Welcome back T&J fam! On today’s podcast, Josh and Marty take a deeper look into the psychological world by debating whether narcissism is healthier than learned helplessness. The two discuss environmental influences to determine self-worth and self-esteem. This leads them to tease out the concept of individuality in the realm of identity and self-belief. Or is everything we believe about ourselves determined by our relationships and environmental factors? Also, how does God influence this logic and philosophy? Listen in to find out!

We are back T&J fam! And y’all are in for a treat. We explain the tension we tried to create during the last show and begin identifying who Jesus and the trinity are this week. We go back to the beginning … almost. This week we look at the Arian Controversy that led to the Council of Nicea and ultimately the Nicean Creed, which we still use today (Shout out Rich Mullins and Third Day). We look at the biblical information about the Godhead and begin to paint the picture of our faith. We hope you enjoy!
Welcome back T&J fam! Welcome to another fun filled episode of your favorite podcast. As most people this week we start off the episode talking about the Super Bowl and the infamous Travis Kelce incident. After debating the severity of Travis' outburst we look at dramatic situations in the Bible and try to determine what Christian Karen would say. We try to redeem the whole thing by discussing the importance of connection, assuming the best, and not judging what we do not know. Enjoy!
Welcome back everyone for another episode of T&J! Forgive us for not recording last week; Josh was a little under the weather. We are back at it full force this week with a discussion on "other gods".

Marty then updates on some unfortunately problems at his house. Following this ridiculousness, we take on a listener question about other gods and whether there could be other gods in the spiritual realm that is not God or the heavenly beings mentioned in the Bible. If you like this listener question and have one yourself, please send it to us at large23onsweetwheat@yahoo.com. Enjoy the show!
