Good Christian People Jeff Higgins

- Religion & Spirituality
Tim and Jeff are life-long friends and pastors desperately trying to reclaim the reputation of the Church by taking an honest look at their flaws - corporate and individual - and trying to figure out how to look more like Jesus. With a half-serious approach to serious issues plaguing the Church, they'll address critical, hot-button topics, confess their sins, and probably lose some friends in the process. What fun!

The SBC Round-up and the Pirates Who Didn't Do Anything
For our final episode before the Summer break, we have a real barnburner for you today - if you like business meetings.
Denominational Politics sound boring. That’s because they are. Usually. But every once in awhile, something big happens. Well, something big happened. So, let’s talk about it.

And Now For Something Lighter: What Does It Mean To Be Pro-Life?
“Pro-Life”. You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. We try to get to the bottom of what it means to truly be “whole life Pro-Life” with a little help from our friends, Fred and Brianna Jarrett.

Tension Culture: Violence, Pacifism and the Christian, pt. 1
In this corner, we have Table-Flipping Jesus. And in this corner, we have the Blessed Peacemakers. But are they really opponents? Are they actually in different corners of the ring? Should we practice non-violence or should we methodically craft a whip and get to work being holy Rambos? Doormats or Dominators?
