https://www.jeromydeibler.com/
Did you know misunderstandings, caffeine, and glasses could be interwoven into a stimulating conversation? That's exactly what happened when Jeremy, Drew, and JLo, gathered for this episode of "The Gospel According to Jeremy". We laughed, we argued - but guess what? It's all part of our charm and camaraderie that keeps us together.
As we journeyed deeper, we found ourselves drawn to the balancing act that life often entails - personal desires versus societal expectations, the pursuit of control and its effects on our faith, and the often overlooked personal experiences in religious conversations. We marveled at how taboo mechanisms play out in our lives and especially in parenting. As parents, the narrative we share with our children holds immense weight, shaping their perceptions, influencing their choices. Drew, our esteemed guest, added a layer of depth to our discussion around faith journeys, bringing to light the importance of personal experiences in understanding God.
In a surprising twist, we found ourselves contemplating a live tour of "The Gospel According to Jeremy". We even envisioned a cozy living room setting with Grammy and Jeremy, though we suspect our kids would be less enthusiastic. Despite their lack of interest in our books, we all agreed that it was another good week in our podcast journey. So, if you're ready for a roller-coaster of emotions, deep reflections, and of course, a good dose of humor, this episode is just the ticket.Tue, 28 Nov 2023 - 6 - World Chaos and Tension
