With Palm Sunday approaching, a question comes in of whether we're celebrating the day completely wrong. Why is it a joyous celebration if we're remembering the crowds that turned on Jesus only 5 days later?

Part two of our conversation, and it turns out there's almost nothing that Jim can't talk about for hours on end, and it's a fascinating ride. We start with "what's going to be happening at the church?" and end up at "is there a true limit on the universe?" in very short order.

Ken starts the sermon with a poll on patience, and waiting on God, before talking about the story of the Israelites failing to wait on God so badly that they made a false God in the meantime.

A member comes from a faith tradition that doesn't allow for female clergy, so they're asking whether there should be pastors who are women or not. Jordan and Amanda talk about female preaching and leadership in the Bible, their journeys to get to where they are now, and some of the road bumps they've run into.
Oh, and if you're looking for the Instagram picture we're talking about, it's here.

Anthony tries out a new word: “imputed,” in order to talk about imputed righteousness versus imparted righteousness. What does that mean? Anthony has some examples, but he needs a jacket, some duct tape, and to drag Spencer onto the stage to do it.
This got fun enough that Anthony almost had to take Spencer’s mic privileges away. There’s a whole treasure hunt happening on the stage! This was a good time.
