Pontificating Pastors

It's a new season and this is the one where we catch up after a busy January, where we discuss our super bowl festivities, and where we wonder about Jesus' apparent silence about the evils of Rome. It's also the one where we think about some of the simple things we are taught as kids and how we often conveniently disregard those very same teachings as adults. Ultimately it is the one where we wonder if the things we teach our kids (and the things Jesus seems to teach) are "practical" in the "real world."
