In this episode Pastor Brown and Thomas look at the set-up to Judas’ betrayal, and it turns out that there’s more there than meets the eye. The following verses have them asking, “what is love?” Next, they examine Jesus’ promise that the disciples can not come with him, and whether there is or is not a rooster involved in the crowing Jesus promises will follow Peter’s denial. Lastly, they take up Jesus’ claim to be the “way, the truth, and the life.”

In the “Backwards Life” segment, Thomas asks Pastor to approach the subject of not being greedy, rather content with what you have.

Then they get into Jesus’ use of object lessons with the disciples, and what washing feet and changing diapers have in common. Lastly: what is Judas up to?

In the “Backwards Life” segment, the subject of discussion is taking things away from your neighbor such that his life is lessened. Or, more briefly: stealing.

Coming back from what amounts to an unannounced hiatus, Thomas and Pastor Brown (who recorded this episode just prior to Lent) jump into Jesus’ road to his passion and death. He gets back to Bethany (a town coming under increased scrutiny now that Lazarus has been raised), gets some pre-embalming (much to Judas’ ire), and then pulls a Solomon on his way into Jerusalem.

For the Inquisition, Thomas asks Pastor 2 questions: A) Are there really levels to heaven? And B) How do we understand the doctrine of Inspiration, and how should we use it in the context of apologetics?

In this episode, Pastor and Thomas continue with Jesus’ epic discourse, and look into what Jesus means in saying that the Jews’ father is the devil. The irony steps up a notch when they brush aside Jesus’ words and accuse him of having a demon and being in cahoots with the Samaritans. Jesus tops of the discourse with an unambiguous claim to deity, then escapes the mob that gathers to stone him for blasphemy. Then we turn to the healing of a man born blind, which has all sorts of ramifications to unpack.

In the Inquisition, Pastor asks Thomas about the so-called “war on Christmas” and other such issues. Then Thomas asks Pastor about the Christian approach to money and its uses.
