Libations & Lectionaries

Jimmy and Ted spend a pretty good chunk of time talking about this week's lectionary passage, John 21:1-19, but they also spend a decent amount of time talking about spoilers for Avengers: Endgame. The part with all the spoilers has been conveniently quarantined at the end of the episode so that you can avoid it so desired. As far as libations go, this episode was recorded the week before the Kentucky Derby, so tonight's drink is Mint Juleps made with Old Forester bourbon whisky.

Jimmy and Katie spend the evening trying not to be too terribly distracted by the first round of the NFL draft while discussing the story of the Resurrection and the story of Thomas the Twin, who has been unfairly cast as a model of what not to do with your faith. Libations are back this week - Jimmy goes to an old faithful, with Founder's Kentucky Breakfast Stout, and Katie brings in a beer from Asheville, with Hi-Wire's Lo-Pitch Juicy IPA.

Jimmy and Katie are fresh off of an evening with the director of the White House office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships during the Obama administration, and now... they have THOUGHTS and OPINIONS about civil religion in the Palm Sunday story. Also, they're drinking water, because they're old and tired.

Ted is back, but Katie had car trouble, so Caitie tagged in (confused yet?). We talk about Luke 13:31-35 and drink Irish Gin & Tonics (they are... green!).

Ted and Katie return to the podcast to join Jimmy in discussing Joel 2:1-2,12-17 and drinking Catawba Brewing Company's Farmer Ted Cream Ale.
