Mercy For Me, But Not For Thee — Jonah 4|Malachi 1 (CJ080)

“Thou art a God of mercy — now kill me!”

Pastor Eric Brown and Thomas Lemke read about Jonah’s frustrations at the fate of the Ninevites — not to mention his shade! Then, we begin our next book.

In the Inquisition, Pastor Brown discloses his favorite of the Gospel accounts, and why. Thomas answers a question about the perils of dredging up “dirty laundry” on ideological opponents.

Spit — Jonah 3 (CJ079)

The tongue has great power — but that gag reflex, though!

Pastor Eric Brown and Thomas Lemke read about Jonah’s return to dry land, and his successful preaching gig in Nineveh. Too successful, for the prophet’s taste.

Speaking of taste (in a sense Ezekiel would have been familiar with), in this episode we debut a new segment dubbed: Stupid Heretical Internet Theology. In this installment we take on “The Shepherd’s Code,” a “Bible Diet.”

Don’t Let Me Drown — Jonah 2 (CJ078)

Man overboard! Jonah finds God again as he face hits the water, and he prays what is (in Tom’s estimation) some of the most beautiful verse in the whole Bible.

Come along with your hosts, Pastor Eric Brown and Thomas Lemke, as we crack wise about the second — and somewhat more smelly — leg of the voyage to Nineveh.

In the third segment, the Inquisition, Thomas answers a question about “call-out culture” online, and Pastor Brown answers a question about pulling the life-support plug.

Cast Away — Jonah 1 (CJ077)

Count It All Joy is back, and we’re diving right in to… well, the belly of the whale, as it were.

Come along with your hosts, Pastor Eric Brown and Thomas Lemke, as we read about God graciously sending His word to an unrighteous people. Much to Jonah’s chagrin.

In the third segment, the Inquisition, Thomas answers a question about recent developments in the practice of apologetics, and Pastor Brown answers a question about conformance in worship practices.
