In the final letter to the Church of Corinth, it proves that Paul isn't rubber and the congregation isn't glue. Rumors, insults, hurt feelings, and godly jealousy are abundant. Meanwhile, we're trying to figure out what really happened because the vibes of these chapters are more weird than tears.

The originator of hot takes continues his letter to the church at Corinth with prose befitting a first-year English major by throwing spaghetti against the wall and espousing the need for waterproof tents during hard, tough, and bad times. Our planned business ventures grow with the addition of Coins for Christ as we read the prosperity gospel and prepare for upcoming "mean-andring".

Uncertain trumpets, the hierarchy of spiritual gifts, misogynistic interpretations, and the recollection of auditorial combat await you in the final chapters of 1 Corinthians.

Paul's letter to the church in Corinth continues with explorations of our true identity, the origins of cancel culture, the transitive properties of prostitution.

We're celebrating our 300th episode and the end of Romans with our first sober episode! In which we learn more about Christ-ordained boasting, sharing holy hugs, and discover another woman named in Paul's writings. There's also a not so short quiz at the end. How do you think we did?

Roman's nears its end with us theorizing about Paul's love interest and wondering how many of his letters the recipients understood. Hopefully, they picked up on Paul's message about respecting the dietary choices of others and glorifying God with food.

Paul's blog post continues with a call back to Abraham, the father of circumcision, and teachings that have been adopted (and perhaps perverted) by the modern church. After a brief trip to Graceland, we return to the topic of real tools and Jase's upcoming class, The Fleshy Member - see you there!

Paul is on assignment, writing letters (or are they epistles) to the baby Christians of the day. Encouraging them to find another hole and to be a Jew on the inside too. It feels like we're prepping for SAT while listening to an insufferable windbag talk to other believers. It's cool, it's fine.

A very chatty Paul is joined by his fellowship as he travels, rerouting his plans due to plots against him. After boring a boy to what appeared to be death, Paul cuddles him back to life.

Paul sets up shop with tent-makers, Priscilla and Aquila, for a bit before renewing head-shaving vows and traveling again. The apostles are growing their ranks MLM style (we could be making things up), and at some point books are burned, and clothes come off.
