  • Right? Right?

    I enjoy this podcast but today's message was marred by Ms. Vayntrub's constant use of interrogatives in the relaying of information. This was akin to listening to people who say "You know?" after their thoughts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inaugurated by Touch (Third Sunday of Easter)
Q: What do you make of Jesus saying, okay, witness by touching me and letting himself be touched?
The interaction emphasizes the reciprocal nature of touch and witness, suggesting that the incarnation involves God being embraced as much as it involves God embracing humanity.
Lord of the Sabbath (Second Sunday after Pentecost)
Q: What do you think of this statement Jesus makes about the son of man being Lord of the Sabbath?
It's a unique interpretation suggesting that the Son of Man holds interpretive authority over Sabbath observance, rather than advocating for lawlessness.
Accused of Insanity (Third Sunday after Pentecost)
Q: What does it mean to blaspheme against the Holy Spirit? What is Jesus talking about here, you think?
He's discussing the serious nature of attributing evil motives to God's work and emphasizing the deep implications of such beliefs.
I Am the Bread of Life (Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost)
Q: Do you read this then as a Eucharistic text?
Yes, I think this passage relates to the idea of communion and the sustenance provided by Christ.
I Am the Bread of Life (Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost)
Q: How do you make sense of that?
I find it interesting that bread, as a essential component, is a fundamental theme and metaphor in Christ's ministry.
