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.

In this Florida edition of the podcast, Rog and Bruce talk about beach vacations, the deterrent value of punishment, ugly Bocce losses, heaven and hell, choice, consequences, meals with friends, and why Jesus had to die.

The pastords have fun talking about awards they've won, ventriloquism, judgmental Christians, the Electoral College, preaching contests, transactional living, grace, productivity, God's rewards and why small decisions matter.

Spurred by a reader's topic suggestion, the Pastords talk about anti-depressants, exploding trash cans, misconceptions about depression, diabetes, gratitude, NASA model rockets, encouragement, the rorschach ink blot, dopamine, and how to be a safe person for a friend battling depression. (NOTE: There is an early audio gap that clears up shortly thereafter. We will work to improve this for future podcasts.)

In this final episode of Season 2, Bruce and Roger talk garage renovations, Martin family rules, loopholes, immigration, traffic school, the Ten Commandments, Jesus' obsession with mercy, mass incarceration, the purpose of rules, and whether the Pastords will have a Season 3.

Bruce and Roger talk about the NFL, canned applause in empty stadiums, negative political ads, the illusion of power, selling your soul, the End Times, the pull to give up, and the significance of serving, along with a closing debate about the greatest power in the world.

Today's unscripted podcast winds its way around California fires, gourmet camping meals, trusting God halfway, transactional love, unhelpful customer service agents, offensive grace, the God who parties, walking on water and riding llamas.

In a conversation about the image of God, the pastords find a way to talk about aging, Fozzie Bear, creativity, choicity, empathy, morality, Don Henley,  demonizing people, Far Side comics, beauty, political party platforms and harmony vs melody, 

Eschewing the fluff for the controversial, Roger and Bruce wade into a conversation that touches on nationalism, what makes a country great, leisure suits, Jonah, why people wanted to kill Jesus, the American Revolution, their parent's 60th wedding anniversary and whether we should say "God Bless China."
