Ep 635 | Responding to Chris Pratt’s Religion Comments

Today we're taking a rest from the intensity of political news to talk about some lighter topics and offer some words of encouragement to the many of us who are feeling burned out by current events. We start off talking about attending a recent Backstreet Boys concert and our thoughts on their newer, not-so-classic songs. We then transition into a message of positivity for the Christian who is overwhelmed by the seemingly never-ending stream of bad news coming from all directions. Lastly, we talk about the disappointment that is Chris Pratt distancing himself from his faith in a recent interview with Men's Health. --- Timecodes: (0:00) Introduction (0:55) Allie recounts going to her first Backstreet Boys concert (12:46) Some encouragement — this is a spiritual battle happening right now!
