Salt and Light

The Fulkersons head east to Ponchatoula, Louisiana, which boasts the only life-sized statue of GK Chesterton AND is the strawberry capital of the US AND has a town alligator who lives in the town square. Why did they travel 7 hours in horrible traffic you ask? Well, for the GK Chesterton conference of course! In this episode they discuss "What's Wrong with the World". This is both a title of one of Chesterton's books and also the theme of this year's conference. If you don't know who Chesterton is and/ or want some insight into the conference and this particular book AND how exceptionally relevant this topic is right now, check out this episode now!

Do you ever find yourself jaded by Bible stories you've heard repeatedly? We tackle one story in this episode that most of us probably know by heart- Peter's denial of Jesus. We break down each account in each of the four Gospels, assess four similarites- fire, women, servants/guards, and "followed at a distance," and offer explanations of what they mean for the spiritual life and state of the soul. We leave you with some practical advice about what to do with this information and how to grow closer to Christ. We even dabble in some analytical psychology...

Are you annoyed by kids in church? Are you the parent of those children in church and feel the glares of those who your kids are annoying? When we come together to worship in Church, we are surrounded by dozens of people who are different than we- in age, gender, race, financial status, etc., and yet we are all facing the same altar and worshipping the same God. 52% of Catholics leave the Catholic Church, and only 11% return according to a Pew Research study. There are many more statistics confirming this conclusion and many more which illuminate additional alarming statistics regarding the rising number of people who classify themselves as "no religious affiliation" aka the "nones". There are waves of evangelism efforts to help the "nones" return to the love of God, which is essential of course, but in this podcast, Chuck and Annie will argue that not losing people in the first place is the key. How do we do that? We listen to Jesus' words in the Gosp...

In a "tapestry moment", this week's episode is all about perseverance. Last week my sister ran the Woodlands Marathon- all 26.2 miles of it- and qualified for the Boston Marathon! There are about 8-stages a runner experiences while running a marathon; ironcially, it's very similar to the spiritual life. In His Divine Providence, God provides. Throughout both the Old and New Testaments, we are given Wisdom in persevering in the spiritual life. Join Chuck and Annie in this episode of the Salt and Light podcast, and learn a little Hebrew on the journey! We hope you love this episode and find it especially helpful at this time of Lent.
