From 12/16/18 Worship Service
Join Reverend Joe Cherry as we explore the mystery of pets. Scientifically, pets don't make sense. They cost us money, they don't really do anything and that's not likely to change. Scientifically, pets make a lot of sense because they offer us chances to lower our blood pressure, make many social interactions easier and help prevent loneliness. So, which is it? Maybe it's just that pets and science don't mix?
