In this episode of The Dents in My Armor, Jenny and Lee center their conversation on the sacrament—not as a routine or checklist, but as a living, weekly invitation to choose Christ again.

They reflect on how the sacrament invites presence rather than performance, covenant rather than perfection, and returning rather than restarting.

This episode explores how the sacrament meets us in our real lives—our questions, weariness, growth, and desire to come back to Christ honestly, not impressively.

As part of the season-long conversation about choosing Christ, this episode reframes the sacrament as a sacred pause: a place to remember, reorient, and receive grace—again and again.
