This week, we’re talking about 7 things the Church should stop doing (and, of course, why they should go ahead and keep doing some of them). Also, we’re playing a fresh round of “Is This Love?”, a game where you speculate whether the presented situation is an act of love or something else entirely. Finally, advice on Dear Live From The Path, including a lady who was too friendly with a man at the pub and another lady who can’t seem to land a volunteering gig.

If you have any feedback for us, hit up the Live From The Path complaint line at (515)-517-0085, call or text.
