasons, gun rights, the cross of Jesus, religious rights, voting purple, baptizing and demonizing people, what's riding on this election, fear tactics, Jesus' prayer for unity, the power of love, and what will happen after the election.
