An excellent example to the church on theological conversation. The trio discuss important doctrine, as well as leading the listeners in a journey through sound biblical comprehension. I greatly appreciate their sense for knowing to be serious when they should be serious and lighthearted when they should be lighthearted.

Theologically sound, entertainingly fun
