It's Holy Week, and that's kind of a big deal for Christians.
But have you ever thought what happened to Jesus in between His death and resurrection? Where was He?

What's one boat that you can't sink?... A Friendship.
Frodo had Sam, Maverick had Goose, Han had Chewy... Friends are kinda influential in the direction our life takes. But what does the bible have to say about friendship and all the complexities that come with it?
Today's question comes in from a listener:
"How do you deal with friend difficulties? How do you stay intentional with godly friends in your life? How do you leave bad friendships?"
But before we respond to these questions, we have a laugh with our segment of the day: "Unfortunate Church Names"

So picture this... you're a runaway, minding your own business (which is watching sheep) in the middle of a desert, and a burning bush calls out to you.
Sounds like an episode of The Twilight Zone, right?
Your favorite podcast trio responds to another puzzling question from a listener about the name of God in Exodus 3!
Segment of the day: "Songs To Get The Lightning Going"

It happens daily, even hourly. Sin has a way of convincing us that it's "home" is in our daily life. But as a follower of Jesus, what does this mean for the sacrifice of Christ? Was that all in vain?
We're back! Your favorite podcast (at least we hope to be) trio makes a comeback to this puzzling question from a listener on Hebrews 10:26.
BEFORE that question, the gang shares a segment called:
"Rose & Thorns"

We all have regrets in our life. Whether it be hitting the Taco Bell drive-thru late at night on your way home, or not sharing the gospel with a stranger you just had a great conversation with.
Regrets are something we commonly experience in life. But does God regret?
Your favorite podcast (at least we hope to be) trio is back once again with special guest Brenden McPeek to discuss an intriguing question from a listener:
- "How do you reconcile Genesis 6:6 where it says, “and the LORD regretted that He had made man in the earth, and it grieved Him to His heart”, to the sovereign plan of giving His son for us?"
BEFORE we dive deep into that discussion the group has a laugh in a segment called:
"The McWhat?!"

There's a lot of important decisions to make in life: Does the toliet paper unwind closer to wall or further from it? Should I go back to that bowl-cut I had in elementary school? How to fight a bear... and win?
If you're like us, you've encountered some big decisions in life and felt like you didn't fully have the wisdom you needed to make the right choice. That's where you don't know if you should trust your gut, God, or your friends. Well fear not, your favorite podcast trio is back to discuss an insightful question from a listener like you:
- "How important do you think it is to get counsel from others? When making big decisions, should we just seek the Lord for direction or include seeking wisdom from others?"
BUT as always the group gets really deep into conversations over a segment called:
"Tall Tales From The West...?"

Do the current world events have you saying, "What's the point"? Are you currently curled up with some Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, eating your sorrows away as you watch the news? Or maybe you're stoked that your underground bunker project seems like it's going to pay off real soon?
No doubt, the thought of how it all ends, or our place in it all, has crossed our minds lately. The LR trio is joined by their amazingly wise guest Quincey McCook for another great episode! Today's question comes from a listener who asks:
- "How can we maintain a sense of excitement for our futures when the world is crumbling so fast?"
But before the group gets into this question they discuss hilariously bad 1950 Sci-Fi Films. Enjoy.... with some Ben & Jerry's.

Lightning has struck... Andrew, Zach, & Hollow FINALLY found a day that worked to record another episode! And this one starts off with one of their favorite segments to date: "Worst Sidekicks Ever". Seriously hilarious... you don't want to miss this one. The LR trio then takes a deep dive into the call of discipleship with this listener's question:
- "What does it look like today to fulfill the call to make disciples amongst the nations in today's culture?"
- "P.S. Do you think there is a difference between discipleship and mentoring?"

Yes, we know... we've missed you too. Where do we even begin? It's 2022?! You're probably listening to the Encanto soundtrack. The LA Rams won the Super Bowl?! Twinkies taste better frozen?! Okay... maybe that last one is unnecessary information (but seriously you should go try it... if you're not like on a diet or something). Anyways I'll stop. Just listen to this episode, it'll be better than reading this caption!
