Ep 893 | Jase’s Dumb ‘Dating Ministry’ Idea Led Him to Missy & Willie Made a Kid Cry on the Bus

Jase misses church on purpose for a not-so-leisurely activity but takes it as a bad omen when he witnesses a man walking a pig on a leash. Phil is gifted a set of handmade fishing lures for display only, but Jase finds it upsetting to leave them on a shelf and not a fishing rod. The guys discuss the Greek meaning of the word “predestined” as it’s used by Paul, and Zach and Jase differ slightly on their emphasis of collective and personal atonement as described in Ephesians. In this episode: Ephesians 1, verses 1-14, 22-23; Acts 2, verses 30-39; Romans 13, verse 8; Matthew 22, verse 3; Psalm 72, verse 17 “Unashamed” Episode 905 is sponsored by:  https://preborn.com/unashamed — SAVE babies with your tax-deductible donation today! https://ICouldBeWrongButIDoubtIt.com/ — Get your copy of Phil’s best-selling new book now! -- Learn more about your ad choices.

Phil reveals why the lesson for his “Unashamed” Bible class at church never changes and encourages Christians old and new in their faith to find and use their spiritual gifts. Jase finds treasure in the podcast studio parking lot, which is interesting considering it’s in the middle of the woods! The guys put forth their own educated opinions on the overarching theme of Ephesians and how we’ve all contributed to the environment of sin that we live in. Jase realizes that no one can ever grasp every truth of the Bible since it was written by God, but our understanding of it can evolve as we grow and learn.  In this episode: Ephesians 1, verse 17; Ephesians 2, verses 19-22; Romans 7, verses 18-24; 2 Corinthians 5, verses 1-15; Genesis 1, verse 28; Exodus 19, verses 4-6 “Unashamed” Episode 904 is sponsored by:  http://BoxofAwesome.com — Get a FREE mystery gift in your first Bespoke Post monthly shipment using promo code PHIL. https://unashamedmerch.com — Save 10% on your hoodies, mugs, T-shirts, and more with code UNASHAMED10 at checkout. https://ICouldBeWrongButIDoubtIt.com/ — Get your copy of Phil’s best-selling new book now! -- Learn more about your ad choices.

Jase is surprised to find himself loving a recent George Clooney-directed movie, which leads Al to point out some of the dangerous, if useful, skills that Phil taught his boys when they were young.

Phil feels as if he’s attending a wedding every week with so many of his progeny getting married.

Phil recalls going shoeless for multiple years back in his pre-Jesus days, and his sons think that’s one of the things that contributed to his living legend.
