Podcast 40 – Marriage; Why Robertson gets it wrong
Pat Robertson is just a man. People sometimes get things completely wrong. Pat Robertson is completely wrong in the comments he recently about marriage.
Even ABC grabbed his words and deals with the issue even better than he did.
We wanted to speak of marriage because it is much more than hormones, it is about commitment and the action of love. Love is far more than a feeling, it is a choice to do and to be. Join us as we work through these surprising comments from Pat Robertson.
Podcast 39 – To Ojo Taylor, with love.
Over the course of the last two podcasts we have talked about the music that inspired us as young believers. Bands such as Undercover, the Seventy Sevens, Petra, Andy McCarroll & Moral Support, One Bad Pig and Altar Boys were pivotal in the development of our faith and our world view. But as all things in life, change is inevitable. Times change, people change, circumstances change… only God stays the same.
We discuss the revelation that one of our heroes, Ojo Taylor, founding member of our favorite band Undercover, has renounced his faith. Honestly, I halfway wish this was a video podcast so you could have seen what I saw as we recorded and discussed. The hurt and disappointment on Rich’s face was apparent, but even more so his sincere love for Ojo. Ojo Taylor and Undercover were like spiritual big brothers to both Rich and I, an anchor through our turbulent Junior High School years. Now we are faced with the horrible realization that, for Ojo at least, that anchor didn’t hold. We don’t despair completely, for no one is truly beyond the reach of our loving Savior.
