Welcome back T&J fam! This week we have a fun and thought provoking episode. Starting out, we try the experiment we mentioned last week regarding salted coffee. We put a pinch of sea salt in our basic amazon coffee pods to see if it enhances the flavor. It ya'll try this out, please let us know how it goes for you. Then, Josh talks about subway hot takes and what hot takes we each have about life. And last but not least, Josh talks about the Not Of This World concept spoken about in Christian circles and how it leads us to be isolated from the world, not a difference make in the world. Feel free to send us your thoughts on the subject to the email below. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! After months of hard work from Josh's wife, Sarah, we took a long week to explore one of Josh and Sarah's favorite place on earth - New York City. We break down the trip and some of our favorite memories and food experiences. If you are heading that way sometime soon, hit us up at the email below and we'll gladly share our secrets. Following a brief trip recap, we dive into some recent thoughts about the past and things that are gradually disappearing with time. We make our predictions on what is going to disappear next and also identify somethings from the past we wish were still here. Lastly, we highlight some cultural observations from our trip and how getting out of our comfort zone is hard, but also very healthy. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we wrap up the Dirty Brew Review with some pumpkin cold brew. We have enjoyed going our coffee reviews this month and encourage you to send us your favorite coffee! We'd be happy to review it on the show. Josh then opens up about his secret love of the Blue Jays and how he randomly picked this Canadian team to pull for in baseball. This leads to a discussion about gas stations and how we can feel at home in situations that may not be best. We discuss how both life situations and spiritual situations can feel right but not necessary be right - or healthy. Feel free to send us your thoughts at the email below. And as always . . . enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we have another special guest; Hatcher Geary. Hatcher is a local children's pastor and long time friend of Josh. Hatcher has courageously agreed to come on the show to present his case for an eternal conscious hell. As we get started, we briefly define the three traditional Christian views of hell before letting Hatcher lay out why he believes ECT is the most biblically accurate perspective. We wrestle with some of the core components of hell theology and how our different views are informed by scripture. Along the way we try to find common ground and allow the bible to speak the truth we are seeking. Ultimately, none of us converted to a different view, but we all gain a better understand of each other's views. Feel free to send us your thoughts or questions at the email addresses below. We are also posting video episodes to our YouTube account, and shorts to Facebook, TikTok, and Instagram. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! As promised, we have a special guest on this week’s episode! Former mega church pastor, Jeremy Jernigan, joins the pod for an open and honest discussion on the challenges of pastoring and church leadership culture. Jeremy transparently discusses his own experiences and resignation in 2020 and how this has sent him down a rabbit hole of personal growth, deconstruction, and reconstruction. We discuss what this has done for his faith and what he sees ministry looking like moving forward. Jeremy also has a tattoo sleeve, so we had to learn about that as well. Please connect with Jeremy through his website and social media (see below) and enjoy the show!

Welcome back T&J fam! As we promised, we have brought back the Dirty Brew Review for the month of October. This week we throw it back to the only coffee we can start fall with; Pumpkin Spice Latte. Feel free to send us coffee ideas as we plan to use some listener requested coffees the rest of this month. Today, we also learn the difference between Deja Vu and Deja Reve, so buckle your seat belts for that discussion. Lastly, we dive into a discussion on the difficulty American Christians seem to have coexisting with "others". We discuss whether we, as Christians, are called to coexist and debate how much our founding fathers may have put us on the path to power and not coexistence. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we get a lovely soapbox rant from Marty to start off the show. If you have listened for a while, you know Marty loves to hate on Christian radio during fundraiser week. Well here we go again. This discussion leads to a broader discussion on how spiritual manipulation and abuse happens in the broader Christian culture. We discuss people's fear of honest and what needs to change so that people quit being scarred of the truth. Enjoy!

Welcome back T&J fam! This week we start off with a fun debate about birds in your home. And trust, if that sounds weird, the actual discussion will leave you scratching your head. But somehow it turns into a fun talk about being pranked. Then, following a terrible transition, we dive into a discussion on theology and how our search for "right" theology can become an idol in our lives. Marty opens up about what he has been learning lately, and we discuss how God does not just want you to know about him, he wants you to know him. Enjoy!

Welcome back everyone to another episode of T&J! This week we dive in with a little fantasy football update . . . aka Marty's team sucks. Then Josh opens up about his simmering anger and some recent discussions he has had about counseling. Turns out, many people have a view of therapy that we do not completely agree with. We appreciate the honesty but do not agree with the conclusions. Therefore, we discuss how culture has impacted men, their view of counseling, and try to clarify what counseling is suppose to look like. Enjoy!
