In a packed episode, the team reacts to headlines ranging from NBA betting scandals to AI superintelligence and global persecution of Christians—including a sobering look at the church in Nigeria. Pastor Dave and Pastor Bob also discuss Joe Rogan’s recent comments about attending church, sparking a deeper conversation about why the local church still matters in today’s culture. Add in a World Series rooting interest (for Don Mattingley!), a Louvre heist update, and a spirited theology sprint on cults, and you’ve got a full slate of news, worldview, and witty banter.
But the heart of this episode centers on a powerful interview with Andrew Strain, a friend of the church and modern-day Hezekiah. Andrew shares his remarkable story of liver failure, a life-saving transplant, and how God showed up—clearly and providentially—through every twist and turn. His testimony is raw, moving, and filled with hope for anyone facing fear, illness, or the unknown. Whether you’re here for theology, story, or a few laughs about blacklight chalk and grapes in church, this episode has something for everyone.
