Because You Have To Have Friends
Episode 196 – Friendship
This week, AJ and Brandon are joined by Walther, because, if you're going to discuss friendship, you need to have a friend to discuss it with. Making friends isn't always easy, but it's definitely important.
Episode 195 – Doubting Thomas
AJ had something of a revelation this weekend listening to the Gospel about St. Thomas and his doubts about Christ's resurrection, so he and Brandon talk about the struggle with doubt and St. Thomas' incredible response once he realized the truth.

Episode 193 – Eden
This week, as we prepare for Holy Week and Easter, AJ and Brandon talk about the tendency to view Christ's work as restoring us to Eden and just how short that sells what Jesus accomplished.
