Ep. 216: Ben Sasse, The Desecration of Man, & The Value of Church Tradition

It’s been a minute. Longer than planned which J.R. explains. Anyway, we pick right back up where we left off about our injured house chicken and life and culture as a Christian family. We discuss church tradition, identifying heresy, edifying listens from Ben Sasse and Carl Trueman and the differences our kids have when it comes to academics.
