    Our Pod Is An Awesome Pod

    A podcast dedicated to the CD section of your local Christian bookstore. Jonathan Rawson and Luke Schwartz do a deep dive into Christian records of the past and present from a “secular” perspective. These reviews often lead to much bigger conversations about everything from politics to where they would eat after church when they were young.
