Karl and Crew

Tis the season for graduation, fa la la la la, la la la la. More and more graduates are taking a year off before heading to college. Is it right to take a gap year? We’ll share thoughts from callers and relive our old college days.

How did you know your spouse was “the one?” If someone asked you what would you say? Kathleen and Brian dissect marriage and dig into Kathleen’s full love story of redemption and growth. Join us as we take a trip down memory lane!

What do we look like to Christians outside our borders? We talked to a pastor from Lebanon named Mohammad Yamout. He had some pretty honest observations about the American church. In this episode, we play some clips of his perspective. Then we took time to talk it out. It’s about to get real up in here.

Evangelicals today are looking for new ways to identify themselves. Why? Because it seems that the word “Evangelical” has lost its meaning. In this episode, we’ll share how some of our listeners refer to themselves, and we’ll peel back the layers of our own labels.

It’s called the “Religious Liberty Accommodations Act.” Officially, it was Mississippi House Bill Number 1523. It’s designed to protect people of faith in a number of ways. Brian and Kathleen discussed the ground level issue for Christians in the service industry. But should we exercise that right to refuse service? Put on your waders, it’s about to get deep.

It used to be edgy. Counter-cultural. Undignified. Today, tattoos are increasingly trendy for average Americans. But a deep divide still exists among Christians as to whether or not tattoos are morally permissible. Does the Bible forbid them? What if they’re faith-based? Brian and Kathleen discuss the controversy and feature calls from listeners. Oh, and they also snuck in a compelling tattoo story from a theologian.

It doesn’t matter how much sleep we get or how many Netflix shows we relax to, it just always feels like a fight to stay energetic! Perhaps we aren’t resting correctly. What does that even mean, you ask? Brian and Kathleen asked the same question. Join us as we process the true meaning of “rest.”

Scales, weights, size, dimensions. These simple units of measurement make things in day-to-day life easier to understand. Thanks science! But what about spiritual measurements of success? Is spiritual measurement quantifiable? Brian and Kathleen take calls and explore further.

Do you feel the need? The need for speed? You might have been plagued with a lead foot, or perhaps you view it as a blessing. Have you ever thought about it as a sin? We took some time to slow down and chat about it!

Cookies are yummy, but did you know they’re controversial? It’s true! Brian and Kathleen talk about a recent call for Christians to boycott a particular type of cookie. What is it? Should we participate? You’ll have to listen to find out.​
