The Church published a fantastic sermon by Mr. Rod McNair that he gave a couple of years ago here in Charlotte titled “What Cause Are You Fighting For?” that is really helpful in helping us find perspective. He emphasized that we live in a world in which people are not only rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic while the ship is going down—they are fighting over who owns the chairs.

Greetings! We’re excited to kick off this podcast! While we have a few demo recordings under our belt, this is the first official podcast to go public. It’s a weird one—mainly us talking about the podcast and how we hope to serve you with it. We also invite you to send us your thoughts, and we’d love to hear from you. We’re working on a form or something so you can give us that feedback—until then, you can email either of us using the super-secret ministerial email address format. (Not actually secret, though still super: first initial + last name + [at] + lcg.org. Forgive the weird formula: I’m trying to prevent the bots from spamming us…) We hope you enjoy this different-but-sincere first podcast outing and are looking forward to future episodes!
Every once in a while, when I asked my mom a question about the Bible, she would think for a minute, and give me an answer that sort of made sense to me, but not really. I would respond with another question, and she would go “Hmmmm” for a second, before saying, “I’m not sure, honestly. We might have to ask a minister about that one.”
That used to startle me—and frustrate me a little, too. “What?! Mom doesn’t even know?! But she’s supposed to be the Bible genius! She went to Ambassador College! They were supposed to teach her everything! What madness is this?!”
