The Sinner and The Saint
She said what?! One was raised on a church pew in the south, the other on the wrong side of the tracks. Together this unlikely duo hashes out the complexities and quandaries of life while slapping a little Jesus on it. Does her sweet tea need a little vodka or is it the other way around?

#229 Cracking Whips, Flipping Tables & Welcoming Others

Jesus has two temple clearings in the Gospels.
John 2:13-17 (earlier in His ministry) and
Mark 21:12-14 - Jesus went straight to the Temple and threw out everyone who had set up shop, buying and selling. He kicked over the tables of loan sharks and the stalls of dove merchants. He quoted this text:
My house was designated a house of prayer;
You have made it a hangout for thieves.
Now there was room for the blind and crippled to get in. They came to Jesus and he healed them.
So how do we create an atmosphere that's welcoming to others.
