Joe and Jimmy talk about pastors, money, and influence in light of the ongoing James MacDonald and Harvest Bible Chapel scandal. Before they get into it all they attempt to give some context and offer an apology. In this episode the guys consider how pastors have access to money in the church, and ask, “What principles should govern a minister’s access to and use of church funds?” What about the practice of giving gifts to others or benevolence? Aside from professional and company policies, how do we decide whether we should accept or a reject a gift from someone?Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Joe is away on vacation this week, but the guys banked a bunch of episodes so the party keeps rolling. In this episode the JoFo walk through the fourth commandment, and will probably frustrate a good percentage of the listeners with their perspective on the sabbath. Are the guys “sabbatarian?” Do they take exception to the 1689 Confession on this issue? What does sabbath keeping look like for them? Plus, Jimmy is plagued with green stickers, and Jared Wilson is an “anti-notite.” For more on the sabbath be sure to check out episode XX where the guys talk more about their perspective.  Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
