Jimmy and Joe go back to basics and talk theology. What is theology? Why is it important? How do we get it wrong?  Where should we begin to grow in theology? Is it possible to be “theologically obese?” The guys open the mailbag and talk about alcohol, abstinence, and seminary life. Plus, Jimmy can't remember how old his children are, and confesses a man crush on “The Denzel.”Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Joe and Jimmy throw up the mics to talk about 1 John 2:2 to discuss Christ’s propitiation, and the meaning of “world” in that passage. How does John use the word, and what are the theological implications of interpreting “world” in an incorrect way? Plus, shirts off and fist bumps.
