We strive to be a rational voice in a blustering world of strong opinions. We hope to help you see the other side. Our goal is to talk about issues that the church isn't talking about or isn't talking about well. Carol and Dave are both Christians and life long learners and endlessly curious. We believe all truth is God's truth.

    An open letter on grief

    On this episode Dave and Carol interview their friend Tina Mallery. One of the reasons we started this podcast 2 and a half years ago was so that we could talk about things that the church wasn't talking about well or wasn't talking about at all. Grief is one of those topics. Tina has had to deal with more than her fair share of grief in her life. We talk to her about what how she met her husband and what happened when she lost him over 3 years ago.

We laugh a lot during this episode and get some great insight of what it means to live life without a sense that most of us take for granted.

  6. To kneel or not to kneel

    10/04/2017

    To kneel or not to kneel

    This is one of the hottest issues in our country right now- Should players kneel during the national anthem? What should we make of this controversy? Are these spoiled millionaires trying to draw attention to themselves or is this a peaceful protest trying to highlight a valid issue? Or something in between? Chad and I discuss this with a couple of call in guests- one is a former Marine and the other has years of coaching experience. Join the discussion!

    An open letter with Pastor Craig Apel

    Craig Apel has been a pastor for over 40 years. He and I met while we were both in the play "The Great Divorce". He played George MacDonald and I played C.S. Lewis. We have maintained a friendship ever since. On this episode we discuss how patriotism and how that interacts with the Christian faith. Should we say the pledge of allegiance? Should we have 4th of July services at church?
