Backstage With The Simple Church The Simple Church

This week in honor of Father's Day we're reposting one of our most downloaded episodes ever, Justin and John's episode with their dad, Pops. Recorded in 2021, everyone loved hearing Pops stories and laughing together, which makes this all the more special since Pops passed away last year. Enjoy this episode and Happy Father's Day, we'll be back next week with a new episode. 
 
On this episode, we have a Father's Day special with Lead Pastor Justin Haigler & Executive Pastor John Haigler's Dad, Pops Haigler. They go back to the very beginning of the Haigler family and share stories and laugh about growing up and what the Haigler boys experienced as kids.  If you have feedback for the show, have a guest suggestion, or just want to talk to Scott, e-mail Scott@thesimplechurch.tv or follow us on Instagram @thesimplechurchpodcast .

Would You Rather Questions:
Would you rather have sunscreen that never runs out but smells like fried chicken, or sunscreen that smells like roses but you need to reapply every 30 minutes?
Would you rather have a permanent sunburn on your nose that squeaks like a dog toy when touched, or have your entire body covered in temporary tattoos of beach scenes that come to life and start singing when you're near water?
Would you rather only be able to swim in pools filled with Jell-O or beaches with water that turns into lemonade when you splash it?
Would you rather have a personal fan that follows you everywhere but speaks only in cheesy pickup lines, or sunglasses that make everyone you look at appear as cartoon characters?
Would you rather only be able to wear swim fins everywhere you go or have your hair turn into a different color of the rainbow every time you step outside in the sun?
Would you rather have a magical cooler that always has your favorite cold drink but plays loud mariachi music every time you open it, or a beach umbrella that provides shade but randomly transforms into a giant parasol hat?
Would you rather have a talking seashell that gives questionable fashion advice every time you hold it to your ear, or a beach towel that refuses to lay flat and keeps rolling itself up?
Would you rather have the ability to summon an endless supply of ice cream, but it's always the flavor you like the least, or have a personal cloud that follows you around and rains ice cream toppings?
Would you rather have flip-flops that make farting noises with every step or a swimsuit that changes color based on your mood, but sometimes gets it wrong and turns neon green when you're feeling calm?
Would you rather have a magical beach chair that massages your back but occasionally pinches your toes, or a pair of sunglasses that allow you to see underwater but give you a fish's voice when you speak while wearing them?
