    Ever found yourself caught between a laugh and a lesson on a roller coaster? That's exactly where we kick things off on our latest episode, navigating through the thrills of the Mall of America and onto the streets of Washington D.C. We weave tales of city planning and its effect on community, from the monumental design of our nation's capital to the beige conformity of Irvine, California. Join us as we recount the odd connection between personal pride and the places we hail from, even when they show up in the most unexpected of places, like on a snug amusement park ride.

    We then shift gears to a more reflective discussion on the balancing act church leaders face, finding that sweet spot between confidence and humility. Listen in as we dissect the sometimes competitive nature of pastoring and the art of captivating an audience without a screen in sight. And when it comes to dining, it's not always about the price tag—Blake and Sarah remind us that it's the simple gestures, like a warm soft pretzel at a brewery, that can leave an indelible mark on our dining experiences and, believe it or not, our spiritual journeys. So, pull up a chair, and let's chat about how those little acts of kindness at the dinner table can mean even more than the main course.
