A Rabbi and a Reverend walk into a podcast... and talk REAL about religion. We are Rabbi Eric Linder and Reverend Joel Tolbert. We became colleagues and friends in 2012 when we both found ourselves serving congregations near Athens, GA. We were founding members of an area Interfaith group that grew from seven to over sixty clergy. Today, we live in different states but come together here to discuss faith, God, religion, entertainment, and tech. We’ll dive into the social, cultural, political, and topical too. We have quick minds, sharp tongues, and good hearts, and we hope you enjoy being a part of these conversations!

Loyalty Cards

Sunday Jul 04, 2021

This week, Joel and Eric talk about loyalty, and discuss some texts and modern day examples that are theologically problematic, but important nonetheless.

Eric brings up the 5th commandment (“Honor your father and mother” as well as the story of Pinchas (Numbers 25:10).

Joel shares some powerful parables of Jesus regarding familial loyalty, and also brings up the connections between loyalty, obedience, and love.
