This month, Dave and I begin working our way through the book titled Defending Boyhood by Tony Esolen. We are challenging our listeners to join us for a slow walk through a very insightful and much needed book. 

This month Dave and I dive into questions about Christmas:

Should Christians celebrate Christmas?
If so, how and why should we celebrate it?
How should parents navigate questions about Santa Claus?
Should we tell our kids about Santa Claus or not?

This Month:

What happens in our home is the single most important factor for spreading the gospel and being salt and light in our culture. Having and discipling our children, protecting our marriages, and deliberately passing the covenant from one generation to the next, is the key to changing our family tree in a Christian direction. 

And, BJ goes on a bit of a screed about pumpkin spice.

This Month:

An unpresented number of people are moving in the aftermath of the covid pandemic. Even for those not relocating, many have been disappointed with the response by their local church. So, this month, Dave and I lay out some principles for what to look for in finding a new church. What are the priorities? How should someone in this situation proceed with this decision?

This Month:

Dave has recently relocated to Miami with the Air Force, which led us to consider what the Bible say about this topic. What are some factors Christians need to consider about moving? What does the Bible say about place? Why is it important to be rooted?
