Ep. 202 | Rodeo, Tradition, and What It Means to Love America (Guest: Caleb DeJarnatt)

Happy America 250! On this episode, Abigail is joined by her brother Caleb DeJarnatt (who drinks multiple Dr. Peppers throughout the course of this episode) for a Fourth of July conversation about America's 250th birthday, their hometown rodeo, and why traditions like this one shape our love for our community and our country.

This one is a little more lighthearted, but carries a real point. Caleb and Abigail talk through the creation mandate, what it looks like to celebrate a country without putting our hope in it, and why traditions (not trends) are what hold families and communities together. They land on a simple challenge: think about what you love about where you live, and how you can steward that well while pointing people back to Jesus.
